The confrontation waiting to happen

It's not between you and your boss, your critics, your editor, your competition, your spouse or some other outsider.

The essential confrontation, of course, is with yourself.

You are your own biggest critic.

And your own biggest competitor.

Now that it's easier than ever to pick yourself, the question is, "why haven't you?"

And now that it's easier to ignore the competition and become a category of one, the question is the same.

Our instinct is to externalize the forces that are holding us back, but in fact, that's not the problem, is it?
