Living your Best Life Now
We talk about living our best life now but ignore the now, and treat it as though it is a destination waiting somewhere ahead of us… after the right opportunity arrives, after the body changes, after the money settles, after the grief softens, after we finally become some shinier version of ourselves. But life does…

Bad Reviews Won’t Kill Your Business, But This One Thing Will
This week, Kim Kardashian’s new legal drama, All’s Fair — was slammed by critics, panned by viewers, and memed into oblivion just days after launch. That shared cringe when someone we “know” — even through a screen — stumbles publicly. It’s not the bad reviews that make us uncomfortable. It’s what they reveal we’re afraid…

Clarity Postponed is Opportunity Missed
Have you ever found yourself delaying taking action. Perhaps a decision needed to be made, you needed to have an uncomfortable conversation, send an email, pick up the phone and make an important call. Perhaps you call yourself lazy. Maybe you describe yourself as a procrastinator. In a July 13th article, this year, McClean hospital,…

The Oxford English Dictionary defines an entrepreneur as ‘a person who sets up a business or businesses, taking on financial risks in the hope of profit’. Who comes to mind? Perhaps Mark Zuckerberg or Alan Sugar? Maybe Bill Gates or James Dyson? If we were talking about entrepreneurs in Trinidad and Tobago who would we…

You can’t open the door with stuff in your hands…
We yearn for something better…our heart knows what we desire…yet we are scared to put down what we know no longer works. We stand in front of the door of “next”…new beginnings…a different way of being…hands full of STUFF! We’re afraid to admit that this load has become too heavy to bear so we feel…

Make Today Count
In his book, The Positive Principle Today, writer Norman Vincent Peale recounts the story of Orville Kelly, a newspaperman from Iowa, who went to the hospital at the age of 43 for an examination and was told he had terminal cancer. Of course, he was stunned by this devastating news, as was his wife, Wanda.…

Great Teachers are Great Leaders (I’ve had a few in my life)…
They don’t make teachers like they used to – But then again – I’m no longer in school so what do I know? What I do know for sure is that at Bishop Anstey Junior School there were three teachers that had a significant impact on my life: Mrs Massiah Miss (as far as I…
Clarity BEFORE Execution. Structure BEFORE Speed
If you could better understand one thing about your business right now….
Most costly decisions begin with
an inaccurate understanding of the situation.
I help leaders understand what is actually happening before major decisions are made or
resources are invested in solving the wrong problem.
