Yesterday, I posted on Character and Consultation. At any crossroads, we can go back… or we can identify our Keepers, Leapers and Deepers. Some thoughts inspired by Linda Kavelin-Popov.

Letting Go and GOING
What matters most to you still? What no longer does? And what calls to you? Detachment and Initiative can help us soar. My thoughts, at this time, around taking inventory of our keepers, leapers and deepers.
Thoughts on Yielding
As my 63rd birthday (actually the 63rd anniversary of my one birth day, my day of birth lol) approaches, I am reflecting on what my own patient Curiosity is yielding. Yielding is the operative word and I share some thioughts…
Patient Curiosity
Curiosity is the power to explore. And Patience is Trust, Acceptance and Hope, in action. In combination, they are are foundational to “the hunt”. Here, I offer some thoughts around both… heading into 2023. Peace.
Time Passes?
It has been a while since my last post here on 3 Levels of Gratitude. Time passes. Indeed. Or does it? Time is time, and we pass through it maybe is more accurate. Here I offer on Time as Teacher, and/or the Classroom.
3 Levels of Gratitude
Gratitude is an internal experience. Thankfulness is the expression of Gratitude in words and deeds. Appreciation is the valuing of something or someone in how we engage it. It is an increase in value. Appreciation is that practice where we show our Gratitude and Thankfulness through our active engagement.
Foundational Truth
History is history. Anything else is less than truthful. This is true individually as well as collectively. If I am not truthful with myself, it impacts my capacity to make wise decisions and take on the right action… with myself or others. Truthfulness is foundational to all we do.
A Fit of Purpose
Best fit applies to business planning and life living. What I have been studying, consulting, acting and reflecting on over these last few weeks has centered around the thought and work of Linda Kavelin-Popov and the business coaching of Joe Calloway.
Find What Works
I write and deliver on exploring Character, Purpose and Unity… as forces for great change… at school, work, business and community. Part of that is about finding our “fit” over “fitting in”. Part of that is finding what works for us. Here, I explore some simple thoughts.
4 Commands Meant
Joe Calloway wrote a book I love called, “Be the Best at What Matters Most”. I am thinking that there are lessons for me this day. Being the best at what matters most to who we best serve is vital for a sustainable and sustaining success. It also starts from within, I am thinking.

Settlin’ Sucks
This week, I came back around to the notion that “settlin’ sucks”. That “ok” relationship, that often numbing work, that sterile “picket fence thing”. that “what are ya gonna do anyway” mentality… all the seduction of settlin’. And it sucks; it sucks the Soul out of us.
