4 Questions To Ask To Ensure You Are Always Innovating

I'm a big fan of the magazine,  Experience Life .  Particularly the monthly  Perspective  column by  Bahram Akradi , the founder and CEO of  Life Time Fitness . Akradi tackled  self-reflection  in a recent issue of the publication.  He firmly believes the business model that if you aren't innovating you are dying.  And, to innovate, you have to regularly fine-tune both your business and your life.

Thanks Bahram for this great advice.  And, thanks for a great a great business, health, fitness and quality-of-life  magazine .
