Tuesday, July 6th, 2010In a recent discussion I heard those infamous words…”I said Thank you! (Note: This person was pouting with arms crossed at the time.) What do you mean I’m not grateful.” For any person listening within eye shot of this blog, please take a minute to consider something about ourselves. We are creatures of our own [...]
Gotta love quotes…
Thursday, April 22nd, 2010OK…I’ll admit it—I am a sucker for quotes. I can be having a tough day and a quote can fill me with hope and change my energy. I’m a quote addict!
Which brings me to …a quote that inspired me yesterday.

Long Time No See::
Thursday, April 15th, 2010Well, what can I say? Life has pushed and pulled in so many different directions that I didn’t want to write what I was unsure of. So let me first start by saying this….Damn those monster waves!!!
I can’t remember now how many presentations I have given where I have looked into the eyes of hundreds [...]
Where are the customer service gods when you need them?
Friday, March 5th, 2010“What is your return policy if we are not happy with the fabric quality of these pants?

You Exhibitionist, You!
Friday, January 29th, 2010Words and meanings, oh we could write a book on the funny mistakes that we make when our own words trip us up and land us on America’s funniest audios. Yesterday I spoke to a group of sales people – actually it was the trade show exhibitors for RCMA. As I arrived early I got [...]
Weird O
Friday, January 22nd, 2010Ahhh…another find for those of you who want to lead the crowd in the weirdness category. What if you changed your boring paper business cards to plastic? I stumbled on this company that prints your business cards on different thicknesses of plastic. Talk about memorable?
You can design them with a clear background or a white [...]
How thin are you?
Monday, January 18th, 2010This post is not meant to be a weight loss inspirational message. Go to Weight Watchers if you are looking for that kind of help. Rather, my question is to get you to stop and think about how you give of yourself to others. So, how thin are you being spread amongst your circle of [...]
