EXPLORE | Being Realistic About Change
You’ll find from reading a few issues of Wisdom In All Things that I’m more into a general consideration of improvement than I am the ‘movement that is self-improvement.’ In other words, we need to identify and set aside the hype and over-confidence in the human spirit. By design we are limited, and we also need to be aware of that. Of course, understanding that balance is what the email and blog are all about. But make no mistake, we are to get off our rear-ends, close our mouths and report for duty. We will be the agent through which change occurs in our lives. We do have a lot to do with it.

Not really any secrets here in the full article linked below, so I’ll save you the longer read by highlighting the 2 things that may in fact help you become a little leaner in your approach to living wisely:
