Bradford • March 11, 2022 • Center for Individual Excellence, Center for Leadership Excellence, Motivational, Objective, Pillar - Execute, Pillar - Orient, Plan, Take Control of Life • No Comments If you have ever played the piano, perhaps as a young child then you are very familiar with the importance of “Middle C”. Middle C on the piano keyboard is actually designated C4 on the tonal scale. What makes it much more central than its scientific position as C”4” is the fact that it is how pianists, whether learning chopsticks or playing Rachmaninoff, orient themselves to.

Have you Discovered the Swan Within?

Bradford • March 8, 2022 • Center for Individual Excellence, Center for Leadership Excellence, Identity, Motivational, Objective, Pillar - Orient, Take Control of Life • No Comments You’ve likely heard the children’s story about the ugly duckling, who grew up thinking he was ugly because he was different than his siblings. He lived his life ashamed of who he was and saw the world as a dark and cruel place. After some time had passed, he caught his reflection in a pond, and realized he was a beautiful swan. This experience changed how he saw the world, and how he saw himself.   He did not change. His circumstances did not change. What did change was his perspective. His view of himself changed as he accepted who he really was and realized it was his differences that made him beautiful.
