The First Step in Your Story

Yes you do!  You have a story to tell – the one that captures the spirit and essence of your life lived to this point.   OK, I heard that response – have heard it from others as well.  Your story IS important and it DOES matter.  You just have not given the telling of it

What’s So Golden About a Rule?

Remember hearing about the “Golden Rule”?  Seems parents and school teachers in my day used it a lot, generally quoted like this: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
