You don't often see the words "Discipline" and "Dreaming" in the same sentence. But I believe this duality is critically important to win in both business and life.

Having a process to enable the creative process will help liberate the creativity that lives within every organization and individual.

Of course, you're talking about a farm girl who stood in the fields, dreaming, years ago, wishing she was that kind of person.

Dorothy UhnakSometimes you meet a really nice guy, but no matter how you try, you can't seem to make yourself want him. But that's not nearly as bad as when you meet the wrong guy, and you can't make yourself not want him. You feel hollow inside, just waiting and wishing and dreaming.
