Monday Motivation – Open on Thanksgiving
Seven to eight years ago I remember being unemployed. I had never had trouble getting a job and I would have taken any job but could not get hired for even $10 per hour because I was ‘over qualified’.

Monday Motivation – Keep Moving Forward
I came home and got out of my car and there was this big bug on the back door and I realized it was a grasshopper. I got a broom and swatted him off of the door so I could get into the house. I didn’t want to kill him but did not want himContinue reading “Monday Motivation – Keep Moving Forward”
Expectations
A week or so ago a colleague said to me “you expect too much from other people” and I thought hard for a moment and then it hit me that I expect a lot from myself most often. It was an ‘aha! moment. I responded “well, that’s because I expect a lot from myself”. TheyContinue reading “Expectations”
