Opinion | Norton: Turning dreams into realities (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some of us have small dreams. Some have big, bold, audacious dreams. And some of us claim we don’t have any dreams at all. I’m not talking about the kind where you’re suddenly back in high school, can’t find your classroom and somehow forgot to wear pants. I’m talking about the dreams that move us from where we are today toward where we hope to be tomorrow. Over the past few weeks, we’ve explored the power of a healthy self-image, the importance of maintaining a positive attitude, and the value
Opinion | Norton: Lifelong impact when we develop a positive attitude (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We know the old clichés, right? When life gives us lemons, make lemonade. Every cloud has a silver lining. When one door closes, another one opens. And, of course, the darkest hour is just before the dawn. We have heard these expressions so many times that they can almost lose their meaning.

It got me thinking about something else: W

There is a song from the late 1960s that seems to become more meaningful the older I get. “Those Were the Days,” made famous by Mary Hopkin, begins with friends remembering a time when they were younger. They laughed. They dreamed. They believed the world was theirs for the taking. Most of us have our own version of them. Maybe it was college. The early years of a marriage. Raising children when the house was loud, the schedule was crazy and we occasionally wondered if we would ever have a quiet
Opinion | Norton: Failure doesn’t define us, it teaches us (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week’s column focused on changing the way we think about fear. One of the biggest fears many of us carry is the fear of failure. And let’s be honest, failure can feel awful when we’re living through it. But just as we need a healthier mindset about fear, we also need one about failure. You’ve probably read books or blogs telling you to see failure as an opportunity to learn. I couldn’t agree more. Failure is one of life’s greatest teachers, but only if we’re willing to become its student. I
