Beach Walk 273 – Slow Learner

OK. So I am a slow learner. Seems a lot of others who watch BW know how to put themselves first. (See the poll results.) It really helps me hear from you all how you are managing your lives. Here’s my...

Beach Walk 326 – Minding My Kuleana

Hawaiian word for the day: kuleana. I try to focus on mine, instead of everyone else’s. Our nice HD camera is still in the shop so we are using the old standby. It really doesn’t like it when we shoot...

Beach Walk 443 – New Media At Pixelodeon

Strangely enough, I was feeling a bit speechless today and by “coincidence” our battery died before I could finish up this episode! I suspect the dead battery was merely a reflection of my mental...

Beach Walk 560 – Negotiating with Friends

I think it is easy to confuse the meaning of “putting business first” or “putting friends first.” It’s more subtle than that if you want the business and the friendship to grow as a result of the...

Beach Walk 644 – CEO Pay Revisited

I like this concept of “marking the territory” – not like a dog, but as students of consciousness. It is so easy to get caught up in the robotic rush of repetition, day in and day out. I read in...

Beach Walk 663 – Kuleana Counts

One of my favorite Hawaiian words is kuleana. I love the sound of it and I love the meaning of it. It basically means to take care of your “business.” It seems so instinctual to blame others for our...
