you must have a sense of urgency to make the most of this limited time

I remember being 14 years old and thinking about how much time I had…to do what with – I wasn’t sure – but time was on my side. Today is different of course. There is more runway behind me than in front of me and things that were terribly important in my rear view, aren’tContinue reading “you must have a sense of urgency to make the most of this limited time”

As a business owner do you need support to grow when things fall apart?

We see that one person in the forefront – the owner, the developer, the creator and we think – they’ve created success by themselves…but if we look closely: no one makes it on their own.

In fact it seems that most people consider it normal to be unhappy at work. Writer and Speaker Luc Reid observes, “The idea seems to be that you haveContinue reading “Why Do You Go to Work?”

Why Comparisons NEVER Put Us in a Great Frame of Mind!

  Yesterday I found myself feeling down. I started to bitch to myself about what I was doing with my life.

I guess I couldContinue reading “Why Comparisons NEVER Put Us in a Great Frame of Mind!”
