Do you believe in the Law of Attraction? A lot of people do, indeed, believe thoughts can create or “attract” desires and make them a reality. Others think the Law of Attraction is a lot of bunk—you can’t deliberately magnetize anything into your experience by merely thinking about it. I fall into the first camp. …

A life review provides an indication of whether or not you are living as your best self. Sometimes you think you are doing whatever possible to live into and become the best version of yourself, but…in reality…you are not. The Jewish High Holy Days, like the secular New Year, provide a fabulous time to go …

Presence. Being mindful. The “now.” This state of being seems far removed from a concern over results, especially the results you get from being present. In fact, the more present you are, the better the results you achieve—in every area of your life. Become more present at work, and you are more productive. Become more …
I’ve recently had the honor of receiving help from someone. This person could be earning a lot of money helping someone else, but he chose to help me—for free. Despite everything I know about giving and receiving, which are integrally related, and what I’ve learned during my years of personal growth work, I have found …

How many things have you started and not finished? How often have you said you’d do something and then had no follow through? Be honest. I know I’m at fault of doing both—starting and not finishing and not following through. If you often don’t get to check off a task or commitment as “done,” you …
I’m having a spiritual crisis. I haven’t stopped believing in God (or whatever you want to call the Divine Creator). I just can’t seem to feel connected to It. In fact, I don’t just want to feel connected. I want to receive an inflow of Divine wisdom and love. I want to be an open …

I had a dream. It feels far away now… I still remember it, but it’s difficult to feel the passion and excitement I used to have each time I imagined myself realizing that dream. Did I lose it? Or is my dream still there…waiting for me to bring it to life? How about you? Do …
In this day and age, the query, “How are you?” more often than not elicits the response: “Busy.” But are you stuck doing busy work…rather than your life’s work? I feel busy much of the time…with busy work. And that often keeps me from my life’s work. So, I understand. Really. I do. There’s so …

I blame others—more often than I care to admit. For example, I blame my fear of people leaving on my father, who died when I was seven. I blame my feelings of inadequacy as a writer on my mother, who told me I couldn’t earn a living as a novelist. But if I can blame …
How often have you considered doing something—writing a book, jumping off the high diving board, parasailing, driving cross country, ending your marriage, having children, changing jobs, bungee jumping, sharing your real feelings or thoughts, or moving out of the country—only to stop yourself from taking action? I’ll bet, like most people, you’ve done this many …
Years ago, I taught a class on mirroring. I gave all the participants small hand-held mirrors, but their task went beyond looking at their reflections. I challenged them to see in the mirror the part of themselves reflected by other people—especially those who triggered them in some way. If someone in their lives or certain …
What makes the difference between setting a goal and achieving it or not achieving it? Motivation. Without motivation, no matter your ambition, you’ll struggle to move toward achieving that goal.
