May 18th 2018:Living a Life of Success and Significance - Mark McAuliffe
Rick will be interviewing Mark McAuliffe discussing Living a Life of Success and Significance, The difference between getting there by default and falling or living by design, BEING DOING and HAVING. Many people believe if they work hard enough, long enough they will have what they want and when they do they will then BE somebody in life. Others seem to have it made almost magically. They have a wonderful life, family, income, toys, trips, money it is the lifestyle of the rich and famous or even the millionaire next door. They are happy in both sides of their lives, personally and professio

Belief....

One of the most powerful weapons in the battle for growth is belief.  Belief that you can make a difference.  Belief in the success of what you are doing.  Belief in you and the process that you are following.  Belief in the team that you have.  Belief compounds and builds momentum.  The greatest way to derail an effort is to show that you do not believe it will succeed.  John Maxwell states:

Belief encourages positive anticipation....

Anticipation creates intention....

Intention crystallizes focus....

Focus finds opportunity....

Opportunity calls for action....

Action stirs up passion....

Passion encourages belief....

Believing in your vision and your dream will create the necessary focus, opportunity, action, and passion required to carry it out.  At every step of the way, our brains are wired to introduce risk and doubt.  Belief is the greatest champion to outwit these naysayers and push through.  If you followed my previous post about Sisyphus and my constant challenge to push the rock up the mountain, then you know that belief is the power behind WANT and WILL.  Doubt leaves people wanting and yearning for their dreams while belief pushes people into willing their dreams into existence.

Do you believe in you?  Do you believe in where you are going?  Do you believe in the goals of the organization that you follow?  Do you believe that what you are doing today is plotting the path for where you want to be in the future?  It all starts with belief.

No Day But Today,

May 11th 2018:Project Management Has to Change - Colin Ellis
Rick will interview Colin Ellis to talk about why project management has to change. It has to embrace all that is new and that works and discard all that is old and broken. It needs to challenge the current doctrines, structures, processes and people that are holding it back. What’s required is something that builds on what works well whilst establishing a different mindset and skill set that’s fit for the future of work. Delivery people that role model emotional maturity, build organisational agility and continually improve the way things are delivered to ensure that the organisation consist

The Two Wolves....

I get several questions around the logo for my company.  There are two main stories.  One is personal, the other stems from an old story that is dear to my heart.  First the story:

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

He said, 'My son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all.

One is Evil.

It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, ego and superiority.

The other is Good.

It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, truth, benevolence, empathy, generosity, compassion and faith.

The grandson thought about this for a minute and then asked his grandfather:

'Which wolf wins?'

 The old Cherokee simply replied, 'The one you feed.'

I love that story.  It reminds me to focus on the positive and reward the good work done.  The second reason for my logo is a personal shout out of pride to my family.  I am Irish and Italian.  I lean more to my Italian side.  The wolf in my logo is modeled after La Lupa, the mythical she wolf that nursed Romulus and Remus back to health.  In many of the pictures of her, you will see the twins.  In the logo, we removed the twins and put R2 underneath it to signify my children. Ramsey and Remo.  Finally, the wolf has green eyes to signify my wife.  So I am the wolf protecting my children and my wife is looking after us.  That is the story!
