For The Interested - FTI #347: Boundaries

Our ability to succeed is directly related to our ability to set boundaries.

​Here are the boundaries I've set.

They've had a huge impact on my work and life.

Now, on to this week's ideas...

My Final Words Of The Week

When my 4-month-old daughter goes to sleep, she doesn't just go right to sleep.

Shocker, I know.

There's a process of gradual steps she goes through before eventually drifting off.

There's a lesson there for all of us.

The result you want rarely comes without a process of gradual steps toward it first.

Have an interesting week!

Josh
