What are your dreams?
Ever had a dream? Have you ever thought about something really big that you want to pursue? Some people may laugh at some of the dreams you have. You don’t have to worry though. If your dreams seem crazy to some, then you are dreaming BIG. Your dreams should be so big and crazy that they excite ...
What if I've only got 5 minutes?
Adam Grant would say, that’s more than enough. I was introduced to Adam Grant’s book, Give and Take, last summer by our National Sales Manager, and I read it quite quickly on my back deck one summer weekend. Grant’s a renowned professor at Wharton and his book challenges the concern many ...

A new year is synonymous with New Year's resolutions, all those things in our lives that we want to improve upon or change. I'm passionate about growth and believe strongly in setting new goals. However, I think too often, we reflect back way too easily on what didn't happen, where we fell ...

I’m Grateful for the lessons Vector Marketing has taught me!
While I attempt to practice gratitude on a daily basis, it’s always great to celebrate Thanksgiving, because gratitude is brought right to the forefront. Just a couple short years ago, Gallup issued a survey that showed that 71% of workers are “not engaged” or “actively disengaged” from their ...
What I'm most thankful for...
Thanksgiving is my favourite time of the year. At this time family and friends gather to enjoy each other's company, the changing colours of the leaves, the musky smell of the fresh fall air, sweet pumpkin candles, and apple pies baking in the oven. However, thankfulness is an attribute I daily ...
What I learned from Oprah…the power of Connection!
I had the opportunity to go to Washington, DC and take part in a weekend with Oprah for her “The Life You Want” tour. There are certain people whose presence you just feel, when you know you’re in special company, and that was certainly true with her. While I was fortunate to have really good ...
