Three Steps to Follow-thru on Your Goals
March 4, 2012
Do you have a project you’re working on, but can’t seem to get it done? Do you have goals set, but can’t seem to work towards them? Why is it so hard for many of us to follow-thru on what we say we want? Maybe we’re afraid. Maybe we’re lazy. Or maybe we’re just not [...]

So Beautiful. So What.
September 16, 2011
Imagine a full moon. Bright orange, heavy in the sky. It’s one of those moons where you feel you can reach out and touch it. “Wow, look at the moon!” you might exclaim to the person next to you. And they glance, and kind of grunt “yeah”. Now imagine standing on the beach with the [...]

August 8, 2011

Jerry Seinfeld Saved my Business
August 4, 2011
Have you ever taken on a task that you didn’t think you could handle? Maybe you ran a marathon. Maybe you started your own business. Maybe you signed your first 30-year mortgage. Remember the initial fear? How am I ever going to do this? How am I ever going to make it work? Remember all [...]

The Gift of Space
May 23, 2011
Imagine I’ve given you a gift. It’s wrapped in a beautiful green box with a large yellow ribbon around it. It’s special, you can feel it. You untie the ribbon, lift the lid, and look inside. What do you see? Is it that new sweater you’ve always wanted? A new book? A kindle? Could it [...]

I Just Want To Be
I don’t want to change the world. I don’t care about being famous or flying around the world on a private jet. I just want to be. I want a loving, healthy relationship, a happy, healthy family, to be debt-free, and I want to own my own home. I enjoy being comfortable. I’m 41 and [...]
