“No-Fail” Friday: On to the next
I hope there’s been some celebrating underway for you this past week, regardless of your creed or culture. Even if you’re a member of the Holy Church of Nothing at All, you can at least find your way into a room full of someone else’s punch and cookies. Nothing wrong with that, as there seem

Cautiously optimistic
There’s been something in the air lately, and for some of us, it might seem a little foreign. Many things about this year have made it less than a favorite for everyone, but as 2017 comes to a close, there’s been this rare phenomenon happening…dare I say it? Are some of us actually hearing…good news?

Monday Moment: Open road
It’s always something, isn’t it? Whether it’s clicking through your to-do list or reaching for your loftiest goals, the path is never completely smooth. It’s anything from mildly annoying to completely deflating, depending on the size of the block and the state of your mind. That last part is exactly the thing, though. What if

Maybe not the most mindful first thought to have in the morning, but definitely an exciting one. And, an honest one! So maybe there’s something mindful about that. It was an interesting week,

Whatcha lookin’ at?
If you’ve been reading for a while, you know that we’ve taken on the topic of digital distraction many times over in the past (for ex., here, and also here). It’s a perfect platform for a conversation about mindfulness, since those shiny little devices, and the people who design their content, are so unbelievably good

Monday Moment: In focus
What a weekend, yeah? Hopefully a nice, long one for you, but also likely one with a little too much of a few too many things. Good on turkey for a while? Probably. Maybe also had your (temporary) fill of certain pies, beverages, and yes, family members…not to mention emails letting you in on “secret,

“No-Fail” Friday: Overserved?
Morning! For those of you in the U.S., welcome to the day after Thanksgiving, also known as “Black Friday” for the retail therapy aficionados out there, but really known to most of us as the day the leftovers give you life. For this early moment, though, it might just be best to start with a

Thankfully, yes
In business, striving for your next step is how you stay alive. If you’re content where you are, you had better be really content because before long, you will find yourself alone there, as your colleagues or classmates (or competition) keep pushing ahead, deciding how to take everything they are working on to the “next
