Leadership Success Skills - Autumn is The New New Year
The other day I heard on the radio that autumn is the new New Year! It makes sense when you think about it. I think fall is a great time to re-evaluate and take an inventory on the successes and challenges of the year to date. Here are some questions and tips to ponder in the remaining months of the year.
Passive Solar or Energy Efficient Homes?
Generally speaking, a solar passive house is designed so that it does not require mechanical heating or cooling. Heating and cooling is managed through taking advantage of natural energy available on the site. This includes warm sunshine, allowing cooling breezes or eliminating cold winds. The advantages of solar passive design include improving the level of comfort in your home, reducing power bills as well as reducing greenhouse gas emissions from heating, cooling and lighting.

Success is Measured Between the Lines
Growing up, I often heard from my parents, teachers, and coaches, that I could be anything that I wanted to be, that success was within my grasp if I put my mind to it, worked and studied hard. “THINK BIG,” they said. I could be an accountant, lawyer, CEO, doctor, pilot, professional football player (my idea), ________ (you fill in the blank). Magazines, newspapers, radio and television screamed out and reinforced the idea that to be successful I had to own a big home, live in the best neighbourhood, drive a big car(s), eat at the best restaurants, join the best clubs, have season tickets to the theatre, travel to exotic climates.
