March 2, 2015 - Are your actions inspired? Or are your actions merely required by others?

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?

July 8, 2013 - Are you getting things done? Are you getting things done or merely doing things? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment each day or a sense of wondering how you are ever going to get all that you need to do completed?

April 1, 2013 - Are you fooling yourself? Are you fooling yourself into believing that you must have all the answers or know all the options before proceeding with a particular initiative or project you have underway? When you get caught up in a need to have all the answers or options first, you can easily get stuck in a quagmire of never having all that you need to proceed. To truly make progress, your best opportunities come from taking action on what you know right now and therefore, what...
