Managing Change: The Art of Letting Go
Oct 9, 2013 3:41:52 PM I was thinking this week about what it’s like to let go of life. A morbid thought, but an appropriate one based on what is happening in my extended family right now. My Uncle ended his battle this week with cancer, and he fought hard with both grace and dignity. […]
Purpose: Will it matter that I was?
Jun 25, 2008 10:02:57 PM This blog matters! It matters because I matter, and so do you. As humans we are constantly on the hunt to create meaning. From the time we are babies we take in and categorize information and make it mean something, even when it doesn’t. We do all of this in […]
Rock Your World
Rock Your World Jun 30, 2008 10:04:03 PM Clarity about who I am and my life’s work has been a work in process. I heard Malcolm Gladwell speak at the 2008 ASTD conference in San Diego. He described genius as either being quickly brought into form, or taking a long time to develop. On one […]

Riding My Bike
Riding My Bike Jul 17, 2008 10:17:53 PM I haven’t taken the time to ride my bike all year, until this morning. Wow! I rode down to the middle school where my 12 year old had an early track practice. Coming back up the hill toward home, it was tough. My legs were burning. I realized how […]
Vegetable Wisdom
Vegetable Wisdom Jul 25, 2008 10:04:39 PM Last night I picked up our weekly share of vegetables from a local organic farm. One of my favorite things about arriving at the pick-up spot is that first glance inside the box. It feels a bit like Christmas has arrived and that moment has finally come when […]
Letting Go
Letting Go Aug 7, 2008 10:05:14 PM I’m having a garage sale this weekend. I’ve never had one before, so this is a first. My family has spent the last six weeks sorting out closets and storage areas. We have accumulated piles of “stuff” over the ten years we’ve lived in this house, and truth […]
The Values Lens
The Values Lens Aug 15, 2008 10:05:46 PM I’ve noticed that when I’m challenged about the choices I should make, it’s a signal for me to look at the situation through the lens of my values. I was reminded again of this approach this week. My husband has been struggling with a situation, and he took a stand based […]
Looking for the Good Stuff
Looking for the Good Stuff Aug 15, 2008 10:07:08 PM I notice that I spend too much time looking for trouble. I pay extra special attention to what I’m not doing as well as I could. For example, I could eat better, exercise more, or clean out my in-box. I could keep the house cleaner and more […]
Synchronicity

Carl Jung When we are clear about our intention magic happens. When we know what we want, we can see the doors or the windows of opportunity opening up before us. This […]
