Given what my life’s work has been about, I like to believe I have enough tools to manage my mindset, even in 2020. I consider it an honor to help others do the same as well. And then my humanity kicks in and I realize my work is never done. My job is to be… View Article
Oh the infinite things we’ve needed to rescope this year, including our traditions for the holidays. Wow! For our family, we rearranged our Thanksgiving events (including the day itself) six or seven times in the days preceding the holiday itself.

When I think of the holidays, I like to imagine that the experience I am having today is a possibility for all. It’s simple really – Thanks + Giving. What can you be truly thankful for?

On the wall above my desk I have a question to focus my attention and remind me of what’s important. Some days, I’m very present to it and it guides my thinking and actions. Other days, I seem to be oblivious to it…until something causes me to “see” it again and refocus. It works 100% of the time and I… View Article
“You often feel tired, not because you’ve done too much, but because you’ve done too little of what sparks a light in you.” This was sent during an EOS session as we discussed Delegate and Elevate.® Thanks @ginathorson. Coincidental? I think not. If you’re going through the motions, the days are blurred, you’re not finding joy in your work… View Article
Do you have perspective on your thinking? One of the most effective ways to gain clarity is to journal. When you do so, you pour your thinking onto a piece of paper and have the ability to observe yourself and your thinking in a way no other practice offers. There are all kinds of roadblocks that arise… View Article
How are you thinking of this holiday season? Is it better, worse or the same? As many of you know, I’m focused and intent on making this year special regardless of circumstance. What I’ve determined is I need to be different with regard to what our traditions mean. It can’t and won’t look the same for our family. That is not… View Article
