Indiana, Monday is here. But not just any Monday - it's the 2nd week of February. How has your January been? My February has been EPIC. * Twitter Chat - Feb 9th - 3pm - Join me and Insightly for a Twitter Chat About Productivity - Please follow #INSIGHTLYCHAT on Twitter * I don't follow football and know pretty much nothing about it. But I now know more about Tom Brady.... For those of you who feel down... Feel dejected... Feel that all is lost... Think of Tom Brady (forget teams right now), but think of the principle. Your game of business is never over until you're dead. In most cases you can always recover, pivot, do better, get back into the game and succeed if you a) don't give up b) get a business coach c) are strategic d) course correcting. Never ever give up. It's now the 2nd week of February. Let's crush February. Share this with those who need encouragement SXSW coming up in March.
