Posted on January 25, 2022January 25, 2022 by Greg Bulmash

Do Personal Myths Hold You Back?

Posted on January 18, 2022January 18, 2022 by Greg Bulmash

I’m PC (Polite and Courteous)

I know “do unto others as you would have them do unto you” is a radical, new-agey, liberal snowflake philosophy. And do you know which liberal snowflake is most famous for saying it?

Posted on May 1, 2021January 16, 2022 by Greg Bulmash

OneNote is my favorite note taking and mind mapping tool, but only in the Office 2016 version on Windows. The Mac version is horrible. So what do I choose to replace it when I’m required to use a Mac?
