(Link is live in the actual blog and not on the homepage blurb). Close you eyes and just listen. Then after 5 minutes open your eyes and see how the sound is created. Simply amazing!

It’s time to hit the campaign trial! I am not referring to Ferrell and Galifianakis in the movie “The Campaign” that was released last week, but rather the “other two” that are on their presidential campaign trail. I travel a fair amount (about 165,000 miles a year) but can’t even begin to fathom the millions of miles they must travel. (I do suppose it’s a tad different in Air Force One compared to Southwest Airlines, right?) OK, so this is not a political post. My Weekly wisdom [...]

Tenacity Creates Incredibly Inspiring Stories	RSS
Life is difficult for most people. Striving and achieving at any level requires talent, focus, commitment and tons of endurance.

As a brutal business environment meets a soft economy, business leaders and managers are looking for sources of both inspiration and survival. This compelling new business fable offers a riveting tale of life in Africa’s Serengeti and what lessons it holds for today’s beleaguered business people and struggling society.

The wisdom of Surviving Your Serengeti reveals that no journey is ever too long, too far or too difficult. It reassures us that nothing is impossible, that we can overcome any obstacle and survive our own serengeti. The 1.5 million wildebeest rely on stubborn endurance and support from the herd to survive; the alligator is opportunistic; the cheetah ruthlessly effective; the giraffe embodies grace, the lion a master strategist, the mongoose is a risk-taker, the elephant is an excellent communicator.

So which animal are you?

What's your survival strategy?
