YOUR HEALTH I have a confession to make. Somewhere along the line, food has become way more important than it should be. I think it all began when we moved to Texas. My friend Harvey Dickerson was right when he had concerns about two mountain-loving people moving to the flat lands. Living […]

YOUR HEALTH During a visit with dear friend, Jane Gordon, she shared with me a way she calms her spirit when sleep will not come. She will visualize the worry or concern as a tennis ball, and she will take her hand and swat that ball back to God. She’s had to warn […]

YOUR HEALTH As you may or may not know, I teach yoga a couple times a week. I tell students we will stretch, strengthen, and stabilize every class. Most importantly, we will practice proper breathing. Once the doors close, we concentrate on inhaling deeply and exhaling out completely. It takes work because most people […]
We Get What We Give
Wherever I go these days, businesses are complaining about how they can’t get people to work. We are all paying the price of businesses being short-handed: long lines and waits, confusion and chaos, bad customer service from lack of training, and actual closures or loss of services completely.

Performance Should Matter
I know I am not the only person shaking their head wondering, “What the heck happened?” When I was in corporate American, you either did your job right, or you didn’t have a job. If you didn’t show up for work, you considered yourself fired. But apparently, we care more about being politically correct […]

Do You Have a Ant Hill or a Team?
I believe former President Bill Clinton is quoted as saying, “If everyone on your team looks and acts just like you, you don’t have a team – you have an ant hill,” or something to that effect. He’s right! Unfortunately, many leaders are more comfortable with a carbon copy of themselves than their opposite. People […]
