In the past I kept a stiff upper lip and claimed my glass was always half-full and never half-empty. I realize now that was not always reality. I chatted about half-awake vs half-asleep the other day with my friend Angie Sorge on Twitter. It was early in the day and she commented that when she is … [Read more...]
Ignite Speaking Engagement for MKELive
Here is the video from my speaking engagement at the MKELive Ignite event. I'm in and out of the picture a little at the beginning but do me a favor and hang in there for a few minutes.

Smiles and Patience Part II

I have always been good at the not quitting part (perhaps to a fault). You don't stay self employed for almost 15 years without that tenacity. On the … [Read more...]
Breakthrough Moments come after Radical Thinking
Do you have breakthrough days? I woke yesterday morning just knowing it was going to be a breakthrough day.
