Reading Time: 5 minutesI’ve managed to find a brief moment during this busy time to collect my thoughts and reflect on all of the entrepreneurial activities of which I’ve been a part recently.

Reading Time: 4 minutesTaxes have been filed, snowblower put away, and the sounds of farm equipment can be heard outside the opened window of my home office. These are the signs that spring is finally here! The other sign of spring, at least for me, is that I’ve been constantly moving from one event to another, much of … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 2 minutesNapoleon Hill Think and Grow Rich ISBN: 978-1-50308-103-1 James Whittaker Think and Grow Rich: The Legacy ISBN: 978-1-64095-018-4 I decided to make this review a two-for-one for a couple of reasons.

Reading Time: 5 minutesHave we finally made it? According to the calendar, spring is finally here. I’m holding my breath, waiting for one more nasty winter storm to finish out the harshest winter that we’ve had in a few years.

Over the last few years, more time has been spent launching … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 11 minutesThis has been the winter that just keeps on giving. If we’re not digging out from six new inches of snow every few days, or huddled together for warmth during the polar vortex, we’re getting pelted with sleet and freezing rain during an icy thunderstorm. I’ve lost track of the number of days where we’ve … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 4 minutesI love my kids. I really do. However, six snow days in two weeks can really test your resolve as a parent.

Reading Time: 8 minutesJust as much as I like looking back over the year to see what I’ve accomplished and where I’ve gone, I really enjoy planning ahead for the coming year. 2019 is going to be an incredibly busy year, with the launch of Cider Finder, the return of Startup Weekend Iowa City, and several different entrepreneurial … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 9 minutesWant to compare where I am now versus where I was one year ago? Check out 2017’s Year in Review.

Reading Time: 6 minutesThe end of the year is routinely a whirlwind of activity. Even with an early Thanksgiving, the five and a half weeks at the end of the year seems to go by in a flash.
