A useful risk management acronym that could be applied to how we choose to live - be aware of and open to possibility, choose a path well practicing respect for others and care for self!

What are you waiting for?

Successful people don't end up where they want to be by acident. They have a plan and an approach to developing a mindset of success. Most importantly, they don’t just think about change, they ACT! They sieze the moment! If you want a different result, you have to do something different. 

What are you waiting for?

The Pencil - a metaphor!

The pencil maker took the pencil aside, just before putting it into the box.  "There are five things you need to know before I send you out into the world," he said. "Always remember these five things, and you'll be a great pencil.

One: You are capable of many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in someone's hand.

Two: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but you'll need it to become a better pencil.

Three: You have the ability to correct the mistakes you make.

Four: The most important part of you will always be what's inside.

And Five: On every surface where you are used, regardless of its condition, you must leave your mark."

The pencil understood and promised to remember.

Your Present Circumstances

Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go, they merely determine where you start.
