Finding Passionate Purpose

In my book Pathfinding I write, “For many people, finding their purpose becomes a life-long search. Others seem to find it early on in their quest for selfhood… The path to our purpose is an inner path. Our purpose is not something we discover, it’s something we uncover. Finding our purpose answers the question, “Why am I here?” … “What path have I chosen?” and “Am I on the right path?”

Knowing When To Listen and When To Speak

We all hear and we all listen but there is a big difference between the two in quality and quantity. When we hear, we hear words. When we are not paying attention, we hear sound. If we look attentive, we can often get away with not listening, but listening gives us and the person we are talking to something far greater.

Spring Forward with Spring Cleaning

The saying goes that the car you drive tells a lot about you. I think that is also true of your home. You may not be the in the home of your dreams, but where you select to live and what you select to be in your home, certainly speaks to your choices and values.

The Creation of my “Pollination”

The term entrepreneur wasn’t something I was raised to think about. I was given the gift of singing as a child. I became a teacher and guidance counselor. I never dreamed that one day I would use my voice and counseling skills as an independent radio broadcaster. I do believe that my drive and passion and energy, thirst for learning about people and focus comes from my genes.

Thoughts Are Things

In my book Pathfinding I write, “Psychologists have estimated that the average person has over 62,000 thoughts each day. Most people’s thoughts are a hodgepodge of internal concerns about money, sex, work, rent, car payments, meals, TV programming, health care, grocery lists, family issues, child rearing, the economy and traffic.

Breath – Vitality of Life

We know that a breath is a vital sign of life and that its job is to supply energy to the bloodstream. Breathing is studied by singers, musicians, artists, yogis. The importance of the breath in our day-to-day lives is often underestimated. The oxygen that the breath brings to our lungs is our life force.

Birds of a Feather Flock Together

I watched CNN’s Larry King talk show host interview Joel Osteen, a world-renowned preacher with a congregation of nearly 45,000. One of things Mr. Osteen said is that we must choose our friends and associates wisely because who we spend time with, will strongly influence what we do: “Tell me who you are with and I’ll tell you who you are,” so to speak.

The Power of Trust

When it is all said and done, when you have done your work, done it well, and “tilled the soil” of your success, one thing remains: To trust that the “what” you have done will bear fruit. Trust is an inner knowing and a “focused surrender” that things will work out.

Silence is Golden

There is a saying that God made us with two ears and one mouth for a reason. Knowing when to talk and when to listen is a skill. We often talk because the silence and pauses make us nervous. Or we talk to fill the void. On the other hand, some of us are too silent and speak only when spoken to; perhaps playing it “safe.” Balancing the two is the goal.
