2010 is marching right along.   Are you keeping pace?

If you are like many of us, there’s at least one thing you’ve been planning or wanting or hoping or meaning to do  – but  you haven’t even started it.   And if you are like many of us, you’re beating yourself up about it and doing a number on morale and productivity.

If all of that is true about you, stop for a few minutes and congratulate yourself for the things you HAVE done.
