"We were not meant to be a Self-Help society. To truly improve the self and achieve success you must learn to become part of a group, then part of your comminuty, then become a contributing part of humanity.
No one can survive for very long in a vacuum. Since the time of the caveman, if you concentrated only on the "Self" you would not have survived. Every day consisted of finding shelter, hunting, making clothing, building fire, gathering roots and berries, and finding water.
To do all of this alone is overwhelming. It is only when you use the resources of the group, clan, tribe, or CORE, can you excel and begin to accomplish great things in your life."
Through my website and book "Finish What You Start" I'm available for training, speaking, coaching, and mentoring.
I'm here to provide a community of building foundations for success for everyone. Presently the success rate is 20%. Let's flip that statistic and create a society where over 80% are successful in every area of their lives.
