[September 6, 2023] It’s hard to make this up. Social media content creator Pearl Davis has been giving us some great ideas about how women function from a woman’s point of view. She is interesting and funny and has also taken a lot of heat from feminists who think she is anti-woman. I disagree with the anti-woman description… Read More »
[September 5, 2023] I’m a fan of movie critic Scotsman Will Jordan, aka The Critical Drinker. I like how he slams modern films because they are written by immature, narcissistic, selfish, woke man-children. Last year, I wrote about one of his videos explaining why modern movies suck (link here), and it was very popular. Today, I’m highlighting something… Read More »
[September 4, 2023] I was very young and did not witness the brave act of one lone man who stood up against the powerful and very dangerous Ku Klux Klan. But the whole town knew, for some were witnesses when the local Marshal blocked the KKK from entering this rural town. It was shortly before I was born,… Read More »
[September 3, 2023] I started this Blog precisely 10 years ago, shortly after receiving notice from the General Officer Management Office (GOMO) that I would be retiring from the U.S. Army the following May of 2014. Like everybody at senior rank, I thought I had many more years in me. I was indeed popular among Soldiers, I had… Read More »
[September 3, 2023] My friend, Eddie, asked me to write about forgiveness two weeks ago. Eddie is a very religious man, and I could have taken that route to discuss the act of forgiveness, but I wanted to look back in time and take another look at this essential idea. I plan to write about forgiveness again as… Read More »
[September 2, 2023] By now, most of you will have heard of the “hero” kid who would not back down when his teacher and school administrators ordered him to remove a Gadsden Flag patch from his bookbag. They wrongly claimed the Gadsden Flag was associated with slavery. The kid is a hero for his actions. This kid, 12-year-old… Read More »
[September 1, 2023] Nick Freitas has some common sense commentary on child predators and is brutally clear that the best way to protect children from them is with strong, capable, dangerous fathers. I like a recent YouTube video (5:27 minutes, link here) where he talks about this. Last month, I wrote about child predator Jack Reynolds, advising on… Read More »
[August 31, 2023] When I began this leadership blog almost ten years ago, I had a few friends write an occasional column. Sadako Red, a pen name, became more popular because of his wit and penchant for getting into sticky situations and his nimble ability to extract himself from the most uncomfortable and dangerous situations. And no one… Read More »
[August 30, 2023] Below is a darn good book worth reading. The core message is that any leader or person who wants a good life should focus on teamwork as their core principle. Whether it is at work, home, church, volunteer organization, or a simple gathering of friends, teamwork makes everyone’s lives better. This book review is one… Read More »
[August 29, 2023] Much has been written (and will be written) about America’s youngest adult generation. Subjects discussing our youth are many, for good and for bad, but something is going overlooked. We are beginning to notice that they reject mentorship from leaders.1 Mentorship is, of course, the most effective and efficient way to improve life and leadership… Read More »
