"Good is the Enemy of Great"

Why is it so easy to settle for good?

The Law of Process

The Law of Process is a developmental model that applies to every process from learning to tie your shoes to building sustained greatness. Continuous development involves moving through successive quadrants on a continuous progression of growth.  

In the terms of this model, when we settle for good, we have crossed The Bridge of Complacency and Apathy and progressed to a comfort zone where they don't know what they don't know about their potential for improvement.  Breaking out of that state occurs by crossing the bridge of discovery.  Both the bridges of Complacence and Discovery are one-way bridges.  Once crossed, there is no regression or turning back.

Who do you have that can help to lead you out of the state of apathy and guide you across the bridges of discovery, change and repetition?  It all begins when you don't know what you don't know.
