Our Written Opinions
Digitally speaking, blogging is one of the coolest and easiest ways to share thoughts and insights (often referred to as opinions) that are outside the usual. Look for fresh insights and stories each week.
The Federation of Men
It’s time I apologize to the Federation of Men. Once and for all. You see, I used to think men were dumb; women more intelligent when admitting their inability to stay on a path. Because we all know, a man never gets lost. Among some of his better lines, I think the “I am exploring,”
WHAT??? You, TOO???
I have been going to Reformer Pilates for more than a year now. It has been extremely helpful in getting much of my balance back and strengthening my ‘core’. Three of us students are pretty close. One lady has lost nearly 150 lbs in two years — very, very hard work. One lady is a
A Game to Try
I was cruising Twitter the other day (I don’t post much, to begin with, and am even less inclined since the MuskRat bought it.) and stumbled upon this post from one of my connections. “A famous researcher predicts divorce with 91% accuracy. He invented a game to protect against the #1 relationship killer. Here it
Time To Change Your Dream?
About your dream. I relearned another lesson this week. And you may find it helpful. I’ve been researching and taping several upcoming episodes of my podcast Exploring Compassionate Capitalism. And watching the games being played in Egypt as the world leaders try to agree on just one thing. Horribly, I found myself falling deep into
Purposeful Procrastination
Purposeful Procrastination? What on earth am I talking about? We all have those days when we just don’t wanna. No matter how important it is that we know to get something done, we don’t have the energy or the reserve to follow through. Know what I mean? I have a trick to get you on
Keeping Zen-Like
Zen-Like? What is that? I see you shaking your head. How many hours have you ever spent trying to change someone’s mind? I’ll wager thousands–if you add them ALL up. And I’ll also wager you were successful in only a handful. Ever wonder why? I ran across this quote from Thich Nhat Hahn, a recently
Playing Big or Playing Safe
I learned a few things about bending one’s mind the other week and thought you might find some of it interesting. Play Big or Play Safe. Just Play. For three days, a bunch of us huddled in front of the computer screen, attending a sales and mindset masterclass. (Fortunately, about six hours of advertising and
Branding: The Tail of the Nights
Branding and refreshes. Last week, I shared with you my rebranding. And if you were one of the many who generously played tester or sent me helpful comments, here’s a huge thank you from my heart to yours. I also promised to tell you how The Knights of the Round Table found their way into
The Big Reveal
Today is the big reveal, so I am keeping this week’s opinion piece very short. The exercise in rebranding is finally finished. It has only taken me nearly fourteen years to get to this stage! (Very typical, by the way, for all those who begin a business and then pivot a few times.) May I
Does It REALLY Matter?
This week, I rediscovered an old forgotten technique and thought you might find it helpful. Behind the scenes, I am doing a bit of a rebrand and refreshing my website and all my marketing collateral. We might be two hours away from unveiling the new website. Excitement is in the air! On Wednesday morning, my
