Stones = time

An interactive parable with action plan

Keys to success

My 3 ”So Whats” – what I’m going to take away in implement:

1) Make Conscious Decisions of where to focus my time
2) Remember I have a Finite amount of time (stones) each day and in a lifetime. It is truly the most limited and valuable resource
3) Make more of my own luck by pushing beyond my comfort zone to learn form new people and experiences.
