It’s All in Your Perspective
It’s All in Your Perspective (Reading about six-word stories gave me an idea for a creative editing/writing exercise to reduce some of my earlier blogs to 200 words, as well as, the six-word version that follows.) Changing your perspective can change your energy. A...
Grumpy is as Grumpy Does
(Reading about six-word stories gave me an idea for a creative editing/writing exercise to reduce some of my earlier blogs to 200 words, as well as, the six-word version that follows.) Last week I had to renew my driver’s license. It was past the expiration date, so I...
The Dog Says No
(As a creative editing/writing exercise I decided to reduce some of my earlier blogs to 200 words and then six words. Here's the first. A six-word version appears at the end.) On my daily walk, I’ve noticed signs encouraging people to pick up after their dogs. Seeing...
Road Rage versus Curiosity
Driving to the office Monday morning, I followed two different drivers who were obviously distracted by technology. One was weaving in and out of his lane while looking down, almost hitting parked cars twice. The other was so involved with reading or typing something...

I Can’t Even Do a 90-Minute Challenge
Several people I know are doing a 90-day personal challenge. Every day for 90 days they commit to do one action that they want to change or develop in their life—exercise, avoid sugar, work less. I’m very clear on where I want to develop better habits—meditation,...
What if Your Mind Changes Itself?
Eighteen months ago our good friend and client, Theresa, was a victim of a car accident. Her vehicle was not only broadsided by another car, it was also forced head on into a brick wall. During each of these external hits, Theresa’s head bounced against another hard...
Teach Me to Be Kind
Many years ago, a former girlfriend requested, “Teach me to be kind. I don’t know how.” “I can’t teach you to be kind,” I replied, “You need to learn that on your own.” What I meant, at the time, was that I really wasn’t willing to be her teacher, because I didn’t...
