Today, I found a quote from Maya Angelou on LinkedIn, “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” Originally, my blog post was going to be called “An Honest Letter To A Friend,” but this seemed to suit the post even better. 🙂 You see, we all… Read More Know Better, Do Better
We’ve all heard the saying that “less is more”, but what about when “more is less”? Hear me out for a minute… Over the years, I have become obsessed with many things. Yes, I would say that “obsessed” is a fair statement. These things have sometimes been great (like golf) and other times not so… Read More More Is Less
To all of my regular readers, I apologize for the long delay since my last post. Every now and then, it is healthy to take a break and re-evaluate. I needed to hit pause on this blog because I felt like it was heading a bit off track. You see, when I started this blog… Read More Hitting Pause
Isn’t life great when we have all the answers? When things are black and white, it’s easy (or at least easier) to make a choice. We can look at the respective paths with all of the information and make an educated decision. However, what about when we do not have all of the information? That… Read More Grey Zone

However, this week I was thinking about the less clearly defined “wins” in life. The ones that involve power struggles. These wins can involve self-sacrifice or… Read More Winning?
I would say I’m a pretty goal-oriented person. I am a dreamer at first, but once I see what I want, I chase it. If I want something badly, I focus on it pretty hard. However, I recently discovered that most of the things that I chase the hardest, and wish for the greatest, turn… Read More Bigger And Better Things
When you think of weakness what comes to mind? Is it the image of someone who is unable to move forward physically or mentally? Or perhaps someone who is just not as strong as you are at a particular task or activity? Too often weakness is treated as a bad word. No one strives to… Read More Weakness
It’s easy to be mad. Letting our emotions blow out of proportion, not looking at the situation with a level head and possibly turning to revenge or vengefulness. When I was younger, I will admit I had hostility down pat. Revenge? Ooh, baby. Screaming match? Bring it on. Then I asked, “What is this accomplishing?”… Read More Harder Than Hostility
