Learning from our mistakes

If you step in it often enough sooner or later you'll learn what it looks like.
 

Freeing yourself from informational bondage

Life is very fast, and somewhere between working 60+ hours-a -week, holding down the home-front, driving through, picking up and dropping off, we gave up our willingness to think and let the news media do it for us. Remember these things: Information is not news. The key to any story is “why,” and everything you see in the news, you are meant to see. Recognizing these is taking a step towards freedom of thought.
- from a course lecture at Spring Arbor University
 

Indecency vs. Freedom of Speech in the mass media

This issue is not so much about freedom of speech as it is about a lost sense of stewardship in mass media. Once the on-air threshold is crossed, that “freedom” becomes a “responsibility.”
- from a lecture at College Misericordia

Balanced Being

Balance is comprised of both darkness and light, Yin, and Yang, positive, and negative. If you lead a “Balanced life,” then you must anticipate and prepare for both.

The facts of life

Some days you’re the windshield. Some days you’re the bug.
- J. R. Ewing

Working for a living

If you don’t love what you’re doing, do something else. Life is too short to be spent in pursuits the only reward of which is money.
- thanks Dad!
 

Business

Business has only two functions: Marketing and innovation. These make money. Everything else is a cost center.
- Peter Drucker

The Bottom Line

We must each be the change we wish to see in the world.
- Gandhi
