Learning Something New

Happy Monday! Above all, I hope this day finds you healthy and happy. I’m learning that these two things make it much easier for everything else to fall into place.

Oops! How Do You Effectively Reboot?

I dropped the ball… BIG TIME! Not on purpose, but nonetheless, I’ve totally neglected my blog. Why does it matter? Perhaps it doesn’t; but I’d like to think it does. Not only do I find that it has helped keep me on track, but a number of my very few readers have said that it has … Continue reading

They Say The Third Time’s The Charm

Pimpin’ ain’t the only thing that ain’t easy…. No, I’m not making light of, nor do I condone, pimpin’.

Setbacks Spur Imagination

I have a very good idea for a start-up business. I believe in it very much, and am convinced it could be hugely successful. There’s only one problem: it’s WAY to big for me. It requires more expertise and tons more money than I have readily available. I’ve flipped it upside down, backwards, sideways and … Continue reading

How In The World Can You Forget To Have Fun?

I’ve been grinding… HARD! I finished my latest round of classes last Monday (7 down, 3 to go), but had several meetings throughout the week, so I didn’t get a chance to rest until the weekend. I was feeling pretty accomplished, and felt it was time to have some fun–and that’s when it hit me: … Continue reading
