One of the things that I realize is that sometimes we waste a lot of time on things that distract our attention from us working on our goals and dreams. Let me ask you a question. When working on a project, do you constantly have things getting in your way of what you REALLY need [...]
It happens to the best of us! At some points in our life, we are going to burn-out or totally get knocked down from something that we felt was going to work out but didn't. Our confidence gets rocked and we feel like all the efforts we put into something was a waste of time. [...]
This is always a busy time of year. Between holiday shopping, cooking, attending holiday parties and finishing up client work, there seems not to be much other time to think about anything else. But I do think about something else. Always at this time, I review what my goals were for the year; and see what I accomplished [...]
It's amazing how hard we can be on ourselves sometimes, isn't it? Why do we do it? We know it's unreasonable and shouldn't be doing it. But it seems like for so many of us, it's in our nature to take care of everyone else first and leave ourselves last. I want you to take a moment [...]
I am driven. I am motivated. I am a self-starter. If someone says I can't do something, watch out because I am going to prove that 'yes I can' do it.

For a while now, I had been looking to freshen up my website. I wanted to have more inspirational colors on the template. It was time!

When it was completed, I absolutely fell in love [...]

Each day we have a choice on what we put our mind to. And what we put our mind to is where we put our action to! So how are you going to spend this year? You've got one life, so stop wasting time! Focus on the things you really need to do. Do you need ideas or [...]
As you are reading this post, you might be thinking that you only have a few precious seconds to read this, then need to get on with your crazy, busy day. I get it. But I am going to ask you to really read this post. Why am I asking you to 'really' read this post today? Because [...]
The word 'perfection'. It's a great sounding word to many of us, to include myself (or at least it used to be). Even though I know that no one is perfect, to me it had always meant excellence; being the best at your craft, not settling for the ordinary, but being extraordinary. It was mastering a skill that you [...]
