There is Something You Must Do:

    What Have You Done?   Something You Must Do:



When you apologize to someone for mistreating them, abusing your power instead of sharing and exchanging power in your relationship with them, or bringing them emotional harm, you must change your offensive behavior immediately and never return to it. Never.

You must change. You must ask yourself where it is that you learned that the behavior was okay. Evaluate how much of that experience of learning is a part of your past and present day.

You must evaluate yourself with love and dedication to changing your beliefs, your way of living and loving and your way of being for the better. Some offenses are irreparable, but when you get the chance to make something right you must.

Ask for forgiveness and understand that you may not deserve it but by asking for it you give the other person the opportunity to regain some power lost by their association with you.

It serves as part of the apology too. Yes apologies are twofold. Admitting to your offenses demonstrates real care, respect and compassion.

This is the only way to authenticate an apology. What you do speaks loudly. What you say is only heard. There is nothing but the ego that would allow you to not apologize. No  mental illness, no addiction, no distance.  Apologize!

People listen when you actually do something better. It is honorable. Honor is everything.

LETTING GO....

  L-E-T-T-I-N-G    G-O You have seen these words before..yes? Very simply written in nine letters. “L e tting  go .” Why does it make you uncomfortable?  It is simply an action that you as a human being experience every single day, just by physically and chemically existing.  It is an action that occurs when you have complete trust in your intuition ; that heaven sent voice inside of you. You know the one you may not always agree with, but the angels are so fond of you ..they send it into your ears, head, heart , and sometimes your eyes? If you are reading this your eyes open and they shut very quickly ..it is called "blinking" but in fact it is letting go and it happens very quickly. As we blink old light goes away and we allow new light to come in …seeing the next moment. As you turned on your computer or device you may have pressed a button, touched the screen, flipped a switch. As you clicked on your mouse, stroked and released keys on the k...

Show some respect. He is not your companion. He is your Commander -In - Chief.

The blatant and horrid disrespect of our Nation's President started long before the State of the Union address where he was called a " liar"  and continues with  even worse name calling and racial attacks. Our President may be referred to as the following:  " Mr. President", "The Honorable Barack Obama", "His Excellency,  Barack Obama", and of course President Obama.  Nothing less is acceptable. Even referencing him by first name alone (as many people do) is out of line unless you are First Lady Michelle Obama. While I think we are a global family, I also think these ongoing episodes do much to  further segregate America and give it the image of our country as a place of disgrace, disuntity, and hate. Imagine trying to explain it to a 5 year old who followed the campaign and elections with her family and proudly declared that " Our President is Barack Obama and Ms. Michelle looks like my Nana." (*my heart breaks for ...

Ask and it is answered: Companies and Social Networks - April 2009

Should a company build it's own social network or should it just join the ones out there that already exist? I think many companies will want to build their own social networks in order to moderate, control, dictate , and ultimately impact the branding message in favor of the organization. When you decide to host a dinner party, your guests are typically going to eat some of what you have decided to serve. It's like that when a company builds their own social network. PR and Marketing end up being in full play. Should they doe this? Absolutely. NING, Linkedin, and even A SMALL WORLD allow for this type of action. However, as much as a company may try ..it is truly difficult to exist in a bubble and the newer platforms ,i.e. Twitter seem to make it less likely as people choose to lend their ears or not. Who doesn't want the data and qualitative feedback of the consumers that manifest the cult at their disposal?. Companies dependent on wide scale and diverse consumer demog...
