No excuses! The personal stuff.

by

When I decided to share the No Excuses! exercise it was more because I was feeling a pull to do it again than anything else. And, since Im all about bringing others into the proverbial fray, I decided to see if I could lure a few of you into joining me. Still I was surprised how many of you clicked on the photo above to make it bigger & emailed asking about it/commenting on how few excuses ... Continue Reading
