Listen to this

I'm reading a new book entitiled "MOJO: How to get it, How to keep it, How to get it back if you lose it" (Marshall Goldsmith). It's pretty good so far. A paragraph really caught my eye, especially since we've been talking about it here in the blog. They surveyed 250,000 people with this question: "Does anyone ever really change?" The conclusion is unequivocal. "Very few people achieve positive, lasting change without ongoing follow-up."

For me this contest and our blogosphere have been great resources to encourage and challenge. Each of us needs to figure out a way to be accountable outside of ourselves, at least until the change has become permanent.
