When I Grow Up, I Want to Be a Ninja Turtle

March 30, 2021January 29, 20233 Comments

Let me tell you a funny story.  When I was a kid, I was obsessed with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. 🐢 👊 I mean OBSESSED.  I watched every cartoon, read every comic, and when the movies came out, the VHS tapes basically lived in our VCR. The first one is by far the best … Continue reading When I Grow Up, I Want to Be a Ninja Turtle

Consistency is Key: the importance of showing up

Consistency is Key: the Importance of Showing Up

March 23, 2021November 26, 20211 Comment

This week has been a bit of a clusterfuck for me, so I’m not really feeling all that creative or inspired to write.  Which is why I’m going to keep today’s post short and sweet.  That said, despite not being in the mood, I still showed up. I sat down at my desk, opened a … Continue reading Consistency is Key: the Importance of Showing Up

How Murphy’s Law Relates to Personal Growth

March 17, 2021December 28, 20221 Comment

Have you been kicked in the ass by Murphy’s Law?  That’s a dumb question. Of course you have – the law wouldn’t exist otherwise. Merriam-Webster defines it as, “an observation: anything that can go wrong will go wrong.”  Want to go for an afternoon hike? I hope you enjoy an unexpected thunderstorm.  Need to shower … Continue reading How Murphy’s Law Relates to Personal Growth

Don't let anger cloud your judgement. Be fascinated by the growth process, not frustrated.

Embrace the Growth Process: Be Fascinated, Not Frustrated

March 15, 2021November 26, 20212 Comments

After lockdown part ‘duh’ ended, I was sooo excited to get back on the squash court.  I love the sport, and since I’m no longer lifting canoes and kayaks on a daily basis, playing squash has become my preferred form of exercise.  It's super fun, too! Wearing a mask on court is less than ideal, … Continue reading Embrace the Growth Process: Be Fascinated, Not Frustrated

Don't wait for your turn to speak. Practice active listening instead.

Sometimes, I Just Need to STFU and Listen

March 10, 2021November 26, 20211 Comment

Ask my partner, and she’ll tell you I’m a selective listener. If I could argue, I would...but she’s not entirely wrong.  It’s not that I don’t listen; I’m just easily distracted – if the hockey game is on, I’m scrolling social media, or I’m reading a blog post, there’s a good chance my focus is … Continue reading Sometimes, I Just Need to STFU and Listen

Where Are Your Priorities At?

March 2, 2021November 26, 2021Leave a comment

It’s been nothing but business for me lately.  If I’m not working, I’m writing. If I’m not writing, I’m researching. And if I’m not researching, well…  I’m probably sleeping.  When I’m sitting idle, I feel like I’m wasting time. There’s always something I could be doing, like: creating a landing page and an offer to … Continue reading Where Are Your Priorities At?
