A man a plan a canal – Panama!

You are intelligent, so it can be assumed that the plan is a good solid plan. It can be assumed that you thought out the next several steps. It can be assumed the goal you are moving your boat towards is an important part of the big picture.

It is understandable why you would be upset that one of the crew members is rowing against the team. Trying to go off on his or her own direction.

Your boat will eventually get to where you are going, but to maximize efficiency, you need all the crew members rowing in the same direction.

When one member consistently questions the method of getting to a goal, and suggests several alternative routes, that crew member is becoming counterproductive.

It could be that this person is actually working against you. it could be that they are afraid of success. It could be as simple as they feel that every avenue should be explored before taking a step forward.

The trouble is, if you scan the entire ocean to find the safest path, you will still be sitting at the docks decades from now. Safe is fine, but safe is stagnant.

You should consider your ship to be a shark. If it is not moving forward, it will die. Anything that gets in the way of forward progress becomes a threat to the life of your ship and is therefore something that needs to be eliminated.
