As the day turns to dark, we’re reminded of the gift of a fresh start! The sunset is a reminder of what we did and where we are going. It is an opportunity to learn from the past for the promise of a better future.

On The Move
The M Network motto is, “We can do anything. We choose to do good.” Maybe it should be changed to: “We can do anything from anywhere and we choose to do good.” Here’s evidence that we can do anything from anywhere
Handwritten Notes
When my son was making a ridiculously long list of guests he wanted to have come to his birthday party, I said to him, “Remember for every guest that brings you a gift, you will need to write a thank you note.” I think I also caught an eye-roll in there, as well, but I was serious. He paused long enough to weigh the work of writing notes against the excitement of getting gifts.
About A Blog: Something To POST
I embarked on my journey, About A Blog. The first thing that came to mind is to run to my handy Webster’s Dictionary for the definition – well, why not? It’s all about the research. Minor detail, the word blog certainly is not in my version of the dictionary. Next best resource, THE GOOGLE.
Liberation Of An Ego Driven Designer
When I was a little kid – around 5 or so – I drew a picture. I had drawn many pictures and this one was really no different.

It Could Still Be The Most Wonderful Time of the Year (with my cookie recipe!)
It’s no secret to all my friends and family that Christmas is my favorite time of the year. I cannot wait until the week leading up to Thanksgiving, as that is when I pull out all the Christmas decorations and transform my house into a winter wonderland.
Oprah’s Shining Moment Provides Takeaways For Great Presentations
I’m not one to get overly emotional about what most celebrities have to say, but Oprah’s acceptance speech at the Golden Globes really did move me. And regardless of your position on the #metoo movement, it’s hard not to admit that her connection with the audience was powerful.
My Favorite M Network TV Spot: When Living “Multiculturally” Pays Off
If you aren’t from Miami – or at least lived here for 20 years – it’s hard to explain how funny and on the mark this commercial is. Our client LOVED it. His clients saw it and they LOVED it. They came to see him, talk to him, laugh about the spot, and buy cars.
