Possibly, you have read another blog I created The Collective. I’m sure you’re wondering, “Why here and not there?” You might also be wondering, “What are […]
How I went “Back to the Future”
Ummm…it’s been a while. It has been exactly 31 days since my last post. One month. In blog time, it’s like a million years. Let me share what is happening in my world. Back to the Future I’m moving into the future, looking back at my past. Growing up, one of my favorite movies was Back […]
Failure hurts. Admitting failure hurts worse.
Great leaders. I love reading, learning and applying leadership skills. A good leader is the able to assess a situation and determine whether it is working well or not. A great leader not only assesses the situation accurately, but a great leader makes tough decisions that are best for the organization (business, church, family, etc). […]
Stop wishing. Start taking pictures.
How to overcome the “I wish” mentality Last month, I read and passed on an article from ProBlogger about being stuck in the “I want to be a professional” stage.

A Happy (Hopeful) Easter to you!
The older I get the more I appreciate Easter as a religious holiday – beyond family gatherings, Easter egg huts, baby animals, and fake grass. I find meaning in the old passing away, and the new coming to life. I write a lot about life and hope on The Collective. I know there are all […]

The top 11 life posts on 2011
It all flows from your life. Of all 3 categories, this was the most fun for me. It gave me a glimpse of what I’ve dealt with, struggled through, and overcome. Your business and photography will only be as deep and successful as your life. It’s why The Collective dedicates a third of our categories […]
It’s Saturday. Let’s wrap.
I was looking at the calendar earlier this week. It’s amazing to me how at the same time Christmas/New Years can feel so far away and so close. I’m sure you are feeling the pressure even more than I am. It’s almost over 🙂 Here is a list of everything you’ve missed while scrambling to […]
20 Things I’m thankful for. What about you?
This will be my last post of the week. I’m taking some time off for Thanksgiving. I’ll be back with great new information on Monday. Tuesday I’ll be introducing December’s Submission contest…it’s going to be HUGE! I read a nice post last week from Michael Hyatt. It’s perfect for Thanksgiving. I encourage you to read […]
Everything you missed on last week.
One of the things I love about blogging and specifically The Collective is don’t know how each week is going look like. I have a general idea, but each week is different. This week may be one of the best weeks of combined information I’ve put together in a while. Take a look to see […]
