You can be hindered from making progress if you ignore your problems. Could you be letting little challenges grow into huge obstacles by not dealing with them?

“Winners are not afraid of losing, but losers are. Failure is part of the process of success. People who avoid failure also avoid success.” — Robert Kiyosaki “It’s more important to grow your income than cut your expenses. It’s more important to grow your spirit than cut your dreams.” — Robert Kiyosaki “If you’ve failed, that means you’re doing something. If you’re doing something you have a chance.” — Robert Kiyosaki
