Ideas - that's what's at stake here. Ideas to do better, rise higher, be different, show strength. THINK about the companies that were innovative this year - this decade. How did they do it? Did they wait for the right moment? Did they pine afer great PR or mention on some wildly popular website? Or, did they just do it? Did they rise each day and hit the ground running...not in an attempt to keep ahead of the crowd, but in a passionate attempt to get to the goal they'd set for themselves?

Ok, the DMV (dept of motor vehicles) might keep you waiting. Your bank might keep you waiting. Your clients might even keep you waiting. But, that's manageable time. Be active while waiting. Prepare for the wait by setting daily goals to accomplish things; little things, big things- phone calls, emails, blog posts, twitter posts, and most importantly, the things that you've identified as necessary to move your business forward. (making phone calls? cleaning out your filing cabinet? rearranging your office? all of that counts)

Forward - towards achievement. Forward - towards success. Forward - towards the results that will make 2010 a pivotal year for you. Think Big.

I know you can do it. I know you can stop waiting for tomorrow or next week. Stop waiting for the unknown and take charge. Do it today.
