Stronger together

Stronger Together When I was a commercial fisherman in Alaska, all the lines we used were three stranded (cowboys use ropes, fishermen use lines). It took an amazing amount of pressure to break those lines. And sometimes one strand would break but the other two allowed the line to still function until we could repair […]
Well-wishing vs support
May 27, 2018 by Leave a Comment
Well-wishing vs support There’s a huge difference between wishing someone well and actively and intentionally supporting that person. When we are willing to inconvenience ourselves, when we are willing to go that extra mile, when we are willing to spend some of our precious time on another person – then our ability to really contribute […]

Contribution We are wired to contribute and make a difference. It is as natural as breathing. When we are not doing that, we suffer and typically our self-worth takes a hit. So, when we are feeling kind of puny, a great question to ask ourselves is, “Where can I make a difference?” Then go and […]
Darkness flashlight

Darkness flashlight Imagine a darkness flashlight that projects more darkness rather than light. The uses for this would be rather limited and most of the time it would just make things worse.

Win or be the star Would you rather win or be the star? Do you prefer the credit or the desired outcome? Ego, which is driven by our insecurities, is desperate for credit, recognition, and the spot light. This can often get in the way of the desired outcome. I’ve seen this many times on […]
