Beyond our limits

 "Limitations force you to find the essence of what you want to say." -- Julie Taymor 

It's the rare nonprofit that believes they have enough resources to accomplish all they want to do. Yet the most successful don't waste their time whining about what they don't have. They find ways to make what they do have bigger.

They drill down to the essential, then use the powerful forces of creativity, imagination and strategy to make every moment and every effort count.

Julie Taymor is celebrated for the way she brings things to life within the limitations of the stage. What a great time of year to take her approach, to reflect on your aspirations for the year to come, and figure out how you can make your limitations work for you instead of letting them stop you in your tracks.
