Lead with your heart, not your head.

Lead with your heart, not your head. http://youtu.be/f5GStn9Ktgk The next time someone tells you to lead with your head and not your heart, don’t listen. My purpose on this planet has never been, nor will it ever be, to follow. I am a leader by nature and have always done so through my heart. Why?

Parenting-The Fish Rots From The Head Down

When it comes to parenting, your kids learn behaviors from you. Parenting Is there a right and wrong here? When it comes to being a parent, I am no expert, but I will say this all has to do with communication. Having no children of my own and writing this article may cause some rough seas for this fish. That’s ok, I am fine with that, and I’ll just swim sideways and make my way back to shore. With that said, I can say I have been an expert at being a kid once (and still am at [...]
