Want More?
Are you seeking a richer, more rewarding life? Looking for “real-world” insight and inspiration from someone very much like you? A dreamer and doer, Delores Crum is living the ideal life – a life that she and her family crafted from “nothing”. Nothing that you don’t have! The attitudes and behavior that have enabled Delores and her family to live successfully, by their own definition, are yours for the taking.
Choose.
We all have choices. What seems like a lifetime ago, Delores had a choice too – “make do” with a comfortable, unremarkable existence or envision and achieve an abundant, joyful life. Delores chose the latter, and is living the ideal life she envisioned. Along her life journey, Delores has endured the same struggles, battled the same insecurities, faced the same issues and experienced the same challenges that you do. But Delores learned that persistence pays – and so will you. Delores knows that the choices made have consequences – and you know that too.
Be Clear.
You have an ideal life vision too. And if you don’t, or if your vision is a little cloudy, take that first step and create that crystal clear “ideal life” mental picture. That’s where it all starts. The details will come later. Embrace the dream. Norman Vincent Peale said “Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.”
It’s Simple.
The simple strategies that have worked for the Crum family, both personally and professionally, can work for you and your family too. They can help transform the life you may be settling for into the life that fulfills your fondest hopes and achieves your most ambitious goals. Delores Crum’s “How To” Guide lays out a roadmap for getting from where you are to where you want to be.
Because, in the end, “The purpose of life is not to be happy, It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it made some difference that you have lived and lived well.” Ralph Waldo Emmerson . . . echoed by Delores Crum.
Live Well my Friends.


I Love Work
I love work – it’s my thing. Next to family, productive, meaningful work is my greatest joy. An unrepentant workaholic, I’m type AAA. I subscribe to Kahlil Gibran’s view that “work is love made visible”. And so, when many my age and in my economic circumstances are “retired”, I plan to rest when I’m dead.
Eleanor Roosevelt declared “the purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for new and richer experience.” It’s those new experiences that keep me interested in the work that I do, and leave me thirsting for more.
I’ve Only Had One Job
While I’ve labored in many different fields and made a living in a variety of ways, I’ve only had one “job” – to make the most of every day. To be the best and do my best – to expect the best and give my best. I work to make life better for others – for those who are close and whom I hold dear, for those whose paths I cross from day to day and for those I can somehow aid, but will never meet.
