NOBODY IS KEEPING Up
The truth that resides in the air surrounding everyone in this room is that no one is keeping up:
No one feels great about the daily information deluge.
No one is sure how to manage everythingcompeting for one’s time and attention.
No one wants to admit to not having all theanswers or to continually feeling overwhelmed,inadequate, and exhausted. You are not alone!
