I think our world needs more love, needs to understand love better. I just wanted to share some points that maybe could be helpful for some folks. So let’s just talk about what love is, and maybe isn’t. You know, I think our culture and movies and shows and especially, romantic...

Before Christmas, I had the opportunity to go wild hog hunting in Texas. I know some of you might have a different opinion about hunting but let me share two thoughts. First, for a farmer in Texas wild hogs are like having mice in your kitchen pantry. They are rodents that destroy and consume....

Christmas brings to most people’s minds a time for giving. For most, it is a wonderful time of year, because of the energy created through giving. It is sad to me that this giant focus on giving for many people is narrowed down to this one time of year.

Giving should be an attitude and a...

Last week we talked about money and this week I want to briefly discuss the idea that business is evil.

There is a trend in the media and news to portray business in a negative light and it seems to be growing lately. Business charges money and therefore is evil. This is a dangerous trend and...

On my recent trip to New England, we chose a luxury...

My wife and I recently travelled to New England and spent some time enjoying the early history of our country and my own families ties to that history. 

I have connections to the earliest settlers in Jamestown, to a family on the Mayflower and to many of the patriots who chose to fight for...

I think there are a lot of misconceptions about coaching.

1. The coach should be an expert in my industry.

There are industry specific coaches and they can have value, but they also have limitations. They have a system or...

I have always been fascinated with rockets and space and, of course, grew up dreaming to be an astronaut. It is easy for me to apply a rocket metaphor, but this truly is applicable, so I hope you will stick with me.

I have on my wall the mission map for the Apollo 11 moon landing. So many great...

I think of Dory in Finding Nemo and her reminding herself, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming." Dory of course had short term memory issues and felt like she needed to remind herself to keep swimming.
