However, this is the good type of letting people down that doesn't actually cause negative results for them. Soon after, they will notice the upward movement created by your changes, and they will come back around in a more supportive fashion. <abbr><em>Armen Shirvanians last blog post..<a href="http://www.timelessinformation.com/2008/11/leading-by-example-guest-post/" rel="nofollow">Leading By Example - Guest Post</a></abbr></em> Quitting items and behaviors that don’t serve a functional purpose means letting certain individuals down.

It's really about being the best of who we are. And for that, what I want to clarify in this post, is really that we need to quit something to excel in something that means more to us. Yup, I guess it's more of excellence rather that competition. Regards, Robert Hi Evan, thanks for the comment. When we follow our journey,hierarchy is not that important anymore.

Being second or one hundredth can be just fine I think. Being first isn't terribly important. We may fail because we didn't know enough when we started out (and how can you, realistically, anyway?). Persevering on something hopeless is just silly. (As Seth said earlier fail quick and often.) The three questions seem excellent. Thanks for pointing to them. <abbr><em>Evans last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Wellbeingandhealthnet/~3/407813513/" rel="nofollow">What Do You Say?</a></abbr></em> I think Seth exaggerates a bit (exaggeration from a marketing guru – there’s a new concept!).
