It’s day #9 of 2018 and a few things have become a part of my reality. I needed to share them with you. 1. Who knew that the coffee you make at home could taste as awesome as the coffee at the coffee shop? I honestly feel as though I’ve been depriving myself of a…

Apologize. Please.
I read a great article in the December issue of Entrepreneur and I said, “self, share the highlights with your network!” Here it is! Are you surprised by the Forum Corporation’s findings that only 19% of all leader apologize regularly? Me either. 1. Studies show that leaders who apologize are perceived as stronger leaders. 2….

Holiday Break Goals?
Sorry. This will be contrary to what the average person has planned, but have you considered vacation day goals? The holidays will bring lots of opportunities to do little AND to do a lot. You could make a reasonable list of things you wish to accomplish and reward yourself for the accomplishments! For me, the…

Do. The. Work.
I vividly recall being the kid with a lot of follow-up questions. I think I may be the reason my grandmother had little tolerance for my quick rebuttals. I had such a passionate belief that asking for clarification was the way to prove I was listening. Grandmother didn’t quite see it that way. Aside from the…
Book Review: Debbie Doesn’t Do it Anymore
I’m not a huge fan of fiction. I never liked Hotwheels that were not like cars you couldn’t see on the street… But I like Walter. I like good stories about redemption. I like thoughtful writing. I like riches-to-rags-to-riches stories. I like learning. So… I’m giving this book a go. Check out the description. Book…
The Change Challenge
I am not sure if Maya Angelou said it first but I’m sure she said it. She said, “when people show you who they are, believe them.” As simple of a concept as it seems, it’s the hardest truth to swallow. We tend to want to believe that people have temporary failures that don’t completely…
LESSONS FROM CLEANING OUT MY CAR
Yesterday, I had the misfortune of losing my keys at a local restaurant. After hours of searching, I conceded. Kind and friends from church made it possible for my car to be towed to my place. It takes about 24 hours to recover, get new keys, change locks, etc. The last 24 hour hours certainly…
