  • What if Your Biggest Success is Behind You?

    Tonight while talking with a client, I questioned her goal to earn $3-5 Million dollars in the next few years. What was driving her to that number? She mentioned growing up poor, and how she had always felt that a lot of money in the bank would allay the fear that quiet threat might cause.
