What comes first: Motivation or Action?

Some people choose to live; most people choose to criticize & complain.

Do you default to figuring things out alone?

Do you have a coach or mentor but aren’t sure if you’re getting the most out of that relationship (or contributing as much as you could)?

Do your goals feel limited or small?

Is it hard for you to ask for help?

We are not born winners or losers. We are born choosers.

Do you tend to waste time? Struggle with a sense of urgency? Never seem to have enough time in the day? This is for you.

Do you tend to give up easily?

Do you believe that your abilities and potential are fixed?

This is for you.

True maturity is recognizing that you can’t solve all your problems on your own.

How you define “winning” is everything.
