We know the happy, creation-driven life super-charges us, and, we sweep our lovers off their feet!   Love train baby (super-charged creative you), staying on track, delivering increasing values for society will help all the people!  Rather than being a drain on society, let’s all vow to feel the power of love!  All aboard?  Next train stop, picking-up the little children.  Since we are happier, they...

We know that by creating value we feel happiness and we can share that happiness with others.  Considering, government is “the People”, we must elect leaders who create value rather than destroy value.  Term of office should be dictated by one’s ability to create value, not by what one says they will do.  Behavior dictates the value of a loved one or an elected official seeking love through a vote. ...

The older I get the more I learn. The more I learn, the greater my concern.  Why is it this Country, founded with freedom, has silenced the small entrepreneur, and you hardly ever see them?  Those men and women who made a choice, to try it alone, rather than listen to another voice.  You see we each were gifted with a mind. Now, it seems we fear using it, as we could get in a bind.  These entrepreneurs from...

Sipping coffee, on my cousin’s screened deck, I reflected upon our previous day’s conversations, and today’s plans which include a funeral.  A funeral, never a happy planned event, always changes life’s plans.  How honestly we communicate allows real living.  I thought about how our family communicates.  How honestly sharing, we allow love and happiness and pleasurable, relaxing moments.  When focused...

Are you coping with life (stress, hurry, and worry) or living the life you are equipped to have (joy, calm, and love)?  You can have a life of optimal health and emotional fulfillment.  The skills necessary to live optimally are obtainable through conscious choice.  We can choose to accept what we can’t change (others), change what we can (self), and love in the present moment, so that life continually...

When I was a child my mother would say “Misery loves company!”  The first time I heard it, it seemed abstract, but, I quickly learned it meant I was demonstrating a hurtful behavior.  As if by magic, I would  immediately, change my behavior, to please my mother.  I wanted her love and acceptance and I realized I always felt better because I switched my thoughts to love and my behavior improved too! ...

Lastly, I shared a thought about how you can get ahead at work. How, you can start saying “When the cat’s away, the mice take over the day!”  I pointed out that some bosses will let you learn more, if you just ask, because you actually free them for more projects.   These projects let them climb the ladder, and may include off-site activities while they entertain clients.  That gives you more control...

What is the essence of leadership? To do what needs done and to do it well. How does one do that? By taking charge rather than waiting for someone else to make it happen. What will taking charge do for you? Improve your life.  So, how does one take charge in a job? By asking questions and taking on additional responsibilities.  This unearths your creativity.  This is the 1st step, a small step, but, a great...

I had the pleasure of visiting a highly successful business operation today.  This large corporation continues to grow even in these tough economic times.   Browsing their Annual Report, the numbers revealed that delivering great products and services will produce profit.  What speaks even louder is the fact their happy employees earn a good living and their shareholders receive dividends because the Company...

The love that grows between a man and a woman is joint value creation.  A man can create value in his work and so can a woman.  The love between them grows when they mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually celebrate each other’s existence.  It is difficult for a man to feel good about himself unless he is creating and developing significant values for himself and others.  He needs to feel valuable...
