Motivational Monday…Rising Tides Last week I had the pleasure of a 3-hour wait at my doctor’s office. I calculated that roughly 13% of that time was for a test and consultation with my doctor. This is a busy practice. That day my doctor had an emergency at the hospital and some of the testees

This Week…Thank You For Your Beautiful Music If you’re of a certain age, as I am, you may have spent many evenings sitting (I’m keeping this PG-rated) in a car with your date, listening to Tony Bennett’s music. It sounds so simple, but if you just be yourself, you're different than anyone else.
