Yay, you’re back. I hope you enjoyed Part One in Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us by Daniel Pink. I’m glad I reread it this week. Some great ideas I missed the first time. We’re continuing with the book this week. Like last week, if you spend 10-15 minutes on it a day, you’ll more […]
Well it’s really started to heat up here in Arizona this weekly. Luckily, I had a quick trip to San Diego to speak at a conference out there. I hope you’re finding ways to stay cool during these warm days and still enjoying yourself. As always, here are links to all of my blog posts […]
I was sitting in the waiting room of the dentist’s office today. Across from me, a boy probably about 4 or 5 played with his action figures. He had one of the characters help someone. His mom quickly told him, “He can’t be a hero–he’s the bad guy.” I thought about saying something, and I’m […]
Three things caught my attention recently. 1) The Dallas Mavericks won the NBA Championship and owner Mark Cuban let original owner Donald Carter accept the Larry O’Brien NBA Championship Trophy. 2) Newt Gingrich’s entire campaign staff quit gaining much national attention. 3) I sat and watched the closing credits of X-Men: First Class. So you’re probably […]
Okay, so this week’s assignment won’t be as fancy as last week’s. I think it is perhaps the most boring assignment out of the whole Summer School process… …but it IS necessary. Think for a moment. In the past year, how many “lost my cell phone/got a new cell phone, text me your number” posts […]

Okay, here it is. This is the State assignment that will take up the most time. It’s why we had you start drinking more water and focusing on your sleep patterns last week. Ideally, you’ll continue doing it not only this week, not only during Summer School, but really for the rest of your life. You […]

So, this was an exciting week here. I launched my new Summer School program. If you haven’t checked it out yet, now is your chance to sign up. Definitely get involved with this. It’s going to be awesome. I’ll include the announcement video at the end of this post if you missed it. Posts by […]
So I’ll admit it. I’m a fan of the TV show, Build it Bigger. I don’t watch it all the time, but it’s definitely one that I have in my DVR for background TV–that’s TV that I have on while I do household tasks. Last night as I did my dishes and cleaned my kitchen, […]
