ACADEMIC AND BUSINESS WRITING TIPS

Las Vegas, NV – May 2019

Whenever I hear, ‘Tis the season to be jolly,  I tend to chuckle–but not for the reasons you might suspect.  I chuckle at the irony.  We SHOULD be jolly and festive and all the ideal Hallmark type feelings for the holidays.  Often times we are not. We seem to have one foot on a banana peel and slipping fast.  This time of year seems more akin to chaos theory than festive and jolly.

So–along comes Seth Godin and in his amazing wit, he reduces chaos down to one word: choice.  We can choose to be irritated.  We can choose to slip on that banana peel and succumb to chaos, or we can say no and make another choice.  Easy?  Nope.   A better path forward.  Seems to be.

The real question is: What do you think? 

Something for us to think about. Our attitude is our choice. What choices did you make today?
