Chad Silverstein argues that knowing what you want and why you want it is enough to act decisively, even when others don't understand. Your reasons keep you whole and focused when challenged, whether you're paying off debt, selling a company, or ending a relationship.

Think that when you have that type of clarity, you can make decisions. And sometimes those decisions, many times those decisions are not going to make sense to other people around you. And that's. That's okay. It is okay. It doesn't have to. What it has to do is it has to make you feel like you're whole. It has to make you feel like you are going to be able to live with whatever decision that you made and not worry so much about the approval or, you know, maybe not having the approval of someone that you're friends with, that you respect, that you're doing business with, that guides you. But at the end of the day, you know, you got to live with it. So whatever your decision might be, pay off the debt, sell the company, you know, break up that relationship, start a new one, just have a good why for why you're doing what you're doing. At least you'll be believable. Doesn't mean you're going to be right, but it means that you know, you know why you're doing it. And that will help carry you, but it will also give you a laser focus during the tougher times, times when you're being challenged and questioned why you're doing what you're doing. You can feel good because you know why and you don't have to bend to other people's opinions. And you know, you can reject, you know, them making you feel a certain way when all they're doing is yapping away at it. So I think, I think just have a clear end game, see what you're doing, know what you're doing and know why you're doing it, and you'll be able to be able to withstand any type of test.
