Midweek Mini: Put Out the Match, Not the Bushfire

Hope is not a strategy. When you see that little flare of trouble in your team, process, or system, and you think "I hope that dies out on its own" - that's the moment to act. Three weeks later when you're fighting a bushfire, you'll wish you'd dealt with the match.

The Core Principle

Small conversations feel awkward because you're bringing up something that seems minor. But issues escalate quickly:

  • Employee giving you a little bit of tone
  • Meeting disagreement that wasn't handled well
  • Process starting to break down
  • Relationship tension beginning to show

Why We Avoid the Match

  • Feels too small to address
  • Might make things weird
  • Hope it resolves itself
  • Don't want to seem petty
  • Busy with bigger fires
