How are you, really? What noises in your head are telling you you’re ‘too this’ or ‘not enough of that’? Is it time to finally take a break from all that chatter and just be? Yes, yes it is. We talk about being too busy, read books on high performance and how to achieve more, […]
Suicide, Pro Sports and Me
Until this past weekend I’d counted 393. Now there are 394. Since the early 1950’s these are professional athletes who have committed suicide. Lives gone, families and communities disrupted, tragedy at a depth few of us know or understand. But in looking at that number, it seems all wrong to me, far too many on […]

What If?
What If for a moment we set reason aside? What If for a brief second our wildest dreams were given permission to surface?

That annoying, repetitive, unstoppable, groan-inducing question that has the ability to be […]
