When I think of mountain climbers, I think of people pursuing adventures and challenging themselves to achieve a new level of greatness or accomplishment.

Take a look at your own progress towards the summits of your professional and personal goals.

Exercise:

What planning is required and what people or gear will you need to achieve the satisfaction of reaching the top of your most important life summits?
