Sometime today, a well-meaning person is going to detour you from your dreams.  They are going to solve a problem for them.  Sure, you want to help.  But, what about your problems? You have enough monkey's on your back already without taking on those of others.  Right? Before you say, "Yes," consider how much it may take you off track.  It's okay to say, "No thanks." The only person protecting your goals, dreams, and daily action is YOU.  Stay focused on YOUR plan.
