We all have ways to work with the stress that this past year and Covid brought on us. For me, I dive into work and eat chocolate! Last week I visited my friend Ernesto who is a psychologist and lives by Central Park in NYC. He has a different method to deal with his isolation feeling, living by himself. He takes daily walks to the park and explores it. "Did you know Central Park has 1200 different types of roses?'' he said. And "check this flower" as he showed me all the flower photos on his phone. It was so calming to look at his collection of colors. And what a great reminder of the seasons and how nature can...
I participated in a conference of psychologists this past weekend. The subject was psychology during COVID. How interesting it was to listen to a different professional speak about this collective trauma from their point of view and to see the need for community.

Let me share some of the highlights from today: * Many of us feel we are better buyers and more focused on our businesses since March. * We all deepened our relationships with our customers, friends, and family. * We learned about patience * We learned about gratitude * We learned about loyalty. And to let...
