This is a joke that us engineers used to make among ourselves back when I used to work at DuPont. It’s funny as a joke because, obviously, the more you flog somebody, the less likely that their morale will improve!

Well, I am back from the abyss of losing my job, getting two new opportunities a quarter of the world apart and then moving my family cross-country back to Philly – where it all started.

It’s all about the energy. OK, fine, but what is energy and what does that mean? In our universe energy is a potential or capability for bringing about change in our physical experience.

My 3 year old son, Bodhi, loves to drive his tricycle around the cul de sac in front of our house. He is actually getting very fast and he seems to elicit great joy from watching me chase after him when he doesn’t heed my calls to come back. However, while doing this he will [...]

However those of us who are earnest in our work and are focused on our [...]
