Ready Fire Aim

I had the pleasure of listening to Earl Bakken (co-founder of Medtronic) speak today at our district convocation.  He has a wonderful sense of humor and an inspiring story to tell of how it all began for him tracing back to his childhood.
He says that the "secret" to his success has been the philosophy of "Ready, Fire, Aim."  This struck a chord with me because it seems to be what is taking shape as we are planning (more like revolutionizing) everything from our space to our roles and responsibilities as teachers.  I think we need to jump in with both feet, give it a go, and refine our decisions later based on the degree of success or failure.  
I think this idea will help us make quicker decisions.
