I recently started a course to learn how to develop word-of-mouth referrals.  I know that mastering this skill will dramatically impact my journey.  But learning this skill is super uncomfortable - I hate asking for help.  The first few times, it came out "cringy" (as my kids would say) and I wanted to immediately stop.  

I once heard the definition of insanity was doing the same thing but expecting different results.  It takes me back to my undergraduate lab days—mixing the same ingredients in those tiny adorable beakers and how predictable the reactions were.  It's not magic, it's science!

Christmas to me means music in all shapes and sizes.  

Since it's Thanksgiving week, I decided to look into the science of a happy life.  Harvard has been conducting a study on happiness for 85 years, and the findings are startling.  The secret is not diet, it's not physical activity, it's not money.  

We've all head the phrase "Practice makes perfect", but the better version is "Perfect practice makes perfect."  

Small choices + consistency + time = significant results.

Sometimes when I set goals I go so huge - 10x versus 2x, right? - but on this one, I wanted to prove to myself that I could put in the work to not just hit the goal, but do it well and do it sustainably.
