Core Values

What do you value? In other words, what's most important in your life? If we can't answer this question, then we are just running around like a headless chicken jumping from one thing to the next, or worse, just accepting everything that is thrown at us

Listen to Your Inner Child

We all have an inner child. Five to be exact! (infant, toddler, preschool, school-age, and adolescent). Listen to him or her for both positive and negative demands. If we don't destruction will ensue. This doesn't mean he rules the roost. It means that if you further

The Art of Being Present

Okay. So this is more of just a play on words. I since 2013 I've been venturing to the right side of my brain more than the rational and orderly left side. And it's been eye-opening. Now I've always been more of a physical,

To Be in Service

This is the solution to many people's problems. It is incredible to see people's problems melt away once they commit to being in service to others. Don't get me wrong it's a balancing act between not spreading yourself too thin and selling

Everyone Is On Their Own Journey

We all do things on our own time. Sometimes we can quit something cold turkey other times we have to gradually wean off. What method works for one might not work for the other. And whatever approach worked for you in one instance might not work for you in another.

It's Okay to Not Finish

Sometimes, we just need to step away from something and not finish it. And that's okay. We only have so much time on this spinning rock. We can't do it all, see it all, read it all, or be it all. We have to choose, and

Love

One word. Love. This is the secret to life. Love. It's so simple. Yet it's also paradoxical. Insofar that it is pervasive and yet so absent. Nature is all love. Humans are born out of love. We are the loving creatures of God. And yet it

New Beginnings and Transitions

It’s going to be messy, people! And we have to accept that. When we start something new we are breaking the neuropathways that have been programmed into our subconscious. The longer we have been doing the act/habit/practice the deeper the groove. It’s a transition from the

Morning Routines

Last week I woke up with a strong surge of energy to make a change. I've known it for a while, but on Friday the absolute clarity of the matter hit me hard and I fully accepted and embraced that I had to make a radical change. My

What's Your Mantra?

It is a know fact that committed daily practice to a task will yield results overtime. It is also known that everybody will hit resistance at some point. Drive, will, and determination will only get us so far. At some point, the music stops. So, what do we do when

Breathe

Yes, we all breathe or we would be dead. However, some of us only truly breathe very little or very shallowly. There. I just breathed. Consciously. The breath is one of the most powerful things we can do for ourselves. It's so simple, it's free, and

Creation Versus Consumption

We have to stop and check ourselves. Are we creating more than we are consuming? If not, we better pump the breaks and flip a switch. So what's your ratio? Everyone's will be different. Take some academics for example. Some will have a ton of books

Give and You Shall Receive

It is a universal law that one has to give to receive. One cannot receive without giving. Full stop. If you want abundance in life, or anything for that matter, you have to freely and willingly give with kindness and genuine generosity. Everything you give will come back to you

We All Have One Choice to Make

Life is filled with choices and decisions. Big or small, it doesn't matter, we all have hundreds to make every day. The reality is that it is the same choice in every single situation. And we can look at from a couple of perspectives. Firstly, will the choice

Stop Giving Your Power Away

It is shocking to see people give their power away. To the doctor, to the financial advisor, to the tradesman, to corporations, and big pharma, to their partner, or even a complete stranger. Don't get me wrong everything has its place and we need advisors and partners, but

Seize the Day

We truly do not know what tomorrow brings. So we better make the most of today and give our purpose our all. This has come up twice this past week now. Once in the KJV Bible and another in a fiction book I'm reading: One Summer in Savannah

No One Is Coming to Save You

Yep! That's right. No one is coming to save you. It might be a difficult pill to swallow, but it's true. Only you can save yourself. Just like only you can give the love you need to yourself. As is if you are bored... All of

What Game Are You Playing?

Games. We love to play them. And they are one of the most beautiful things of being human. There are a multitude of them and we can play a number of them– each one with a different role. Some of these games are fun and positive and others... well... not

What We Resist Persists

We can either face reality or not. And if we don't... well... it's just Groundhog Day. Rinse, wash, repeat. If there is that thing lingering in the back of your head. Tackle it! Face your fear head on and conquer the feeling. The feeling of resistance

We Don't Grow Unless We Produce.

We can read all the books we want or watch all the YouTube videos, but we won't truly grow until we produce work of our own and share it with the general public. It's that simple. Consuming information is a necessity for knowledge acquisition. However, we

What's in an Education

For over a week I've been taking a deep-dive into education systems–mostly between the US and the UK. I have no idea what spurred it but I scratched that itch. I think it's because I love to continuously learn and always wonder about interests I

We Are Products of Our Environments

Since we are at the beginning of a new year, it's helpful to step back and reflect and think about where we are going, what we are building, and developing. Heck, do a check-in monthly or quarterly, even. It's okay to shift gears anytime. The exercise

There Are No Shortcuts

We'd all love to be bigger, faster, better, stronger. And smarter... And like right now. But, and we all know, that's just not how it happens. We have to get the reps in, the days in, the time... This comes up as I enter my sixth

New Beginnings and Fresh Starts

Happy New Year everyone! In with the new and out with the old as the old adage goes. I had a good year, and a strong finish. Well... in some aspects of my life. In other areas, well... I'm still falling way short. I celebrated the victories, but

Take What You Want

This is kind of linked to last week's post: Don't Ask For Permission. The parallel came to me later that day actually, when I went to go see the film Napoleon in the cinema. I like most of Ridley Scott's film, but this one
