Simple and Radical
It’s not always good having conversations with some people if you want to avoid challenges. I had such an experience recently. My associate was explaining how he found it odd that on a Sunday morning people would gather in a building for a few hours but have little to no impact on the surrounding area […]

The sporting context was the first time I really appreciated partnerships. In as much as it is a team sport with 11 players on each side, there were certain areas where two players connected to be productive for the team because of the understanding they developed.

From my mid-teens to my early twenties I dabbled a little in songwriting. There were tunes that came to my head that I was happy to craft lyrics for. The craft of getting a lyric would sometimes be the inspiration for the whole song. I loved that whole creative process. What those times taught me […]
