More and more often I see folks denying themselves their paid vacation time, especially the younger folks. And there are others who go on vacation but log on each day, and basically work, just from another location. Does this sound right? No, no, and no. Reasons I've heard and felt myself at times for not going ...
Last week...starting Monday morning felt like a week that was just headed down the wrong train path. I was stuck on the track and could never get back to the right place or in the right direction. I spilled matcha (yes, my favorite) all over my laptop, I overslept, I couldn't get ahead of my ...

There's something about that "red dot" that cat's can't help but run after. It's elusive. It's a chase. It's clever. And it's for a challenge. No matter how many times they fail or think they almost have it, they won't give up. Some are smart enough to realize the source of that red dot, and ...
