This land is my land… 5 years ago this summer, Kia and I purchased a piece of property. We had come to a fork in the road, and we knew we needed to make a decision. We made a choice, and continued down the path. It took us somewhere we weren’t planning. We originally looked […]
10 things you definitely don’t know about me.
I was called out. My friend (via the internet world) Elizabeth Simmons called me out on her blog Out to Lunch… a couple of weeks ago. She describes this as a ‘meme’ “Memes” are cultural symbols and social ideas that spread virally. In the same way that a flu bug travels from person to person, memes travel through social […]
Forget your weaknesses. What are your strengths?
Who are you learning from? I read 2 blogs every day (among a host of others I read on a regular basis) – Seth Godin and Michael Hyatt. Hyatt focuses on practical tips for leadership, social media, productivity and publishing. At least every week I learn something new in the core areas that Hyatt covers […]
5 steps to grow and learn from your 2012 word.
The origin of RISK. Last week, I shared my word for 2012 – RISK. When I narrowed on that word it came as a shock to me. I fully intended the word to be “intentional” based on my lessons from my 2011 word – FREEDOM. Looking back on why I chose RISK, I see 2 […]
It’s okay. You’re not alone.
Time for a road trip. Last weekend, Kia and I returned from a 13 day road trip with our 4 kids. We logged over 3000 miles and 9 states of driving. Our goal was my dad and step-mom in West Palm Beach, Florida, but along the way we stopped to visit family and friends. Some […]

Here are some of my favorite posts: Child-like. Expanse. Videos that represent these feelings. Open space May Update – Danny MacAskill Ask. Believe. Receive. It’s the Journey. […]

I love writing. I love sharing other people’s writing. Being able to express my thoughts, ideas and opinions on a regular basis is so healthy. You seem to be enjoying it too. October was the biggest month ever (again), and the last week of October was the biggest week we’ve ever had. Thank you for […]
Escaping the Killer D.
Yesterday, I shared that the US is beginning to go back to our old ways of increasing debt, and that no studio ever needs to be in debt (and showed why). Find that article here: Return of the Killer D. The truth is that many of us are in debt already, so how do we […]
Take your business to the next level: Define the why
Simon Sinek has given, what I feel, is one of the best TED talks ever. Despite some technical difficulties and low-tech methods of sharing, Sinek gives a 20 minute talk that wraps up why some businesses fail (or fail to be incredible) and other businesses are GREAT. You can watch the video at the end […]
Best. Day. Ever.
My wedding day. 16 years ago today, I had the best day ever. I deeply connected with one of the most amazing people in the world. I can’t imagine life without living that day. It changed my world for the better. On August 12, 1995, I married Kia Gabrielle Antisdel. I have so many great memories of […]
