The IniGO Minute: "I, Too, The Audience" #FingerPrint
Yesterday at 9:00 AM

I had mentioned early on that self help books give the impression that they have things all figured out. But yet, even the best authors struggle with the incorporation of the advice they give their own audience. I myself as well am part of the audience of which I address. I, too, mess up from time to time and need your encouragement to stay on the right path.

Imagine if you woke up, got out of bed, and the ONE THING you had to do today would be to make someone's day. What would you do? Or imagine if you were judged not be the house, car, money...but rather who you inspired...

The IniGO Minute: "Compromise (Pt 2)"
04/17/2026

In circling back on our nation's issues, I wanted to revisit the idea of compromise. Maybe it's naive of me, but the level of extremity with our nation's issues can be very frustrating. Is it too much to ask to come together and find some common ground?

The IniGO Minute: "Compromise (Pt 1)"
04/15/2026

 I thought this might be a good opportunity to revisit the concept of "Compromise".  Everywhere we turn, it seems that no one is happy unless there's something to complain about...

It was mentioned to me a few weeks ago that the most powerful people in the government are the swing votes. These seem to be the ones that are willing to work with both sides of the aisle.

The IniGO Minute: "In The Grand Scheme of Things"
04/13/2026

Some good advice I have received in the past is "Will this really matter a year from now?" Often times, we get ourselves worked up over almost nothing. Here's a reminder to take a deep breath and not let the moment overwhelm you.

The IniGO Minute: "The New Guy" #YourLegacy
04/10/2026

The IniGO Minute: "Feelin' Elite"
04/06/2026

Coach PJ Fleck, the head football coach at The University of Minnesota, is one of my inspirations. He uses a concept called "Being Elite" that I can each of us can relate to - whether we believe it or not.

The IniGO Minute: "The Hansel Enmanuel Story" #CARDS #MarchMadness
03/16/2026

It is college basketball season so I figure it's a good reset to check in on Hansel Enmanuel's career. Currently, he is seeing playing time at Austin Peay. 

Here is one of his highlight reels:HANSEL EMMANUEL BEST MOMENTS!! One-Armed Hooper Will GO CRAZY at Northwestern State! 

He had also secured some NIL deals in the process.

The IniGO Minute: "Accountability"
03/13/2026

It's all too easy to blame someone or something when things don't go the way as you planned. However, taking this approach of honest accountability has worked for me many times with work and with family. I hope my experiences can help you too.

The IniGO Minute: "Understand The Why"
03/09/2026

With all the incidents of gun violence that have occurred in our country recently, there is an underlying layer that is being ignored. In all the heated debates after the fact, there is a lack of any effort to understand why these events are occurring.

The IniGO Minute: "Lost In Translation"
03/04/2026

Have you ever heard the same song in multiple languages? Often times, the translation does not match up word for word. 

Same goes for feedback that one might get from others...(no, not in multiple languages)...a slight pause may get one to see what was truly being communicated.

The IniGO Minute: "Look Around" #Inspire!
02/27/2026

There are a lot of great speakers out there...many encouraging us to make a change for the better. 

For those that encourage us to focus towards the happiness of others, should the focus of the talk be the speaker giving it? The message?

The IniGO Minute: "The Slight Edge" Book Review
02/08/2026

Good Morning!

A book I read back in 2019/2020 changed my life, leading me on the path to finally get this project started. "The Slight Edge" by Jeff Olson discussed the differences between successful people and unsuccessful people. Easier than you think!

The IniGO Minute: "The Great American Melting Pot"
02/05/2026

If you're as old as I am growing up in the 1980s, you might remember the short films of "Schoolhouse Rock". 

This one - "The Great American Melting Pot" was one of my favorites. Schoolhouse Rock - ''The Great American Melting Pot'' - YouTube

It seems we have gotten away from this unified mantra. Can't we allow all who seek US Citizenry the chance at the American dream?

We are all immigrants...

02/03/2026

My wife and daughter have a snow day today. This inspired me to bring this reflection back around. 

I also picked up a good book with this theme: "Slowing Down To The Speed of Joy" by Matthew Kelly. Slowing Down to the Speed of Joy: The Simple Art of Taking Back Your Life: Matthew Kelly: 9781635825640: Amazon.com: Books

I wonder if something is being hinted at us here...
