What type of Leader are you,” A Brick Layer or a Stone Mason?”

Every time I think about today’s education system I hear Pink Floyd’s Another Brick in the Wall song playing in the back of my mind. I current education system was based on the needs of the industrial revolution. Factory workers needed to be made in short order that were able to read, write and perform basic math functions. Being able to memorize sequences was a necessary commodity of the day. In today’s...

Show Me The Money!

 Oh no!  Your company announced it will be laying-off in two (2) months.  Are you feeling trapped like a mouse?   Downsizing, not upsizing, happens frequently, in the private sector of America, due to massive regulations and rising taxes which hinder new creativity’s birth.  Chances are there aren’t many new jobs opening up!  If you haven’t prepared you might have to look to the government for breathing...

Be a Goal Sniffing Blood Hound

I was watching a TV show and the interviewer asked a dog handler why the dogs seem to go way off course at first. What the dog handler said made perfet sense for the dog and for us.  He said “Once the dog gets the sent, it makes a wide arc. Unfortunately, the farther away from the source the dog is the more it smells other sents. So, the dog is smelling how far it can go before it looses the sent. Once...

Beware Women and the Mechanic’s Shop…….Yikes!

You know I always dread having a mechanical problem with my truck.  About a month ago my check engine light came on….I thought O, No…this is more than just an oil change…I have to see the mechanic.    I called around discussing the diagnostic code I had received on the vehicle; it read running lean on O94.   The Ford dealership said that could mean leaky head gasket, ($452.00), or the Injector’s...

Planning for a Sunny Day!

Would you love to have more time to do what your heart desires?  Do you know what your heart desires?  Has it been decades since you focused on yourself?  Does everyone else get more of your time and money than you do?  If you honestly answered these questions you might have responded with at least one “No” and hopefully it wasn’t in response to the second question.  If it was, hope is on the way. ...

The Sky is the Limit

  Company capture is capturing your own creativity while on the job and in your own personal life development.      It involves finding that place of creativity that produces a dual derivative….one of joy in creation adding to your personal life’s enhancement, and secondly, in the produced value.  The shared value occurs both monetarily and through the generated product itself which becomes useful...

Sound Business Decision

Have you ever heard the term “sound business decision”?  Do you suppose it means that there is a dollar to be made instead of running out of money?  Do you suppose it included research and development to make sure the plan would work?  Are you willing to be part of a “sound business decision” to make a “giant leap” forward?  What if you had “nothing to lose” and everything to gain, would...

Creative Efforts to Gain Peace

Now that you are very aware that you only have so much energy and effort, to dedicate towards never ending RESPONSIBILITIES, why WASTE it on anyone or anything?  Even if you are a twin, you sense your own UNIQUE qualities and abilities.   Get focused, find your Friday Night Essence, and CREATE something valuable for yourself and others.   It is just as easy to go to work with an attitude of “I love work!”...

Why all Americans should be Ashamed if they are not Wealthy! Part 2

In part 1 I gave you something very powerful, the definition of being wealthy. By simply defining the crossover point you should either have been happy because you have a certain level of wealth or you should be glad that you now have a defined goal to work towards. As I have traveled the world I have seen the grand casinos in Monaco and the extreme poverty in Kenya. As I look at the devistation in Haiti I am...

Happy New Decade!

Fortunately for me I have had an essence for computers since I was in high school, which was over three decades ago. By the summer of 2000 I finally purchased my first computer because I learned it was a valuable tool that I needed to take my entrepreneur journey to the next level. WOW!!! What a decade. By 2001 I purchased my first palm pilot phone and have continued to upgrade to the latest smart phone...
