Have you ever heard of having ‘baseball memory’ (or some say football memory?). I never had until the other day, so I thought I’d share, as starting a new year is a great time for such recall… or lack thereof. You see, it’s not about succeeding at every play. In football you can miss 7 [...]

For many, this time of year leads to all sorts of thoughts. And I don’t mean of sugarplums dancing in their heads. What I’m referring to are those end of year assessments we do. All about what we did and didn’t accomplish, and where we succeeded or, more likely, failed to live up to our [...]

These last few weeks have been filled with travel, family, friends, celebration, learning, and re-connecting with colleagues.
Just recently I’ve joined a bunch of groups on LinkedIn. At first I wasn’t sure what I was doing, but the articles and comments that are chatted about are interesting and educational. Mostly. Last week I received a rather unfriendly note accusing me of spamming a particular group. A group that focuses on best business [...]
Lately I’ve been speaking to a number of people who are a bit, well, trapped by their own thoughts and preconceived notions. It’s alarming how so many fall into this trap, and why I’m bringing it to you today. The interesting thing about this phenomena, is that most of us are aware that we practice [...]

Today was one of those super days. Totally in the moment, focused, intentional, productive. Learning mostly, soaking it in, tweaking past knowledge to break through to new levels of understanding. This wasn’t done sitting at a desk on my computer, but cruising through white powder on a mountain, in near white out conditions. Nice. There [...]

Recently, while traveling, I had an amazing and memorable moment in the shower. Now, really, it’s not what you are thinking, you people with your minds in the gutter! What I [...]

This morning I was dreaming about the Beatles. Weird, right? But even stranger than that was the context. I was noticing all the ways that the Beatles taught us about marketing, so of course I had to write it down for all of you. What a great way to end the year OR to start [...]
Geez, can it really be so long since I last wrote? Amazing. This one I really had to share. Sometimes I lose sight of just how lucky I am, and it can be the smallest thing that reminds me. Here we live in a country of such abundance, and many of us are so spoiled, [...]
I just got back from a great conference hosted by Lisa Sasevich. It was interesting to see who was in the room, and what types of businesses were represented given her topic: Sales, which is quite a sweeping category. It was a great reminder for me that no matter what business you’re in, there is [...]
