Crossing the Bridges: Planning and Doing

Sometimes I am far better at the planning than I am at the actual doing. “Don’t plan the plan if you can’t follow through.”  – Dr. Horrible. The thing about plans is that they are nothing but words.  Without action they are nothing but ideas.  I can plan until I am blue in the face, but unless I take action I have nothing but ideas here. This is why I began to take New Year’s Actions, rather than resolutions.  What

Crossing the Bridges: Knowing the Path vs Walking the Path

Frequently I have claimed to suffer from ADOS.  ADOS = Attention Deficit…Oooooooooh, Shiny! (I do not claim this phrase as my own, someone else I know put it out there, not me – but I use it rather a lot). This is not so much a medical disorder, as it is an inability to focus or keep one’s eyes on the prize or to get pulled in a million directions or… Be right back.  Something else has my attention at

Crossing the Bridges: Of Best Laid Plans

We’re all familiar, I think, with the phrase, “I love it when a plan comes together!” Conversely, though, nobody is fond of when the plan falls apart.

Crossing the Bridges: The Illusion of Time

Where does the time go when it’s not around here? Ever feel like you are always chasing time?  Like no matter what you do, there is seldom enough or it runs out or expires or what-have-you?

Crossing the Bridges: Self Promotion vs Narcissism

There is a fine line between narcissism and self-promotion. The former is when absolutely everything is all about YOU, and in no way beneficial to anyone else.  A narcissist practically screams, “Look at me! LOOK AT ME!  See the things I am doing?  Pay attention to me!” The latter is somewhat about you, but it is also about sharing.  There is some benefit for other people.  A self-promoter says, “Hey, I did this thing.  Please take a look at it.

Seeker – Kindle Countdown Sale

Books make excellent gifts! Even eBooks! Today (Friday 12/12) through Sunday (12/14), Seeker – The Source Chronicles I, is on sale for Kindle for just $.99. I thought a holiday promotional sale was a good idea. There is an element of Seeker I have not written about before – and that’s the human element. The world of t’Thera may be a fantasy world, but even the sorcerous are human. Like the people we all know, these humans are flawed. Perfectly
