Today – pick a problem…it could be personal or professional… any type will do. But this time, instead of seeking a solution outside (books, blogs, friends, mentors, etc…) spend an hour or two thinking things through.

How could you be the cause of it?

What would you do if your life depended on solving it today and you couldn’t ask anyone for advice?

More often than not – you’ll find your answer.

When my mentor finally arrived – I told him the problem… I told him what I had figured out – the cause and the solution… And he said “I couldn’t agree with you more.” And we spent the rest of the night swapping stories. Alright, that’s all I’ve got for today.
