Take a Success Inventory

Personal Development

Friend, we spend so much of our lives staring at the mountain ahead of us that we forget to stop, turn around, and look at the incredible climb we have already made.

Every so often, it is vital (not just nice, but vital) to take a success inventory. This is not about ego or gloating. It is about reminding yourself of a fundamental truth: you are someone who gets things done.

Become the CEO of Your Career

Personal Development

Early on in my professional journey, I received a piece of advice that changed everything: Treat your professional life as if you were a business owner.
