Season of Joy

Chad Barr

Season of Joy. It’s really cold outside, and fueled by the wind, the effect is truly bone chilling. But that doesn’t stop this Clevelander from enjoying the displays and frantic energy that abounds all around downtown as Laurel and I trekked around bundled up, with camera, zoom lenses and tripod. Surrounded by the ice skaters twirling, falling or just hanging onto railings for dear life, Cleveland residents and tourists leisurely strolled through the lit trees, twinkling arches and stopped to ma

More BVFLS opportunities courtesy of Alexa

Rod Burkert

Post-Xmas greetings from Lajitas, TX. We’ve been here for six weeks so far … no snow, lots of sunshine, and most days in the mid-60s to low 70s. Some of you found last week’s Alexa-find-me-a-business-valuation-expert conversation a little disconcerting, i.e., more technology to master. But we are using the very same technology at home already. The difference is that now we are the product being searched for, not the customer doing the searching!

Improving Civility in the Workplace

Harvard Business

Krista Tippett, host of “On Being,” believes we are in the middle of a big shift in the workplace. For a long time, she says, we were taught to keep all of our personal opinions and problems out of the office — even if that wasn’t the reality. Now, as worker expectations change and people bring more of their authentic selves to work, Tippett says managers need to discover how to allow more honesty and emotions and humanity in the workplace, while still delivering in a hig

“Nobody dabbles at dentistry”

Seth Godin Blog

There are some jobs that are only done by accredited professionals. And then there are most jobs, jobs that some people do for fun, now and then, perhaps in front of the bathroom mirror. It’s difficult to find your footing when you’re a logo designer, a comedian or a project manager. Because these are gigs that many people think they can do, at least a little bit.

A commitment to possibility

Seth Godin Blog

Pessimists are right. Optimists are right. Expectations have magical powers. So many people to connect with, so many things to learn. Doors to open, helping hands to be offered. The magic of our time is that forward motion multiplies and ideas can be shared like never before. Of course it could all go sideways. The person who invented the ship also invented the shipwreck.

We are all poets now

Seth Godin Blog

Poets use words (and silence) to change things. They care about form and function and most of all, about making an impact on those that they connect with. Every word counts. Every breath as well. In a world filled with empty noise, the most important slots are reserved for the poets we seek to listen to, and the poet we seek to become.

Go find a ladder

Seth Godin Blog

While it might be fun (or appear expedient, or brave, or heroic) to try to scale a cliff with no tools, it turns out that ladders are a more effective way to level up. When it’s time to drive a nail, a hammer is a lot more useful than a rock. Even if you have to invest in obtaining one. Often, we spend most of our time throwing ourselves at the wall instead of investing the time to find a useful ladder instead.

In search of specific

Seth Godin Blog

So much pressure to be general, to be all inclusive, to aim for the middle. That’s what meetings push you to do. Advertising. Social. But what if you were specific instead? Precisely for you, not you. Precisely does this, not that. When you’re specific, you only find two kinds of people: people who are delighted, and the rest. Specific can be its own reward.
