Grease Isn’t the Word. Discipline Is.

Remember the movie Grease? The title song goes, “Grease is the word, is the word, is the word.” Well, my word for 2013 is not “grease.” While it’s a perfectly good word, it really doesn’t do much for me. It’s just a bit, well, greasy. Discipline, on the other hand, is what I need. And […]

A Post-Thanksgiving Reminder

Ron’s latest Huffington Post blog: I’m a big fan of Thanksgiving because the focus is so simple. It’s all about the food and the fellowship. Unlike Christmas, there are no Thanksgiving gifts, no special decorations, and no fear of offending someone who might not believe in turkey when I say, “Happy Thanksgiving.” This year, however, […]

Please Don’t Pass Those Who Have Passed

I was on my way to a meeting the other day when I spotted a funeral procession a few cars in front of me. It was 7:30……in the morning……Eastern Standard Time. Who gets buried at that time of the day? Most people are not in that much of a hurry to get to the cemetery. Nonetheless, I […]

Running Away from New Experiences

Recently, I read an article about a man who is running from Los Angeles to San Francisco…backwards…to inspire people to try something new. Apparently, this guy has been running backwards for 46 years and even competed in few marathons. It brings a whole new meaning to “he took out several competitors along the way.” I […]

Airplane Etiquette – Give Me My Space

As a frequent traveler who will achieve the coveted 1K status this year (coveted for its benefits, not for the time away from home), I know a little bit about travel etiquette. But recently, I have encountered a number of violators. So, in the spirit of making the experience better and more fun for all […]

How to Get “It” Back When You’re Not Feeling “It”

Ron’s newest Huffington Post blog: The basis for my work is a concept called “Do IT well and make IT fun.” And when I refer to the IT, I’m not referring to information technology, but rather that IT in our life that is the basis of all that. It’s the essence of the phrase, “You’ve […]
