Last week a friend asked me if I had taken the mRNA Covid-19 vaccine. My verbal response was “That is personal medical information” to which he replied “Oh so you haven’t taken it!” Before I explain why this conversation is so messed up, let me point out that I am not an “anti-vaxxer”, and [...]
I have worked in many countries on most continents, and one consistent desire I have found is for clarity. Most of us want to be clear about who we are and where we are going. I hope you have enjoyed the complimentary free eBook, Energizing Work. Now I have another gift for you. My coaching focuses [...]
“Does the moon exist only when I look at it?” Albert Einstein I live in a city, a large city, and everywhere I go I see concrete and walls, and particularly I see lots of signs and advertisements. When I drive my eyes are trained to flick from one sign to another, you have to, [...]
When I moved country, I spoke to my daughter, and told her how I had purchased a one way ticket back to where I am now living, in Canada. This was a move to the other side of the world, almost directly on the bottom (or top) of the planet from Australia, down-under, where I [...]

“Judge not and you will not be judged” Luke 6:37 I think that condemnation and judgement is always a roadblock to self growth. You see, I have a simplistic notion of love, and the supreme spirit is the instantiation of love. That is, love doesn’t die, and it doesn’t lie. Also what applies to one, [...]
