You can start over again! Do not even think about quitting now! It is easy to replay in your mind how things did not work, how much you lost, what you are going through, how angry you are. There is no amount of conversation or magic that is going to wipe the slate clean. You are wasting valuable time and energy that could be used to regain a new normal and start another version of your life. Even though you are hurt and you may be feeling down ~ stop kicking yourself! Face what has happened. Make the decision to start over again.

In life, friendships change, divorces happen., people move on and others die. Money and jobs will come and go. Live long enough and your health and body will change. It goes with the territory of being human. The fact that you are still here gives you an advantage. Do not look back. Look straight ahead!! Decide to use all of your knowledge, skills, experiences and your life lessons from your mistakes, defeats and setbacks, to start over again. Life changes. You may not have the same life as before, but you can still enjoy your life You have GREATNESS within you!

Jim Collins on the building blocks of greatness

Collins, author of management classics like ‘Built to Last’ and ‘Good to Great’, speaks about great companies, managing in a networked world and leadership
What makes companies great? And how do you define greatness? These are questions that management author Jim Collins has explored for nearly 25 years now. In 1994, Collins shot to superstardom with Built to Last, a book he co-authored with Jerry Porras. The book, which aimed to identify the characteristics of visionary companies by focusing on 18 of them, went on to become a management classic.
From there on, Collins authored several other books on the theme of greatness.
Much as his work has created a profound impact on companies, it has also come in for some scathing criticism. Partly because some of the original 18 visionary companies Collins and Porras identified have slipped badly over the years, and people have questioned the relevance of the principles he outlined.
In this very rare interview, Collins talks about the significance of his work today and how the shift from organizations to networks will impact leadership.

Failure is not a destination. It is an invitation to unforeseen victories. Someone once said that a person who has never failed, has never done anything. Make failure your vitamin. When you fall, especially when it hurts, be willing to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back in the game. You are not competing against anyone, not even yourself. Life is not a sprint; it is a marathon. Are you in it to win it?

Reject your fears. Fear is just an emotion, nothing more. It can not hurt you, but it can stop you from achieving your goals if you let it. Face your fears head on, instead. Embrace each moment that you feel you “blew it.” Remember, it is just a memory. The past only exists in your mind. You have the absolute power to release it. There is a fundamental difference between failure and temporary defeat. Be willing to fail your way to success! You have not failed. You have merely graduated into a brand new opportunity to manifest the Greatness within you!
