Carla and I gave a webinar the other day about the 5 trends that are shaping the world of employment in 2011.  We had a nice crowd, we had ugly technical issues (can you say VOIP?), and provided important information to our attendees.  The fact that Rovia, our sponsor, and provider of a really cool [...]

That is what I always felt I competed against.  No, not the beautiful red-head on the left.  That’s my gorgeous first-cousin Lisa.  My heart is fluttering even now as I remember her dancing at my Bar Mitzvah when I was 13.  My Aunt Renee and Uncle Jack gave me some cash as their gift to [...]

Some days are really good, some days are really really good.  Some days are just amazing, even before 10:00 a.m. Today has been amazing. I’ve been working hard to increase my social media presence as it relates to my dream manager business and me and Carla’s new company, Vibrant Life.  I’ve been working with a [...]

Look before you leap. I’ve never really been good at that part of life.  I’m a leaper. But that is what makes life an adventure, never really being sure of where you are, what you are doing next, and what is in store for your future. As 2011 approaches, more changes are occurring in my [...]

My mom (God rest her soul) was a wonderful cook.  She hated the kitchen, she wasn’t real fond of recipes, made my brother and me empty the dishwasher, and in her last decade, primarily used the stove-top to heat up water for her tea and the microwave for making popcorn. But when Mom cooked, it [...]

An amazing week just ended, me and Joanie’s first Dreamtrip.  We spent a couple days in South Beach (the art-deco neighborhood that is part of Miami Beach) and then undertook our first cruise on the Carnival Cruise Line ship “Imagination”.  I met a lot of other Dream-trippers (what we call those of us who are [...]

Are you living your dreams?  What are you waiting for? Ten days before he died, my seventy-seven year old dad asked me those two questions, and in a blink of an eye, my life completely changed. Although I didn’t understand the importance of that last lunch we had together at his nursing home in Cincinnati [...]

Here I sit in my hotel room.  Beautiful, sunny, warm, and yes, breezy Scottsdale Arizona. My wife is on the balcony “reading”, however I’ll give her another ten minutes and I bet I hear her snoring. We’re here for the next three days at Camp NSA 2010.  NSA is the National Speakers Association, and I’m [...]

There is absolutely nothing about Pasta in this blog post, but I just loved the alliteration. Anyways… I continue to “share share share”.  It’s not always easy.  I don’t always meet with the nicest people.  I am often met with resistance.  I explain WorldVentures, talk about how I got involved in the biz, how it [...]

What an interesting couple of days for “The Google”… Yesterday, it was leaked that Google was giving their entire staff a minimum of a 10% raise in 2011 and $1000 bonus (after-tax).  Perhaps it was a precursor to the WSJ article today titled “Google Battles to Keep Talent” that appeared above the fold, front page [...]
