I have a busy weekend prepared. Tonight (and tomorrow night), I will be watching my beloved Phillies- it’s the last weekend of playing at home this season. Sunday morning, I will enjoy breakfast with my daughter, son-in-law, and grandson. Then, I will hightail it to Brooklyn, to spend Rosh Hashana with my son and his wife.

Habit Forming?
Besides the party, what else do you have planned?
Tomorrow is the first day of the secular new year of 2020. A whole new decade. Which means you probably have to reassess all those New Year’s Resolutions you’ve been running through in your mind. (I make my personal resolutions in September/October, when the Jewish New Year rolls around. And, my corporate KPI [key performance indicators] are evaluated three or four times a year to make sure we’re measuring (and achieving) the right things.)

Resolution Check-in
How are your resolutions coming?

Happy New Year!
Today is the first day of the secular new year of 2016. Which means you probably are making sure you keep your New Year’s Resolutions. (I make my personal resolutions in September/October, when the Jewish New Year rolls around. My corporate KPI [key performance indicators] are evaluated three or four times a year to make sure we’re measuring the right things.)
Before tonight’s ciock strikes 12…
It’s New Year’s Eve. I know, you are rushing around, trying to get everything done so you can go out and party tonight. But, here’s something else you shouldn’t forget. Make your plan for 2015. You deserve it. No… you need it!
29 Days and still counting
It’s the next to last day of Elul. As I wrote on the first day, when the period of self-assessment begins, we are 30 days into the 40 day period of determining how we can make our lives- and the lives of others- better. (You can also search for Elul in the index to the left and see more of my thoughts on this “resolution-making” period.)
