Compassion…

We talk a lot about empowering ourselves…what about others? Compassion is a good recipe for helping others. It not only contributes in helping them with their “deal” but it also gives way for better relationships. And it all starts with you. Yours in Compassion – Coach

Why do we have to get older??

I don’t know, but we all age… regretfully. When I first moved to Las Vegas to be with Zappos, I went to this haircut place where it’s really bright inside. When they finished, they spun me around and asked me how I liked the back….I couldn’t believe it!!! It was the first time I saw… Read more »

In business…

A common mistake that is made, is that they advertise when things are down, in an attempt to bring in more business. But in reality, when business is down, working on the structure and function of the business is what is called for, not advertising. Advertising is to be done when the business is doing… Read more »

Putting Things into Perspective

My wife went in for some testing and everything is OK, but as she was waiting apprehensively for her results, she spotted a little girl around 7 with a bald head, smiling pushing around an I.V. stand, taking a walk with her Mom. She also saw a smaller child asking a lady why she was… Read more »

We need to remember to get “out” side. Sanitariums of the past had the recipe, when folks needed to balance “out” their lives. Set in beautiful settings, the “patients” we urged to slow down and take in what nature had to offer, like long walks, sitting on a park bench beneath majestic trees, surrounded by… Read more »

In any game…

Whether it be the game of life, work or play…on paper, there can be favorites, and also a projected “Winner”. But we don’t play on paper. This is pretty cool, because when we play our game, we often times receive doubt, opposition or resistance from others – which sometimes gets in our heads. But last… Read more »

We all mess up…

It’s just a part of life. When we do, why not just admit it and use it for a lesson, on what not to mess up on in the future, and apologize if needed. In doing this, we can cut the guilt which only keeps our focus on what we messed up on, and in… Read more »
