15 minutes left on the ride. You're 11 or 12 years old. You've just spent the better part of your Saturday outside with your friends; sports, the mall, the arcade, (for you 80s babies) going over to your friends houses, swimming in pools, and you were riding your bikes the whole time. You spent the whole day laughing. Or maybe it was playfully arguing why your team will win the Super Bowl this year, which teachers you want and don't want the following year and, most importantly, what you are ...

Didn’t you kind of picture yourself wearing a black gown and a queen’s crown like from the animated movies? Or maybe you’d rather see yourself as Charlize Theron in Snow White and the Huntsman? Either way, you look marvelous! Self reflection. Let’s get into it. Something we literally do and see everyday physically, however, most of us don’t take the time to self reflect beyond the mirror.

The first follower is what transforms a lone nut into a leader. - Derek Sivers I remember first seeing this TED talk from the incredible Derek Sivers in early 2010 during what I refer to as my first "Eat, Pray, Love" year. I had left my entertainment career behind to explore, de/re program, volunteer/serve, and work, for a year in Malawi and India. Grassroot Soccer, FHI360, Manav Sadhna. I grew a beard, hugged a ton of people, and said "I love you man", a lot. By far one of the greatest/most ...

Admittedly this post is going to hurt (foreshadowing) a little bit because I'm a lifelong NY Giants fan, however, I have to give credit where credit is due. I think a lot about the mindset of quarterbacks and often talk about this idea of having a 'short term memory'. Example; a quarterback throws and interception and we often hear this idea of forgetting about that last throw. Have a short term memory. Essentially, you have to leave that behind you, get back in the game and approach the next...
