Discipline is a commitment to the most important person in the world – YOU. The commitment is to do what you have to do, even when you don’t want to do it. The “Bob Time” discipline is dedicating at least one hour of your most productive time to the most important person in the world.
What is your most productive time of your day? Is it early morning, day or night?

Most people who have a 401K or an IRA have little idea of where their money is invested. When you ask them, “Where’s your retirement money?” they reply, “At the bank” or “With my broker.” No wonder so many people are financially unprepared for retirement.
The fact is that if you want to be financially secure in your Golden Years, you must take control of your investments…today! Handing over your money to a broker and hoping someone else will look out for you is a recipe for disaster. Imagine saving and investing for 40+ plus years, only to find out at age 65 or 70 that you don’t have enough money to retire. It’s a common scenario that happens every day.

Do you feel like you are “behind the curve” on social media? Every professional I know is concerned that they may not be able to maintain their position.
Each day there is more in printed media and on-line assuring us that we are quickly getting passed by if we’re not up on the latest changes. The dire warnings continue on and on.
Did you get used to the internet and go back to “business as usual”?

Failure to prepare for the future spells certain death for businesses and industries in which they function. The same analogies apply to personal lives. Greater business awareness and heightened self awareness are compatible and part of a holistic journey of growth. I conduct think tanks and mentor business principals on all their options and the big ideas. I lay the groundwork so they can best utilize the niche consultants. I support all of the others and educate business owners on the best contexts to make consultants most effective.

I first heard of Janus when I was in the tenth grade during a welcome back address from our vice principal after the Christmas break. Considered the god of gates and doors, this Roman god lent his name to the month of January and had a rather unusual appearance. He was depicted with a double-faced head, each looking in opposite directions. It is believed that he was depicted in this fashion because of the notion that gates and doors look in two directions. In this way one of his faces was able to look backwards while the other looked forward; representing Janus’ contemplation of the happenings of the old year while looking forward to the new one.
