November 28, 2014
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The Mukwonago Area School District won't get rid of their Indians nickname despite a court ruling supporting the state's order to drop it.
An area resident filed a complaint alleging the nickname was offensive in 2010. The state Department of Public Instruction ordered the district to drop it.
District parents challenged the order but the 2nd District Court of Appeals ruled last week they have no standing.
Superintendent Paul Strobel says the district has asked Republican lawmakers to strip DPI of its power to order schools drop nicknames. He also notes the parents plan to ask the state Supreme Court to take the case.
Rep. Steve Nass, a Whitewater Republican, is pondering bills that would repeal DPI"s authority or force a complainant to prove a nickname discriminates against a student.

Very keen to get the HTC Mozart update! I'm on Three but with an unlocked / unbranded handset which I bought myself.
Someone I know got update to his HTC Radar by using the Zune-turn-off-network trick. Might want to try that out...
Unbranded phones should get it because it isn't blocked by a carrier. Unless htc doesn't want to push it out for some reason.

But the drop has little to do with climate policies: the bulk of the decline is down to the collapse of the Soviet Union and the subsequent economic decline in eastern European countries in the 1990s. Without these nations, with so-called "economies in transition", greenhouse gas emissions have grown by almost 10% since 1990, the figures show.
The UN released the data ahead of a key meeting of environment ministers to discuss climate change in Poznan, Poland, next month.

The capital is Wellington; the largest city and leading port is Auckland. and Spain.
Nations that miss their Kyoto target in 2012 will have a penalty of an extra 33% added to whatever cut they agree under a new treaty, de Boer said.
Emissions reported under Kyoto do not include pollution from aviation and shipping, as these are classed as international activities not attributable to countries.

GAO: Definition of the Results to be Achieved in Terrorism-Related Information Sharing Is Needed to Guide Implementation and Assess Progress
Info-sharing czar touts US progress
Info-sharing architecture framework released
One idea for improving government information sharing could never see light of day.In a report in 2006, the Markle Foundation Task Force on National Security in the Information Age recommended an authorized use approach to speed information sharing.Traditionally, rules for sharing data are set by the agency that collected the information. Under the standard proposed by the task force, users would be granted access to data associated with a specific mission or threat, regardless of the source of that data.In testimony July 23 before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, Thomas McNamara, program manager of the federal Information-Sharing Environment, said he had determined that an authorized use approach is not feasible without an overhaul of existing federal laws, rules and regulations that deal with privacy and security.Jeffrey Smith, a partner at the Arnold & Porter law firm who served on the Markle task force, expressed disappointment over the decision. I believe that the adoption of an authorized use standard is still a desirable and necessary goal, Smith said in published remarks.However, the ruling pleased other expert observers.Authorized use is wildly impractical, said James Jay Carafano, a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation. Incremental change, rather than wholesale, is the right way to go. They have to build trust and confidence among stakeholders. I am a big fan of what they have done.John Cohen, a senior advisor to the ISE, said the office is continuing to evaluate authorized use to determine if and when it can be applied. Alice Lipowicz

Surge Classic set to tip off Friday
The Surge Classic men's basketball event is set for this weekend at the gymnasium on the Cincinnati State campus.
Cincinnati State, off to a 5-0 start to the 2014-15 season and ranked No. 4 in the National Junior College Athletic Association Division II national poll, will host Danville Area Community College, Monroe Community College and Moraine Valley Community College.
The Surge Classic gets started when Danville takes on Monroe at 5 p.m. on Friday. Cincinnati State plays the second game of the doubleheader against Moraine Valley at 7 p.m. On Saturday, Moraine Valley squares off against Danville at 1 p.m., while the Surge closes the event against Monroe at 3 p.m.
Cincinnati State, led by head coach Andre Tate, remained undefeated with a 99-71 victory over visiting Jackson Community College this past Friday night.
Cincinnati State sophomore point guard Andre Hollins-Johnson (pictured above), who is coming off a career-high eight assists and career-high-tying eight rebounds and four steals in his last outing, leads the Surge in minutes (28.2), points (15.2), rebounds (5.2), assists (4.2) and steals (1.8) per game.
Monroe Community College comes in ranked sixth in the national poll. Anthony Hemingway, a Monroe guard who is averaging 19 points per game this season, enters the event as the leading scorer on any of the four teams. Sophomore forward Brian Townsend leads Moraine Valley with 15.9 points and 8.7 rebounds per contest, while Adam Hendrix, a sophomore post player, tops Danville with 14.8 points and 8.6 rebounds a game.
Admission to all of the games is free when presenting a Surge card. Tickets for the public are $5 each.

Soccer coach hits recruiting trail after another solid season
Winners of its sixth straight Ohio Community College Athletic Conference championship, the Cincinnati State men's soccer team has completed another successful season.
The Surge, which remained in the top 20 of the National Junior College Athletic Association Division I rankings the entire 2014 season, eventually fell in the Region XII semifinals to No. 11 Ancilla to complete a 14-5-1 campaign.
In his 12th season as the Cincinnati State head coach, Head Coach Mike Combs led the Surge to their 12th straight postseason appearance.
Perhaps the most impressive outing of the season came in mid-October with a 4-2 victory over top-10-ranked Schoolcraft College. Leading the way was breakout player Mohamed Thiaw (pictured above). The freshman forward from Lexington, Ky., scored three goals and assisted on the fourth, all in the first half.
Thiaw, described by Combs as a "marquis forward," was named a top-five player in the region. He led the Surge with 16 goals and added five assists (37 points) in 19 games this season. Sophomore forward Tyler Gumbert contributed seven goals and two assists (16 points), while freshman forward Juwon Akintunde netted three goals and delivered five assists (11 points).
Cincinnati State, ranked 16th in the final NJCAA Division I national poll, did not advance past regional play for the first time in the three years.
Combs, who is two wins shy of 200 for his career, is hitting the recruiting trail, looking to solidify the Surge.
"We achieved our goal of winning the conference for the 10th time in 12 seasons," Combs said, "and look forward to bringing in top local talent in order to improve upon this season and qualify for nationals next year."

Michael J spends time instructing new staff about amenities at the resort and guest services.
The Count Down is ON!!
Here we are in November, or as many guys now call it MOvember. November started out with a big snowfall! Over 30cm of snow on weekend and it's still snowing! Another big storm is hitting the resort today, 8cm in the last 12hrs!
Job Fair!
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving
All of us here at Big White Ski Resort would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. The weather is changing, snow is falling and we are getting ready for a new season! The Cen Res staff got outside to enjoy a great Canadian pastime, a snowball fight! On Tuesday we had an autumn blizzard come through the resort and dump snow. Looks nice and snowy!
Responsibility Codes
Like most things in life skiing & snowboarding have rules to play by. There are three codes that help us play safely in the mountain environment. For alpine skiing and snowboarding there is the Alpine Responsibility Code, Nordic skiing has the Cross Country Code and Big White Ski Resort supports the Burton Smart Style Program in the Terrain Park. All of the codes exist to make the mountain environment a safe and fun place for all to enjoy.

Review this movie
May 21, 2014This is by far one of the best musicals ever made. Its so weird that you just cant stop watching, the music is great, the acting is great, and it is very interesting to see how crazy things can truly get. I say its a must watch. Watch it with friends, and family.
Mar 19, 2014The Rocky Horror Picture Show is zany, wild, unpredictable; that's what makes it a cult classic. Tim Curry gives a performance so abnormal and noticeable that you can't help but love his character, and the music and dance numbers are fresh and bursting with energy.
Jan 5, 2014This movie was the 70's to me and a lot of others, great rock and roll, outrageousness and great ballads. The cast is great, and the jokes still pack a punch, warning...this movie still will shock you!
Oct 26, 2013If you are able to understand the bizarre surroundings, which combines the comedy and other things like music, then you will love it. is a unique film in its kind... Very good movie.
Oct 25, 2013I really want to hate this movie, but I those songs just can not be erased and are catchy as hell.
The comedy is feels a bit forced most of the time, but Curry, as, usual, give a fantastic and unforgettable performance (yet leaving me feeling really confused at the same time.) However when the movie tries to have a serious moment, or just plain old exposition, it tends to drag a bit.
For what it is and when it came out, it is surprisingly original. But it is the songs that steal show and make this the cult classic that is. Like I said before, I despise this movie. Yet I also really enjoy it. The movie leaves me feeling wrong all over, yet entertained.… Expand
Oct 13, 2013The soundtrack is magnificent so many great songs that I cannot pick which is the best; I love Hot Patootie, Science Fiction Double Feature, Sword of Damocles, Eddie, Touch-a Touch-a Touch-a Touch Me, Sweet Transvestite, Over at the Frankenstein Place, and of course the Time Warp.
Every character is great in their own way. Tim Curry in his film debut deserved all of his plaudits for mastering the role. Sarandon and Bostwick are very good as what can be seen as the protagonists. O'Brien's Riff Raff is a very interesting character, one of my favourites. Patricia Quinn's Magenta is full of flair. My fellow Aussie Nell Campbell puts in an underrated performance as Columbia. The other four characters- Dr Scott, Rocky Horror, the Criminologist and Eddie also have key supporting roles.
The plot is genius is a ridiculous sort of way. Transvestites from outer space? As also mentioned by bigj1415, the messages and themes of the film are interesting and thought provoking.
Overall, the Rocky Horror Picture Show is one of my favourite movies, and I will never deny an opportunity to watch it. 10/10… Expand
Jan 27, 2013This film is odd, so let's just get that out of the way. It starts off a lot stronger than it finishes, and while it has some strong performances from the cast and some great musical numbers it's all just a little too left of center for me. The whole 'alien' thing was a little unexpected and sort of throws the film off balance, as does most of the last half hour. Overall it will be remembered for those songs like 'Time Warp' but the movie itself is just plain weird and not one I would recommend.… Expand
Nov 15, 2012lets do some detective work... you take rocky horror picture show. well obv all movies are picture shows and all scary movies are horror... all you are left with is "rocky." this movie is worse than the rockies that i have seen (regular, Balboa) and much gayer.
only reason people like this is because other people like it and they want to fit in. there is a lesson here and that is BE YORUSELF
Nov 15, 2012this movie was rpetty bad, at least i think. i don't know why it has an 8.1 here!! this movie has NO JOKES in it at all and NO SCARY either. your supposed to watch it in a room full of nerds who shout stupid stuff at it that is also not funny. it is a ripoff of rifftrax but less funy.
Nov 5, 2012To celebrate the Halloween, inadvertently I found out that this perennial cult classic would be shown in cinemas with its original version, which prompted my belated viewing of this notorious B-movie tour-de-force for the first time, although B-movie has evaded my entire childhood and I have barely watched any the classics to which the film pays its overt tribute, but, the film is a satisfactory and daring musical with its campy costumes and music arrangement (a **** of Glam Rock-New Wave-Nu-Disco musical numbers and giddying dancing routines), a perfect option for its groupies and people who are repellent to horror genre in Halloween. There were a bunch of devotees inside the full-packed screen hall, but the sing-along spectacle didn… Expand
Apr 2, 2012This is a bad movie. Probably give it a 3 and I'm surprise I'm giving them that. It just so stupid. They're nothing good at all in this movie. I dont see why you like it this much. Its so stupid. This is for the mental challenged. Don't watch this movie. I'm Savin you here.
Nov 1, 2011The Rocky Horror Picture Show is best described as "high camp". That is to say, the film is a masterclass in gaudy costumes, flamboyant song-and-dance numbers and hammy dialogue - it's fully aware of what it is and is not afraid to exploit it to the nth degree. Rocky Horror is far more than a mere camp-classic, however, it's an extremely clever semi-parody of cheap 50s sci-fi movies presented in the form of a rock-musical - there's nothing else like it in the world! The film has undeniably become a cultural phenomenon over the years thanks to its fanatical cult following, and it's easy to see why. The songs are catchy and easy to join in with, there's plenty of humour throughout, of both the unashamedly bizarre and more grounded variety, and of course, there's Tim Curry. He gives the performance of his career as Dr. Frank N. Furter - part mad scientist, part cross-dressing rockstar, and you can't help but smile whenever he's on screen. The creative mind behind the whole Rocky Horror project (both film and stage show), Richard O'Brien needs to be commended for bringing together such a staggeringly wide range of ideas into one (relatively) coherent entity - he's obviously an avid film fan, so he packs Rocky Horror full of references for cinephiles to lap up, but he's also a talented song and screen writer, musician and of course he portrays the decidedly creepy, yet strangely likeable "handyman" Riff Raff. You're carried along supping this strange filmic **** quite happily for the majority of the film, but it is in its last twenty minutes or so that Rocky Horror disappoints a little. It's almost as though everyone's run out of steam, and so we drift towards a rather damp and unsatisfying conclusion. Perhaps we were taken in by all the bright lights and fishnets of the rest of the film, but the fact remains that Rocky Horror's final act is its weakest element. That said, you'll hardly care if you see The Rocky Horror Picture Show as it was meant to be seen - with a group of friends, perhaps dressed up, and participating in the whole experience, especially the Time Warp.… Expand
Nov 1, 2011Rocky Horror is definitely a film of two halves. The first half is a wonderfully chipper exercise in fantastical film making. The second unfortunately drags as the film becomes too wrapped up in making a point, be it through the music, or the bizarre costumes. However the 2nd half doesnt stop Rocky from being one of the most unique, exhilarating films I have seen in a while with an opening hour that trundles along at a brisk pace to some loud and proud musical numbers too wonderful to spoil.
The best part of Rocky, even as the film turns glacial towards the end is Tim Curry. His portrayal of Dr Frank N Furter is so honest and electric that he lights up the screen. He is so incredibly fearless in his actions and his performance, its a pleasure to watch. The film strives for camp and achieves it but it also has great satire mixed in providing some hilarious moments. Overall the film is thoroughly original with some great comedy and musical numbers with a great lead in Tim Curry. It's only flaw is the last 30 minutes slow the story down so much it ruins the thrill given by the rest of it.… Expand
Oct 5, 2011"The Rocky Horror PIcture Show" is a terrible example of what happens when you forcefully fuse different genres into one big pot. Nevertheless, the music is great and at least the film earns recognition as the 'godfather' of all cult films mostly due to a true crazy performance by Tim Curry. A fan boy must-watch.
Jan 30, 2011Totally on the money as a representation of dark humour but time has aged this film and there is no denying that it is not scary. Tim Curry is made of the stuff of legends and he is the only bright spark in an otherwise slightly dull experience. Wholly relevant but underwhelming and slightly too niche for my tastes. I am sure this works better as literature or musical. 72/100
Oct 11, 2010Couple at wedding, get engaged themselves, long drive home, take wrong turn & get puncture, stop at castle, gender-bending mayhem.
Richard O'Brien's musical which has caused students to dress up in underwear everywhere and do that bloody dance!
It is very tongue-in-cheek, and the songs are well written, mostly in that early 70s style with a fifities feels that was going on at the time, although some of the acting a little wooden. Tim Curry however stands out oozing sexuality as the cross-dressing Frank N Furter & blows everyone else away whatever scene he is in.… Expand
Oct 1, 2010An amazing movie with many themes and messages. From the concept of pleasure to human worth this movie is truly a thought provoking interesting viewing experience. The music and wildness is also a plus!
The material inspires affection, given its knowing pastiche of everything from Universal horrors to '50s grade-Z sci-fi, and a shamelessly hedonistic, fiercely independent sensibility that must have seemed a welcome relief from the mainstream bombast of other '70s musicals.
Dr. Furter is played by a British actor named Tim Curry, who bears a certain resemblance to Loretta Young in drag. He's the best thing in the movie, maybe because he seems to be having the most fun.
Most of the jokes that might have seemed jolly fun on stage now appear obvious and even flat. The sparkle's gone.

Last Thursday night, fashionistas nationwide celebrated Fashion's Night Out. I had the honor of helping Matt Goss award one talented young designer, Jimi, a first-place distinction, an honor that included getting to spend one day with me at Vegas magazine! I hope I can come up with something glam enough for this creative soul. Afterwards, we set up a Forum Shops booth with Christian Dior Beauty to show off the magazine. It was a girls' wonderland, makeovers and scents by Christian Dior.
Enough makeup for an army — plus talented Christian Dior makeup artists to apply it.
I ducked over to David Yurman for a glass of champagne and a dry-ice meringue treat. It was bright blue, cold, and made smoke come out of your mouth!
The current issue of Vegas magazine, where I spend 99 percent of my waking hours… My current editor's letter on cover star Kaley Cuoco, the female lead in my favorite comedy show Big Bang Theory: Fashion with a Bang
Or look at photos from our cover party with Kaley herself! I had been having a tough time, but I'm so glad I was able to "grin and bear it" as they say. It was an amazing night!

I was 5'8 and around 300 or so with DS and we had 2 3D ultrasounds and they turned out fantastic! The only time we had issues was on the second when DS was facing backwards and refused to turn around. Other than that it was totally worth it!

DS born 5/1/2010~*~DD born 9/30/2013 ~*~
I am bigger than you and I just went to find out my babys gender at 16 weeks and they did a quick peak in 3d and it was great :)
Knowing this will be my last lo I am so wanting to do this, I can't wait till I am far enough along that it will be worth the money. Thank you for this thread I was wondering if i should even try being at 300.

The Anti-Mediocrity
A curated list of tools and resources to help you pursue your dreams and beat mediocrity.
A primer on our call to missional living.
Reading List
A list of books that have inspired and aided me in my quest to beat mediocrity.
A free 24-page guide to help you declutter, reprioritize and take action in your life.
There is an assumption among those who work full time that certain suggestions don't apply to them:
- pursue what you love
- do more interesting things
- travel
- don't be boring
Somehow, these encouragements for everyone are misconstrued as commands to the sluggards and the couch potatoes. Well, here's your post! This one goes out to the 40-hour-a-week-ers!
Your time matters too.
I put my tree up a week ago. Sue me.
When it comes to Christmas, I operate by a strict NTF policy - November to February. When 11-01 rolls around, the tree is going up and the tunes are coming on.
Hey kid! I've got a proposition for ya, I think you're gonna love it. You know I'm running my own company and we've done pretty well over the last five years... well, I was thinking that once you graduated college you might like to come work for me! I've got a position with your name on it. It's a pretty good job if I do say so myself... you'll be making six figures to start not to mention bonuses, a company car and some great perks. Anyway, if you're up for it, I have a few requests for you. I want you to complete every homework assignment, make A's on every exam, get involved in a student life organization on campus and volunteer at the local food shelters on the weekends. If you can do that, the job is yours. Waddaya say kid?
Doodles, by their very nature, are non-threatening.
I mean, seriously... doodles? Rather than have religious doctrine laid out in front of you in all its complexity and depth for the first time, wouldn't you rather your friend buy you a cup of coffee and ask the barista for a few extra napkins to doodle on? See, here's the cool part about it - no one expects doodles to convey the complexities. No one sketches a Rembrandt and expects the viewer to stand in awe or examine the play of light and color or admire the details... because you can't. So if you ask an art aficionado to give you a beginner's lesson on Rembrandt and he pulls out a napkin and his sketch pen, you don't freak out. You expect simply to hit the highlights - to ski the bunny slopes. In the same vein, when you pull out a napkin to share the Gospel, your listener doesn't expect incredibly daunting theology to be thrust upon them but rather a crash course. With a napkin, the concept is so utterly familiar that you feel like, at least on a rudimentary level, you can understand it! No one is afraid of a napkin.
The emphasis on individuality in our culture has infected the minds of everyone, myself included. While that may sound unnecessarily ominous, the impact is quite larger than many believe it to be. We are one of the relatively small number of cultures that puts such large stock in being your own person, being self-sufficient, riding solo etc. Many other cultures place greater emphasis, instead, on family, working teams, groups and larger functioning units of society. The understanding behind this way of life, that I'm afraid is being lost in our culture, is that our lives, though we may have persuaded ourselves otherwise, have a huge impact on other people.
In that moment I was grounded. I could feel the fire. I could taste the coffee. I could hear the music. I soaked it all in, intentionally ingraining the memory in my mind. Surrounding me sat some of the men who I respect most in life and my stomach was full on southern cooking - it couldn't get much better than that.
Sometimes it's okay to not know the answer.
Our culture openly praises foolishness.
I wish I could make exceptions for my friends, family... even myself. Yet it seems that no matter what situation I find myself in, I'm greeted by the incessant boasting of feats that do nothing but publicly display the boaster's ignorance, lack of self-control or, in some instances, complete idiocy. If I may make a reference to pop culture to illustrate my point, turn your attention to one of our "stars."
Evernote is the best tool that I have found to help you live a smoother, stress-free life by helping you declutter and organize you mind with little effort. If you're new to Evernote, check out the crash course. I also wrote another post taking a deeper look at my personal system for organizing my Notes for those freaks like me who are interested in obsessive, organizational structure. While crammed with great information for the traditional Evernote users, these two posts didn't explore the cooler, lesser-known functions of Evernote. Let's move past the basics and show you a few tricks to becoming an Evernote ninja.
Evernote has been an invaluable tool to help me organize my life. It allows me to mind-vomit my thoughts, inspiration, lists, questions, work and more so that I can get everything out of my head.
I wrote this post explaining that process on using Evernote to help you destress, hone your focus and begin creating the best work of your life. But I wanted to go a bit further in unveiling my personal processes to help y'all understand just how customizable you can get and hopefully inspire y'all to have fun creating your own system.
As a blogger, designer, photographer, business owner, author, former student, employee, avid reader, compulsive list maker and more, sometimes my mind can get a little too cluttered and it's in those moments that I need a place to unload it all. For the past several years, Evernote has served that purpose and continues to do so incredibly well. For those that are not familiar with it, it is a digital note-taking application that syncs across all of your devices and can be used to store documents, text, audio, images, lists and more so that you always have access to your information.
In a previous post, "How to Relieve Stress and Create the Best Work of Your Life," I walked you through three steps to help you boost productivity. Those steps included unloading your brain, organizing that information and making it accessible to you at any given time.
As a follow up on those thoughts, I want to walk you through the powerful functions of Evernote and show you why I've chosen it as my tool of choice. I believe that everyone can leverage this tool to help them improve their focus, their productivity, their organization, their creativity and their timeliness.
I have been fascinated by the practices and rituals of the world's elite. Those masterminds who consistently seem to be producing extraordinary content and still find time to read 50 books a year. How do they juggle everything that they have going on without collapsing under the demands on their time and energy?
What I'm about to show you is a proven system for many individuals to help them improve their focus, produce their best work and manage their time without compromising their sanity.
Camping, like other activities, has a small learning curve. If we aren't used to being without certain conveniences, we might find ourselves stumped over an ordinarily simple task. Here are a few of the essentials of camping to help you along.
I woke up and groggily stepped outside of my room. As I opened the door I was immediately welcomed by a cool, fall breeze. My heart skipped a beat as the fresh air awakened my senses.
"YES!" I thought. "Fall is here."
And when fall is here, it means camping season is here. Warm fires, wool socks, black coffee (or not) and flap jacks - it's all a part of the magic of camping in Autumn. If you have never been camping, don't worry! I got your back.
Now that the cool weather is setting in, it's time to break out the sleeping bags and marshmallows. Camping has been a part of my life since childhood and I absolutely crave it. For a short time, as the dry, autumn leaves rustle beneath your feet, nothing else matters.
For some, however, they can't imagine why anyone would want to sleep on the hard ground, smell like smoke, potentially freeze at night and pee behind a tree. Allow me to explain:
A well-read gentleman (or lady) understands the inherent and artistic value of a curated book list. If you are an avid reader already, perhaps you have a collection of authors who's books you eagerly consume and cherish. Collecting a personal library of books is a wonderfully easy (and relatively cheap) way of building a "board of advisors" so to speak. Books are the compact, organized package of knowledge and wisdom from brilliant minds across the centuries making it, easily, one of the most beneficial investments of our time and money.
In a time when people are reading almost constantly whether it be a text message or an advertisement, it really is quite incredible how few books are being read. The long-form book is rarely appreciated for what it truly brings to the table. In my own recent efforts to become a better man, I wanted to reacquaint myself with the physical, hard-copy book that I used to know and love. It wasn't until I began reading regularly that I fell in love with reading again. I hope you'll join me in my reading adventures. Perhaps, first, we should look to the benefits of reading. The following fourteen listed here are benefits that I have come to see first-hand in my own life.
Potential energy is energy stored within a substance, waiting to be released, such as a coiled spring. Kinetic, on the other hand, is active energy, found often in detonated atomic bombs or small children.
In regards to our faith, we often live with a potential faith instead of a kinetic faith. Misguided by cultural expectations or perhaps just ignorant of what Jesus asks of His disciples, people store faith away as an intellectual pursuit, never realizing it as an active lifestyle.
We should take ownership of our faith because faith, like life, must be kinetic to grow and move forward.
I woke up and rolled over, turning off the alarm. Looking at my clock, I saw it was around one in the morning. I silently crept into the computer room, switched on the monitor and my face lit up with the cool glow. I pulled up a web browser - I think it may have been Internet Explorer back then - and did a quick Google search for...
I am one of those people who loves things to be just so; I like my pens lined up in perfect rows on my desk and my coffee to be the (Okay, it's not that bad). Sometimes, this desire for perfection in everything I do tends to cause this enormous pile of content that I have created but haven't put out there to the world. I've got about a hundred ideas in my Evernote notebooks that are marinating, waiting for me to cross the t's and dot the i's before I let them breathe.
I've been trying to break this habit and, as a result, in the last eight months I have:
- Published a book
- Created a 24-page life-planning guide
- Launched this blog where I continue to publish content three times per week
- Began sending out a inspirational Newsletter once a week
- Backpacked Europe with my friend (our "plans" consisting of a tentative schedule of which countries we would hit in what order)
Questions and fears must be bombarding you right now. I know the feeling! Let's address a few of those concerns:
Giving a pep-talk is something of an art form. A good pep-talk will leave you speechless (or grunting manly chants) but not weak. Your mind, heart, and soul will be emblazoned with a fiery desire to do... something. Anything, really. Some days, a good pep-talk is all we need to get our blood pumping, our creative juices flowing and our gears grinding.
WARNING: viewing the following videos may result in:
- Sprinting up a mountain
- Investing all of your money into volatile stocks
- Asking out that cute girl you've had your eye on
- Threatening a bully who is more than 3x your size
These pep-talks are chicken soup for the passionate soul.
Eat up, my friend.
Many of you reading this blog are recent graduates or soon-to-be graduates. But for those of you who are *ahem* familiar with the game of life, don't go away. These Commencement Addresses have both inspired and entertained me with the perfect mix of wisdom, wrapped up in humor.
You'll recognize the familiar faces of these speakers - they've become national icons and for good reason. Without further ado...
I'm sure that you have heard of the 7 Deadly Sins (or at least seen the movie Se7en): Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, Pride.
What would happen if, taking a cue from Scripture, we lived in such a way as to do the reverse of such sins?
When we go back to our roots - stories were how we communicated. It allowed us to show others what we understood and why we understood it instead of trying to trick them, seduce them, or force them into aligning their worldview with ours. Stories often resonate with people because it leads them to a familiar experience. Sometimes those familiar experiences are ones that tap into an old memory and bring back to life a wealth of emotion. Sometimes, however, we can tell a story that takes people back to experiences they wished they had. This is equally as powerful as we are able to give them a taste of what can be instead of what was. We can inspire, connect, explain, and resonate through story.
I have put together a list of 52 Blog Topics to give you an action plan for the next year (post once per week). These topics will allow you to Inspire, Equip, Counsel and Refer your readers, engaging them on a personal and meaningful level. Tell beautiful stories!
In America, we see poverty, hunger, homelessness... but rarely to the extent that some children across the world are subject to. Children go shoeless, drink filthy water, sleep under tarps and lack basic education. One of the three prongs of vibrant living is purposeful living - service. Giving back just because we have an opportunity to make a difference. Well, here's your chance!
Before, when I have written on the idea of a Guide, I have spoken in terms of you finding those respected heroes in your life to guide you (here are my guides) through your journeys. At the very end of this post, however, I pointed out the somewhat frightening thought that we might very well be someone else's guide, whether we know it or not! *Begin Frantic Panicking Now* But what does that mean?!? No one ever tells us what it means to be a guide. How the heck are we supposed to mentor someone? I've identified four things (I'm sure there're more.. don't freak out) that I believe guides are called to do.
Imagine waking up to a larger bank account than you had when you fell asleep. Crazy right?
It's a reality for a lot of people who have created a passive, online (usually) business and it can be a reality for you too. WARNING: it takes some hard work in the beginning, but the payoff will come! People around the world are pursuing what they love and turning into a full-time, sustainable business that generates enough revenue to support their family.
The best part is that you don't have to go pro right off the bat. Growing a business takes time and you can start off by just earning an extra $500-$1,000 per month to give you some extra spending money (or capital to grow your business!).
Here are the first four steps to testing your business idea - you can do these in 10 minutes or less using the tool that I'm giving you guys at the bottom of this post. Hopefully, this will at least show you the feasibility of starting a business.
A while back I wrote a post on Guides. Guides help to shape us and also help to move us from one point along our story arc to another. The crazy part about the modern world is that we can choose our own guides and be guides to others without ever shaking their hand or sitting down for coffee. Many of my guides are people I have never met (though I hope to some day). I have gleaned so much from the gentlemen below and I just wanted to share a little of their stories with you so that perhaps you can learn from them as well.
Bad habits die hard and good habits come slowly. This is why it is important for us to begin small. Small tasks are generally easier to manage, don't take up too much time and aren't as intimidating. You're confident that you can complete this task with no sweat. Begin small, win small. This concept of small wins is a clever way to seduce our brains into committing to something that will turn into a much larger undertaking.
I once heard an example given for flossing your teeth. It's a hard habit to adopt - I've tried! But what if I commit to flossing one tooth per day. Just one.
