I’m going to admit right off the bat I have watched almost all of Tom Cruise’s movies. And, I will also admit to liking most of his films. There’s action. There’s intrigue. There’s mayhem. There’s his silly grin that actually annoys me but tends to work in his […]
There are a lot of thieves out there. People who take great glee in taking from you. Sounds bitter? Rings of truth? Could go either way. There are a lot of people out there who want to stamp out your fire. Not a blazing, scary, wild fire. But […]
Here’s a short and sweet (actually more like prune juice) bit of advice for consideration: ignore gossip! Here’s the thing. Those who gossip to you, gossip about you. Plain and simple. Gossip is currency and hardly anyone gives anything away for free. Gossipers are gnats. They are moving […]
In the United States, and especially in non-profits, titles are a funny thing. They are sour grapes layered in molasses with a sprinkling of unwarranted narcissism. Yes a mouthful. Maybe not even understandable. Americans put a lot of weight behind a title. Self worth is tied to salary, […]
Everyone everywhere is gaslighting every other person from the chandeliers down to the gravel. It’s inescapable. As such, one must evolve at a rapid pace. Many years ago, in providing someone a performance appraisal I advised them that they had to get better at bullshitting. It may sound […]

In most of my email correspondence, I’m rather polite and somewhat sunny. I wish people a good day, morning, Friday eve and so forth. It’s fluff. Not straight to the point. However, you get a little bit more buy in when you start off with warmer pleasantries than […]
When the television show the Flash first came, I loved it. Brought new energy. New story lines with good arcs. A surprise villain. A good recipe for a new show in a franchise. It has not outlasted its companion shows (other then DC Legends) but I barely recognize […]

Everything these days is about sustainability or so say millions of people. If something is sustainable it is able to be maintained at the current […]
