These are the things that cause you to stop short, not start, or just never actually feel fulfilled. Consider some of these things: Money Friends Family Thoughts Fears Focus Let’s discuss stumbling blocks and what they do to cause you to be unfulfilled. Sphere: Related Content… » Read More

We are strange, and that’s why the ladies love us! Seriously though, the reason that I grow my hair and beard out when I want to push myself towards something is that it is a really good motivator.  I can tie a string to my finger, but those fall off and get lost.  I could write myself a note, but I lose my todo lists and I keep those in our Project Management software.  The main reason is that it is always there, it is right up front, “in my face” (haha). Recently I grew my beard out until we “launched” something at work. It was a fun way for myself and friends to continually be reminded that I haven’t… » Read More

It seems like about once a week I stop and think about what I am missing that is keeping me from doing that one thing that will change everything.   I have worked on great projects in the past that I know could be huge, that could be made into something amazing and I feel like I am blind to what to do past the initial product development stage. I worked on a great project that should have changed an entire industry.  I had high hopes of making a difference and making some money while I did it.  I just couldn’t quite get to the next step with the project. I ran into a wall.  Everyone who worked on the project… » Read More

Well, so in my efforts to plan this event to raise some money I had two things happen yesterday, one good and one possibly not good.  The possibly not good one first, its possible that the location I found for the party may not be able to have us.  They have promised me a definite answer today by 3pm. The good news is that I talked with Eric at The LoHi Steakbar, who very kindly donated a $50 gift certificate to raffle off at the party. I am going tonight to another business to hopefully get some more items to give away or raffle. If you are interested in going to the party, even though I don’t know where it… » Read More
