Congratulations Brandon and Jessica

Today my Brother-in-Law, Brandon, and his beautiful finacee, Jessica, are tying the knot.  I’m proud and honored to have a part in the wedding.  I wanted to congratulate you guys and wish you the best!

The Thong on Trial

I was watching the Today Show this morning during breakfast and watched a segment about the most recent “crazy” lawsuit that has been filed.  When I did a search on the internet this afternoon for more information I came across some hilarious headlines, but this one by The Smoking Gun was awesome:”Dinged by a G-String“.
Anyway, [...]

Ordinary Average Guy

A few weeks ago I wrote a post titled, Perseverence is Genius in Disguise, about Barry Sternlicht, Chairman and CEO of Starwood Capital Group.  In an interview with Donny Deutsch, Mr. Sternlicht talked about how he was always a good student but not a great student, or a good athlete but not a great athlete.  [...]

DIctionary.com defines “focus” as: “a central point, as of attraction, attention, or activity”.  I have a ten month old son who really seems like he is growing up right before my very eyes.  It seems like just last week, he was a little bitty thing that couldn’t sit up or crawl or anything and relied [...]

I was listening to a sermon on my iPod the other day and the question was asked, “why do people always wait until a major crisis before they act?”  I got to thinking about it and it really hit home with me on a couple of levels.  First, I may be out of a job [...]

If you are ready to get started making some money on your own, where you are your own boss, then you need to start doing something and not waiting on the perfect situation.  There is no perfect [...]

One of the things I help with at church is anything tech and especially the multimedia stuff. I definitely feel like we are on the cutting edge of the 19th century with regard to our level of technology use at Cross Roads, but it is something that we are continually striving to improve upon [...]

Man, I just read this article: Can You Really Afford To Bash The ‘Millenial Lawyer’? by Susan Cartier Liebel.  This is where I’m at!  Although I do not work for a large firm, I feel a huge entrepreneurial drive to do more and live the lifestyle that I want.  I don’t want to work 80 [...]

One of the books that I recently finished reading is “No More Mondays” by Dan Miller.  Dan is a life coach whose purpose is helping people find the work of their dreams.  This is something I have been struggling with for a long time.  I never really felt like I was studying something I was [...]
