Newsletter

It’s been a while. I go through bouts of inspiration like anyone else, and sometimes there just isn’t anything there. I try not to mail unless there is something worthwhile to say. I [...]

How Can I Support You? It’s a really powerful question right? Suppose instead of exchanging business cards, or rambling about your business triumphs, the next time you find yourself [...]

Last weekend I have the good fortune to speak to Gary Vaynerchuk TWICE in the same day. It was magical! LOL. One of my fav questions to ask people is for their fav books. I knew Gary wasn’t [...]

A quick thank you for sticking around to hear me out, even when I ramble. This newsletter has been a wonderful creative outlet for me. There is something about sending it out into the abyss that [...]

I recently finished reading (for the way to many-ith time) The Alliance. Most of it anyways; the important bits. I am one of those people that would get up and walk out of a movie theatre if I [...]

I gather there must be a least a few of you that aren’t reading as much as you’d like to, or perhaps not at all. That’s alright, been there done that. For me, it changed when a) [...]

It’s quite clear or should be, there is never a shortage of opportunities. If you feel differently you are either looking in the wrong place or not looking at all. The challenge is rarely [...]

The items that we keep and cherish often say a lot about us...

I like the premise of Tim Ferriss’ Five Bullet Fridays. I will admit I’ve yet to subscribe, but I think I have an idea of what lies on the other side of that email opt-in. So, in [...]

There is this spider outside my window (the actual damn thing ^^) that does not give up. Each day, Vancouver’s rain will destroy his web, and at least once per day, I see him rebuild it. [...]

I've made it my mission to be in a constant state of discomfort and chaos.
