Hey, I’m Chris!
I love my wife and 5 kids, my consulting opportunities, and my life in general. I love to solve problems and usually like to find ways to do it with Technology. My hobbies include programming and learning about self development (and attempting to improve myself every day). Because lifestyle design is a passion of mine I also love to help other people unlock their true potential. If you are interested in what I am working on right now, you can see it on my Now page.
My small business consulting & web design company is Polished Stone, LLC.

I’ve been recently doing a bit of studying on being happy. This lead me to an article that basically said ” happiness does directly influence the genetic-expression of DNA” (If we are happy we are more likely to be physically healthy.) I just thought that was interesting 🙂

I just found a note I wrote down at some point. It says “Rediscover the strengths we’ve always had.” I’m thinking that often times the things we learn we are good at, are actually things we’ve always been good at, we just didn’t know it.

Want a great crash course in startups? I recently listened to a podcast presentation of Seth Godin which was awesome. He invited a handful of entrepreneurs who were just starting out in their businesses and talked with them about many of the things they would run into in building a business. Sadly, I listened while…

Shoeboxed (an expense and receipt tracking company) recently put out a video for National Small Business Week saying thanks to small businesses. I thought it was kinda cool and as I LOVE working with small businesses, I thought I would echo their message. Thanks to all those small businesses that care, those that try to…

So I just read a very interesting article titled “Progressive Reduction“. The idea is that when you design a site you need to tell people exactly what the buttons mean, and then over time as people get used to the icons you can simplify the buttons down to remove their distracting pull from the design.…
