Yesterday I achieved one of my 2015 goals. I wanted to cycle to the top of a steep, one-mile long hill near my home by my birthday. Well…yesterday was my birthday, and I did it! I rode my bike all the way up that hill. However, I didn’t do it by getting on my bike …
I hear the same thing from so many sources: Create daily rituals or routines. Doing so leads to higher performance and goal achievement. What do daily rituals look like? Maybe you get up early enough to exercise, meditate and journal. Or you read the bible and pray before you start your day. Possibly you do …
During a telephone conversation some years ago, friend of mine asked me, “Are you enjoying your new house?” She knew we had purchased a 25-year-old home in the Santa Cruz Mountains in Northern California and our back yard consisted of a fabulous Redwood grove. The house had a two-story western-facing wall consisting of floor to …
December and January are huge goal-setting months. As the New Year approaches and settles in, like me, you may have created new targets to hit in the next 12 months. You now have a long list (or a short list) of personal and professional goals you’d like to achieve. However, it’s easy to forget an …
New Year’s Eve passed with all the usual pomp and circumstance and took our 2014 achievements and failures along with it. At midnight, a new year began and brought us a clean slate upon which we each can write our goals, plans and dreams for the next 12 months. If you actually wrote down your …
Many people think of me as a highly productive person. They ask me how I accomplish so much. They want to know my methodology for getting so much done. I don’t think of myself as a high producer or high performer. Yet, its true that I create a fair amount of written work, such as …
I’m a dreamer. How about you? But dreams don’t do us much good if they stay in our heads. I’ve been known to act on my dreams…even without a whole lot of planning or forethought. Sometimes that’s okay. It’s better to take action to make your dreams a reality than to do nothing at all. …
The other day I was speaking with a dancer about perfection. Dancers constantly strive for perfection, but it’s an unattainable goal. No matter how well they perform, no matter how seemingly perfect their last pirouette, no matter how amazing their last double tour…it can always be better. Some people feel fine with “good enough.” Others, …
Results. We want to achieve them in all areas of our lives—in business, health, fitness, career, finances, and relationships. We have dreams and goals, and we want the actions we take to realize them actually to turn into results. How do we ensure that we achieve results on a regular basis? It can be difficult …
About two years ago I was told by a medium that I had many spirit guides around me. She described them as standing behind me so I couldn’t move backward. That explained the feeling I had at the time of being pushed forward continually. In fact, prior to my 50th birthday I felt an urgency …

As a Jew, I’m now in the midst of Days of Awe, the 10 days between the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah and the Day of Repentance, Yom Kippur. During this time we are supposed to take an accounting of our sins and repent for them. However, I think the biggest sin of all is …

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.
