March 20 – Are you limiting yourself? Are you allowing your thinking to limit what you are doing or attempting to achieve? Are you second-guessing yourself out of doubt or uncertainty of what may be possible? Are you imposing limits or holding yourself back from what you ultimately desire? Are you keeping people from knowing what you are doing or trying to do? Have you ever considered that these limits you are placing on yourself are merely based upon assumptions you are making? Stop limiting...

Nov 30, 2015 - Is it just around the corner? Do you feel that you are so close to what you are trying to achieve that you can taste it, yet something seems to keep you from getting there completely? OR have you put a great deal of effort into achieving something, yet you are beginning to feel that it is never going to happen, and so you are close to giving up? Whether you think you are close or further away from your goal, your breakthrough could literally be just around the corner, if you...

July 20, 2015 - Are you psyching yourself out? Are you thinking of all of the things that could go wrong versus what could go right? Do you find yourself making excuses or rationalizing why now is not a good time to "go for it"? Are you questioning your next move or your ability to take the next necessary steps? As you are striving toward a goal and you begin stepping into the unknown, a wave of uncertainty can take over your thinking that can cause you to doubt where you are headed or hesitate...

March 9, 2015 - Do you believe it can be done? Is there a particular goal you are striving for that you believe is out of reach, but you would still like to see it happen anyway? What you believe is as important as what you conceive. If you want something to happen, believing that it can be done is paramount to it actually occurring. Instead of thinking something is out of your reach, think instead of how you can continue to get ever so closer to making it your reality. Take an MM&I Moment...

Jan 5, 2015 - Feeling overburdened? As you launch into this New Year, are you feeling the weight of the world from what you hope to accomplish? Are you excited, yet more intimidated than inspired by what you want to achieve? Could it be that you are thinking more about what could go wrong or is challenging you than what can propel you towards your dreams? Are your reasons for achieving these desires more about what you believe is not currently right than what is going right? When you view the...

May 19, 2014 - Are you purposely productive? Or do you find yourself doing whatever is demanded upon you without considering its relevance or importance in what you are trying to achieve? It is one thing to be busy with activities and tasks and entirely another thing to be intently focused on working diligently toward a clear destination. A clearly defined purpose and reasons for achieving your goals help you prioritize and focus. You may be feeling some frustration because, while you are quite...

Sept 16, 2013 - Is something slightly out of reach? Do you feel that you are very close to a breakthrough, or are close to achieving a particular goal or initiative, but just cannot get there and are uncertain why? Does it seem as though just when you think you have done what is necessary, the requirements or expectations change, making you feel further away instead of closer to where you want to be? Sometimes our perception of what it takes or what is blocking us is the real issue to be...

Jan 28, 2013 - What do you need to overcome to succeed? What do you believe are your obstacles right now to your success? What do you think is holding you back from moving forward or progressing in the way that you would like to go? As I stated in the introduction to Section 2 in my book, Me, Myself & Inc, “Real or imagined, an excuse or reality, imposed or predisposed – whatever is keeping you from where you want to be personally or professionally is all a matter of what you believe or...

Nov 15, 2010 – Are you close, yet so far? Do you feel as though you are so very close to achieving what you have been working so hard toward realizing, and yet it is still slightly beyond reach? Do you sometimes feel as though you will always be just ever so close and yet still so far? Is your patience beginning to wear a bit thin as a result? Instead of allowing yourself to obsess over finally reaching that pinnacle milestone, how about taking a look back with pride at what you have achieved...

Oct 4, 2010 – Are your values driving your actions? Have you considered how your values affect your ability to reach your goals? Often times when you are struggling or finding roadblocks towards reaching your goals, one or more of your values are in conflict or not being honored. Take an MM&I Moment to review your personal values. List any values you currently consider important to who you are and how these values are not being honored by others or in conflict with what you are currently...
