Stop Reading.Take Action.
This blog is about taking action…action with purpose…my purpose is to keep you connected, collaborative, and creatively productive. What action are you taking?
Are you stuck in research mode? Decision making mode? Research and reading will help you and I to gather data, but the bottom line is nothing happens until we get into action.
year of action and creativity-so far
At the start of the year I committed to a theme for 2011 and asked you to join me in making your new year resolution an evolution (of self.) I believe we become what we practice, and daily practice is a great way to become. I declared creativity as my theme for 2011. I am developing things for my business that were not in existence before; I am developing my create ability with daily focus and developing daily habits that will put this new ability into action!
I have to admit that it is difficult to keep the focus for an entire year. I ran into a few rough spots with the epic tornado breakout in our area, and less epic distractions like a loss of interest. Habits are difficult to change and create (nothing new there!) I wanted to share with you a few tricks I’m using to keep focused and regain my focus after a distraction. I hope you’ll share your insights as well – we learn from each other!
let out a roar at work
This post is a little different. I’m taking my own advise and doing one thing different today….I hope you enjoy this departure.

There once was a dragon that was lost at birth by its parents and raised among farm animals. It grew up to eat grass and walk the fields like other tame beasts.
One day an older dragon flew over the fields, breathing fire and scattering all the animals in the barnyard. The young dragon on the ground was fascinated and frozen in its tracks. The older dragon, spying its young cousin, swooped down, grabbed the younger one in its huge jaws, and flew far up into the sky.
