Get Your Wasted Time Back

March 12, 2015 by Steve Laswell

Okay, I admit it, I’m not a fan of Daylight Saving Time. I wish our clocks could be left alone, aligned with high noon.

There’s little evidence DST achieves its primary goal of energy savings.  According to SleepBetter.org the Lost Hour costs the American economy $434 million in lost production and medical expenses. Regardless, we continue this costly practice.

Research shows that workers…

Feast On This Platter When Overwhelmed

March 5, 2015 by Steve Laswell

The Grande is a platter on Abuelo’s menu. It’s promoted as “The ultimate combination!”  Seriously. Three enchiladas, a chile relleno, a tamale, crispy beef taco, and guacamole. (I recommend substituting veggies for the rice and beans and a tamale for the chile relleno.)

While waiting for The Grande to be created, warm chips and salsa become the foundation for this “small” platter. To avoid feeling stuffed…

An Action Step with the Power of SuperGlue

February 19, 2015 by Steve Laswell

Have you noticed how knowing what to do is helpful only when it is combined with taking action?

You’ve heard it said, “Knowledge is Power.” Well, Dale Carnegie took it a step further when he wrote, “Knowledge isn’t power until it is applied.” He reminds us that if we want to achieve success in life something has to change.

“Knowledge is not power. It’s potential power.” writes…

Benefitting You More than a Flu Shot

January 23, 2015 by Steve Laswell

It’s a simple question. People ask it a lot at this time of the year: “Have you had your flu shot?”

“No, I think it made me sick, last year.”

“I’m healthy, no need to be vaccinated.”

“Seriously, the flu is just a cold gone bad.”

“I got one last year, I’m covered.”

These are only a few of the myths attached to the flu shot, according to…

The Absurdity That Keeps You Comfortable

January 8, 2015 by Steve Laswell

Described as a “large, hairy, bipedal humanoid” it’s better known as Bigfoot. The story is folklore, misidentification, and hoax. Scientists consider the creature’s existence absurd; there just isn’t any physical evidence. Woodsmen and campers you can breathe easy.

Still, articles like this appear, “What’s The Most Absurd Big Foot Photo You’ve Ever Seen?” It seems John Rodriguez, a retired electrician, is stuck trying to prop up…

What about your adventure?

December 31, 2014 by Steve Laswell

Cody Townsend took his passion to the next level – a new level. Watch as he straight-lines a vertical chute deep in Alaska’s Tordrillos Mountain Range at about 60 miles per hour.

Cody made that run for a new film, “Days of My Youth.” The movie offers “a unique glimpse into the journey of self-discovery that every skier experiences.”

What will you discover?

Today, an adventure awaits you….

Where do you need peace?

December 24, 2014 by Steve Laswell

Sy Miller and Jill Jackson were a husband and wife songwriting team. They dreamed of peace and how each person has a responsibility in creating it. As the story goes…

They first introduced (their) song to a group of teenagers selected from their high schools to attend a weeklong retreat in California. The young people were purposefully from different religious, racial, cultural and economic backgrounds, brought…
