  • Life isn’t that

    It’s tempting to think that life is as simple as doing this results in that. That if you will just work so hard, you will become successful. That if you will just put in all the effort, you will be met with equal generosity. But with an honest evaluation, life isn’t always like that. Some… Read more

  • Learning something for the first time

    It’s always a challenge to understand that 1 plus 1 is equal to 2, especially when it’s your first time hearing about the concept of addition. As the lessons progress to 2 times 2 is equal to 4, you open yourself up to more and more ideas, possibilities, and connections. And then you begin to… Read more

  • Doing your best

    Doing your best is as important as seeking to serve the very people you want to reach. I can remember how the referral from a delighted customer kept a food business moving and growing.

  • Facebook world vs. real world

    I don’t know how much of your life you put out on social media. But I think we both agree that the things we post on social media don’t always translate to what happens with our everyday lives. And that in every happy couple photo you see on your friend’s timeline doesn’t mean that they… Read more

  • Our obsession with measurements

    Chasing the leaderboard sometimes undermines our ability to produce valuable content. Because instead of doing the work that changes a culture, we succumb to producing content that gets more likes, listens, or hits. And remember school? Some people, instead of studying to learn, they are studying to pass. And that’s becoming a problem as others… Read more
