As I sat down to write this week’s newsletter, I looked at my calendar to see who I met with and what we talked about. As is usually the case, a common theme emerged: people. On Monday, I talked with a client about how well one of his managers is doing, and yet how …
As you are reading this, the Patriots are either planning a parade in the streets of Boston to celebrate their record-setting seventh Super Bowl or fans—like me—are licking their wounds after a loss to the Seattle Seahawks. I’m sitting down to write this just days after the Patriots won their 12th AFC Championship. …
Beginnings, Endings, and the Benefits of Discomfort The first 19 (that’s when I am writing this) days of 2026 have been…interesting. I started the year with an assistant and someone working to help create processes and systems for my practice as well as for some of my clients. I had a job offer out to […]
Some of you may recall that my grandfather, Pap, passed away on December 13, 2020 of COVID. It was a heartwrenching “see you later” done over FaceTime—even with his and our certain hope in the power of Jesus’ resurrection.

“Ghostbusters!” Let’s face it, you were already thinking about it. You can thank me later for putting the theme song from that enduring movie series in your head. This has become a topic that I have been discussing increasingly with my clients. Let’s face it, not everyone’s opinion is of equal value. Entrepreneurs who are […]
Many of you are aware of my motorsports background. My Dad was a racer at Seekonk Speedway when I was really young. We attended events as a family at that track after he stopped racing. It’s where I promoted my first races with my matchbox cars on their concrete seats on the backstretch. Nearly twenty […]
Each month I attend a cigar networking event. One of the things that I love about it (aside from the fact that we are doing business while we are smoking) is that there is a mastermind session which invites business owners to share a particular challenge to the collective wisdom of the room. Recently, one […]
