I’ve heard that leaders are learners. I will add to that….
Leaders are Ceaseless Learners.
We get so comfortable being who we are and doing what we are already so good at that we forget to intentionally learn. For myself, I am intentionally setting up the next three or four weeks [...]

If I were you (and I’m not), here are some questions I would ask myself re:anything important….
•Is the the best I can do?
•Is there someone else I can involve?
•What are my motives?
•How can I get my point across clearly?
•How will someone be motivated by this?
•How could this have any unintentional undesired side effects?
•Where is my [...]

Nearly a month ago I decided to try an experiment with my writings. For a month, write things that people other than myself, will value, learn from, and things that might even start a decent convo.
I switched a simple white layout. I would rarely include videos or pictures (which is [...]

Be unique. Find new ways to use existing technologies.
Make your business more accessible. People want to ‘know’ your business. Get to know them!

• Deliver. Pizza has [...]

Listen. If you’re message isn’t stepping on a few toes, perhaps your vision isn’t large enough. Big dreams step on people’s toes. Outside of the box ideas step on toes.
