Through this blog post entitled “Musing on Personal Growth”, my plan is to share with you, statements I have heard, that have helped and inspired me along my journey. I share them in hopes that they may inspire you to take action on something you have been putting off, or to think more deeply about a pressing concern. You may not embrace each statement; however, I challenge you to at least give it some thought. Enjoy. {Note: These are statements and or quotes I have heard or read over time; and have internalized them. I cannot credit anyone to any specific person.}

Speaking: Communication is the “key” to your professional and personal success.

Goals: Write it down! When you commit something to writing, commitment to achievement naturally follows.
