The sword of Damocles

Shakespeare talked about it in Henry IV.

John F. Kennedy used in in his speeches.

So many of my clients are living with this mythical sword suspended magically above their head, ready to drop at any moment. It's probablly because their goals are so big, so important, so much at stake. 

You only get one of these swords if you are playing a big game for big stakes.


Wikipedia says: "The sword of Damocles is frequently used in allusion to this tale, epitomizing the imminent and ever-present peril faced by those in positions of power. More generally, it is used to denote the sense of foreboding engendered by a precarious situation"

Ever since I've been exploring producing a tool to help people sleep, I've been hearing from clients, friends, and people I simply meet, about this sword.

They may not have read Shakespeare, but you can see the sword gleaming between their words.

The wonderful irony of it all is that the sword rarely falls, and if it does, the person below it is so well prepared for whatever consequences or scenarios that occur, that the outcome is never as bad as what was keeping them up at night, staring at their ceiling.

I guess worry does have it's function.
