It’s a Sin to Settle on a Smaller Dream

April 12, 2010

Do you ever give up a dream? Make a compromise that seems too much like a major sacrifice? Do you stop thinking of yourself and make decisions for others? When it comes to planning ahead for the future, we want to accomplish everything that we were told we could do since we were kids. Being […]

I Don’t Know What That Means

April 9, 2010

When did we stop good-old-fashioned learning? Yes, we pick up business skills and lessons from life experiences, but when was the last time you picked up a text book or academic journal?

What a Waste

March 31, 2010

There’s something that I see happen all the time: the waste of potential. You’d think with the recession that companies would have figured out the extra skill sets people have. Nope. It doesn’t even have to be employers. There are tons of people who could do amazing things…and they don’t. There are two major ways […]

A Brand that Lasts Beyond a Lifetime

March 29, 2010

“Here’s looking at you, kid.” Wow. Just, wow. That line means a little something to everyone. It could be the memory of a first date, the comfort after a break up, or the suave idol a guy hoped to be. You never have to see the whole movie (though you should), but Casablanca is an […]
