So you have some fresh New Year’s resolutions. Now what?
We’ve all heard about how gym memberships and attendance both soar in January. Likewise, we also know that attendance also begins to wane by February (perhaps we even know this from experience!) We have actual statistics from...
I’ve noticed that a common theme has emerged among many of the people I’ve been talking with recently (too many people in my mind!) The theme?
Many people don’t know what their dreams are and they are at a complete loss as to how to figure them out.
