This year has not been great for achieving my goals. I feel as if my goals got derailed between January and July. Now I need to get them back on track. It’s been a messy six months that required me to take a close look at where I’ve been focusing my attention and time, and …
Have you been waiting to “have” something that you believe will allow you to “do” something so you can “be” something different? For example, maybe you want to have wealth so you can travel and be happy. Guess what? You’ve got it backward. First, you need to be happy. Then you can have what you …
