Be a dream weaver...

I write these messages every day about what people should do to live up to their values. Today, I’d like to pause and talk about the opportunities I’ve had throughout my career to live up to my dreams. Professionally, I’ve had the good fortune to work and dream with some great colleagues in the gaming industry – especially the teams of HR pros who shared in the dreams of turning great resort ideas into realities. More recently, my consulting partner and I began planning and making unique online training a reality for managers and supervisors, something I’ve dreamed about for a long time. I’ve also had wonderful volunteer opportunities to dream with other HR leaders around the world about improving the profession, and to work with some really committed dreamers to make successful reentry a reality for ex-offenders. And personally, I’ve been able to dream and grow with my wife for what will be 44 years tomorrow – the result is a great family and the reality of being a proud grandfather to two amazing young people. We all have dreams, but the best of them are dreamed with others to become wonderful realties; thanks to everyone who has dreamed with me over the years – you’ve helped to make so many dreams come true for me and others. Find someone to share your dreams with today.
