Finding the perfect level on a see-saw. Stacking blocks to make a tower even TALLER. Placing one foot, heel to toe, in front of the other on a narrow ledge. Carving down a slope on a pair of skis. All provide opportunities to practice, and sometimes enjoy, balance. But when you imagine spending your entire dayContinue reading “Stop Trying to Balance it All and Start Finding a Rhythm”

When it comes to your life, are you willing to ask the most important questions?  Rabbi Akiba ben Joseph is known in the Jewish Talmud as “Chief of the Sages” for his incisive wisdom. One afternoon he left his cottage to go into the village for some supplies. After finishing his errands, he accidentally took the wrongContinue reading “The 3 Questions That Get to the Essence of Life”

By now some of you have been subjected to the “forced family fun” that is a company or organization retreat. For those that haven’t, allow me to explain. You and your coworkers head to a retreat center in the woods and engage in a litany of team-building exercises, many of which require awkward looking helmets andContinue reading “Of Tightropes & Canvases.

F A T H O M || T R I B E I ONCE ran a marathon. It was a bucket list goal, unlike any of my prior athletic pursuits. In my former sports life, running was always a necessary means to an end. You have to run the bases to score a run. YouContinue reading “Why Does it Have to be so Difficult? The Challenge of Vocation”

Life can often give us a sense of feeling stuck. We know what we want, but can’t seem to make any progress. We can often find ourselves playing “the waiting game” (Whomever coined such a phrase clearly doesn’t like games. Or, perhaps, never played one.). We wait for the career we’ve dreamed of . .Continue reading “Playing the Waiting Game: Cultivating Patience”

Any time we turn the page on a new year, our thoughts turn to anticipation, curiosity, and an evaluation of our place in life.
