do the same job, travel the same road, booooring.  Next
day, same story.
Do you want a change [...]

Control Your Fear Before It Controls You

Monday, April 20th, 2009

The One-Two Punch for Success: Authenticity and Alignment

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Have you ever felt as if you are beating your head against a wall?  You repeatedly try to reach a goal but you never seem to achieve it.  Instead you are struggling rather than moving forward and achieving your goals with grace and ease.
You are not alone.  The struggle to move from what we don’t [...]

Life Versus Lifestyle

Monday, April 20th, 2009

There is a difference but what constitutes a life and what constitutes a lifestyle is pretty ambiguous.  One thing that seems pretty clear to me is the lifestyle is observable while a life can have many internal aspects to it.  A lifestyle can include people, material things, environments, how we spend our time, energy, and [...]

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

The very first “motivational speaker” I heard as an adult was a gentleman named Mort Utley.  I experienced his speech in May of 1989 in Nashville, Tennessee, at the end of a week of Sales School with the Southwestern Company.  I was 19 years old and had just finished my freshman year at the University [...]
