I’ll bet you know exactly what the term ‘off-Broadway’ means. No? It refers to the theatres one over from the main streets on which the Broadway extravaganzas are played. The program directors of the ‘off-Broadway’ sites have to work harder to bring in the foot traffic to put bums in the seats, yet the talent […]
This week, I thought I’d share the inside view of some of the things happening here in what will be the centre of the (Ontario, Canada) universe for all things Eclipse. This region, known as Niagara, my own backyard, has gone completely bonkers. You know I live twenty minutes away from the world’s eighth […]

The other day, I encountered the usual ‘What’s your time worth’ argument. You know the one. You don’t build wealth by penny-pinching. Because your time is more valuable than you think.

I explore sustainability, climate change, and business and personal transformation from a business person’s perspective, not an academic’s. For example: 🌍Climate change and sustainability aren’t just moral imperatives—they’re business realities. But how do we navigate […]
The other week, I was chastised for using the phrase … “I refuse to give up. We CAN’T give up hope.” Apparently, according to the protagonist, the word hope is far too passive for our world now, is not what is needed these days and should be replaced with ‘love and rage.’ It’s not about […]
I am writing this as I put the finishing touches on the 3Day plus 1 Reset exercise I told you about a few weeks back. And spending much time thinking about anxiety, angst and anger. I got angry last week at a TV producer interviewing me for a piece on his career resources production. (He […]
Let’s talk about one idea we have about personal success. Lately, I’ve been trying to work through the different scenarios that would play out if we arbitrarily chopped the value of all homes globally by 50% to make the market more accessible. Notice I said globally. Because, in theory, there would be no impact if […]
My tagline used to say, ‘Ideas and Thoughts to Bullet Proof Your Business Now.’ I changed it for 2024 to ‘Considering Ways to Manage Better.’ It was the easiest way to umbrella the three activities I am concentrating on this year. Only some people want to solidify and grow their businesses; not everyone cares about […]
December is turning into the whirlwind of activity season. Certainly not because of parties and social things. Instead, because many of my brother’s estate details are finally ending. (Notice I said many; I did not say all). One of the things I am doing is taking a portion of the estate proceeds and setting up […]
