What does it mean to Focus?
Focus. Focus (noun) – the state or quality of having or producing a clear visual definition. Focus (verb) – pay particular attention to. Each an ideal definition for me.

Sundays are Simple – the Voice of Truth

Sundays are Simple – Getting back to Basics.
I’m a dreamer, are you? Formulating a plan to allow yourself one day of rest could be as simple as getting back to basics of a good morning routine.

Continuing our Journey – the next 50 days
While on a path of self-improvement we sometimes must reflect and go back in time before we go forward; as a pause of reflection, not regret. Standing on our back deck I have a moment of clarity and realize my blessing and unique circumstance. You see our deck is the deck my grandfather built (or perhaps had built) some 30…
