SEPTEMBER
The shell must break before the bird can fly.
~ Alfred Tennyson
I’m at a glass ceiling.
The job is boring. They have not had a raise in five years at this company.
I feel that life is passing me by.
~Worker Living in GEORGIA
We need to breakthrough.
It’s not about the glass ceilings that companies or organizations erect; but the ones that we erect in our own minds.
It starts with the broken record of negative thoughts that swirl around in our minds about our situation, about the possibilities, about our dashed dreams, about the useless degree, about the missed opportunities, about the lack of ideas, about the ideas that didn’t work….the breakthrough starts with your thoughts.
Think Differently Today.

P.S.
If you’re reading this and in the U.S. more than likely you have a day OFF of work. OFF for Labor Day. So, make a good use of this day. How do you do that? Ask yourself this one question and just wait for the answer to emerge…
If I could do ANYTHING with my LABOR (physical and mental effort to create goods and services) what would it be?
NOW…once the answer emerges (and it will, if you keep asking that question)…MOVE towards it…do something to create that good or service…JUST START and then keep going…(BTW…what is the point of all of your experiences, jobs, books you’ve read, places you’ve been, skills you’ve developed, things you know….if…you are not going to DO something with it all…that MAYBE only YOU can do? What is the point? It might take a LONG time for things to materialize, but it will NEVER happen if you don’t START. Create SOMETHING with your labor that you are proud of and that improves you and your corner of the world. )
