Do you know where your next best idea will come from?

Walking past the office supplies to pick up medicine, i spotted the white board calendar and then found and added the post-it notes to create the photo you see.

Spontaneously had an idea from walking down a Drug Store isle.

Crazy, huh?

Figuring out better ways to followup on sales leads – that’s what’s been occupying a lot of space in my brain this Summer.

Irrational or rational attachment?

Farm country

corn maze
Organizing our stuff can feel overwhelming, just like being stuck in a corn maze.

 

Irrational or rational attachment to all our stuff?

If we had less than two years to live, what wouldn’t really matter?

And what, if anything, would?

Are you fascinated by the way people…

CEO of You, Inc
There are a lot of moving parts to our lives. After graduation, the number of circles continues to multiply. We must keep it from getting overwhelming.

 

Are you fascinated by the way people can easily see the faults of others yet appear to be blind to their own?
