What should you do when you’re focused on the present, and it’s not going the way you expected? 

You could look towards the future. If you’ve got money tied up in a company that’s failing, you might want to withdraw it, and invest it in a start-up. If it’s a good business, that may pay off down the line. 

Alternatively, you may want to just put it into another established company. You don’t have to pivot towards the future.

Sometimes, the right move is to simply seek to improve your present circumstances.
