Whether we are sports fanatics or not, most of us love to watch the Olympics. We may have our favorite sports, but we may find ourselves watching sports we don’t find quite so interesting as well. For example, I love gymnastics, dressage, tennis and soccer during the summer Olympics as well as volleyball. Yet,I watch …
I happened to come across this post, thanks to a colleague of mine who also wrote about it, written by JessicaRedfield, one of the victims in the Aurora, CO, theater shooting. She not only narrowly missed being killed during a mall shooting just over a month before she was shot but continued to harbor a …
If 21 people ended up with burns while doing a Tony Robbins firewalk, does that mean the idea of walking across 2,000 degree coals is bogus? Crazy? Really stupid? Does it mean that it can’t be done safely? Some might say, “Yes.” In fact, attendees of Tony Robbins motivational seminar, “Unleash the Power Within,” a …
Did you know that you could be doing good in the world–even be performing Godly work–and still not be fulfilling your purpose? You might actually be wasting your time by fulfilling the wrong mission.

“Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.” — Marianne Williamson For years, on and off, I’ve kept a gratitude journal. Pretty simple really.

For others, it means: getting divorced quitting a job graduating from high school or college leaving home paying off debts But once you’ve done those things, do you really experience more freedom–and for how long?

How often do you celebrate small thing, daily events, typical moments? I have to admit, I don’t do this often enough if at all. Sometime I don’t even celebrate the big moments. When I got my book contract, I remember putting the celebration off. I had so much work to do to finish the book …
I’ve spent the past few weeks in a whirlwind and turmoil of activities and issues with my kids–primarily with one of them.
