Personal ephiphanies while in hurricane harbor
04June
So, I’ve been in Florida for the past 7 days and while out here I have made some personal observations. In the process I have decided to make some changes in my life and lifestyle. I have also made a few personal commitments (see list below) I feel as if this trip has allowed me a chance to think. A LOT! Beaches, dolphins, islands, blue skies, new people all seem to have jolted my mind...

Our Family Rituals
28May
“AGUIRRE!” we shout as we drive by the Aguirre Roden building on Central Expressway. Sometimes I am not paying attention when we drive past it and jump in my seat when they scream it from the back of the car. “AGUIRRE!” Family rituals. I don’t personally know Pedro or Peter Aguirre yet from the Aguirre Roden company (however one of them is a LinkedIn connection) but...

Growth. Time. Love.
26May
I’m sitting here listening to them breathe. I pause to focus and get emotional every time I allow myself to experience a burst of memories that take me through the last few years of life. When they were younger, that I could carry them in my forearms facing down. I imagine this is a bit tough to imagine, but trust me, it’s a precious image. They have always been small for their ages...

27March
It's just not possible. We influence those around us. Sometimes with our word. Sometimes not. Sometimes we persuade. Sometimes we anger. Yet we influence.

Memories- That’s All We Have

Christmas, Thanksgiving, & Minimalism
21November
I am a marketer and a minimalist. In fact I became a minimalist to become a marketer. I had to adopt a minimalist philosophy if I could ever seriously consider becoming my own boss and starting my own company. If I had not removed all excess from my life, I would have continued working at my management job. And although I enjoyed working with the people at my job, it took away valuable time with...

Energy is Truly is Magnetic
05October
“Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.” ∼ Albert Einstein I posted this on my Facebook wall today and didn’t realize how much it would play out in my mind today. I have known this to be true for quite some...
