nashville tn: Winning Spirit - 01/27/12 05:43 AM
I am proud to say that I have coached my sons teams every season of any kind of ball in their lives. It is one of my most meaningful endeavors. While preparing for this year's baseball season, I remembered something from last season that really made me feel good about my son and proved to be a great teaching moment for me and my son.
Our games have 6 innings. It was the bottom of the 6th of the league championship game. We were last at bat and down by 2 runs. My son had been in a batting slump for … (0 comments)

nashville tn: Are you a dreamer? - 01/13/12 03:45 AM
My mind has been very active the last few days in thought about the new year. A new year is one of the great gifts God gives us. It is a chance to wipe the slate clean and set out about the business of doing what we set out to do.
My thoughts have been fueled by reading Dave Ramsey's "EntreLeadership" and identified strongly with some points he makes:To be a dreamer is a great thing but is a negative without action. The next step of dreaming is having vision. Having vision is to incorporate actions with your dreams. He had a … (0 comments)

nashville tn: Perspective - 10/26/11 05:17 AM
I had a recent conversation that really defined how differently people feel and think about things. Because we were brought up differently and taught to value different things, we tend to perceive things differently. After all perception is reality... right?!
I was told a story about a conversation between 2 ladies on a road trip. In this closed enviornment, it is hard to just walk away, so there is a captive audience. My friend told me that she carried on with a younger lady that continually related everything to her husband. She would say "oh, Bob always says...", Bob and I … (0 comments)

nashville tn: BoomTown Tennessee! - 09/30/11 05:37 AM
Ever wonder why you hear constant negative on the news yet you don't quite see it in your own community? I have and believe others would like some thought on it. Here in Middle Tennessee, we haven't been as negatively effected as other markets have. We enjoy a good quality of life, good weather, stable job growth, affordable housing, and no state income tax. These are just a few of the factors that make Middle TN a desierable commodity.

nashville tn: Coaching - 09/16/11 03:41 AM
The more I coach my children's youth teams, the more I discover that life is simply coaching different types of people in all kinds of situations. You don't have to have a whistle around your neck and clipboard in hand to assume the role of a coach.
Another truth to understand about coaching is that coaching principles and concepts are no different when coaching a sales team than they are when coaching a ball team. You always start with the most simple, foundational parts of what you are teaching and build off that. You daily focus on improving on the area(s) deficiencies … (0 comments)

nashville tn: Effectuate Change! - 07/25/11 08:12 AM
As a company owner, my mind takes me to thoughts of growth and ways to increase our market share. In doing so, I am always reminded that a leaders job is to always be a catalyst for change. In doing so, we create energy, synergy, attention, and results. It's hard to be complacent if your mind and body are moving!
In my blog, I write to those who are looking for a career change, a change in attitude, a company change and the like. As I write, I think to myself... I wonder how much leadership happens in other companies? How much time do … (0 comments)
