Ever so often, I like to share some of the quotes given me by the Mastery Foundation--for whom I lead "Making a Difference Workshops" for years, and soon again, I hope.
These are what I've chosen for this blog.
Don't just 'read' them.
Ponder them.
Spend some time with them.
Let them move and challenge and shape you.
Happy Pondering!!!
