Inspiring Life, Learning, and Transformational Leadership
We often miss the beauty of life that is right in front of us because we are easily distracted. We don’t mean for it to happen—it just does. Life gets noisy, the phone lights up, notifications buzz, and before we know it, our attention is scattered across a dozen places at once, and we’re not …

Niagara Falls Lake Joseph “Our adversary the devil majors in three things: noise, hurry, and crowds.”—Richard Foster, Celebration of Discipline When we travel, we usually talk about what we see—breathtaking sights and views that linger in our minds like photographs.
