The Ripple Effect: Back To The Thinking Tree
http://swotvision.blogspot.com/2012/07/back-to-thinking-tree.html
Tuesday, July 17, 2012. Back To The Thinking Tree. My ankle/heel fracture has gotten better and I've been released back into the wild! Which I think Ripple Dog is even more thrilled than I am to resume our morning and evening walks. Honestly it was driving me crazy not being able to get out there and walk, much less play tennis. Which by the way, I played my first official match over the weekend and despite being a bit "cautious" about how I played I won 7-6 (15-13), 6-2. Please read this previous post:.

Monday, July 02, 2012. My 8 Minute Ripple Experience. Last Thursday night was a real experience for me. I had hurt my ankle the previous weekend so I was on crutches and not very mobile. Because I wasn't able to do my typical walking around thing during The 8 Minute Ripple, I was actually able to participate as a Rippler. Boy let me tell you, it was an incredible experience. And honestly it helped me reconnect with why I created The 8 Minute Ripple in the first place so many years ago. PS If you're inter...

Wednesday, September 05, 2012. Asset or Liability Inventory. Do you ever take an inventory of your network?

http://swotvision.blogspot.com/2012/08/team-goals-applicable-for-life.html
Tuesday, August 28, 2012. Team Goals Applicable For Life. Last night was my U-10 boys first soccer practice. We've got a few new kids and of course the core boys I've had the pleasure of coaching (including my son Josh) for the past several seasons. I've been waiting all summer to get the new season under way so to say I was excited last night was an understatement. This year I decided to have set some simple team goals which I hope to reiterate every time we take "the pitch". Do My (our) best. I think m...

The Ripple Effect: Is That Smell Me?
http://swotvision.blogspot.com/2012/08/is-that-smell-me.html
Tuesday, August 07, 2012. Is That Smell Me? In fact it probably is. Summertime networking can be quite treacherous. Especially when you attend that after work networking function. This year the entire country has been gripped by unusually high temperatures this summer which means by the time we leave our offices, jump in our hot cars, find parking, walk the three blocks to where the networking event is being held and enter the event well, we are, wait for it. Thank you, I'll be here all week). Take a fre...

The Ripple Effect: Belief
http://swotvision.blogspot.com/2012/09/belief.html
Tuesday, September 11, 2012. He is dead in this world who has no belief in another.". Johan Wolfgang von Goethe. In late 2005 my good friend Kelsey August. Asked me what I was going to do to promote my book. It was a great question, one that I had no idea how to answer. Well now you've got to get out there and speak,"she said with her trademark smile. Those words still create goose bumps when I think about them. Yes, fear immediately took hold. Umm no, I'm a writer, not a speaker," I sheepishly protested.
