I don't know about you, but for me, it's the isolation of the bathroom that works in giving my brain some creative thoughts. It can be while showering or, well, you get the picture. Then it's the bedroom for those early morning thoughts that won't let me sleep. They always seem to haunt me around 3:00 am the witching hour, according to some. I think they're right!

We all want to be successful. To be honest, right now, everyone in the world is successful in their own way, no matter what you did. You could be a janitor, artist, writer, or whatever; you are successful. Just that thought you had this morning before you left the house or when you woke up makes you successful. Keep it up!

So you're out shopping, and you go into one of the big department stores and come out with nothing. It happens more than you know. It isn't that you aren't ready to shop; it's just you haven't used your creativity for shopping. It does take some creativity to go shopping during the holidays, and in some cases, you need to be more creative than ever right now.   

Sorry about missing yesterday; I explained in the podcast what transpired. Anyway, I couldn't let the ween end without talking to you guys one more time. Sorry to intrude on your weekend, but I needed to get these things out of my brain. Thanks for listening.

They say change is good. I tend to agree up to a point. If I make changes that I feel are good for others, I have to know I'll like those changes; otherwise, I won't follow through. In most cases, change is good. It's how we adapt to the changes that count. Listen in for my take on change and life and me.

Yup! I'm full of s*******, no, not that. I'm full of ideas this morning after doing some serious thinking yesterday. Before I forget which I will, here's the link to A Food Above. Subscribe now for the last few weeks to get Holiday recipe ideas, including some of my own favorites. Also, I would like to hear from you regarding the idea for the new podcast About Yesterday! I'm going to work on an idea for the logo today. Let us know. Mark & Patti!

It was time to talk about this topic. It isn't to talk about or answer, but it's something that has been on my mind and the mind of some listeners. Depression is a real thing, and it can alter everything in your life and business. The thing is, there is no easy fix for it. It takes time and work, and it's up to us to make it work. We can get help, but it's still up to us.

Presentations can be tedious, especially if it's about numbers instead of products. We almost always talk numbers, even when about a product or a possible change you're thinking about. But what if we spoke creatively instead. Imagine the outcome? Creativity changes everything. Give it a try. 

Nothing is easy, and when it comes to being creative, especially for me, it definitely isn't as easy as I make it sound. I have ideas and then more ideas on top of those ideas, but with those ideas come questions I need answers for. That's where you come into play. Hit me up at Mark & Patti after hearing what I need on today's podcast.  

How was your weekend? It was pretty creative for Patti and me, and I wanted to share some thoughts with you about being creative differently. Listen in for the details. Also here's the link to the new website. Check it out.
