My new book To See It, Be It is a collection of lessons I’ve written over the years—25 little notes that mean a lot to me.
What’s after achievement? Are we condemned to aim ever higher! higher! higher! until our hearts quit?
I want the answer to be no.
When behaviors irritate, anger, or sadden me, I learn what I don’t value. This leads me to ask, “What are the alternative approaches I do value?”

I believe in positive thinking. It expands my gratitude and reminds me what I value. I also believe in negative thinking.
The rules! They govern our behavior, defining what may or may not be done in a given context. Rules can be explicit or implied.
I first shared this note two years ago. I’d like to revisit it today.
I watch great managers at Lessonly create video game energy on their teams wherever they can.
Five years ago, my doctor, James Pike, asked me what I wanted out of life.
