Business As Usual

Business as Usual   Business as usual is an umbrella term that covers all standard, day-to-day business operations. I really like the definitions buried in the Cambridge Dictionary. “Things are continuing as they always do despite a difficult situation. The state of continuing in the usual way.” Yesterday was the start of a new series on

Ever Thought About Anger?

I am writing this as I put the finishing touches on the 3Day plus 1 Reset exercise I told you about a few weeks back.  And spending much time thinking about anxiety, angst and anger. I got angry last week at a TV producer interviewing me for a piece on his career resources production. (He

Personal Success.  Is There a Better Way?

Let’s talk about one idea we have about personal success. Lately, I’ve been trying to work through the different scenarios that would play out if we arbitrarily chopped the value of all homes globally by 50% to make the market more accessible.  Notice I said globally.  Because, in theory, there would be no impact if

Ways to Manage Better

My tagline used to say, ‘Ideas and Thoughts to Bullet Proof Your Business Now.’ I changed it for 2024 to ‘Considering Ways to Manage Better.’ It was the easiest way to umbrella the three activities I am concentrating on this year. Only some people want to solidify and grow their businesses; not everyone cares about

Forgiveness: To More Peace this Season

December is turning into the whirlwind of activity season. Certainly not because of parties and social things. Instead, because many of my brother’s estate details are finally ending.

We often use “20/20 hindsight” to describe the clarity of vision that comes from our experiences – it allows us to see the mistakes we made in the past and how we could have done things differently. Since we are looking back on what has already occurred, the reasons it happened become crystal clear even

Anxiety of a Different Sort

Let’s talk about a different sort of anxiety. In my late twenties, hubby and I bought our first house. We had precisely ten grand to put down, interest rates were 20%, and we ended up taking a first and second mortgage for a home that cost us exactly double our combined annual income. I wasn’t

Hollywood Tales

Tale #1 Went to see the movie Priscilla last weekend. It was very different from the Elvis blockbuster of last year. Priscilla was the Steak to the Sizzle known as Elvis. Apparently, the musician was talented, tormented and totally whacked (on drugs and out of his mind) most days. What he portrayed in public and

Giveful, Grateful, FULL

For the last two months, I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time feeling like a convoluted pretzel as I’ve dealt with the red tape of both the police and the RCMP. My brother had a few hunting rifles in his possession when he passed, and for a host of reasons, getting those rifles into the

Stop that Squirrel

One night this week, hubby and I dined by flashlight.  A squirrel got a little too intimate with the transformer at the end of our driveway. BOTH were proclaimed dead in a flash. Do YOU play squirrel and suffer from squirrelling? I have several friends who regularly admit they do; I certainly do and venture
