Good Monday morning. A slight change to “The Go-Giver Thank YOU” Contest. We have become aware that Apple does not allow their iPads® to be used in third party promotions or contests (Guidelines for Third Party Promotions). Recently, several friends emailed us an article stating that giving away a free iPad 2 as a prize…
In a post from last year entitled, Belief Systems, I included what I call the Four Clarifying Questions. These are questions you can ask yourself whenever you are involved in an interpersonal conflict. When I recently posted them on my Facebook page, we received a lot of response. And, it’s not necessary to read the…
I received a very cool email the other day from Becky Hetrick, who was in charge of leading a committee. This was for a fundraising event to support one of the local charities served by the organization she belongs to. She’d had some major concern as to whether the event would be successful. Her challenges…
The book being discussed today breaks my heart. Not because I didn’t enjoy it. On the contrary, I loved it! Totally enjoyed the message. It breaks my heart because the topic is of such importance that — in my opinion — the title must accurately reflect the message… I don’t believe it does. Leadership Is…

What is your take on it?” The saying itself is usually muttered in frustration after doing something genuinely nice and having it come back to hurt or…
I received a letter from a reader who was totally frustrated and disappointed. “I didn’t succeed” she wrote, “no matter how you want to look at it.” Basically, she had made a deal for a home loan rate with a mortgage broker who didn’t follow through and complete the paperwork. At closing, she was hit…
The Sages said, “Be a judge; not a lawyer.” What does this mean and how does it help us become the most effective and successful person possible? On a surface level and when directed at an actual judge, the advice is obvious. Whereas a lawyer is paid to win the case for his or her…
In Tim Sanders‘ terrific new book, Today We Are Rich: Harnessing The Power Of Total Confidence, he talks about being a “builder of ideas” as opposed to a “destroyer of dreams.” He suggests being a “partner and collaborator” rather than what he calls the opposite, “the devil’s advocate.” He was not suggesting one should simply…
To edify, according to one definition in Webster’s, is “to build.” When you edify a person, you literally build them up in the minds of other people and, perhaps most importantly, in their own mind, as well. Edify a person, to others and to themselves, even for the things you wish they would do. They’ll…
