In this episode, we explore the deep symbolism behind an old piece of equipment found in the woods. As I examine it closely, I can't help but see the parallels it holds with life and business. Just like this forgotten machinery, when we neglect to take action on what we know we need to do, we become trapped in the obstacles and challenges that surround us.
The tree growing around the equipment becomes a powerful metaphor for how we, too, can become immobilized and unable to move forward. We become burdened by the rust and the bent parts that life has caused, until we allow a higher power, represented here as the farmer, to clean us up and make us functional once again.
If we fail to utilize our gifts and abilities, we are no better than that useless piece of equipment. It is crucial for us to shed the things that hold us back and keep pushing forward. We must not permit the tree of life to grow around and weigh us down. Instead, we should continually strive to do what we know we need to do, taking the next step, and refusing to let life hinder us from fulfilling our purpose.
With this profound analogy, we are reminded of the importance of consistently doing good work and not allowing ourselves to become engulfed by the metaphorical tree that obstructs our path.

In this episode, we delve into the concept of time management and its true nature. As I recently discovered through my book club's reading of "Eat That Frog," time itself cannot be controlled or managed. It marches forward relentlessly, regardless of our efforts. However, what we do have control over is how we make use of the time available to us. Days, weeks, months, and years will pass by, no matter what actions we take or words we speak. What truly matters is the destination we arrive at when that time has elapsed.
Rather than fixating on the elusive notion of time management, we must redirect our focus towards self-management. It is through disciplined self-management that we can make the most effective use of our time. "Eat That Frog" emphasizes the vital importance of concentration and honing in on our highest-value activities. The book encourages us to identify the tasks that only we can accomplish and prioritize them as our top priorities, metaphorically referring to them as the 'frogs' that need to be eaten first.
To achieve effective self-management, setting clear goals and understanding what we aim to achieve in various aspects of our lives is crucial. The book suggests a series of brief questions to answer, giving ourselves only 30 seconds per question. Surprisingly, these concise answers often prove to be just as accurate, if not more so, than spending hours pondering over them. By honestly and concisely answering these questions, we gain a clearer understanding of our true desires and aspirations in life.
Ultimately, the key lies in remaining focused on our goals, taking action, and consistently producing quality work. Through deliberate and mindful self-management, we can make the most of the time we have and steer ourselves towards the successful outcomes we seek.

DISC personality profile. (https://www.personalityservice.com/portal/MMZX)
In this episode, we explore the fascinating world of the DISC model and its four basic personality types. Understanding these types can greatly enhance our ability to navigate conflicts and find resolutions that work for everyone involved.
The first personality type we discuss is the Dominant type. Dominant personalities have a strong desire for power and control in conflicts. They are driven to assert their opinions and make decisions quickly, often without much consideration for others. While their directness can be intimidating, it is important to recognize their need for efficiency and effectiveness.
Next, we delve into the Influencing type. These individuals seek integration and collaboration in conflicts. They are skilled at building relationships and are often persuasive in swaying others to their point of view. Their outgoing and enthusiastic nature brings energy to conflicts, making them more dynamic and inclusive.
Moving on, we explore the Supportive personality type. These individuals tend to deny conflict altogether, avoiding it at all costs. They prioritize harmony and maintaining positive relationships, sometimes at the expense of addressing important issues. Understanding their avoidance tendencies can help create a safe and open environment for conflict resolution.
Finally, we examine the Cautious personality type. Cautious individuals suppress their emotions and thoughts in conflicts. They value precision and accuracy, often taking longer to process information and make decisions. Recognizing their need for information and time can contribute to a more well-rounded discussion and ultimately lead to more thoughtful resolutions.
By gaining insight into these personality types and their approaches to conflict, we can cultivate better relationships and find amiable solutions. Whether you are interested in applying this knowledge to personal or professional situations, we encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or are interested in exploring more about the Disc model or starting a small business.

What if you could change your life by setting IMPACTFUL goals?
Maybe you tried it in the past and it didn't work??
You might have gone about it all wrong....
Get your notebook out, cause today we're talking all about the "how and why" of goal setting, and how to set yourself up for success.
Responsibility begins with the willingness to take the stand that one is cause in the matter of one’s life. It is a declaration not an assertion, that is, it is a context from which one chooses to live. ~ Werner ErhardNo matter what your situation is, you have the power to change it if you accept responsibility for it.

Ariel, along with her husband Clay, their dogs, cats, bees, and poultry, lives in a tiny house on wheels in the mountains of western Wyoming and they are working on setting up their own new little homestead. She's been living this lifestyle since 2014 and her wonderful partner has joined her more recently. They collect and split wood for heat, source water from a gravity feed out of a natural spring, use a composting toilet, have a small solar setup, and attempt to grow, hunt, or forage as much of their own food as possible between the weather and wildlife. Living a little over 6000 feet above sea level tucked into the mountains means it's a somewhat harsh and cold climate with snow on the ground 8+ months a year and potential frost, freezes, and even snow flurries all summer long. Ariel loves to garden, cook, can/freeze/ferment/dehydrate food, hike and backpack in the mountains, and photograph the tame and wild animals she is surrounded by. And share the skills she has learned with others.
