Are “we the people” expecting politicians to save our children and restore family and community values? A politician’s job is to pass laws and spend taxpayers’ money. Beware of giving politicians too much power. Hitler demonstrated how one man took over Germany, gradually becoming a nation of followers. Putin is today’s example of one man’s evil power to control people as he tries to extend his power beyond Russian borders. Could that happen in America? The world will never see peace if we ignore the power of the human spirit. Look around; what areas in your city have peaceful neighborhoods?... Continue Reading

What a way to be carried This is a reprint of a classic blog that I wrote in June 2020 when I first started my company Shiageto Consulting. Enjoy! In this series, I share with you some of the key learnings I have had from my first 6 months of launching my first start-up (Shiageto Consulting) and how those lessons are applicable for the challenges my business is facing during this pandemic crisis (and any business at any time in fact) The initial challenge Last Saturday morning I spent 2 hours videoing and editing a business vlog, followed by 30 minutes on Facebook Live joined by 20 of my friends... Continue Reading

I felt so alone, struggling to reconcile my ambitions with reality. Having... Continue Reading

Police are NOT the problem! Police are escape goats for politicians who don’t want to discuss the breakdown of the family which has dramatically changed our cities. Targeting police and guns are not “solutions” and will do little or nothing to keep cities safe. What happened that has created so much anger and division in America? 1.     We are failing to discuss the real problem! We need to start a discussion on how to raise children without mental, physical, emotional, or sexual abuse at home. (Taxpayers spend $220 million a day on child abuse and neglect. 6.6 million children referred... Continue Reading

Many parents are setting children up to fail. Youth need to know how to survive a drug infested, sexualized, violent culture which is America today. Young people are under attack as drugs, gangs, hate groups, child sex trafficking, child abuse, date rape, internet porn and violence lure youth into self-destructive behaviors. In Detroit during one month over 1000 people were shot. In Chicago, murders increased 50% in 2020 and another mass shooting killed 10 people in Boulder, CO. The shooter was 21 years old.   In the summer of 2020, we watched youth in American cities loot stores, jump on cars,... Continue Reading
