THE LAST GENERATION (before the internet)

August 23, 2014 by David Gillaspie

The Moment Of Internet Conception. Being the last of anything signals a changing of the guard, but the last generation before the internet? Is this special? It’s not the last Civil War, or WWI, veteran. It’s not the last generation before electric lights. If baby boomers are the last generation before the internet, then we’re […]

PORTLAND, WHERE THE DREAM OF AMERICA STILL LIVES

August 14, 2014 by David Gillaspie

The hit show Portlandia tells America where the dream of the 90’s still lives, but why stop there? Why not the Portland where the dream of the 60’s still floats in the air? Better yet: Portland, where the dream of the 70’s never died. The 60’s work better because it was the first time an […]

TWO GYM HACKS TO STAY ENGAGED IN LOVE AND WORK

July 30, 2014 by David Gillaspie

A gym rat lady brought her son in for a workout. He lasted one visit. His excuse? He didn’t like the layout, the people, and the idea of his mom watching over him. Too many times we boomers start something, then put it down for the same vague reasons. Regarding gym-time, the results are the […]

Imagine, if you will, a humble boomer blogger achieving one of their dreams. From the sounds coming from our aging demographic, we’re all doing super.

BETTER BUSINESS EVOLUTION

July 21, 2014 by David Gillaspie

Every species knows the rules of evolution, or at least abides by them. The fossil record is full of proof, studied or not. Adapt or perish. Do the same rules apply to business? Consider the world economy. Industries didn’t move to China for the clean air and sparkling water. They moved for the favorable labor […]

FINDING BOOMER POWER WITH THE WELLDIGGERS

June 6, 2014 by David Gillaspie

New Boomers And Old Dig In. Welldiggers started in January 2005. Nine years later ring leader and organizer Walt Duddington invited me to speak to a monthly meeting. He gave three open dates.

Is Networking As Important As It Sounds? Yes, It Is. Before you yawn off another self-hyping internet noise maker, consider this: Work used to mean show up, do the job, and go home. Then it became get an education, show up, do the job, and go home. The day gets longer when you start attending […]

NATURE’S BEST: A BLOGGER’S VIEW OF GOOD MANAGEMENT

May 7, 2014 by David Gillaspie

Call It Natural. Call It The Best. Just Call It Good Business. Baby boomers remember natural food back in 1972. It was what’s for dinner at the macrobiotic commune while the rest of us gorged on bags of burgers. Or what the muscle guys ate to show how they developed without going on the juice, […]
