I’ve been guilty over many past years of sacrificing precious time with loved ones to get the next deal done, or put out the next fire, etc.

I have now discovered the blessing of sabbatical time, following the birth of my first grandchild, and it’s been a game changer for my perspective. I’m now formulating how the next professional chapter will look, factoring in quality of life (in all its meaning) as a top priority.

Wish I came up for air long enough to figure this out 20 years ago!! But alas, better late than never!

Enjoy your time off, Rex!

I am available to carry your luggage or drive. I will not consider it a job, but rather an introduction to new ideas and worlds

Timely. The cold truth in that everyone is dispensable. We often learn this the hard way. As I’ve aged, I’ve come to realize that time is my asset to control the way I choose. As a manager, I insist my peeps take time off.
