Audacity. As it turns out, the world responds when you put yourself out there. When you give it a real shot for the thing you want—not only in small steps—but in big, bold, smart moves that take a bit of chutzpah.08 Jan 2025 14:50 +0000at://did:plc:rt63fdblblfojuol3im2nojv/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfafxqhsos2chttps://bsky.app/profile/drgurner.bsky.social/post/3lf77eqrlp22cAre you focused on the "right" things to really push growth this year?

Everyone will focus on habits, and that's the wrong focus...those new habits will drop quickly. Don't change what you do - Change who you are. If you do that, new actions will follow & stick.
