 Drucker was the 20th century guru of utilizing management in order to create a fine tuned organization. Although his quote was directed at business it also may be applied to your personal life. Building strong character, whether it be the character of an organization or department you are leading, or your own life, requires…
Work and Wait

Yesterday I achieved a goal I set for myself a couple of years ago. I completed a ½ Ironman Triathlon distance race twice in one month…so I could say I did a full Ironman (2.4mi swim, 112mi bike, 26.2mi run) in one month. This particular goal took me three years longer than I wanted because…
Hopes and Fears

 I believe personal integrity is built by keeping one promise at a time. The most important promises we make and keep are the promises we make to ourselves. We live in a nation of gluttony where we are addicted to things that make us feel better and I believe this gluttony is simply a…

Character
“Character is doing the right thing for the right reason regardless of what the world and others may think about you.” ~JJM Yesterday, for some reason, I thought it would be good to go back to a blog about character that I created a few years ago and read it and see how I was…
“Supposed to Be” ain’t all what it’s made up to be…
“What screws us up most in life is the picture in our head of how it’s supposed to be.” ~Unknown I used to struggle with “how it’s supposed to be,” but today I’ve chosen a simple picture in my head that I try to continuously strive for and the picture is created from the teachings of the…
