notes on mastering the art of transcendence and refinement with Coached By Kate
I remember the day - vividly - when each of our kids were born, and I don't think I'm a unique parent in that way. No matter who you are or where you come from, that is a life-altering moment that is easily recalled from memory. Kate and I remember watching them sleep and dreaming/wondering [...]
I'm sitting outside on our front walkway as the kids swing away in their hammocks. The sun is high, warm, inviting, and the wind is whistling through the trees. Sure, there is a yellow dusting of pollen everywhere and I might have to take a Claritin, but it's not going to rob me of the [...]
I was meeting one of my good buddies early one morning this week at a coffee shop to catch up on life and sharpen iron before the days activities began. The alarm woke me up a little before 6AM and as I rolled out of bed I heard the rain hitting the roof. When rain [...]

Tennis is a fascinating sport. I seldom watch it at home but ironically it is the one thing I leave on the hotel TV when traveling. I love watching all the court staff, ball boys/girls, and referees that surround the 2 marquee players in any given match. There is so much going on before and [...]
I read a great article the other day from the Atlanta Business Chronicle called "7 Habits of Amazing Successful Sales People (Terry Brock, Contributing Writer)"and one of the habits seemed to jump off the page at me: Hustle when others hunker down. When uncertainty or tough times come about (and they always do) the winners and leaders take [...]
Lately, my wife and I have been talking about the various seasons of life people find themselves in and specifically the season we are in - young kids, school, new home, work, small group, and a busy schedule with even more things to do and less time to do them! I think almost anyone you [...]
Love is in the air with Holiday's rapidly approaching! Everyone is more giving and more thoughtful. They are also more stressed and rushed and panicked to get everything right before the jolly man in the red suit shows up.
