Determination

The 100 Day Challenge, Day 71: Determination is a word that comes up a lot in coaching.  At least it does in my corner of the coaching world, as the clients I work with are really up to some big changes, challenges, projects and re-inventions.  Whenever the word change enters the picture, determination has to … Continued
