Sometimes you’re in the middle of a busy period.
No time to spare for waste-of-time commitments.
You notice a meeting in your diary that you cannot imagine helping with your current challenges.
You’re tempted to cancel.
Don’t do it.
That meeting can perhaps help you in an unexpected way.
New investor, new product, new customer, who knows?
In any case, you made a commitment.
Stick to your commitments.
Take the meeting.
