Reflections On The Way Life Is

Making a fishing line from a piece of hair, twisting it both sunwise and moonwise. “This is the way life is. We weave together sunrise and moonrise, man and woman, summer and winter, and in that weaving there is life.” - a Mohawk observation/quote.

Being Successful in Today's Economic Situation

It’s clear that even with the economic situation business is still happening, but the rules are changing. I am hearing good things from businesses and clients that are practicing the following: being positive in their thinking and beliefs, thinking long term, creating alliances, being cooperative rather than competitive, being focused and disciplined, making sure they are providing value, embracing integrity, developing and managing uncertainly, and seeking to become a trusted advisory to their clients.

Where to begin? During this "season of others," as it has been called, who have you helped in the past 24 hours?

Happy Holidays and New Year.

All the best,

Rick
