We all have dreams and goals and bucket list items, but for many of us, we never seem to realize these goals. We can list off every reason why we couldn't possibly see those things come to fruition. We can faithfully recite every barrier, roadblock, and reason why we aren't good enough, and why the time isn't right, and why we just couldn't possibly make it happen.

I am tired of living this way... running on the hamster wheel, only to realize that every night when I head to bed that I haven't made any forward progress.
First, I want to say something about leadership. I am a little tired of leadership blogs, leadership talks, leadership podcasts, leadership goals, leadership books, etc. What I am interested is people who are willing to make a difference in whatever sphere they are in, and from whatever seat they are currently sitting in. I believe leadership has been miscast and misdiagnosed and whoever is the boss, but the truth is, a leader is anyone, anywhere who is taking a stand, making a change, and making an impact. If you are willing to stand up, speak out and step up, then you are a leader. If you put your money where your mouth is, you are a leader, regardless of where you fit on the organizational chart. If you are working selflessly for the common good, you are a leader, and I want to thank you for realizing that although it may be difficult to transform the whole world, it is definitely possible for you to transform YOUR world.
So if you fit into this category then I would like to submit something for your consideration...
