Remove all limiting beliefs and excuses for

                    achieving success.
                       If it is to be, it’s up to me.

                             Perpetuating a


                 Problem-Solving Culture










                 WHENAWELL-REGARDED COMPANY PRESIDENT was asked to
                 explain the secret of his success, he said, “I remove any excuses
                 my employees might have for not performing well by giving them
                 everything they need to perform to the best of their abilities. I
                 don’t want to be anyone’s excuse for not fulfi lling responsibili-
                 ties. Without excuses, those who don’t have the desire to succeed
                 will leave.”
                    Working within a problem-solving culture becomes increas-
                 ingly more important as our work responsibilities swell at a quicker
                 rate than our time to accomplish the resulting tasks. Knowing
                 your team members can count on each other to focus on issues
