Red flags

When you see red flags in a prospect or a potential project, call them out.

You have 2 options:

• Saying yes and move forward. Knowing what you’re trading off —and what you’re giving up: being at your best, or…
• Saying no and move forward. Knowing that when you’re at your best, you can help best.

Letting go of what seems like a big or interesting opportunity is hard (and easier said than done), YET think of this: if you get to say no, you get to be in charge of your next step.

Seeing red flags is good.

Identifying them and calling them out is better.

Deciding on how to move when you see them, even better.

The choice is yours.
