The Land Of Purposeful Paradoxes - The Birthplace Of Your Divinely Inspired Life Purpose
Paradox is defined as something that appears to contradict itself, two statements that say opposite things and yet are both true. Something that seems to contradict itself and when heard together form a Truth. If there is such a thing as Truth in the cosmos, one of the most interesting places to find truth is in a paradox because like we said in our definition of a paradox, a paradox contains multiple truths. We as humans tend to want to see things as either/or, black or white. We are often uncomfortable with two things being true. We tend to want things one-way or the other. Do you have a FAVORITE paradox? Here are a few examples: "The more you learn, the less you know." Or "The more things change, the more they stay the same".... Or one of my personal favorites from Charles Dickens: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times".

Why Put Off Until Tomorrow What You Can Do Today
Ivy Ledbetter Lee was considered to be the father of public relations, even teaching the first PR class at New York University in 1912. He was a consultant for many business moguls of that time: Westinghouse, Lindbergh, Chrysler, and Charles M. Schwab. During his consultancy work for Bethlehem Steel, founded and run by Charles M. Schwab, Lee told president Schwab that, with all Bethlehem Steel accomplished and had to offer, he and his executives should have more effective management skills. Lee told Schwab, “"I can increase your people's efficiency – and your sales – if you will allow me to spend fifteen minutes with each of your executives."

Charles Schwabs Personal Life
The name Charles Robert Schwab may ring a bell. He is the founder and the CEO of the Charles Schwab Corporation and is famously known as a self-made man who is now worth over $6 billion. He is definitely an entrepreneur to look up to. However, despite his huge fortune, Charles Schwab’s personal life was not always as glamorous as it may seem today. Like many people who start their own business, Schwab never realized that he would become such a huge success.

The Power of the Word
Frequently we become so pragmatic we fail to be effective. A number of years ago the editor of the Dallas Morning News pointed out to the sports writers that “Bill” was not a suitable substitute for “William,” and “Charlie” was not a suitable substitute for “Charles.” Taking him literally, one of the sports writers, in the heyday of Doak Walker of Southern Methodist University, wrote about an important game. In his story he pointed out that in the third quarter Doak Walker had left the game with a “Charles horse.” I think you’ll agree that the story lost some meaning with the use of the word “Charles.”
Best Book on Painting Tips for Artists I Ever Read
TITLE: BEST BOOK ON PAINTING TIPS FROM CHARLES WEBSTER HAWTHORNE (1872-1930) As An artist and a writer, I study all the time the masters in those fields, those who struggled and won. Why? Because I am still struggling and need their tools to win. I recently read Charles Webster Hawthorne on Painting, collected by Mrs. Charles. W. Hawthorne with an Introduction by Edwin Dickinson, an Appreciation by Hans Hoffman, and Biographical Notes by Joseph Hawthorne, his son. These forty tools I gleaned from Hawthorne’s tips to help his students create more masterful paintings. In working to understand these forty tools, I felt like one of his students. I wish the same for you.
