OPS: Optimal Penetration Speed

My first blush with massive turbulence was on an airplane flying over Orlando.

The plane dropped so fast that a stewardess dropped a beverage on a sleeping man. She had accidentally spilt his drink. 

He abruptly woke up and yelled at her until he figured out what happened.

Recently Melissa taught me that OPS or Optimal Penetration Speed is the perfect speed at which turbulence is minimized.

It's like Goldilocks-speed, not too fast and not too slow.  

OPS is vital for...

• Paying off debt
• Communication
• Saving money
• Building a business
• Buying real-estate
• Raising children
• Becoming a leader

Varying your speed is what OPS is about. It's choosing the right speed for the airflow and pressure to work with and not against a plane.

Fast. Slow. Pause. Go.

Adjust your speed so turbulence becomes a boon, not a burden.
