I’m not lying when I say I’m happy to see 2009 come to a close. Though there were a few good things in the year, overall I didn’t quite see things that way. Still, I was able to stay pretty positive throughout the year, which is a good thing. So, as I look forward to [...]

How do you handle busy? It’s an interesting question because, if you’re someone like me, you will have some kind of schedule you like to follow to make sure you get everything done. You also like to try to make sure that you’re going to be able to maintain the same demeanor at all times [...]

I have to admit this; 2009 was a terrible year. It was bad financially; it was bad personally in a couple of ways. It wasn’t my best year physically. And emotionally; let’s not even go there. And yet, even with all of the things that happened to me, I stayed fairly positive throughout the year. [...]

If you saw my post a few days ago explaining where I’d been because of my blog problems, then you can imagine that, though I got it working, something had to have messed up. In this case, it was something I thought was relatively minor, something I did that it turns out I didn’t have [...]

Last year at this time I posted my goals for 2009. I have to be honest and say that 2009 was a very tough year across the board for me, and when times are tough, sometimes you forget to do those things you hope to concentrate on to make things better. Still, it wasn’t the [...]

Sometimes, it doesn’t pay to try to be better, but if you’re lucky, you might figure out a way to eventually get to where you want to be. I was missing in action because I had to try to upgrade this blog. I run it on WordPress software, and I couldn’t upgrade the blog anymore [...]

Two months ago I posted a survey here and asked you to complete the survey and receive some free tips. For those of you who didn’t see it, the survey was about training and how people would like to receive training, and many other questions concerning it. Along with my friend Renee Scherer of Presentations [...]

I have lots of people in my life who view me differently, it seems. There’s the group that views me as a fun-loving, loves to laugh kind of guy. Then there’s the group that views me as sort of a stuffy, afraid to make fun of himself kind of guy. I’d have to say that [...]

Sometimes the world is an ironic place. Case in point, the video below originated with a company with a website called Death of Leadership. It’s kind of funny in a way, making a mockery of the types of leadership we hear about in businesses all the time. It uses sheep with, well, I’m not quite [...]

I haven’t posted any videos in awhile, and I’m thinking it’s time for a diversion. Truthfully, I’ve been writing like a fiend this week, and I could use a little break. And something like these videos is just what I needed, and I’m thinking if I needed them, maybe they’ll help you feel pretty good [...]
