Are You a Slave to Consumerism?

May 12, 2010

I want you to do a little exercise. Walk around your home and note all the different things that you never use or almost never use. Walk from room to room. Go through your closets, your garage, your attic, your basement, your storage shed, or wherever else you have anything stored. Even review your computer [...]

Solving My Personal Little Energy Crisis

May 6, 2010

I have mentioned in previous posts that I have been suffering from fatigue lately. It’s a problem that has afflicted me on a cyclical basis for quite a few years now. There is no known medical reason why I should suffer from fatigue. I do think that stress exacerbates it, but there have been times [...]

SERENITY NOW! SERENITY NOW!

May 5, 2010

Yesterday I was stressed out beyond belief. I was extremely fatigued, and I couldn’t focus. A great deal of the time my job is like “drinking water from a fire hose,” meaning that there is so much coming at me that it can easily be overwhelming. If I’m not in a strong mental and physical [...]

Would You Live Differently if You Were Dying?

April 29, 2010

Back in early 2008, I heard about a remarkable 47-year-old man named Randy Pausch. Randy was dying of pancreatic cancer. This is the most deadly form of cancer, with only about a 4% survival rate after 5 years. This deadly disease did take his life on July 25, 2008. Randy wasn’t remarkable because he had [...]

The Importance of not Overcommitting to a Strategy

April 28, 2010

Yesterday I talked about The Importance of Committing to a Strategy. An equally important point to remember is to avoid overcommitting to a strategy. You overcommit to a strategy whenever you stick with an ineffective strategy for an extended period of time. It is understandable why we might not commit to a new strategy for [...]
