The Value of a College Education
I've been a long-time supporter of college education. I think that a college degree puts you so far ahead in life that it's utterly necessary in today's competitive business world.

There is No Such Thing as Work Life Balance
Have you ever seen those acrobats balance themselves one on top of the other? How long do we expect them to stay balanced like that? Not very long, right? We think it's amazing if they last just a few seconds! Why then do we think we should be able to stay in a constant state of balance? They're EXPERTS at balancing and they only do it for moments at a time. Maybe it's time we came up with some new expectations and drop this "should" in the toilet where it belongs.

When a book is finished
It takes a long time to finish a book. Even after it’s done it isn’t finished. It lingers in you for a long, long time. Even then, after you think it’s gone, it isn’t.

If Time is the New Currency... is Technology Robbing Us Blind?
Time is money... the expression is as old as the day is long... and yet these days, "the day" is not nearly as long as we need it to be to get everything done that we want to do. If that sentence made your head spin a little, chances are it's because, like most of us, you're caught up in the usual rush, rush, rush that has become your expected mode of operation. No matter where we turn, it seems like everyone has an amazing new product or tool that's designed to make life easier and save everyone a ton of time. And yet, our precious minutes just seem to slip away, despite our every effort to "own" our own time.

Support for your Business…Starting at Home
As things have been a bit crazy around our house since starting a home based business, I have been thinking how lucky and blessed that I am to have a husband who is supportive in my business endeavors. I hear time and time again from women that their spouses are not only unsupportive, but in fact they tease, taunt and try to make their wives feel like they are silly to even attempt a business. My heart goes out to these women, and it saddens me to hear stories like this. It is difficult to pursue a dream when the person who is to be your closest friend and supporter acts just the opposite. I sometimes wonder why some spouses act this way, but will never fully understand. I can only assume a variety of reasons: jealousy, fear of change, feelings of neglect.

The Consequence of Leadership Incompetence
How do you identify a member of your management team that just doesn’t get it when it comes to getting their employees to release their discretionary energy that is critical to success especially during the turbulent times we are facing in 2009-2010? Sometimes these individuals that don’t get it exist simply because they have been around a long time. I often have CEOs tell me about problems with specific managers that aren’t promoting the vision, values or core principles of the company. The majority of the time these managers have been around a long time.

Koch Industries Destroys the Environment and Funds Climate Denial
Koch Industries is the second largest privately held company in America and as revealed by Greenpeace they are guilty of crimes against the environment as well as being a leading supporter of climate denial groups. Their diversified holdings are a virtual top ten list of the most environmentally destructive sectors of the economy they are also pouring almost $50 million dollars per year into climate denial misinformation.

Why You Need To Bring Home The Bacon
Why YOU Need To Bring Home The Bacon for your family...if you do not, nobody else is going to do it! There used to be a time when all we were required to do once we came into this world, was to go to school, get a good education, get a JOB and then retire with a gold watch and a "pension" That was true a long, long time ago.

Support Local Businesses - Drive, Learn, and GROW
Have you ever driven by a little store and decided to finally drop in and asked “how long have you been here?” and they reply “years”? And isn’t it embarrassing that you thought they had only been there a few months or just opened? With my daughter owning her little Toy Store, I realized that I have NOT been the best supporter of other local businesses. It’s too easy for us to go to a one stop “Big Box” store to do our shopping and it squelches our learning, our exposure, and our FUN. So this year I’ve decided that at least 1 day a week I’m stopping at those little “emerging” businesses and supporting them. I’m going in and often times when I ask “are you the owner” I hear “YES!” I then tease about their “cot” being in the back room. It’s always my pleasure to say – I’m a business owner too – congratulations on your
