The first interview I did for my podcast was with Zetti. Although I had been interviewed hundreds of times, I had never interviewed anyone else. She made my job easy because she openly and transparently shared her life story. Hollywood couldn’t script a better story. Click on the link to listen. You will not be disappointed…
Experts…
Have you noticed how people become “experts” in whatever the divisiveness of the day is? One day we have experts in the constitution, followed by the epidemiologists, and then the same people become military strategists. Opinions are merely opinions, not facts. Seek truth, nothing more…
Untouchable…
Always tell the truth, and you won’t have to remember what you said to anyone. People who lie are living with chaotic minds…
Change. Really?
Fifty years ago, the band Ten Years After released a song titled “I’d Love to Change The World.” In the lyrics, they talk of noble ideas such as feed the poor, stop war, and eliminate pollution. Yet, in the chorus the lyricist wrote, “I’d love to change the world, but I don’t know what to do.”

Greed…
In the movie, “Wall Street,” the main character told us that “greed is good.” By definition, greed means a selfish desire for wealth and power. There is nothing wrong with wealth and power until you throw selfishness into the mix. Keep your motives true and noble, and should you start feeling selfish, give away what you have accumulated.
