Learning About Our Local Sikhs During The Holidays
As the world changes and we start to resemble more of a global community, there is little excuse not to learn about the neighbors and fellow community members that come from other lands. If you politely show an interest in them, politely ask questions, and be respectful, the rest is just an internet search and some reading away.

After Two Years In Pandemic Land Here's A Roadmap For A Happy, Safe, And More Prosperous Year In 2022. Redesign, Rebuild And Reclaim It For YourSelf
It's almost New Years again and we are, a lot of us anyway, looking to the future and what we can do better than we did this year. I'll grant you all that the world has thrown us a lot of curveballs. It seems like we've been hit with a continuous round of curveballs. From the Covid-19 virus to the rise in inflation, to the messy politics we're forced to endure, to the crazy rise in crime the news shows us, all the way to empty shelves in the world's "greatest" country. How can the world improve? I don't know… But I can say that people can make their lives better if they want to in 2022.

The "I Quit" Factor. What Do Nike, Facebook, John Deere, Walmart, Lowes, General Motors, Disney, American Airlines, And Others Need To Change For A Successful Workforce To Lead Them Into The Future?
Why People Really Leave Their Jobs The employment market has changed drastically in just a short, but tumultuous two years. For it to change for the better, the problems that have existed in the market for years, need to be looked at in the new and much more fluid world. That examination should start from the top of the organization or business, and go down through the ranks. It may even be time to consider that living in a purely capitalist society, with little opportunity for employees to fully enjoy the spoils of their labor, has run its' course and a paradigm shift is needed. Profit is great, but profit and success depend more on the achievements of the first line in your organization. If your first line is always leaving, spends little time with you after they're trained, and you are always in need of star players, then look within yourselves, managers. The problem may have more to do with you than you realize.

A Candid Interview About Covid, The New Omicron Virus, And Vaccines
Another Variant Is On The Way-Omicron By now, we all know that Omicron is coming. Not to be confused with the world-ending Transformer, Unicron, Omicron is likely to be less fun than the toy and cartoon character put out by the Hasbro Company. Omicron is just the latest in the endless pandemic emergency that the governments of earth, the best minds in the scientific community, and the citizens of the world have had to contend with during the past two years. We're all getting tired, even frustrated by the new world. The phrase, the New Normal, was coined in the mid-summer of 2020. Here we are, and it's nearly 2022, and nothing about this feels normal to most people. Especially those that have suffered through the hardships and suffering caused by the virus.

What Is The One Question We Should All Be Asking?
What is the one question that we should all be asking more often? Questions are the beginning of great adventures in life. They're the core of discovery. A question led us to the great mysteries of the world, to space, and the deepest depths of the ocean. Without men like the Wright Brothers, we would never have taken to the skies. Without Cornelis Drebbel, the creator of the submarine, we would never have gotten to the bottom of the seas and explored the Challenger Deep.

Magical Holidays Start With Our Wishes
Christmas Wishes We all have Christmas wishes every year--some humble, some purely materialistic, and some emotional. Christmas is a "magical" time, even if we don't openly feel that way. For some years, my personal wishes center around humble wants. Like many people, I've had some Christmas or holiday season traditions I don't care to relive. Every year I wish that I don't have to and hope for the best.
