I was just thinking about…
This entire post is inspired by and drawn from Seth Godin, Austin Kleon and Steven Pressfield. The more of your stuff that I read, the better I become. I just need to ship it! A while back, I took a career break and during that time, I did so many things, certainly more than expected.... Continue Reading →
A friend of mine is taking a 12-month work break soon. As exciting as this opportunity sounds, for the person doing it, it is normally full of unease, with more questions that answers. What if it is a mistake? What if I miss work? Will this affect my career? How will I afford this time... Continue Reading →

Six riders, five snowmobiles, four snowboard rides, three powder boards, two Go-Pros, one great day. An excellent, raw and authentic day with so many great... Continue Reading →
I am writing a fiction book this year. Been talking about it for so long and the time is right. The time has always been right but the excuses have always won out. But more about that another day. So I sit in front of my computer and start typing. So far so good, my... Continue Reading →
