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.
Hey Friend! Welcome to my ramblings.

So the other day I found an article online about gift cards. It was talking about how when you buy a gift card it is actually a loan. I had never thought of this before. The article went on to say that if a store goes bankrupt one of the things they do is stop…

Ok, I realize that I posted about this before, and that I was going to exercise and things, but I am starting to really feel a need to get into good shape. It is one thing when you walk up stairs and you are out of breath – not that it is ok, but it…

I have learned over the last few days that when you are having trouble getting things done, the antidote is… you guessed it! ACTION! Just start doing things! Maybe you feel like you have too much to do (your todo list got too long?) Then Make a SHORT todo list – one with just a…

Some days things just don’t seem to go well. You finally get to working on something you have been putting off, and nothing seems to be working right. We have all had the experience of deleting the work we have just spend hours working on. Or maybe we didn’t delete it, but our computer shut…

So in the past I’ve tried to come up with code so that when you click a link that “unhides” a div, that it closes the rest of them. Well today I was working on something where I needed that functionality and I thought I’d post it for all to use. I’m sure I’m not…

As I hoped, this week has already been more effective than the whole first part of February! While taking a break today I was pointed to this article by Chris Brogan. It is some great advice on cutting back on things that aren’t as important. I’ve been thinking a lot about this the last couple…

Alright, today was pretty good. I actually managed to get some things done. You know how did it? I knew today was a day off, and anything I got done was a bonus. So I just set out to get a couple of things done. I focused on getting them done, and now it means…

So, I’m not really sure how to get out of this rut. Maybe its a bit of “senioritis”, or maybe I’m just not in the game, but it has been a rough couple of weeks. I’m still getting everything done, just not when, or how I would like to. Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day… Maybe that…

Ok, they are still a work in progress, but I wanted to give a basic description of what I have put together as my routines, and give a brief report on how it is working. (These ideas come as a compilation of ideas form others most of which I cannot take credit for.) Mornings The…

Being a dad is great! Jayden got his first tooth this weekend, and although it has been a rough couple of weeks, its nice to know why now. He is so cute, I will gladly take the bad with the good. Although he is in the other room right now crying with Kristine, there have…
