Have You Heard of VidAngel?

  The other night our family snuggled in for a chance to watch something fun on NETFLIX. As we scrolled through the options, our kids had seen a majority of the limited “Family Movies” section, even multiple times, so we went in search of something new and fun to watch together. After scrolling and previewing our options for nearly 30 minutes we came to the realization that the few good movies we’d already seen, others were too much cartoon based and uninteresting, and all the rest, meaning 99/100 movies, were truly inappropriate for our kids to see. So we went to normal TV programming. And were appalled by what we saw there. As we flipped through the channels we saw 4 people murdered, some explosions, a very racy intimacy scene, language that was too harsh for young ears, and our choices were relegated to watching the “Who Done It” murder crime scene investigation, a Seinfeld episode the kids didn’t understand, or the Spanish Channel with scantily clad women in a fight.  3 minutes of channel surfing. Disappointed, we decided to turn the TV off to go do something else. Thus the reason for VidAngel. You’ve probably heard of them.  They,

The Promise of Compliments

How often do you give others a compliment? There is no quicker way to engage someone, a complete stranger, and gain a fast friend, than to offer a sincere compliment.

Happy Mothers Day

Dear Mother ~ You gave birth to me.  Loved me before anyone else.  Know me from inside.  I am a part of you.  Thank you for life. Thank you for late nights, sleepily feeding and caring for me, school projects and mending my broken heart. Thank you for mentoring when they said I was different and showing me it was ok.  When they said I was “ugly and had a big mouth”, how you assured me I wasn’t ugly….but had a big mouth… that I could use to smile, spread joy, and sing. The memories of you bring tears of gratitude, your sacrifice, your listening ear, your wisdom and understanding.  All I ever wanted was to find someone with your light who might become the mother of my children.  Thank you for guiding me to become the man who could win the next Mother.     Dear Mother of My Children ~ You are my light, my inspiration, my muse.  My favorite person, my best friend, my companion for eternity.  Your magnificence in exercising your divine gifts and bringing our sacred children to earth took me from onlooker of existence to fully immersed in the circle of life.  Thank you

Gotta Hand it to United

A few weeks ago I posted a blog called, “The Promise United Never Made”. Wow did that stir up some strong feelings from the opposers, critics, and posers out there!  Haha. My whole point was simply that United Airlines only had it as a GOAL to make the customer experience be positive, that they never made any kind of PROMISE to us. Many people agreed with my assessment and the change in language, and how that shifts the strength of power in our words. And then others showed up shouting how promises can’t be guaranteed, it depends on the circumstance, as well as how airlines have every right to do what they did. I get it, but I don’t agree. And apparently United took a long hard look at their Mission Statement, their Corporate Culture, the way they have trained Employees for unfortunate situations as such, and…. After a great deal of being blasted by the media, of not initially owning up to the mistake, of losing hundreds of millions in bad publicity, and having a CEO who was trying to save face…. Finally came up with a GREAT email they sent out to all the world and customers, which was

The Promise of Congruence On & Off Stage

  When I was a kid I met my hero, a basketball player who is in the Hall of Fame now, and at the time was the epitome of all I wanted to be in life. I collected his jerseys, wore the same brand shoes as him (before that was a thing), and collected every basketball card ever made about him. The time came to meet my hero.  He was there to sign our memorabilia. I went up to him, asked if he would be willing to sign my stuff… And he refused. He said that he was under contract not to sign anything I had with me and all he could sign was a little red ball that looked pathetic. He signed it, handed it to me, and I was brushed aside. Devastated, I continued to look up to him, but not with the same luster I imagined would exist in meeting my hero.   Consistency meets Congruence on and off stage is keeping the Promise to your Audience. As a kid I was expecting this star basketball player to be as cool, amazing, and nice off stage as he seemed on it. But that wasn’t the case. It
