Have you ever had a big decision to make? How did you go about it?
At some point did you make a list of pros and cons, or some other logical analysis, that tipped you towards the answer the numbers pointed to?
I don’t think I can do it. It’s too high. The rock is too slippery. “Here, give me your arm, I’ll pull you up.” No, I’m too heavy. You’ll pull your shoulder out. (…trying again for a foot hold on the slimy rock) I don’t think I can do this. (Sobbing) “Just give me your
Last week I had the immense pleasure of serving as a team leader for a diverse group of Army and Marine veterans at Semper Fi Odyssey Leadership camp. The program re-energizes their warrior spirit and helps them create a plan to move their life forward through rebuilding family relationships, going back to school, pursuing a

By one bit of security is a good cell signal and google maps. (How did we get along without google maps before???) I’m in Lisbon, Portugal, the
I recently lost a very good friend to cancer, someone I had known for close to 40 years. My friend was a dynamic spirit who filled her life with adventures. At her celebration ceremony, many people from different interests in her life came forward to share the piece of Valerie that they knew. Her whitewater
When was the last time you played with your food? I was in Santa Fe NM recently on a long weekend vacation with my sisters. Santa Fe is known as an art community and the three of us are pretty far from being art aficionados. To really experience the vibe of the place I signed
“That’s who I am. They will just have to learn to deal with it.” That was the self-justification of a manager proclaiming her ‘authenticity’ and leaving a trail of employees reeling and ducking for cover. This person voiced whatever came to her mind, often with hurtful impact. That was ‘being real’ in her view. At
