The First Choice!
The First Choice! Often we allow Life to make our first choice of the day for us! It happens one day, then the next, then the next and then . . . well it becomes habitual! It’s almost like we get up in the morning and allow life to give us instructions like this: “OK, […]
One Never Knows!
One Never Knows! In the blink of an eye! At the drop of a hat! That’s exactly how long it can take for life to change completely! Instantly! No warnings! Boom! Just like that! We’ve all had those moments in life when, from out of nowhere, life beans us with a curve ball that doesn’t […]
We Are The Ones!
Waiting! Don’t you just love waiting? We wait in line; we wait for a table; we wait for a compliment; we wait for a raise; we wait for a sign; we wait for the “right time;” we wait for a kiss; we wait for a hug; we wait for a raise; we wait . . […]

I would like to share with you a Solution to That Problem! We all have at least one problem staring us in the face right now! If not, just hang around and one will arrive with your name on it! More often than not it’s a problem about which we know a great deal! Why […]
That Was Then! This Is Now! What's Next?
Have you ever found yourself allowing too much of what has happened in your past set up camp in the middle of your present? I know I have! I often struggle to remain focused on being in the moment; concentrating on what is in front of me; paying attention to all around me; determining my […]
Working and Dreaming . . . Dreaming and Working
Working and Dreaming . . . Dreaming and Working go hand in hand. One without the other often proves fruitless! If you are like I am, you are often bombarded by folks encouraging you to DREAM about what you want to do, become, have, accomplish, manifest in your life! These folks, and I happen to […]
Response-Ability Leadership
I have been thinking about components that help create responsible leadership – leadership characterized by integrity and attractiveness.
