DECISION MAKING BEHIND THE CURTAIN

SPENDING TIME THE RIGHT WAY

September 8, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Are you spending time the way you’d like? Time is funny like that, so I made an equation of happiness. If you’re good with things 51% of the time, not so good 49% of the time, you’re on the right track. Unless you’re a parent.

YOU’VE BEEN EMASCULATED? HOW?

September 10, 2015 by David Gillaspie
