A revelation of sorts, a concept that might just shift the balance in favor of better coping and action and good. How to think about anxiety? Rather than a burden, a heavy yoke...instead, actually consider it a superpower. It’s like Spider-Man’s “Spidey Sense” ~ anxiety will give you acute, reliable indication of what’s most important …

Lyrics Post: “Can’t Stop The Feeling”
This song speaks for itself. Yes. Yes it does. I got this feeling inside my bones It goes electric, wavey when I turn it on All through my city, all through my home We're flying up, no ceiling, when we in our zone I got that sunshine in my pocket Got that good song in …
Short
Not the measure of height, but measure of materials, do we got enough to go? Do we got enough to build what we need? What the schedule says, demands, screams for. Life of a planner, manufacturing life, too much, not enough, go go go again. What’s short? Can we pull-in? Can’t make the schedule if …
Flat
Feeling that way, not ideal, for sure. Week just underway, plenty on the list, for the day, and days ahead. How do I feel? I feel flat. Forced energy, stomping the kick-start again and again, where’s the spark? Need it. Need it NOW. Know I can get there; not sure why I’m not there already. …

This perspective pulses through my veins every day. Super thankful. "Henry Ford famously said, “Whether you believe you can do a thing or …
Inside, Outside
Where we spend our time, inside, outside. Literally, and figuratively. In the world, in our heads. Who are we outside? Inside? The same, or different...? These questions churn through my noggin most days, challenge me, inspire me, forward, the stop! Then forward again. Striving to understand, live the truth, each day, nudge, speed, forward. Inside, …
Lyrics Post: “Zoo Station”, U2
“Zoo Station” — — this song broke the ice and set the tone for what was to come, in my humble opinion, when U2 released their album, “Achtung Baby”, following the world changing sounds from “Joshua Tree” and “Rattle & Hum”. The lyric, and sound, the vibe Zoo Station delivered, especially as the opening track, …
A Personal Reflection
A colleague and friend reflects on May 4th, 5th... “After the substantial grip that Star-Wars took on this particular date, I wanted to share with you some personal reflections on May 4th, as long as I can remember.
