In Hancock County, Maine a web cam was installed above a bald eagle’s nest. The photos are amazing. Any day now a baby eagle or two should hatch.
Read the blog that accompanies the Eagle Web Cam updates to learn more about eagle behavior.
Why am I writing about this? Besides the very […]
Have you ever done something and immediately wished you hadn’t? That’s how I felt this morning when I was leaving a voice message for a possible client.
I was getting myself psyched up for this call. You see I dread making phone calls. It’s the hardest thing that I do. Tell me to talk in […]
TGIF! Thank God It’s Friday!
You may be thinking, “Yeah! It’s the weekend!” I don’t have to go to work tomorrow.
Yes, that’s a good thing. But let me ask you… are you taking advantage of your time off to work on your goals? What is it you want to accomplish this year?

I’ve become caught in my own perfectionist trap again. Ouch! I hate it when that happens. I hate it even more when I have to admit it to the world.
Here’s the situation… in January a friend offered to connect me with the gentleman who coordinate their in-house Lunch-n-Learn programs where she works. I promised to […]
I’ve started using a new time and contact management program called Time & Chaos. Just the title makes me smile. I need more time and life feels very chaotic right now.

She asked me why I had decided to change my focus back to public speaking after a short stint as a coach. The […]
I love my cat! Fluffy is a big old, 20-pound Maine Coon cat. I tell people he acts more like a dog than a cat.
For instance, if Fluffy wants to go outside, he waits by the door until someone notices. Good kitty.
But then, once you open the door, he just sits there! He doesn’t move!
“In […]
I noticed my first daffodils popping from the earth a few weeks ago. I know it was still February and I was thinking, “Oh no! It’s too early!” This weird, but wonderfully warm Maine winter has confused more than the flowers. I read in Sunday’s paper that the maple trees don’t know whether to run […]
It’s happened twice in two days… someone at work has stated, “I’m bored.” They didn’t even have any enthusiasm as they said it. It was just a hum-drum heart felt, deeply depressing grumbling of discontent.
When I asked why they were bored, they both responded: “There’s nothing to do.”
Immediately I smiled. You see when my children […]
