I've been paying $8.16 for 18 eggs at my usual grocery store. I happened to be at a different store yesterday morning, and to my surprise the same quantity + quality of eggs were $4.59.
This is a big difference! And they weren't even on special sale or anything!
The $8.16 price I've been paying was a...
I got to watch Chris do a fun thing yesterday! He randomly got the chance to fill in as a caddy for a friend-of-a-friend who's a professional golfer on the Senior PGA tour, and it was like watching a kid on Christmas. He had the best time.
And he was great at it! He did his homework to understand h...
I had a prospective client consultation yesterday, during which she shared that she actually found me through... wait for it... ChatGPT. (!!?) It blew my mind!
I didn't have a ChatGPT marketing strategy; heck, I've barely had any kind of marketing strategy for my web design business, other than word...
One of my favorite stories in the scriptures is of a man who is instructed by God to build a ship to transport his family across the sea. This man had never built a ship, but he didn't use that as an excuse. His first question in response was, "Where should I go to find ore, to molten and build tool...
Doubt and Possibility are sisters, both from the same mother: Imagination.
Doubt uses the imagination to look at how something might be wrong. Possibility considers the negatives, but also imagines the potential positives. Doubt avoids most disaster, but also avoids living. Possibility enjoys much g...
Guess what!? I've been posting to my blog for 100 days straight!
It's something I've intended to do for a LONG time, ever since hearing Seth Godin recommend it for people who are ready to launch into "shipping" mode. Call it fear, call it self-doubt, call it laziness, or just hiding behind busy-ness....
If you're on the dance floor and you want to dance a slow song, you have options:
- Stand there and hope someone asks you
- Leave the room and prevent possible heartbreak altogether
- Find someone and ask them.
Strategy #1 works sometimes.
Strategy #2 works every time, but toward a totally differe...
Our twins had state testing this week for Algebra, and there was quite a bit of panic in the air the night before. We tried to assure them that they should be fine as long as they'd been keeping up with their classwork, but still felt a bit stressed.
I thought back to my school days, and remembered ...
I've discovered a simple way to instantly transform ordinary daily tasks from feeling boring and mundane to feeling absolutely epic.
Chores, emails, errands, challenging work projects, paying bills, shaving your legs... it works for all of it. And it's just 2 words:
Cinematic music.
You turn it on in ...
Fog looks thick and mysterious when you first approach it. As you move forward a step at a time, your visibility is limited, but you can usually see at least a little way in front of you. And it turns out that's enough. A verse of a favorite hymn comes to mind when I think about this idea:
Lead, ...
It's really easy to make decisions based on our backstory (who we were in the past). We have clear, often recent, evidence of what worked--or didn't work--for us and what we were capable of.
The problem with that, though, is there isn't room for much growth. Maybe we try to do a little better than w...
I love learning from nature and animals. I think they're a gift from God, to help guide us and teach us eternal principles during this Earth experience.
One thing I'm learning is through our new puppy, Charlie, who is 7 months old now. She is so full of life and love! Each member of our party of 6 g...
