It's 2:10 pm and I'm out for a walk in the woods.  I haven't had lunch yet.  In fact, I haven't eaten since yesterday. Then, just when I thought I would go hungry again, I spy a bush with some delicious-looking berries hanging off the branches.  They are red, soft,...

Hanging in the Balance

by | September 24, 2024 | Personal Mastery | 0 Comments

Work/Life balance is a fallacy.  And yet, we try to prove otherwise on a regular basis. Once upon a time, there was work/life separation.  You came to work, did your job, and went home. Technology changed all that.  With technology, there was never a need to unplug. ...

The Invisible Man

In 2014, when I turned 50, I was given a superpower. I didn’t realize what it was at the time, but soon it became very clear. Suddenly, it seemed, I became invisible.  Truly.  Where before when I would walk through crowds, people would make eye contact.  When I...

Learning to Let Go

It’s 2:00pm on a sweltering afternoon in Columbus, Ohio and I feel nothing.  And that bothers me. I’m winding down the process of getting our son checked in as a freshman at The Ohio State University.  It’s an absolute circus.  There are multiple lines to stand in,...

When I got the call in 1994, long distance from my mom while stationed on the island of Guam, I was crushed.  Just a week before, my grandma had called me out of the blue for no reason.  Just to say hello.  And now my mom told me she was gone. Jean Stanczyk, who I...

21 Jan 1983 is a date I’ll always remember.  21 Jan was the day I went to the Military Enlistment Processing Station (MEPS) in Los Angeles to take a physical, fill out a mountain of paperwork, and finally swear into the Delayed Entry Program (DEP) of the United States...
