The Saturday Morning Posts®
All of my posts, with the latest post always on top.
For a list of all my posts please visit my archives page
Through my love of writing, I have published two books and have several others in development. The purpose of my books is to help my readers get to where they want to go by offering ideas that have greatly helped me in my life and business.
These posts are written for you. Some are about life and some are about business. Who knows, they may inspire you to tell your own stories about your life and family to your kids and grandkids. Or perhaps they will help you to build your business. Anyway, these are some of the things that inspire me, and I enjoy sharing them with you in the hope that you’ll also find them meaningful. I welcome any suggestions you may have for topics that interest you.

Regret Not!
Regret Not! "The retrospectoscope has 20/20 vision." Mike Bromberg, D.D.S. I don't know about you, but I used to spend a lot of my time regretting things I had done or hadn't done. Ok, I still do that...but not as much. That changed long ago when I was having lunch...
Diapers to Diplomas
