As you cycle through all of the reasons (a.k.a. excuses) you have for not making a change again today, doesn’t get you off the hook either. The changes you want to make in your life, that feeling of not amounting too much, the irritation in your gut that you should be further along than you are isn’t going to go away.

Success isn’t a guarantee, but failure, struggle, hardships, obstacles, and a thousand excuses to quit are guaranteed. So what are you going to do?

Break out your pen, find some time alone and get real with yourself. Where are you at? What’s one habit holding you back that you can begin to let atrophy? Let’s start there and get to work? Your full potential is waiting!
