Finishing well is a sign of maturity

Most people knows more than they actually do. So often times, the best encouragement is "just do it" and "just get started". At least you have a chance to succeed - otherwise it's just another "thought" wasted.

Recently I have a few unique opportunties to observe a few startups including my own. Inevitably sailing across the ocean, we will encounter rough seas and unexpected weathers. I have seen too many incidents of too many people giving up. Or started something with good intention but never finish it. What they missed out is the best lessons and rewards lie in persistence. Ability to preseve through extreme hardship not only builds character but is a sign pointing to a major break through coming.

Finish it and move on. Open a book and finish to the last page. Start a club for one year then finish it with one year. You can change the pace if things gets bored or don't go well, accelerate it to finish. You will learn much and gain much!

If "startup" provides an opportunity toward success, finishing well would be the secret sauce of reaping the rewards of success. Remember to finish what you started!
