Beware of…

Negativity.

Procrastination.

Hype.

Greed.

Doubt.

Knowing what to avoid is as important as knowing what to chase.

Our list of excuses is long. And creative. And of course includes the five universal hall-of-fame excuses.

The opportunity hidden in constraint is embracing and overcoming the lack of:

  • time
  • money
  • resources
  • education
  • experience

Is it a midlife crisis or a midlife celebration?

Up to each of us to individually decide.

Our decision to change or not change changes everything.

Everything.

This is, in reality, simply another obstacle in our quest to do something great.

What does the new year have in store for us? Are we already resigned to defeat, or chomping at the bit for the opportunity to begin another year?

The twin demons of fear and compliance. They can kill our dreams slowly, one busy day after another.

Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.
– Bertrand Russell

Living with regret is worse than living with failure.
