With another year behind us, and a holiday season filled with enough sweets and eats to keep you satiated…
In the past few years, there’s been a massive surge in the number of online education resources. In particular, we’ve seen a mass movement to teach people how to code in forms that range from the most casual (code.org, codecademy, etc.) to striving to be more formal (Coursera, Udacity, Udemy, GA…

I have spent SO. MUCH. TIME preparing for a task, developing and learning about a certain productivity system… Yet I never put it into practice. It’s truly a mix of reasons 1,2, and 3, as even if I have my system ready, I’m not sure WHAT I’m trying to accomplish (getting lost in the weeds,) and then I’m not sure how to start (what needs to be…

For the past few years I’ve written as well as posted videos online all to do with Guitar teaching..while in the background I’ve been reading books, attending seminars/workshops and generally learning as much as I could in other areas. I’ll get onto the main point of…

A couple weeks ago I asked if you were really going to do it. If you were really going to create what you want to create and commit to moving forward with what’s most important to you. In response, a sweet soul sent me an email about why she can’t do all the things she needs and wants to do…
I can’t believe it’s the end of 2017… Where did the time go?

“…to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.” ~ William Shakespeare (Hamlet)

Here’s something I’d love to share with you!
Marie Forleo is a fabulous lady we can all learn a lot from. She’s an entrepreneur, writer and an optimist. Her husband, Josh is an actor.
It’s that time of year—productivity-minded folks are putting tidy bows on their personal yearly reviews; now it’s time to draft goal-lists for the oh-so-close Fresh Start that is January 1st.
This takes a lot of extra time, but applied effectively this can be very powerful!
I took a long one year nap. Yes, I prefer to call it a nap since it could have lasted for a lifetime and would have been a sleep in that case.
I used to live my life, on what I call an ‘autopilot’ mode. Autopilot is a state…

Do you have trouble with saying ‘no’? Can you stand your ground? Do you hold your ground?
If you’re waiting until January 2018 to start implementing your goals, you’re already behind.
The heart wants what it wants. It wants to scream and shout, to be free in the wilderness we call Earth. It takes its time, checking with…
Beautifully succinct. I am going through the process of ‘becoming a writer’.
The hardest part — realising there is a process to it. The best part — how much easier it becomes once you’ve identified your ideal process and start to put that into action!
To follow the bureaucracy or to satisfy the customer? That’s a tough question when…
Every day, every hour, every minute we are faced with a choice of one or another kind:
Yes it is @TeresaColon and I love the quote by Zig Ziglar — You can get everything you want just as long as you help others get what they want — but yet still think me first too much. Hoping to switch that up from here on out.
Have a great holiday season and thanks for your kind words. They mean a great deal.
I basically have no material success in my life. I live with two of my friends right now. But I’ve been trying to figure this life shit out.
It’s not that I’m not a hard worker, I love to put in the work and I always try my hardest. And achieving big things have always…

This is my therapy. This is my journal of the next 30 days before my wife and I leave living at the group home full-time.
Thanks for your kinds words Danielle Bernock. It wasn’t always easy and still isn’t but nothing worth having ever is. Everybody has a story but those that use it as fuel like yourself can end up being extremely inspirational for others who are trying to write new pages.
Thanks again for your support and have a great holiday season.

I’m not going to lie I went back and forth earlier today trying to decide if I would record this show as it’s very personal and something I have NEVER talked about before. But as this podcast is about my life it only seemed like it…

You are not alone.
You’re welcome, Michael Thompson and I agree that things of value take time to build or grow. It took me a while to learn that one too.
Use it as fuel
I’m thankful it’s noticeable in that fashion. This is a quote I love and used to open my second book.

Are you one of those people who tend to look back on decisions you’ve made in the past? Do you spend too much time dwelling on them? Are you afraid of closing one door to opening another? These are some questions that I had to answer myself a few months ago…

Social media is meant to be social, but suddenly, when you visit, you are hit by the noise. It just might be an indication that you have lingered too long and have overdosed on quotes.
