There is some aspect of competition that is good–it keeps us on our toes, it makes us strive to be better, and it keeps us honest insofar as it requires us to compare ourselves to others and not live in splendid isolation. And yet competition as we live it in our American lives goes to [...]

A former neighbor this morning wrote to reassure me that I can handle the upcoming transition to Houston–and she said that there are always bumps in a move, but they won’t be felt so much if we take them in low gear! I love that thought. It strikes me that there are things we know [...]

This is what I know for sure: houses can be bought and sold. Homes we carry in our heart! The process of selling my own house started in earnest with cleaning out a dozen years of clutter and what now seems to me over 30 years of personal history. The piles of things to shed [...]

Thanks to a friend who is also a coach, I realized yesterday that the sadness about preparing the house for sale was not about detaching from the walls (after all, I have done that before!). What the sadness was telling me is that I was in transition–and declaring the end of an era. My friend [...]
On leaving and moving and emotions

Transition is the movement from one stage to another–transitions can take all shapes and involve change that we either chose or that somehow fell upon us (think pink slip, death, illness…something transformative that we may not have chosen). Transitions are on my mind right now as I shift from one city to another. I have [...]

I was recently in communication with a great real estate agent in Austin, Jill Crecelius. She and I have in common a love of books and a thirst for learning. We also share a passion for serving people with first class service and giving a 100% commitment. As I was suggesting yet another learning source, she reminded that [...]

So, if it is true that the only people who like change are cashiers, how do we deal with change whether we have chosen it or it has been thrust upon us? I think it might be wise to create a personal strategy to deal with change. Most of the time, I look at life [...]
Change is…

Change is hard. It hits us like a ton of bricks when we least expect it, even when the change comes about as a result of our choices. All of a sudden, in the middle of contemplating change that we have chartered, we feel the significance of what we are about to undertake. The enormity of it hits [...]

This week our theme has been friends. If you want to explore something interesting, this week I suggest you buy Vital Friends: The People You Can’t Afford to Live Without, a book by Tom Rath.
