Impossible Achievements
Last weekend, I did something that I thought was impossible. I broke a piece of wood into two pieces with my bare hand. I was in total shock afterward, but a good kind of shock. Breaking that wood was such a stretch for me that afterward, my mind started to play tricks on me. I wondered if I did really do it. Luck for me, there was a room full of people watching me and could verify that I did actually do it. AND I have the piece of wood to prove it!

How Middle Managers are Key to Company Success
In hierarchal organizations, strategic intent flows from the top, while tactical implementation is carried out at the bottom. In the middle of the flow are middle managers: first- second- and third tier supervisors, managers and senior managers who are mandated to proactively deliver the planned strategy's goals. The challenge is that the bulk of their energy is spent tactically (and often) reactively responding to pressures from customers, subordinates, peers and their boss. In fact, how the middle manager responds on a moment-by-moment basis is more impactful to a strategy's success (and an organization's cohesion) than the communication of the plan in the first place.
The Great Secrets of a True Leader

Good Debt, Bad Debt: Know the difference
Does debt make you richer or poorer? Ask a poor or middle class man, and he will say it makes me poorer. Ask the rich, and he will say that it makes me richer. Why are the answers at the opposite ends of the spectrum? The reason why the answers differ is because of the kind of debt that each class refers to. The poor and the middle class look at all debts are ‘bad’ debts, whereas the rich look at debts as ‘good’ debts. Now, what’s the difference between ‘Bad’ and ‘Good’ debts? The former takes money out of your pocket, whereas the latter puts money in your pocket. Understanding this fundamental difference will do you a whale of good when it comes to financial management. Let’s explore further.

Many managers in leadership roles have stunted personal growth. Their "years of leadership experience and learning" is formal education (usually technical and/or management) followed by a year or two of experience multiplied twenty or thirty times. Here's an all too typical dinner conversation I had with a senior manager in the middle of a two-day improvement workshop I was running with a senior management team. The company was in crisis. It was struggling just to stay even in its industry.

Middle Class Is Failing
The middle class concept is failing millions of people because it is based on myths and formulas that worked for our parents but will no longer prove successful today.
