The world according to Fames

Good morning Planet Famers! I hope you are all having a good start to your week! First, I am not even going to bother apologizing at this point for the late blog, because it seems that Monday or Tuesday morning is a far more achievable deadline! haha At this point, I guess I am going to go with: "Try to post a new blog by Sunday, but the actual deadline may very depending on the current situation." How's that for a political answer? A deadline, that doesn't actually mean anything! HAHA maybe I have a future career in politics! Nah...I'm too honest... I'd never get elected... OK, now that's out of the way! I've gone back and forth since I started blogging again, about whether I would bring up the topics of addiction, mental health, treatment, or basically anything dealing directly with what I do for a living. As most of you know, and if you don't...do you live under a rock? lol I own and founded JDS Consulting Inc. We are a relatively small ...

Good morning Planet Famers! Once again, I missed my Sunday deadline! haha I apologize! This week, I actually have a legitimate reason though! I was a little preoccupied with getting ready for the 2018 NCAAD, National Conference on Alcohol & Addiction Disorders, being held at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim California! If you are in the area, and can come by, please do! Conference started yesterday, and goes until Wednesday. JDS Consulting Inc. Co-sponsored a booth in the KIPU Pavilion with Neuvaunt Corp. ANYWAY! Back to the planet! I want to talk about "The Unexpected Journey" this week. First, I should start by explaining what I mean by that. When we are kids, at certain points in our lives, we get asked what we want to be when we grow up. Then as we get older, we get asked again at various different points in our development,  junior high, high school, college, and so on. Some of us, though admittedly few, give the same answer throughout our development. I am remi...

Good morning Planet Famers! I hope you all had a great week, and of course an even better weekend! I apologize for the delay in posting again! Life just seems to be ever getting in the way! Work has just been so busy, and it's all..well mostly good! Any problems or issues right now are certainly good problems to have! New clients, new projects, completely new ventures, and or course life is always happening! Let's just say I am not a person that is "lacking something to do"! haha That said, it brings me around to the topic, or rather the subject matter that brought this topic to mind. My Hope is that you might find a little tidbit of wisdom or perspective that you can use for your own life. Or at the very least, get you to think about your own life and perspectives. As I mentioned, I have been pretty busy! Work has been just crazy, and while I stated that the problems I have are all "good problems", they are often still problems. Taking on new client...

Greeting once again Planet Fames! Once again it looks like I owe you all an apology. My blog is late, and while I know you all understand how "life" can get in the way, I wanted to start off by apologizing for my tardiness. I promise to try harder, to keep my word and have the blog posted by Sunday! That said, this week I am at a loss for what to write about. I have started this blog 3 times, get about 3 paragraphs in, then delete it all because I don't like the direction it's going in. This tells me, that I need to spend a little bit more time processing and formulating my topic. SO, I am just going to leave it here for now, and I promise you all a better blog this weekend! Again, sorry it's late, and sorry it isn't much this week! haha Next time will be better! Thanks everyone!
