The Monty FilesJust EnoughAfter taking a break for a couple of weeks, I talk about my blog post, "Just Enough," which is about kids, adults, and eating.2022-12-0406 minThe Monty FilesDon't Doubt - Just DoIn this solo episode, I talk more about my blog post on not doubting and just doing. We all have decisions to make in our professional/career lives and when we choose one thing we forego another. What if it's possible to forego less? What if our perspective is what really needs to change?2022-11-2012 minThe Monty FilesTen Minutes A DayAnother solo podcast where I talk about another blog post of mine, "Ten Minutes A Day." This one is about a personal process that managers (anyone really) should practice for at least a week to see whether my assertion holds water. The assertion is: Spending just 10 minutes wrapping up every work day with a review of the goings on pays dividends.2022-11-1108 minThe Monty FilesThe Greatest CountryIn this episode, I expand on a blog post of mine, "The McAvoy Rating." In 2012 "The Newsroom" aired with an opening like no other. Will McAvoy (the main character) vehemently explains why America is not the greatest country in the world and backs it up with data. I took some time to revisit that data just to see whether anything's improved.2022-11-1011 minThe Monty FilesSometimes You Can't Carry It All The WayI have a decision to make that involves three opportunities.

The Monty FilesTexas' 666 Laws666 laws went into effect here in Texas on September 1st, and some of them had me thinking more about how certain laws pass and others don't, seemingly whether the general public agrees or not. Nothing scientific - I simply offer a perspective. I also recommend a book to pick up if this sort of topic interests you. Have you ever wondered how our government came to be as it is today? Why the Constitution is structured as such? What wording might have been part of it and was negotiated out? Good title to pick up. 2021-09-0608 minThe Monty FilesTexas' 666 Laws666 laws went into effect here in Texas on September 1st, and some of them had me thinking more about how certain laws pass and others don't, seemingly whether the general public agrees or not.
