I'm off to a slow start with this one. I find his books a little on the challenging side for me but very insightful.
I did a face lift of the somewhat weekly email I send out.
I've been wanting to spruce it up for a while and I finally got around to it.

Stay focused on the journey and what you'll learn during it.
Thats what matters.

I've been reminded on the importance of being patient. A person can only do so much. I've learned that having this new goal has made me excited on overcoming these new obstacles. I've been...
