Whether it’s your business, your career or your life at home., it’s easy to get off track, lose touch or get buried […]
Unstoppable Vision
A colleague of mine, another coach and consultant, recently talked about why people so often do not take that next step and act on their vision. He said they are fearful, and those fearful thoughts bring them nothing but things to fear. There is some truth to this. Perhaps you’ve heard it phrased another way, […]
Have You Seen the Wizard?
I often wonder…how would I bring up my grandkids today? Certainly differently than their parents when they were growing up in the 1970s and 80s.
