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

  • Discover the Power of Dogfooding, and Why It Is the Ultimate Quality Test

    Ever heard of the term “Dogfooding”? It is the inelegant industry term for a serious discipline: Use the thing you built exactly the way your customer must use it. No shortcuts because you understand the backend. No compensating with expertise. If it only works when explained, it does not work yet. I did not decide…

  • When Words Start Wars

    Orem, Utah, September 10, 2025: Charlie Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point USA, was midway through a “Prove Me Wrong” campus debate when a single rifle shot ended his life.

  • Why “doing what you love” isn’t enough

    We’ve all heard the advice: do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life. It sounds inspiring. It looks good on a coffee mug. But it’s misleading — even dangerous — because it oversimplifies how we are truly designed as human beings. The truth is: love alone isn’t enough. You can…

  • Act from alignment

    My belief is that when you are in alignment, things work out, sometimes in ways you can’t explain. Sometimes through some circuitous route you could never have planned yourself. A chance meeting. A name that comes to you at the right time for your business. A spot opens up and it’s the perfect location for…

  • Effficiency versus impact

    During this morning’s quiet time, I was reviewing my business marketing efforts and contemplating whether I in fact was clear about my vision and what I wanted to be ‘known’ for.
