Which Way Are You Going?

ByMichael

DOES IT MATTER?

One of the questions that I am often asked in general conversations is “where should I be investing my money now?”.

My answer is always the same.

“That would be hard for me to answer since I do not know what goals you are trying to reach with your money.”

The questioner then follows up with, “well it doesn’t matter, I just wanted to know what you thought was a good investment right now.”

Without having a plan, the odds are high that your future is much like a Financial Zombie!

The Ups and Downs of Getting Fit

ByMichael

Sunday morning at about 9:00AM Dallas time I will start my journey for the Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon by going down the hill at the Cuvaison Carneros Winery in Napa County to turn left and ascend up Butt-Burner Hill. It is ONLY 3/10’s of a mile but for me, it might be more like running the steps with Rocky. When I get to the top, I will see three things. Off to my left about 20+ miles will be the San Francisco Bay, and for the next 2 miles, the view is incredible. Check out my Instagram account and I will focus on getting a picture of the view and the other two things I will see.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

ByMichael

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a comedy written by William Shakespeare between 1590 and 1597. It portrays the events surrounding the marriage of Theseus, the Duke of Athens, to Hippolyta. These include the adventures of four young Athenian lovers and a group of six amateur actors (the mechanicals) who are controlled and manipulated by the fairies who inhabit the forest in which most of the play is set. The play is one of Shakespeare’s most popular works for the stage and is widely performed across the world.

What is our Midsummer Night’s Dream or is it a this a ongoing Nightmare?

Taken today that same play might be considered Europe or the United States.

Your Digital Detox

ByMichael

If drinking eight glasses of water a day is good for your body what is the equivalent of this for digitally detoxing your mind?

Thursday morning in Atlanta, Georgia, I am attending our quarterly business coaching session with Ray Sclafani, CEO and Founder of Clientwise. Of course, I use technology to get my day started. No need for the old fashion wake up call, I set my alarm on my Fitbit to wake me for a morning run before spending a day with a dozen of my peers.
