We need to retreat in order to advance!



I enjoy doing things on my own however, I have found that some of the big stuff requires more than me!

This weekend I am preparing to travel south in order to spend time with a dozen folks that are willing to plan for the future.  Not an easy task!

Big ideas, past issues, leadership, membership, survival ship all get thrown about.

It all starts out with a big meal (and a few libations) speeches are made and testimonies are prevalent.  Perhaps this year we might write some of it down or  not!

The next day we get down to business...

Retreating to the Outer Banks allows us to back away from day to day and focus on a year.  The return on investment is…

            We understand next steps and how they will be measured
            Our message is tell-able and share-able
            Our budget matches our intentions
        Priceless!  

If you are having trouble advancing perhaps it’s time to retreat!  This world does not allow anyone a rocket ride!  It’s all accomplished with “baby steps.” 

Five steps forward /Five steps back/Five steps forward/Five steps back/Five steps forward/41/2 steps back----hooray!

Enjoy each day and understand your path; however take it one step at a time!
