  • Get Up Again When You Get Knocked Down

    Get Up Again When You Get Knocked Down

    Photograph by Lee Down Some days are brutal! I know you know what I mean. We’ve all had them! I’ve had so many metaphors run through my head for how this feels. That’s enough of that, the title says enough – like that song, “I get knocked down, but I get up again. You’re never…

  • Get Up Again When You Get Knocked Down

    Some days are brutal! I know you know what I mean. We’ve all had them! I’ve had so many metaphors run through my head for how this feels. Keeping your head above water when the world is pushing you under. (I thought it sounded to much related to cash) When you feel like a bobbing…

  • Growth

    For the sake of writing! There has been a hesitancy, even a fear or sense of dread, about writing on the blog pages of One Man Can. You see, the whole premise of the site, the writing, the coaching, the encouragement, was and is intended to lift people up, challenge people positively with their thinking,…

  • Clean Out Your Own Basement | When Things Go Wrong | Change Starts Within

    This thing was eating at my gut. Sitting at the computer playing my little games wasn’t filling the time. Something is urging me toward action, toward more activity. Where, to what focus, and for what purpose? I log in to check my site stats. I’ve got lots of archived articles from the old scheduled for…

    Courage & Love Prevails

    Weary to the bones, feeling the heaviness and despair, the fatigue demands you to sit and breathe awhile. As you sit and withdraw within the burdened mind and heart, you pant for breath, for life to return. A gust of wind stirs and refreshes you momentarily, clearing away the dark thoughts of the day, the…

  • Life Changes a Man | Man Changes Life | Transformation Journey

    A lot can change in a man’s life, and a lot in life can change a man. This is my story. In the past, my site was my business. I am a Professionally Trained Life Coach from the highly acclaimed Coaches Training Institute. That training was pivotal in providing tools to engage and struggle through…

  • Changes, Changes, Changes: Hang On!!

    Need I say more? Dealing with the turbulence that comes often with changes, I can lose my cool, lose my patience, lose my calm, lose my mind, and even lose my way. This happens as the physical calm of routine vanishes and the mind enforces new routines and both the mental and physical aspects of…
