Recently I read a review of a book called “Surviving Uncertainty by Lane Wallace.

“Here’s an old riddle: There were five frogs on a log. Four decided to jump off. How many were left?…..Five. Because there is a difference between deciding and doing. Most people are like those frogs. When the time comes to take a big step, they never quite get from deciding to doing. Something always seems to hold them back. If it’s time for your big step and you need a push, this book will give you all the stimulus you need. It will invigorate your intentions and translate them to action.”

Name of the reviewer is Mark L. Feldman, Author, Five Frogs on a Log: A CEO’s Field Guide to Mergers, Acquisitions and Gut Wrenching Change.

In these recessionary times, the advice make sense. Now is the time to take that leap, take the action you have been planning on for years, don’t put it off any further…kind of the Nike tag line-”Just do it“.

So, consider this blog post as a call to action, time to welcome some dissonance in life, getting out of that comfort zone and taking the big leap…once again wishing you a Happy New Year!!!

This is from an unknown author, stumbled across it somewhere and immediately found it resonating with my life and my work.

“Eternal God, who can make all things new, we humbly bring before you the record of our lives in the year now ended.

Where life has been good to us, do not let us take more of the credit than we deserve.

Where we have been good to others, help us to forget all thoughts of honor and reward.

Where we have fallen short, forgive us, and free us from brooding over what is past.
Cleanse us by your mercy, guide us by your truth, fill us with your love, and lead us forward in your all-conquering hope

All this we pray in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Amen”

Happy New Year dear reader, I wish you a wonderful year ahead!!!
