Every day cant be great! A sobering but true point. Some context for you. I’m currently penning an article about our launch of Access All Areas on DHorizons last week. Nobody died or anything.

How to change the world
It’s not only about you
Do you ever have ideas, but find excuses to not execute on them? Despite launching and collaborating on many World Changing ideas, I’m very guilty of this.
