Electronics: Thinking Outside the Black Plastic Box

May 12, 2009

Ok, I must kvetch for a moment….  Why is it that electronics are mostly design carbon copies?  Why must they mostly be black and dark?  (Other than that is what sells.)

Organization Is A State of Mind

April 8, 2009

Have you ever felt like you could never “be organized”? An audience member talked with me about this after a presentation recently. She said, “I just don’t think I can BE organized.” I was saddened by her comment, because she clearly felt a great deal of shame about it. Unfortunately, society has a very strict [...]
