Today’s daily email message from tut.com arrived in my Inbox and reading it made me think back to Tuesday, September 17th, the last water adventure for me until next summer (that I know of) – and what an adventure it was! One of life’s most elusive lessons, Joyce, saved for only the wise and peculiar, is that there’s nothing, ever, to be unhappy about. Unless, of course, you lose sight of the big picture, think … Continue reading →
I find myself practicing more and more being in the present moment. I suppose reading The Tao of Now (by Josh Baran) on a daily basis is making its mark on me! In the present moment, there is no fear or worry. I was recently reminded that fear points back to the past and worry points ahead to the future. Well, I surely cannot be in the Now if I’m fearful or worried! And it’s … Continue reading →

In last month’s newsletter, I talked about whether or not you really needed a website, citing only three folks I’d encountered who truly didn’t need a website to promote their business. I did not utter a word about social media. Okay, so let’s talk about that now. There are folks who believe having a Facebook page — and even posting on it regularly — is an all-encompassing online marketing strategy for promoting their business. While … Continue reading →
As I had announced several months ago, I am compiling the 598 posts of my spiritual blog “You, Me, and Spirit” into a 2-volume eBook. Despite the blog being written ten years ago –in essence, another lifetime– the fact that it is focused on Spirit makes such details minor because Spirit is timeless. Keeping my commitment to edit at least one blog post per day, the process is going well and I am on track. … Continue reading →

I attended WordCamp Phoenix 2019 earlier this month, and as expected, it was beneficial. This year was its 10-year reunion, and the multi-day tech conference was open to all, beginners through experts. It covered WordPress design, development, marketing, e-commerce, and business. One of the talks I attended helped me gain a better appreciation and understanding of the new Gutenberg editor, a big, and controversial change when it went live with the December 2018 WordPress update. … Continue reading →
I have exciting news which I want to share with you, not just because of my enthusiasm, but also to stay accountable!

I named the blog “You, Me, and Spirit.” During those years, I was married, I lived in the environs of the city of … Continue reading →
If you’re an author or a speaker, you need a one-sheet. What’s a one-sheet? The concept originated in the entertainment industry. It is a single-page document designed to provide a burst of information about a product for the purpose of sales or advertising. Your speech could be the product… Maybe it’s your book… It could be your entire organization… Or, maybe your event. A one-sheet is sort of like a brochure on steroids. You get … Continue reading →
