What are you waiting for? Last week, almost 30,000 women and men in Long Beach, Calif., and countless more via the Web, have heard the call: It’s time. It’s time to take action on your dream, or against the dissatisfaction you feel. It’s time to move forward… to stop waiting.
I’ve attended The Women’s Conference for the past three years. Each time I leave with renewed hope, inspired to take another step toward the life I desire. As I write this on the flight home, my mind is buzzing with excitement and energy (and exhaustion). I’m overwhelmed with the ideas and inspiration Maria Shriver, the conference team and the speakers generously pour into this forum for women.
Attending a conference is only worth the time and expense if you actually do something with what you’ve learned, and...
When you’re a high-profile celebrity, your photo is taken all the time: out shopping, walking the dog, or late nights out. Some of those photos turn out great and some turn out to be a little risqué. For example, while looking for photos of Serena Williams for last year’s October cover, I came across a photo of her in a thong bikini. Not quite SUCCESS cover material...

Today, I’d like to take a lesson from a godfather of soul. No, I’m not talking about James Brown. I’m talking about the man who is godfather to R&B star Usher.
Entertainment legend Ben Vereen.
Now, I have to tell you that one of the things that most surprised me in my interview with Usher for our October cover story was his humility. I mean, let’s face it; the guy could have a head the size of Manhattan, and people would still buy his albums. If you rank up there with the Beatles and the Bee Gees when it comes to Top 10 singles, you’re almost expected to have an ego as big as your success.
Usher is aware of the expectation. “People think this lavish lifestyle is fun and games all the time, that there’s nothing serious about it,” he said...

I’m a serious student of time management. I was hooked the first time I attended a Franklin-Covey seminar—I was 23. Using a system that included life planning (not just a calendar), I was able to get more done without feeling so scattered.
But since then, “more” has turned into a lot more. And it’s not just my stuff that that I have to keep track of… it’s my kids, my husband, work, school, writing deadlines, travel schedules, etc. Keeping everything organized in one online calendar helps, but the warning light on my mental-stress indicator was flashing OVERLOAD on a regular basis.
So it’s no wonder that the title of Patrick Lencioni’s book The 3 Big Questions for a Frantic Family caught my attention. Frantic is exactly how I felt. Maybe Lencioni and his book could offer some guidance...

As I sit down to write, I imagine our contributing editor Don Yaeger on assignment: Deep in South Louisiana, he’s swatting mosquitoes in the swelter of this July afternoon. He’s sweating. Every once in a while, he has to stomp a foot to keep a fire ant from climbing up his sock. And he’s loving every minute.

I remember Walter Cronkite saying the best training you could get as a reporter was at your hometown paper, where you better spell your neighbors’ names right or risk getting punched in the nose. I started my journalism career 28 years ago at my hometown paper, The Baytown Sun, on the upper Gulf Coast of Texas.
