Don't just announce your goals to the room! That's the quickest way to kill your goal. They need to have a plan of action first. If you get off, don't give up. Perfectionism is also a killer of goals. Just readjust your plan of action. #YMH5   Reach out to Phil Larson: phil@thestoryshop.tv @Phil_Larson thestoryshop.tv/ymh5 YMH5 on Facebook Art by: http://bit.ly/ymh5art

Triggers happen whether we like it or not. The goal is to recognize that we are triggered in the present moment. We can learn from our poor reactions of the past to better be aware and in control of our actions in the present. #YMH5   Reach out to Phil Larson: phil@thestoryshop.tv PhilLarson.net @Phil_Larson thestoryshop.tv/ymh5 thestoryshop.tv/podcast YMH5 on Facebook Art by: http://bit.ly/ymh5ar...
