#Goal Setting

Research shows that the poorest performers don't set goals; they just slog through their work.  Mediocre performers set goals that are general and are often focused on simply achieving a good outcome - get the new project proposal written.  The best performers set goals that are not about the outcome but about the process of reaching the outcome.

New Years Resolutions

You may or may not subscribe to New Years Resolutions.  Irregardless, here's two things to consider as we prepare for the new year: 1) if you want to give something up, make it worrying, and, 2) the rate race only has a party of one...you.  So, slow down.  Take your time - because it's your most precious gift; enjoy the journey.  Happy New Year.  Cheers!

Create Memories

Call your parents, so when the day comes that you can't, you'll have that many more memories to look back on.

Learning vs. Education

Education is what other people do to you.  Learning is what you do to yourself.
