It's easy to say: I hate the cold. Winter sucks. I want summer. I've done it. You've done it. It's normal to feel a little frustrated - and definitely after - 20 feet of snow (hello, Boston last year). But instead of grumbling and being a bit of a winter grinch as I've seen many be (and I'm sure ...
Beyond the Small Talk
Small talk. It's small. It's usually boring. And it's usually a conversation you forget before you started. Unfortunately, it's a necessarily evil at times. At networking events. Parties.

The Nine Rules for My Daily Life
Sometimes each day passes as fast as the next. You don't realize that it's already Wednesday or Thursday until you look up from the daily grind and the madness that has become blatant routine.
