The difference between scope and quality can be a little confusing for new project managers. But it shouldn’t have to be. In this book, I discuss the differences—and relationships—between these two fundamental elements of a project’s golden triangle.

It's Your Life is about you; your vision, your goals, your results. Your results are your choice, but how do you make that choice when you don't know who you really are? That's probably the most important question you need to answer. See we've been conditioned to live with our sensory factors…but what about the phenomenal power and hidden world within us? What about all the people that created something from nothing? You're creating your results every second of the day – you just have to d...
