"Your eyes will adjust to the level of deficiency in your life" - Iyanla Vanzant. Could substitute confidence, efforts, networking, and passion, in place of "life." Vanzant was suggesting during her live presentation that many have become accustomed to the circumstances surrounding their existence. In a word -- comfortable.

What's funny is how the "comfortable" then look upon those that aspire as being arrogant, conceded or lucky. Lucky – makes me smile. The result is always much greater than that of luck’s ability to produce. Not convinced? Read The Dip by Seth Godin. In 80 pages you'll learn what it means to be the best in the world (pages 10-12), The Dip defined (pages 16-19), the contrast between quitting and failing (page 63), and questions to ask before quitting (pages 66-71).

Eye adjustment - no reservations needed. We grown folks ... right? We know development walks lockstep with adversity. Breach your contract with comfort. Stop complaining and start committing. Your gene pool holds DNA too great to number. At least one resembles your winning ticket. It’s Monday – find it – let’s keep it moving!
