In Pursuit of Self-Reliance
From the An Influential Project Manager Blog
by Colin Gautrey
Today, more than ever, a project manager needs to be an influencer.
The purpose of this blog is to stimulate your journey towards greater influence. With influence, you can overcome the roadblocks thrown in your way, overcome opposition, align stakeholders and, enjoy your role even more.
However, since I know you are busy, the posts here will be short (about a minute), thought provoking and also drive you towards action.
Feel free to connect with me, ask me questions, and share what's good here.

Free yourself from the influence of external events, people and things.
Free yourself from those with hidden agendas and obscure pitches, those who play your emotions and your past.
Once you free your mind and heart, even from your past, then you can decide and be strong and independent – you can call the shots, in your life.
And, with this innate quality and strength, you can engage in the world around you with compassion, spirit, drive and enthusiasm.
Because deep sown, you know you’re in control. You will have self-reliance.
No man is an island, yet without inner strength you become a slave.

I often say: it is the events of our life that shape us ...
But it is our choices that define us
