At the end of last year, I decided to select a word for the new year (meaning this year). That word for the year is “joy”. I wanted to be purposeful in seeking joy and being joyous. Sometimes we get too bogged down in drama and inertia. An […]
Say what you will about Vanilla Ice, he had one thing right. We all need to hit the pause button. Well, he actually noted that we needed to “stop, collaborate, and listen“. Go figure. That is actually quite sound advice. Especially nowadays. We shall ignore the rest of […]
