Remember when I said that thing about allowing life and business to unfold, and come to you? Well, that was last week. Today we’re rolling up our sleeves! You didn’t get the memo? In all seriousness, everything I said is all still true — I meant every word. And for anyone that may not know

Well, we made it! Here we are, 2021. Mathematically, it makes sense, and yet it’s still a little strange to say. So, is everything all different all of a sudden? No? Me neither. A lot of the things on January 1st were likely quite similar to those one day earlier. But we can create opportunities

I’m not quite sure how it happened, but we are only two weeks away from 2021. And while we will likely still be navigating the health crisis, and the socio-economic and political impact of the year for some time, I find it remarkable that the calendar year 2020 is on the cusp of ending. And

Three days from now, we get to celebrate the greatest holiday of the year. At least that’s what my kids would say — they’d tell you without hesitation that Halloween is even more important than their birthdays. And though this year it will likely look and feel a bit differently, it will certainly bring it’s

We’re here to network. Because we’re here to create business. And both business and networking are all about relationship. So today let’s take a look at something in the bedrock of relationship building. Humility. But we better define this first. My sense is that humility can sometimes get confused with other sentiments.

In 1990 — which amazingly, was somehow thirty years ago — Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin, along with an all star ensemble, starred in The Hunt For Red October — a fantastic action movie set on submarines during the Cold War between Russia and the US in the mid 1980’s. At one dramatic point in
