Mitch’s Blog

Suffice it to say, I know my way around a computer. I can pretty much repair most software issues, and some hardware issues here and there.
Last week I had an issue with some software, and, though I don’t know why things went wrong, I set about trying to fix it, especially because [...]

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m diabetic. And I’m not necessarily a good one. I do weigh less than I did when I was diagnosed, but I’m not down as much as my doctor would wish I was.
My progression has been somewhat steady. I started out only on [...]

Many here in America don’t realize that there’s a British version of the show America’s Got Talent. Well, they started it, after all, and it’s called Britain’s Got Talent.
Anyway, last year, out of the blue, they got this guy named Paul Potts, a cell phone salesman who wanted to sing opera. [...]

I mentioned this website, Beautiful Summer Morning, on my Blog Day post in August. This guy, Nick Grimshawe, really does come up with some very good stuff.
Two videos have been highlighted on his site within the past couple of weeks that I’d like to share with you now. The first is [...]

A friend turned me on to this little video called Five Big Questions, which is associated afterwards with an ecourse by a gentleman named Michael Bungay Stanier. It’s a pretty neat little video, backed up with what I call bebop jazz, a little long, but very worth watching because it’ll make you think about [...]

This morning I went to a seminar called 7 Habits of 7 Highly Successful People, based on the Stephen Covey book Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Each of the speakers are, of course, very successful people in their own right. One of them is nationally known; the other is probably one of [...]

On Thursday, I wrote up and sent out my 100th Newsletter, which I entitled Number 100; seemed to make sense to me.
I started the newsletter in February 2003, with the intention of writing something every two weeks. And, with only a couple of blips, I’ve done just that. You don’t think about it [...]

A few years ago, my mother gave me a little card that was entitled “Today I Take Control”, with the subtitle “Declaration of Financial Empowerment.” Every once in awhile, I pull it out and read it, just for a quick mental boost.
Today I decided to see if it was online, so that I could [...]

What does it take for you to consider that you’ve had a good day?
For me, it’s usually a good day if I’ve received one call related to business of some sort, but I also have good days where all I do is work on a project. My wife has a good day every day [...]

I wasn’t going to post this here, but this one deserves a trackback.
Nick Grimshawe writes a very nice blog which he called Beautiful Summer Morning. This post in particular, which is actually only an inspirational video, just caught my eye, and I knew I wanted to share it with y’all.
Enjoy the video, then read [...]
