Trees. Whales. Rivers. Sky. Us.
Imagine being an old-fashioned miner deep in the earth when the electricity that powers air and light down to you shuts off. Dank air soon fills your lungs. Your head smacks a wall. You knock about in darkness, suck in black dust and scramble your way back up, up, up. You feel the rush of […]
A question I sometimes ask my kids is, "Who benefits from what you just did?" Sometimes, I ask the same thing of myself, following something less than ideal that I just did. As a mentor to small business owners and an author of books about community good, I encourage entrepreneurs and gatekeepers to ask themselves […]
