On today’s Friday Morning Show with Lisa Dutkiewicz, we explored your “Wholuck”. It’s the person who comes into your life and makes a positive significant change in your life. In order to get ready for this person in your life, it takes preparation. It takes nurturing your very being to become who you are meant […]
Have you felt there was something missing or too much of something in your diet? Are you craving some more vegetables? Ok, me neither…laughingly. Maybe it is the type of food you are not getting. So hard to put down the carbs and go for the leafs. Maybe it is a Ghiradelli mint chocolate sundae. […]
My mind is full, my heart is happy. Learning sends my mind on a journey like no other. Too many thoughts to share just one – other than the one on the video earlier today. Catch it if you haven’t already! This photo is Joe & I with Mike Kim. Paul Martinelli wrote an epilogue […]
Each person is their own superhero. When you are feeling down, you have a perceived “running on empty”. There is still a reserve too often overlooked. When you are feeling like nothing can get in your way to achieve your dream, to lead a team to the desired goal, to right a wrong in your […]
This afternoon I had the privilege of being asked to come back and lead a live group discussion of a company’s senior leaders. This week’s challenge for these leaders was to evaluate and refine their leadership philosophy and create leadership maxims to live and share with their direct team contacts as they* lead themselves* lead […]
When provided an opportunity that requires deep thinking, you might hear people say, “I am not creative”. Perhaps a person thinks that only artists are creative and they are not that artist. Human nature notes that all people are creative. We have to be to exist. Why back off in the workplace or downplay one’s […]
Remember back to the time when you were young and decided to build something or had a lemonade stand or maybe even built your first video? What happened? You probably grew your abilities and your deeper thinking. You embraced what you were building and made it your own. Are you still doing that today? if […]
What is said in the meetings you attend? Are there questions and discussions that open up discussion or do they lead to a frantic look at the clock? Try intentional questions, those that lead with a purpose. Questions done right lead to exploration and possibilities. When you feel the room isn’t using the power of the minds […]
Look around at work. You might see others just going through the motions of meeting their performance objectives. They might think if they sit straighter in their chair, hide their screen time and look interested, they will have a change in their results. Exercise goals at the beginning of the year are set with a […]
In getting to know people new to you, you seek as much information about them as you can get in that first opportunity. People desire to get comfortable with others and build a connection. People getting to success faster than others work on building trust faster than others. What are you doing today to build […]
Being successful in areas of responsibility whether at work or in the family requires something special. It requires going beyond just being, just attending to the myriad of things in your day. It requires focusing on higher things. Things that make a difference in the world of those that are impacted by you, like your […]
Have you said to yourself or someone else, “I need to get this perfect before _“? It might have been a test, a project, a painting, dinner. Maybe a presentation or speech. What happens? You put an expectation onto yourself that nothing less than something with zero error will do. There becomes a confusion between […]
In this collaboration age in order to pivot rather than perish, we need who you are. One thing is needed from you. That is to be all who you are. This is time to stand out and show your talents, skills, and leadership. In order to collaborate the following is needed: 1) clarity on who […]
Sometimes in my life, I found myself looking in at my life. I was looking toward my boss to show me my calendar for the day. It didn’t stop there. I had family and friends do it too. I was reserved. I then had to work hard to show my eagerness to please, to show […]
