A couple of days ago, when my wife left for work, she had a funny feeling and decided to lock all the doors before she left. The thing is that I was still home, even though I was asleep, and usually she wouldn’t have locked the garage door. When I asked her about it later, [...]
As many people know by now, 3 people passed away due to their participation in something called a sweatlodge ceremony. In essence, this is a Native American ceremony where people go into a little handmade hut of coverings with some very hot rocks. Then someone pours water over them, creating a lot of steam, and [...]
Do you know what a typical work day is for me? I usually wake between 9 and 9:30. That may seem late to some, but stay with me. I’ll then spend most of the next 18 hours or so at my computer, doing something. I might be writing or researching or creating something. Almost everything [...]
A couple of days ago I wrote a post where I talked about my friend George Chapman and his unique idea, which I still think is a pretty good idea, on a health care plan. We talked about a lot of things, and one thing in particular came up. I was saying to him how [...]
I came upon an epiphany this morning that almost lifted me from my seat. This isn’t a political post, although I begin with a political premise to help me explain things.

I can’t believe it’s been almost 2 years since the last time I wrote about myself as a professional speaker. At that time, I had just recently completed my first keynote presentation on charge master and charge capture processes in Virginia, outside of Washington D.C. What kind of seminars can I give? There’s plenty I [...]
This is my 600th blog post for this blog, and I feel pretty good about that. Not many people actually reach 600 posts, based on statistics, so I’m in rare air. And yet, as I’ve reached this number, I find myself at an interesting mental crossroads. First, let me give you the only statistic I [...]
In the past week or so I seem to keep hearing about this word called “passion.” Basically, the talk has centered around one of two things. One asks the question what is your passion. The other says that people should try to figure out their passion, and if they can then that’s the business they [...]
