Share & Tell: Finder’s share…

Many of us have heard the old phrase “Finder’s keepers.” Well today, I am proposing a new version, which is “Finder’s share.” In our society, which is filled with competition, one-upping, and ego-driven behaviour, I invite you to consider that TRUE authentic power and confidence comes from sharing who you are, what you have, and […]

The Ultimate Reward

People, especially in North America, are often striving for something-status, love, money, possessions,”more,” etc. With the act of striving comes the art of action and the need for constant action to move one (or many) step(s) forward.
