So I wasn’t shocked the other day when my Winning Well co-author leveraged a practice straight out of chapter 20, thanking me for something I’d done to promote our Winning Well mission. And then, hearkening back to chapter 7 (accountability), I laughed and said, “If I were really a good co-author I would have done __.” (it really doesn’t matter what this is, as I will here pull a Scarlett Ohara , and be sure to wo
