A Man and His Baby
When a couple steps forth with a baby in tow everything in life is stable and normal. People hold open doors, hard shopkeepers “chuck” and go all gooey before catching themselves and generally life is an easy ride. But gentlemen, when he who dares...
Does It Take "Soft" Skills to Win the BT Global Challenge?
Have you heard of the BT Global Challenge? It’s known as the world’s toughest yacht race because it’s sailed “the wrong way” ‘round the world—against prevailing winds and currents. All kinds of waves and weather conditions are likely to be...
Putting Spirit First: Goals For Your Soul
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matt. 6:33
If you've ever set very many goals, you've probably had at least one goal that you just can't seem to reach. You
can't seem...
Treasure in the Andes
I awoke to strange surroundings, my first view of the plaster-peeling room in which I had spent the night being afforded by the early-morning sunrise on the Bolivian Altiplano. After arriving near midnight in the frigid darkness of the high...
Who's watching you? Men aren't the only stalkers.
For decades, the label "stalker’ has been tattooed as a gender-specific crime, committed by men. Things have changed drastically. Twelve to 13-percent of all stalkers are female. Although less in statistical number than males, female stalkers are...

Are We Having Fun Yet?
Many years ago, while serving in the U.S. Air Force, I was lucky enough to work for a commander, Lieutenant Colonel Mike Danielle, who first introduced me to an idea that I have since adopted as one of my primary 'operating principles.'
The idea?
Simply that first order of business each and every day was to, as he put it, "have fun by God!"
One of the things LTCOL Danielle understood was, regardless of how seriously we dealt with our jobs as members of the military, we would be more effective and moreMORE successful if we were having fun doing them.
It's an idea that sounds good, that is attractive to almost everyone, but that few people actually practice. It's not that they don't want to, mind you. It's just that they forget.
Sometimes having fun requires effort, some forethought, maybe even a little planning. The results can be tremendous, however, as we rejuvenate ourselves, shake-off the tension, and remember to laugh at life and to enjoy the wonder in the little things going on around us.
So let me ask: Are you having fun? If not, it's time to start...
Make a list of your
top10 favorite fun activities. Maybe you like to read for fun, or rock-climb, or jog, or go sailing, whatever. Just make sure that the activities you list are things that you really love to do for fun!
Once complete, pick one of those activities to do this week and put it on your schedule. No ifs, ands, or buts! Make it an appointment.... even if you have to cancel something else. After all, that's the point!
Now it's just a matter of keeping your appointment with yourself to have a little fun.
Don't stop there, though. Next week, go back to your list and pick another activity and schedule *that* into your calendar. And do it again the next week, and the next, and the next.
Before you know it, you'll be having fun all of the time! You'll feel better at work and at home and your outlook on like will be more upbeat and positive. So get up, get going, and start having fun!
