Wandering Into Wisdom

This blog chronicles the knowledge, insight and wisdom I encounter every day as a leadership consultant, executive coach, educator, father, friend and citizen. This site is dedicated to my father, Louis (Jack) Laughlin, who passed on to me an appreciation for wisdom. A special thanks to my friend Isaac Cheifetz, a businessman and journalist, who helped me understand the value of blogs and encouraged me to write one.

I Don’t Win*

While playing gin rummy with my daughter I noticed she had the chance to win but chose not to play the winning card. Assuming she had missed the play I told her she could have won. She smiled and said, “I know but I wanted to keep playing with you.” My kids constantly help me to see what’s really important.
