Remember when we…

We were around 16 and “knew it all”? I know, I sure did, but it was mostly about what things were, and not about how things worked…big difference. Being knowledgeable about what things are, is all good, but it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Knowing how things work, comes over time and with experience,… Read more »

We’ve all had…

Some rough patches in our lives, and looking in our past we have seen some pretty big pot holes and detours we’ve had to take to get us to where we are now. And since things in our past, were once in our future, we can only expect some more rough patches and detours to… Read more »

Occasionally, we are too critical…

Of what we create…or of ourselves, taking our attention off the “whole picture”. My Grandmother used to cook the best meals I think I have ever eaten – ever. Turkey with the best gravy…Pot roast…ham for Easter…you know, the old fashioned kind with the pork cracklings still on it. But it never failed…about 5-10- minutes… Read more »

If Challenges are the Symptom…

What’s the Cause? Most everybody that comes to me for coaching have been focused on the Challenge or Symptom and not the Solution or the Cure…that’s because they haven’t found the Cause. Once we find the Cause, we can move forward to the Solution part and start to make a plan to handle the Challenge…. Read more »

That’s how I do it…

Is it really? Sounds like you “own it” when you say that. Nothing wrong with that. We all do “stuff”, but it’s really “how” we do it, that matters most. You can sweep the streets – in lethargic boredom, or in a beautiful dancing rhythm. You can work at your desk – with a heavy… Read more »

There will never be another you…

We’ve heard it before, with virtually countless generations and billions of people currently on this planet, there will never be another you. May not be a big deal at a glance, but when we really think about it, if there will never be another you, what are you doing to make your contribution to history?… Read more »

Some say it is…

One of the “All Time Greatest”…

Golfers, Jack Nicklaus, also had one of the greatest “Mindsets” in golf. When he was asked “Why his golf game was so great, over so many years”, he replied… “I always looked at a golf tournament as an opportunity to succeed. while I have known some others that have thought of it as an opportunity… Read more »

Seeds of Greatness…

Are in every one of us, and it is up to US to make sure they are nourished in order for them to take root and grow. Just like anything that needs care, we are talking about consistency, and not just a once in a while thing. So what are you doing consistently, to allow… Read more »

Rise and Shine!

Yep – The old school phrase used when you woke up and it’s a time tested, powerful 3 word affirmation which we should all repeat, or use as our daily morning mantra. Make no mistake about it – it’s not Rise and Dull…it’s “RISE AND SHINE”:) My wife and 15 year old daughter choose to… Read more »
