  • Your TED Talk

    Your TED Talk

    a quick idea about what I would talk about if I were to give a talk at TED.

  • Telling Your Story

    Telling Your Story

    There is something so liberating about telling your story.  We all have one.  You might not know your story, but you are living yours.  I guess before you can tell your story, you have to know it.  If you don’t know your story – I guess you’re not free.  Your…

  • Out Do Yourself

    Out Do Yourself

    What does that even mean?  Do you know how to out do yourself?  Here are my thoughts about it – at least tonight: 1.  It means that you have to have done something in order to out do that. 2.  Only you can know how to do this. 3.  Sometimes…

  • You Are What You Love

    You Are What You Love

    According to Erik Erikson anyway.  Erikson, Erik.  Identity: Youth and crisis. 1968 p. 138 if you want to look it up. So the saying “You are what you eat” would be correct if you love eating.  The better way to put it is the Eriksonian way – You are what you…

  • Facebook and You Being a Voyeur

    Facebook and You Being a Voyeur

    I heard someone say that Facebook is for the voyeur.  When you think of a voyeur, you probably thought about a peeping tom or something sexual.  I did, but then I looked up the definition of voyeur. The first definition all had to do with all of our initial thoughts.…

  • You Cannot Become More You

    It is not possible to become any more than you already are. That’s not to say that you can’t change your behavior or outlook. You can change the way that you look. You can change the way that you act, but you can’t become more you – as if there’s…

  • How to be Amazing

    How to be Amazing

    A few days ago, I wrote a post about how we can be Obsessed with Resumes.  The take away line was to just be amazing.  It seems obvious to me, but I know that people like the “how to” of things.  It’s the automatic response – how?  I was curious…

  • Commercials About You

    Commercials About You

    I hardly ever watch commercials.  My DVR makes that possible, but we happened to be watching Man Vs. Food – live tonight so we had to endure the commercials. Two commercials stood out because it happened one right after the other. The first was Holiday Inn where the tag line…

  • You Can’t Try To Be Who You Are

    ….that was a line from an article that I read today.  It was an article about a band, and they were criticizing the band for sounding too much like —- themselves.  The response was that you can’t try to be who you are.  You just are who you are.  You…

  • You are Your Parents

    I don’t always get the best response when I say that. Some of you – you are your parents. Others of you are nothing like your parents. It’s such a polarizing thing. Some of you are and some of you aren’t. Some of you are glad that you are and…

  • You Define Yourself by the Work You Do

    So does that mean when I complain about it that – that represents me?  Does that define me?  I read the line from a blog that I follow.  I won’t write on here which one, but I’ll tell you if you really want to know – @Lemness or e mail…
