Born in 1950 and country grown outside of Pittsburgh where I naturally went deep. The space program was a big deal when I was 11 and 12 years old but I can clearly remember it not holding a lick of interest for me.
I was into digging and dirt. I built dams in farmer’s streams. My buddies and I built earthen forts and tried tunneling. One of the best stand-by-me adventures was following a gas line excavation for miles, all day long.
At 12 I took my first job on a farm and my love of gardening grew from there. I worked on the farm for 5 years and loved every bit of it but I especially loved digging up spuds and stacking the wooden crates high in cool, dimly lit storage rooms.
When I was 17 I took a job going deeper into the earth and worked with a backhoe operator installing sewer pipes. I loved carrying those 80 lb. terra cotta sections and jumping in and out of ditches. Can you see the developing theme? Can you see what my life was trying to tell me, even then? 
At 19, on summer break from college, I worked as a United Mine Worker in a deep shaft coal mine.

Authentic inspiration is to procrastination what sunlight is to darkness.
Procrastination or any form of resistance just can’t coexist in the presence of authentic inspiration.

The old saying goes, he who hesitates is lost. That’s true but the hesitator is more than lost – he’s lying to himself.

What do you think is the greatest indicator of wealth generation with a true calling? Is it doing what you love? Is it doing what you want to do? Is it being who you are? I’m not going to tell you here. You’ll have to go over to Barbara Swafford’s interview of me and read [...]

What if the great depression had never happened? What if industrial engineering and the dehumanization of workers had never occurred? Imagine instead the influence of a great awakening to true calling that immersed all in expressed authenticity rather than fear.

Giving it your all is more than investing courageous effort and determination. Giving it your all means going for it with everything you’ve got. You have many more resources, connections, energetic intentions and accumulated good than you imagine you do.

Good question isn’t it? I was coaching a prospective client on the possibility of launching his own business, even though, much of what his job gives him, serves him well.
