Obstacles are things that a person sees when he takes his eyes off the goal. Mahatma Gandhi

In our world of constant change, in spite of the seemingly endless list of challenges we all face daily, there remains a community of accomplished men and women who, regardless of where they currently are on their journey or their life situation, are not content to rest on their laurels.

Whatever life throws at them they bravely continue to reach out, looking for more. Saying yes when the majority says no.

Always up to the challenge, determined to stay relevant, they are willing to do the work, to be the very best  of themselves and make sure they catch the next train before it pulls out of the station.

In the COVID-19 era, for some, that may mean sharpening their skills and stepping up their current game. For others, it could well involve reimagining themselves and setting out in a new direction.

The workplace is no longer the way it used to be. The very idea of work is changing. There is no safe middle ground.

Life is complicated. Living well doesn’t just happen. You need character, courage, alertness, determination and unwavering belief in yourself. Those attitudes and values have seen you through tough times before – and they will this time. too.
