As a public librarian I love 16! I just found this site this week and am really enjoying it. Lots of stuff I can use to make my library more of a “powerhouse of learning”. Kudos for knowing your library card number!!

Chris,

I’m not sure when you sleep. But after reading this post, I’m convinced that’s never. Thank-you for your continued excellent insight. We can whine and cry about it, or we can do something about it. Thanks, I will be sending my partners, clients and collaborators this post!

Cheers

Great food for thought! We just had a large (1/3 of the workforce) “downsizing” at work and if we could have ditched a few of the excuses, we might still be the same size. One of the themes that ties many excuses together is the personal life getting in the way of success. You don’t have to work 80 hours a week to succeed, but you will and fail if you don’t work in a focused and creative way.

Chris – this is the roundhouse kick to the face I needed.

Two big secrets I try to live my life by is “Leave no regrets” and “You will only get limitations if you aks for them” – hmmm that could be a post itself.

Why hold back, why wait? I guess it can be scary – I struggle everyday not to give up. Its easier to stop and wallow, its more difficult to keep things going.

Re-reading your list you only needed to list #6 – that sais it all!
