“Just because you are a character doesn’t mean you have character.”

- Winston Wolfe, Pulp Fiction (1994)

Recently, I had an opportunity to play a part in giving something back to the kids of our local community. This involved wearing a character suit of an oversized boy complete with permanent smile. A sweaty adventure as I attempted…

Princess Sadie Loren

1 Year ago today my beautiful baby girl Sadie Loren Reyes came into this world.  That day completely changed my life FOREVER.  I wrote about “The Most Important Day Of My Life

The day after she was born I did a Live Video Broadcast (go to 26:00 in the video below) for my friends and family and what happened next was pretty crazy.  You gotta understand that before this I had barely just started my blog and was trying to “make…

Ever had one of those days when you notice that the only thing stopping you is you?!

One of the biggest assets for entrepreneurs and business leaders is the ability to silence self doubt and globalising, test assumptions & the like

The biggest win is often between the ears.

As a dominant visually wired guy, I have found my “portfolio of evidence” to be…

Previously we took a look at the DISC assessment

This gave us a framework to help us understand how ourselves and others are “wired”, and also to assist us in improving personal & work relationships.

After all, what is the cost for not improving working and personal relationships?

Shark Attacks Predicted To Decline With The Economic Crisis

The newscaster said shark attacks are directly related to the economy, because in order to have a shark attack two conditions apply:

  1. People Have To Be In The Water
  2. Sharks Have To Be Where People Are

Then he proceeded to explain that as the economy declines less people go to the beach (People In The Water), because they don’t have the money.  He followed that up with a stupid line that basically disproved his theory,…

It was often said to me that “most of us are like the rest of us” . Even in our similarities, there is a uniqueness that you & I bring to our communities in areas from business to recreation.

Says who? With the advent of the web, people are climbing on their virtual soapboxes and proclaiming everything from why a particular candidate sucks to why their football team is going to win it all!  Opinion, it appears, is the new drug of the 21st century.

In my previous article, I was explaining that in social media, people follow others for 3 main reasons: Information, Help and Entertainment.  But it was pointed out that…

I love sushi!

Take the sushi test

I would be a richer sushi lover if I had a dollar for every time someone told me they didn’t like sushi AND when asked if they had tried it, responded with a definite NO!

What do you and I miss out on as individuals and in our businesses?
