The Rose Vs The Bouquet
The Rose Vs The Bouquet! Are you only valuing the rose as part of the bouquet…..or can you value the rose by itself? We tend to say “It’s about the little things in life that matter”…..yet we don’t show an appreciation for all that creates the bigger picture. I’m guilty of it at times, as well as others I know. It is part of us as humans. So how do we learn to value a rose by itself? How do we begin to value the process….or the little things? Can you value the ten dollars you do have, rather than waiting for the millions to roll in before you begin valuing…

How “Great Time” Will Create Your Success
Boy oh boy…doesn’t that quote above hit it right on the head? It always just boils down to how we each choose to invest our time and the results that we wish to come from it. That is the lesson I wanted to pass along today with this episode. This past weekend I had an absolute blast hanging out at my friend Mark Hoverson’s event “Invisible Empire.” Amazing time networking, masterminding, learning and joking around. You definitely could say it was a “great time.” And those last two words hold the lesson. You see “great time” is something Mark broke down into a very powerful perspective. For it is far…

Pen In Hand
In this episode, you will find I had a tough time recording this episode! My mind was all over the place….. I jumped from sharing how to quit “Fearing Your Voice”……. How we are afraid to say what we actually think, such as: I believe in God! I hate my job! You upset me! And whatever else that strikes a chord with whatever keeps you from speaking up. Then, I tried recording an episode about taking the pen from whoever is holding it….. And to “Write Your Own Story”! There are days in which we are off cue, such as I was in this episode…… But because of this, I…

Participation Awards
Participation Awards….. Hmmmm…..the magical question on whether or not our kids are deserving of a trophy or ribbon…..just for participating! Well, I won’t dance around this one! I’ve coached my daughter in softball for 5 years…..junior high volleyball for a season…..and assistant for junior high basketball. And my son, well I’ve coached him in baseball for 4 years, and now in travel ball…..basketball for a season….and soccer for a season. Back in the day, many of us growing up didn’t receive awards for “participating” Personally, as each season begins, I share with the parents that I will not participate in getting the kids trophies or plaques for playing the game.…

Fear Your Dreams?
Do you fear your dreams? And in fearing your dreams, you’d rather enjoy the thoughts and feelings of what a destination (dream) might actually bring to your life…. In college, I remember taking a philosophy class which brought a great deal of thinking my way….we read the poem of “Ithaca”. Ithaca is a destination….. But by the poem’s end, it is not Ithaca that is important, it is who you became in your travels to Ithaca….no matter your destination was that which was expected…. If it brought disappointment…. Or it became more than you could imagine. What we dream of, secretly brings about fear for many of us…..which prohibits from…

New Entrepreneur: Little Things Are Everything
New Entrepreneur…little things are everything! So this morning I woke up at 7:30 a.m. And you might be thinking..so what? At 9:10 pm I went for a walk at Kiwanis Park in Tempe, AZ for about 30 minutes to enjoy the overcast weather and stretch the legs a bit and think on how grateful I am. And you might be thinking…so what? Then a wonderful friend and fellow entrepreneur warrior all the way from The Netherlands messaged me for some help with something. I said hey do you want to jump on a Skype call for a bit..I’m available. And you might be thinking…so what? Then I ran to the…

Finding Yourself in 2016: Have You Lost Your Savior Within?
How will you go about finding yourself in 2016? I love this image above as it shows the variety and intensity of paths that we might take on our journey. The decisions you make as you go about finding yourself will push you to your limits and sometimes even momentarily break you down to your core. But I truly believe that at that core…that foundation of YOU…lies your savior. The savior we always seem to be seeking in our pursuit of success. Now as I say in the beginning of this podcast episode, I’m not speaking on the topic of religion. Although I do use a reference to scripture to…
