Turning Potential Into Results
They’re coming! Whoa..They’re here!
The Holidays. Family gatherings. Gift giving. Travel. Perhaps just reading these words stresses you out a little. If I added “The Mall” to the list, I’m betting “a little” might be replaced by “a lot”! Regardless of what this season means to you, whether you are looking forward to it or pulling up the cushions…
Read MoreFind your edge, Ring your bell
When visiting last week, my two AZ nieces demonstrated the job of a kid: try stuff and see what happens. It’s a job for adults, too. The 7 and 10 year-old were in constant motion – boogie boarding, cart wheeling, tree climbing. We took them to the Pacific Edge. Fearlessly and with big grins, they…

Read MoreRiddle:What time will it be when the future shows up?
In December’s column, Big Enough Why?, I invited you to shift from making resolutions to creating a Big Enough WHY? for 2012 — a shift from being resolved (with crossed fingers) to being committed.

Read MoreBright side of BurnOut: How to fix it! (Part1)
No energy. No interest. Snapping at loved ones. Sleepless nights. Being burned out is a drag. Staying burnout out isn’t cool either and it’s avoidable if you Stop-Drop-Roll-Go. Let’s face it: All of us are affected by the economic slowdown. We take on more and take less care of ourselves, burning out in the process.…

Read MoreHow to Reach Metaphorical Mountain Tops at Work
Today’s workers are being asked to do more with less, to reach higher goals with fewer resources and in less time.
