The second of the guiding principles is start where you are. Now, that might sound simple, start where you are. Where else are you going to start from? But have you ever been in an organization where they're looking and saying, oh, we want to be here, we want to do this, we'd like to get this far, our aim is to achieve this? Well, that's great, having the targets. Nobody's criticizing that. But where are we actually gonna start from? And part of start where you are is to say, let's look, let's take an assessment of where we are at this point and work forward from that point. Because that's when we're going to identify not only what we're able to achieve, what skills, what attributes we've got, what resources we've got, but we can also look back and say, what resources have we got in store? What resources have we got in stock? Is, and are there anything we can utilize, we can re-use, we can recycle, if you like? So let's not throw everything out and start completely from new. Let's actually say, let's start from where we are.
