Unsticking the Stuck – Traction Devices Required
The Most Powerful Word – NO!
Tuesday, March 9, 2010 22:03
In our society the default answer to nearly every question is “Yes.” Advertising is all geared towards getting us to say “Yes – I need that.” We phrase our inquiries looking for yes: “Would you like more coffee?” “Would you be interested in joining me for dinner?” “Would you help me move next week?” “Would [...]
Show Up Empty

It was a simple instruction really, but it left me rather terrified in a very calm sort of way. I was preparing for a performance at Fright Night – Open Mic for the Faint of Heart. This wasn’t any ordinary open mic though, this open mic was about pushing your edge and doing something you’ve [...]
Repairing the Rift, Evolving the Relationship: Father & Son
Tuesday, March 9, 2010 21:56
I spent the better part of 20 years dealing with the resulting demons of my relationship with my father. It was not just demons though, it was anger and that is a long time to be angry! I was angry at behavior and actions that had been a part of my childhood. For 20 years [...]

Sometimes the universe just doesn’t give you a [...]

At first I just thought they were yelling at each other like they do so often. Then they got louder and then it started to sound like something was about to get dangerous. Growing increasingly annoyed and then concerned I finally looked out the window to see what my next-door neighbors were doing. Smoke was [...]
Are You Ready?

Well are you? Are you ready to live the life you love? All it takes is a little passion, conviction, purpose, faith, commitment, trust, enthusiasm, empowerment, courage, clarity, sense of adventure, patience, perseverance, strength, determination and a whole lot of support. Not a very convincing sell is it? It kind of makes that solid, stable, [...]
Accepting Change
Tuesday, March 9, 2010 20:55
I lost my water bottle. Change was bound to happen after that. I know it is really no big deal as it’s just a little thing – but I really liked that water bottle! It fit perfectly in the cup holder of my car, it had an easy to open lid, a spill guard that [...]
