Come to work as our favorite characters
Come to work as our favorite characters We each have that inner voice that calls to us, telling us how the state of our affairs is progressing. Sometimes that voice echoes of wisdom and sound planning. Other times we are gambling with just working the pencil sharpener. Each of us tends to be drawn to certain animated characters more than others in life. Occasionally those character traits leak out, and others are able to gain a glimpse into our secret worlds. We all have character traits that seem odd and puzzling to others, yet to ourselves, they seem quite normal. I have a friend whose character traits of Darth Vader…
Bring on the Fall – Moab Utah Style!
Fall is always a favorite time of year for me. I like the mildly cool mornings and warm afternoons. Sunshine is generally in abundance in this part of Utah, Moab. Autumn leaves occur normally on the high La Sal mountains in September, but in town they don't start to turn in all their glory until the end of October. The Red Rock and Sand Stone cliffs that border Moab Utah offer lots of extra months of fun and activities for the like-minded recreationist. Hiking, jeeping, biking - rock climbing - it's in full swing this time of year. The temps don't dip down until mid to late December. Living the dream?…

Phone etiquette 2.0. Meh!
When in doubt of who is calling, hang up! The days of answering your phone and believing that the person on the other end of the line is actually someone of importance to you, are gone. That isn’t to say that we don’t still get calls from loved ones, friends, and business associates. It’s just that we have those types of people already listed in our phone’s directory, along with a cool photo of them and some cute little emojis we share. I’m talking about spam, political ads, and of course the “you are delinquent – send me money to a foreign account”, type calls. Plus there are those who…
When The Past Becomes The Guide
When The Past Becomes The Guide People tend to rely on the past as a means to prepare for the future. While it is true we need to learn from our mistakes, are we allowing the past to control our future? Picking a time in my past that was riddled with mistakes and completely altered my life course, I ponder on how things could have gone differently. We tend to focus only on the negative and often times allow that negativity to guide our present and future decisions. Unfortunately, this way of thinking doesn’t help us resolve the conflicts or problems that haunt our memories. If we use the past…
