In my post earlier this week titled, “Where are your goals?”, I talked about the importance of location in where you keep your goals as well as the actual significance of the goals themselves.

I haven’t written a new article in almost five days. Why? It’s not because I’ve been too busy. I’ve had a lot going on, but I’ve had multiple opportunities to sit down and write.

Let’s take the struggling drug addict for example. It’s common to begin self-loathing after a relapse, but doing so isn’t … [Read more…]
