We all suffer from spiritual narcolepsy.  As soon as we start feeling really connected, as soon as we think we have it all figured out, life happens (and its usually something pretty minor that sets us off). Just like that, in a matter of seconds, we find ourselves on an island of crazy, looking out…

Time is our most precious asset, how we spend it defines our lives. If you struggle with managing your time, begin with just focusing on spending it with the right people. Who you hang out with is maybe the most important decision you can make each day.  Why? Because we are really just an average…

Life is about action. It’s that simple, yet that hard.  If you want big change, it starts with little things.  We as humans have a natural desire to take the path of least resistance. Our innate reaction is to choose immediate pleasure over any kind of uncomfortableness.  Rather than make our bed right now, we’d…

“Attachment is the source of all suffering “ – Buddha Our ego grabs onto anything it can, looking for things to identify itself with.  The more things it can attach itself too, the happier it becomes.  Attachment is a survival mechanism developed in early infancy, designed originally to aid a baby with creating separation from…

What we think is what we attract. If we think everyone in the world is untrustworthy, then we’ll attract untrustworthy people.

Control your mind and you control your life. I have a friend who constantly complains about his coworker.  From his description, this individual sounds very narcissistic and insecure.  They are constantly telling others about their abundant strengths and successes, especially to those upstairs at the office…according to my friend. I have to listen to my…

TODAY: Created something… Having authentic self esteem lies in simply doing esteem-able acts.  There are no shortcuts.   Self esteem grows when you do the things you said you’d do. It grows when you do the right thing when nobody is looking. It grows when you don’t exaggerate your story to make yourself look better. …

Authenticity is today’s currency… A lot of what I talk about is around mind control. Why? Because nothing is more important and nothing is more powerful. If you can control the mind, life becomes easier to navigate and much more enjoyable. Fun. Purposeful.  I’ve been through a lot physically, all of which pales in comparison…

LIVE SIMPLE When it comes to purpose in our lives, achieving the things we want and care about the most, there is no greater weapon than the human soul. Anything can be accomplished when the heart is involved. An old friend of mine used to refer to this as GAS, an acronym for Give A…

LIVE SIMPLE  We are who we believe we are.   At a young age, at some point in our developments, we label ourselves. We let someone, our circumstances, or some event in life, define us. These things then set a ceiling for us, they tell us that this is our story.  We may not even…
