8 Steps To (Finally) Get Serious About Your Professional Life
As you guys have probably guessed, I'm serrrrrrious about my professional life. As evidenced here. Not everyone needs to be (or should be!) a nose-to-the-grindstone, I-find-worth-through-work sort of human. But for me, building a career + life I love, from scratch, on my own terms through my own hard work has brought me a level of confidence and comfort unlike anything else. Yes! Even more than...

Yes, I want to know how you can afford that shiny, new...

That may be true, but it's also true that getting dentures and osteoporosis at 45 is boring and un-fun. 8 ways...
How To Do 10 Things (At Least Slightly) Better
Friends! We're knee-deep into summer and I'm going to take the smallest of breathers. I've got two weeks of travel coming up, along with my birthday, and launching a big 'ol offering. I'm going to go to the lake, eat one metric ton of raspberries, and remember what the stars look like outside the reach of street lights. We'll be back to business as usual with Web Time Wasters on Sunday...
New Thing: Pay For A Stranger’s Meal
Each year I make a list of new things I want to try. Then I do them and write about them. You can read about previous shenanigans here. If, for some unknown reason, you've been paying undue and devoted attention to the 'New Things' I plan to do (they're over there in the sidebar) you might have noticed that 'Pay for a stranger's meal' has been lurking there - unchecked off - for the last...
