Sometimes all that you need is right in front of you. But too often, it’s so easy to think how lucky other people are, or to believe that if only I did this or if only I did that, things would be better.

A long-time friend and mentor said something to me the other day that really resonated. In life and in business, you must have two sets of goals: Move Away Goals and Move Toward Goals. In thinking about what these two goals meant, I really spent some time digging in to understand what they meant to me. Here are a few of my thoughts: Move Away Goals are what keep you moving away from your comfort zone. The problem is, if you get too far out, then you can burn out. Why? Because you’re not always going to achieve that goal in the […]
