You don’t need to move faster.
You need to reduce unnecessary risk.

When your decision affects income, reputation, or stability,
pause with structure before you act.

  • Whether You’re 22 or 82 – Quit Holding Your Greatness Hostage!

    Regardless of how old you are – you can make a difference. Every single day you are given an opportunity to do so. How are you using that privilege? Or do you hold the belief that it’s impossible for you to make a difference because you are too young or old? Your being too old…

  • Note Those Times When Your Eyes Light Up

    I can always tell when someone is passionate about an idea, a project…whatever they’re talking about. Their eyes light up. Their posture changes ever so slightly as if to straighten themselves out to deliver their truth. There is a beautiful story writing process that I use to help my clients rediscover what they are truly…

  • Putting Greater Emphasis on Self-examination vs Self-celebration

    This graphic by Hugh MacLeod got me thinking. ( I love receiving Hugh’s emails. They always make me think. If you want to see what I mean, check out his blog here.) With this image Hugh talked about the trouble with success…it was exhausting. The he said… But we put on a brave face anyway, and…

  • You Don’t Need to be Fixed – Nothing is Wrong With You

    Do you ever feel insecure? What about unworthy? And rejected? Are you easily hurt if your’e not included in a conversation…left out of a project…didn’t get an invite to the party? Most of us think, ‘I’m pretty worthy of love and belonging — but I’d be super worthy of love and belonging if I could lose…

  • How Are You Using Your Power?

    The measure of a man is what he does with power. This statement was made by Pittacus of Mytiline, Greek Statesman and sage. What feelings do you have when you think about power? Do you hold the view as Lord Acton did when he insightfully observed that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely? Do…

  • Insults Don’t Motivate

    I once had a boss who thought it was OK to hurl insults at me across the room; shout out directives; curse and belittle. This was how he encouraged me. It didn’t work. There are countless stories about Joe Jackson – dad of the famous Jackson 5 – which of course included the infamous Michael…

  • We Move Towards What We See in Our Mind

    In the classic book Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill shares a Self-Confidence Formula. This is a formula that he asks readers to memorize and repeat aloud once a day and there is good reason for this. The second paragraph of that formula goes as follows: I realize that the dominating thoughts of my mind…

  • How to Be at Your Best when Life is at its Worst

    Every adversity has the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit. Napoleon Hill repeats this phrase in every book he has written. “Look for the benefit…” he suggests. “So you’ve got a problem? That’s good!” How can a problem be a good thing? You might be asking this right now. How can my present challenge…

  • Does the End Justify the Means? How Far Would You Go?

    Finally got around to looking at the movie “Whiplash”. I didn’t read any reviews before so I was pleasantly surprised that it was about jazz and the musicians who choose to pursue this musical genre to claim greatness. J.J.Duncan describes what the movie is about in his post ‘6 Deep Thoughts About Whiplash’: At the…

  • “Carrying the Curry”

    Every day about 5,000 dabbawalas, or lunch box people, deliver nearly a quarter-million home-cooked lunches around Mumbai, India…a city of seventeen million people…at a high speed and WITHOUT ERROR! What’s their secret? Their mission is simple – serve their customers accurately and on time, every time. Their value proposition – to bring a fresh, home-cooked…
