Where have all the good guys gone?

Where have all the good, honest business men (and women) gone?

This is, well, a rant of sorts. It’s more of an extended question. Those who know me personally, may recognize this question as a topic I talk about often.

In my life as a consultant I have encountered individuals that would under bid to win contracts they could not fulfill. They would … Click to Continue

The act of preparing the field.

In previous posts I have  discussed the difference between being a farmer and a fisherman. The gist is that a farmer must have more resources and time than a fisherman.

RANT: There is no such thing as NOT lovable.

This rant was triggered by an episode of self loathing a friend went through. (better known as the “why doesn’t so-and-so love me” or “Will I ever find anyone who REALLY loves me?”)

Putting yourself “out there” is more than dressing up and playing let’s make a deal in the dating scene. You have to be willing to show love unconditionally. Heck most people can’t even CARE unconditionally. This doesn’t mean be blind to glaring faults and it CERTAINLY does NOT mean go have sex with bunches of people … Click to Continue
