I don't know if it's because I'm getting older or if its still the repercussions of the Recession of 2008. But in almost every conversation I get caught up in. People endlessly say, "I once was." It's as if they are more proud of where they once stood more than where they are going. We've lost our forward motion abilities. How do we take the "Was" out of our presentation? Can we get back to breaking out a fair share of dreams? To do that requires one step.
