Inspiration:
"In all the eternity of time, in this infinitely expanding universe, you have for a fact, this one moment. Why then would you want to blow it? Why would you not want to believe in yourself? Why would you want to go through your job, your life, being too soft and fearing failure, afraid to assert yourself, running from conflict, taking abuse from others, playing the victim, not pursuing your dreams, not believing in yourself, not demonstrating the courage to make things happen? Why would you want to operate under the shadow of others instead of creating your own shadow? This is your moment. Life is an adventure. It’s yours to seize. Your career clock is ticking. Now go make a bigger difference." Neal Whitten from the Neal Whitten Group, as spoken in PMI Webinar 'The Wonderful World of Power Skills: Achieving Exceptional Performance.'
