I’m still a work in progress.  Especially in time management. I’m working on getting better organized so I can be more effective and trying out various options to see what will “stick” for me. I tend to start strong, but lose steam and need to figure out how to better maintain momentum.  I think I’ll print this and hang it in my office to remind me that success is built inch-by-inch, everyday.
