Have some Ambition Damn it!

I had a debate with a friend of a friend the other day.  We were talking about how hard it is now to find a job.  How the wages don't reflect living standards and the opportunity to get ahead is slowly dwindling. It's tight for sure and for those out of work, due to the …

The Human Condition

I'm a fuckin failure.  He said it to himself over and over.  Beating himself with his percieved faults and missed steps.  Hoping and clinging to a belief that maybe one day the universe would hear his cries and unload a flood of prosperity and success.  Wishing, hoping, dreaming that even one aspect of life, he'd …

Emotion vs Logic: the Struggle for Sanity.

The other day I watched the "Defiant Ones"  on Net Flix .  It's a docuseries about Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine.

Being a SINGLE DAD: The RECOGNITION of INFLUENCE

He once fit head to toe.  From my elbow to my fingertips. In fact they all did. I have 3 kids. They are awesome, spectacular and as close as they all are. They are very different. My girls, oldest and youngest, are very independent and motivated. My son, in the middle, is independent, but definitely needs a little more direction.When …

Self CONFINDENCE or EGO? Probably a little of Column A and a little of Column B

This one time I had my work review and was informed by my supervisor, that I maybe, might have a big ego. I’m not one to deny that I have an abundance of self confidence.   Really… How much of that is ego though?   After letting that digest for a moment or two.  I conceded …
