While careful thought and consideration have value, the truth is that there are too many variables in life to fully predict an outcome. Procrastination and indecision kill us slowly and leave us none the wiser.

The good news is that you are not the only one who doesn’t care for plastic smiles and inauthenticity. Genuine connections get you a lot further than just passing out business cards.

Despite the risk of temporary discomfort, most of us are a lot happier and more confident when we are self-expressed and being our authentic selves.

As a belated tribute to Martin Luther King Jr. this video (and article) talks about the power of vision. It is easy to get caught up in the minutia of life. This talks about 3 benefits of having a big #vision. #MLKday

For everyone who feels like business development events are drudgery, @Protorae_Law gave a great example of a really fun event. I was so happy to be invited to their 1920's Speakeasy party. Can't wait to see what they do next year! #Lawyers #businessdevelopment #party
