We often pay more importance to transitions than to what comes after.

A new job, wedding, or starting a new business are big transitional events but the real work starts after these events are over.

Getting a job takes effort but once you are in, you need to do the work to keep and excel at it.

Wedding is a commitment that brings two people together but to turn it into a loving marriage these people need to invest themselves emotionally over a lifetime.

You take initiative and invest money to start a business but it is nothing when compared to the long grind that is needed to make the business work.

To do well after the transitional event is to be ready for the long journey afterward that awaits you.

If you don’t have the steam to go on after the big event then why take the hassle to start.
