The Parable of Brother Leo

I have decided to take a small break from writing my blog for a while, to concentrate on others parts of my business.  I will still post content that I consider inspirational, controversial or simply thought-provoking on here.  Today’s post is  from Michael Josephson of www.charactercounts.org. A legend tells of a French monastery known throughout [...]

Senior Executives…All Alone

V – Vanquish your Vagueness

V Vanquish your Vagueness Are you one of those people who when asked something says “Mmm…..we’ll see” or “Let me think about that” or “Can I get back to you about that?” and promptly file it in your “Let’s Forget All About It box”, because you don’t want to make a decision?  You might be [...]

Don’t Force It…Live In The Moment

I was supposed to blog again yesterday – if I’m to follow my  plan of blogging every three days.  I didn’t and for a variety of reasons.  One was I completely forgot about it.  I was busy with other things and my mind was not on blogging, so it didn’t get done.  By the time [...]

U – Understand your Unconscious

U Understand your Unconscious We all have a conscious mind and an unconscious mind.  Our conscious mind is the bit we are aware of, hence “conscious” mind.  Our unconscious mind is the bit we are not aware of, hence “unconscious” mind.  And our unconscious does so much for us and of course until we are [...]
