FOCUS: Learn how to avoid enemies of change to realize success

By Anton Gunn, republished with permission | Recently, I have been focused on success. Particularly, I am focused on the changes you need to make to achieve success in your life.

Change is the operative word today. Change is a constant in our lives. Nothing in our lives stays the same. Everything changes. Some changes happen on their own. Other changes happen when we decide to make them happen.

I want you to be aware of the enemies of change. Yes, that’s right. I want you to be aware of the nemeses of the improvements you want to make in your life.

You must avoid them at all cost because they can stifle your success. You must learn how to defend and defeat them.

Here they are.

BRACK: Doing the right thing for South Carolina

Commentary by Andy Brack, editor and publisher | With statewide elections a month away, let’s think seriously about leadership.

What kind of leaders do we want in the Palmetto State? Do we want leaders who will continue to do what they’ve been doing for years? If so, how’s that working out? South Carolina continues to be at the wrong end of too many lists.

FOCUS: Seven leadership lessons from Black Panther

By Anton Gunn, special to Statehouse Report | I don’t know about you, but I love the movies. I especially love Marvel Comics’ movies. If you haven’t heard by now, Marvel has released one of the most successful movies in the history of its movie franchise, Black Panther.

I saw Black Panther over the weekend (three times). There was so much to “marvel” about in this movie. The story, the action, the characters, the scenery and the leadership lessons were remarkable. Yes, the leadership lessons. I believe you can find leadership lessons in every experience, especially in the movies.

So even if you haven’t seen it, I want to offer a spoiler-free list of the top Seven Leadership Lessons I gained from the movie Black Panther.
