I’m obsessed with the Chicago Cubs baseball team. This statement might seem odd since I’ve never seen them play and I don’t follow sports. Technically, it’s not the game that fascinates me, it’s the curse. In the 1934, tavern owner Billy Sianis adopted a baby goat (Murphy) that fell off a truck in front of [...]

Ci-cay-das, Ci-cah-das
Soon the East Coast is going to be overrun with billions of 17-year cicadas. It’s a colossal event of biblical proportions. I know, because the western suburbs of Chicago went through the same thing 5 years ago. It’s one of the most fascinating experiences of my life. Normally, I’m squeamish about being outnumbered by creatures [...]

Fractured Cliché #39
The other day my exercise class was full of new people. Someone was standing where Nancy normally stands, so she was forced to move into a new spot in front of me. Shelly, our instructor, was telling stories. (Somehow she’s able to lead the class, breathe and talk all at the same time. It’s amazing!) One [...]
Being Proactive
Being Proactive Giving personnel access to decision-making tools, contextual data and strategic planning resources also builds the company culture that supports being proactive-rather than reactive. Personnel learn to make decisions independently, thoroughly researching cause-and-effect data and making fact-based decisions. Employees learn that slow response is no longer acceptable. Teams understand that [...]

To Hell And Back
Saying that scientists have made a discovery always lends a certain amount of credibility, no matter how ridiculous the revelation. It’s been reported that Italian scientists discovered the gate to Hell – literally – in Turkey (the country not the bird). Known as Pluto’s Gate, this is the genuine portal to the underworld. Pluto’s Gate (Source: hurriyetdailynews.com) [...]
“What Do You Say When You Talk to Yourself?”
“What Do You Say When You Talk to Yourself ?” All day long we talk to ourselves. Are you even aware of that and what you say to yourself? Most of us aren’t. Yet at least several hundreds times a day we say things, comment, compliment, criticize and sometimes put ourselves down. The conversations we [...]
Business Instinked
Have you ever faced a situation in which any decision you made could be a bad one? I experienced this recently with a new consulting assignment. I was excited to get the work. It was a new client and my performance could send more work my way. I’d prepared for the first meeting, was confident [...]
Fractured Cliché #39
Fractured Cliché: Ignoring the white elephant in the room Correct Cliché: Ignoring the 800 pound gorilla in the room To me there’s little material difference between these clichés. Imagine a white elephant or an 800-pound gorilla. Either would be hard to ignore. Something else that would be hard to ignore is two football fields, adjacent to [...]
Big Dang Theory
Did you know that swearing can reduce pain? I mean when you swear not when someone swears at you. Researchers have learned that swearing, unlike other types of speech, uses brain circuitry that’s linked to emotion. Normal language comes from the outer layers of the brain’s left hemisphere whereas expletives are buried deep inside the right half. [...]
Ruining your career with social media
There’s no question that social media is a powerful communication tool. LinkedIn has 200 million users, Facebook more than a billion, and Twitter over 500 million. Although LinkedIn dominates job search and recruiting, other sites are also being utilized. Forbes reported that over 50% of recruiters use Facebook and nearly 46% use Twitter (based on a survey by Bullhorn). Facebook is expected to capture [...]
Laughter And Ibuprofen Are The Best Medicines
The other day I woke up feeling down. It was cold and overcast outside – no sun to brighten the spirits. Normally I’m upbeat so I decided that something would happen to make things better. Engaging in my normal morning routine, I realized we were about to miss the garbage pickup. Wearing only capri exercise [...]
