A Diamond in the Rough – How to Skillfully Write a Trade Book about a Leadership Topic
In 1949, in the Broadway production of “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,” Carol Channing originally released a jazz song called “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend.” Later, Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” was popularized by this same 1949 song sung by Marilyn Monroe in the film “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes”. 1 What…

Beyond Illusion: Seeing Life Clearly
Peace results from retraining your mind to process life as it is, rather than how you think it should be. This truth is particularly relevant for individuals who have experienced complex PTSD (C-PTSD) and relational trauma. For many, life has been filled with pain, betrayal, and brokenness that have left…

No Such Thing as an Overprotective Parent
“Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.” — Proverbs 22:6 NLT “Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching. They are a garland to grace your head and a chain to adorn your neck.”…

Biden’s Aides Were in a “Fog of Delusion”
COMMON SENSE: According to Ron Klain, President Biden’s former Chief-of-Staff, before the debate with Donald Trump, Biden was “fatigued, befuddled and disengaged.” We suspected this, so that isn’t surprising. Despite the claims by the Democrats that Joe was a dynamo of energy, we witnessed his lethargy daily, but that’s not all.…

The Flip Side of Lawfare
COMMON SENSE: Political analysts love to dissect the results of elections. That’s no secret. They tell us how women voted compared to men, how those who are educated voteed compared to the less educated, and numerous other categories. They bifurcate the electorate in numerous ways, but they routinely leave out one variable that I consider…
This Is Why Trump Demands Personal Loyalty
COMMON SENSE: Progressive political commentators, when discussing President-Elect Trump’s cabinet nominations, mention that personal loyalty is the overriding criteria for each selection. When they say this, it’s never in a complementary way. Instead, they consistently connect his behavior with the actions of a dictator. Linking Trump to Hitler, where personal loyalty to the Führer was…
Let Us Rise Up and Build
Organizational change leaders must first create urgency by highlighting risks or opportunities in open and honest cultures (Holmquist, 2021, pp. 111-112). With specific performance improvements and targets, short-term wins build momentum and credibility, increasing success possibilities rather than impending deterioration (Kotter 2012, p. 12; DePree, 2004, p. 111). After early wins, leaders should consolidate advantages…
Kamala’s Missing Voters
COMMON SENSE: At this point, nearly all of the Presidential votes have been tabulated. Trump received 72.5 million, while Kamala received 67.9 million. That’s an impressive victory for Trump, but his total is substantially less than the 74.2 million he received when he lost to Joe Biden in the 2020 election. In Joe’s victory, he…
In The Lord’s Service; Basic Training
Now that you have been born again! Now that the Father has transferred you from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of His dear Son, He has now by His grace, qualified and called you to be a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. But hold up! Before you rise from the altar, run…
Thanking for Tomorrow’s Blessings Today: Cultivating Hope and Healing
In the journey of personal development and spiritual growth, one powerful practice stands out: expressing gratitude in advance for the hopes we wish to see realized. This concept is not only rooted in psychological research but also in spiritual teachings. As Jesus said, “When you pray and ask for something, believe that you have received…
I Was Right about Everything
COMMON SENSE: Yesterday, my prediction was that Trump would win, and it wouldn’t even be close. I prognosticated, “Trump 312 Electors, Harris 227 Electors.” Right now, Trump has 277, which is enough to win the election, but there are still four states that haven’t been called. Trump leads in all four. If he wins them,…
Think Of Us
Bob stared at the letter of resignation on his desk. It had been placed there only minutes ago by one of his team members. Disheartened and sighing deeply, he asked himself, “How many now? How many more?” Bob rose from his chair and picked up the letter. He knew he would receive the same demeaning…
So, Now We Are “Garbage”
COMMON SENSE: I’m not hurt, offended or even surprised that President Biden would refer to us as “garbage,” nor am I interested in an apology from him. Even if he gave one, I doubt it would be genuine. He spoke his mind. Referring to us as garbage is exactly what he thinks. That he does,…
