When your vision is greater than the time you have to achieve it, it's time to examine your approach to your productivity and how you can reach the goals you've set for yourself. Productivity can be a tricky beast. Feeling productive and actually being productive are not always the same thing.

Change is inevitable. Without it, we would all become stagnant. In order to grow, professionally and personally, we must have a growth mindset, be willing to accept ambiguity and embrace change. Ambiguous situations cause discomfort because of the unknown or uncertain outcome. However, the difference between success and failure lies in your ability to deal with uncertainty.
