Weak and Powerless
1 Sep 2010On Wednesdays, I always seem to write just whatever pops into my head – or go off on a bit of a tangent. I’ve created a new category for these posts and I’m calling it “A Typical Wednesday.” Hope you enjoy them. Somewhere along the route of history, we sold ourselves out. We gave into [...]
The Dreamer
31 Aug 2010Directly under my name on my business card, I’m using three words to describe myself. They are: Marketer ~ Entrepreneur ~ Dreamer The first two are easy. It’s the third one that poses a problem for some. It’s the third one that makes people take a second glance. It’s that one that irks a few [...]

Let’s be realistic.
28 Jul 2010Over the past few months, I’ve been going off on a little bit of a tangent. (the blue highlighted words in this post are links to some of those past posts) This has led to me spewing off my own optimistic ideas of the life you could live. I believe you can do work that [...]
Smurf Cash

Here’s the story: After reading the passage, please take a moment to read my questions below. Throughout the Tour de France, a Colombian rider on the Kelme – Costa Blanca Team, Santiago Botero, [...]
You’re not even in the game.
19 May 2010“It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game.” ~ Grantland Rice Remember that quote? I hate it. It’s not about winning or losing, it’s how we play the game. Hmm…. The reason I don’t like the quote is that most of the time we’re not even in the game to begin [...]
In The Zone
In: Fun Stuff
