The Most Powerful Thing You Can Do This Year…

Posted by on Jan 2, 2013 in Full Throttle Living, Life Plan | 0 comments Every e-newsletter, every blog post, every email I’ve gotten in the last week has been about getting yourself, your business, your weekly calendar ready for 2013. One question… why does it take a flip of the calendar, a turn of the page, a stroke of midnight to make us open our eyes to the possibilities before us every day?

3 Look-sees in December

Posted by on Dec 6, 2012 in Business Application, Full Throttle Living, Life Plan | 0 comments December is my month to shift down a few gears and find neutral.

Are You an Affluent Visitor or Penniless Local?

Posted by on Apr 22, 2012 in Full Throttle Living, Life Plan | 0 comments Would you like to be a professional mountain climber?  It would be awesome to have a job like that… your office would put the corporate “corner office” to shame.  Every office would have an outstanding view and board meetings would be held at 10,000 feet. It would certainly be fun to be a ski instructor, a dolphin trainer, a hula dancer, a brew master, a white water rafting guide…...

Posted by on Mar 26, 2012 in Full Throttle Living, Life Plan | 0 comments This last week, I was given the opportunity to speak to a group of high school sophomores on “Career Day”.  It was an exciting opportunity for me to have an impact on these young lives… inspire them to greatness… encourage them to follow their dreams… help them draw out their passions… and all I felt I did was bore them to death!
