Reflection, introspection, perspective, and nostalgia are all cultivated in a person over time. As I approach my 58th year in March and as we embark on a New Year, I find myself immersed in thoughts of all the above. This past Tuesday, my wife and I went to a late afternoon movie. It wasn’t a [...]
As we enter our first full week of 2025 and shake off the dust of the holiday season, it is time to get to work. And by work, I mean defining the distinctions that will shape how we want 2025 to unfold for each of us. In my previous blog, I discussed some significant work-related [...]
Approximately one hour and forty minutes into the movie Titanic, the barrelman (the navigator stationed in the crow's nest) shouted, "Iceberg, right ahead." The fateful collision that followed resulted in the loss of thousands of lives, forever marking it as a tragic miscalculation and providing for one of the most iconic scenes in movie history. [...]
As an employee, one might think, "So what, who cares, what's in it for me?" I would partially agree with that sentiment. However, being part of a successful organization and participating in a growth mindset as part of its corporate culture offers an opportunity that goes beyond just showing up and getting a paycheck.

Can't. A word that has launched ships, landed men on the moon, and broken world records in athletics. At my Chiropractic College, a plaque on the wall stated: "Whether you think you can or think you can’t, you're right." Can't is undeniably the spark that fuels many great ideas. However, "can" must always be present [...]
The election has concluded, and with that, we can finally shift our focus back to what truly matters: the holiday season and planning for the year ahead. While the election’s outcome brings new leadership, most changes from a new administration will likely have a limited direct impact on our daily lives. Factors like the cost [...]
Each day, we get up, go through our routines, and head out the door to work. But why? Beyond the obvious need to pay bills, what drives us to do the job we do? The exchange of time for money is often the primary motivator. For some, this exchange is acceptable—they find meaning and enjoyment [...]
On Sunday mornings, my routine usually involves a trip for coffee followed by a quiet moment at the beach to watch the sunrise. Most often, I do this alone, though sometimes my wife joins me.
