Be Expansive In Your Thinking

January 4, 2008

Recently, like yesterday, I was turned on to the idea of thinking expansively. Not that I have never thought expansively or ‘large’ before but my atypical, life-long, conditioned modus-operandi is to hyper focus much like a meerkat. The meerkat is always hyper vigilant and looking for what may lurk on the horizon. The meerkat is [...]

Less Than 12 Hours Left To 2007…

December 31, 2007

2007 was a professionally prosperous and personally challenging year. I am glad it is about to go into the history books. In business I learned a great deal about attention, focus, and negotiation.

Overwhelmed? Me too.

November 12, 2007

Meetings, email, projects, laundry, dinner, kids, cell phone ringing! Don’t pull the alarm yet. They all demand your time and attention many at the same time as each other. No wonder our sleep-deprived lives are fueled by a steady diet of caffeine all the while stumbling around dazed and confused. I recently read an article [...]

Over-thinking to Non-thinking

September 25, 2007

I was thinking about the post from yesterday (talk about irony). It would be interesting if we could somehow measure the speed at which we think—a speedometer to thought. Perhaps this exists in the world of neuroscience and I’ll admit I’m too tired from thinking to go and do the research on this. This speedometer [...]

Logic please come to my emotional rescue

September 17, 2007

How often do your emotions take over and hijack your better judgment? I would say quite often for most people unless you are Spock or a tree. I have been struggling between allowing logic instead of emotion rule the day in given situations. Many times emotion will come in and take up all the air [...]

Summer is over. What happened? Where am I now?

September 11, 2007

These are very good questions. What did happen to the summer? It was filled with family, traveling, and a great deal of work. What it was not filled with, unfortunately, was a great deal of blogging. For some strange reason I feel guilty for not writing. Weird. So, where am I now? I have been [...]
