Intention Matters to Improve & Grow
Many of you have heard me say that I feel like I have discovered the secret to life. HONESTLY, I really feel like I got it, I figured it out. After a few decades of life you start to pickup a few things. The whole idea is that we are supposed to learn stuff and get wiser. I have instilled the essence of my life so far, and I want to pass it on in the simplest form, so people say, “GOT IT! – That is good stuff”! That is the purpose of why I wrote Be the Sun, Not the Salt, and why I continue to talk with you all about building intentional habits to be your best selves!
Be The Sun...

...Not The Salt
WHAT – For some of us, being Sunny is a bridge too far. Some days it’s just too far for any of us. When you are in these moments, just know it is really powerful to not pour salt on people’s roots.
