New Year’s Day It Is

In spite of some fears, we have made it. It’s New Year’s Day. The beginning of a new, or the continuation of an old, way of life. This past week, between Christmas and New Year’s, is my time to reevaluate my values, my focus, and my way of living day-by-day.  Some parts I will continue, some parts I will discontinue.…

What Do You See?

This week I have had repeated conversations with a variety of folks, clients, family, and associates. Different specifics but the same message.
