Flights/Hotels/Spartan Tickets Booked – Training Commenced

To give everyone a nice little update on the upcoming trip to Malaysia, I'm EXCITED! I haven't left the country since Maldives last year.  Does anyone know how long it's been?! Although I've now left a very forgettable neighborhood, the "fun and hobbies" portion of the wheel of life has taken a massive hit.  I now...

Questions & Answers: Friendship Woes

Ahhh, thank you for asking the question and hopefully I have the answer!  A listener from Iraq asked me, "my friend and I have been friends for years, but after a miscommunication, we stopped talking for several months.  I tried reaching out to her and she never responds; however, she posts daily on social media."...

September – The Last Third of The Year. New Years Resolutions, Anyone?

Ahhh...the month of champions.  Going back to just a year ago....this was the month before a soon-to-be vacation in Bali, Indonesia.  Here in Thailand, this is the month when the climate begins to cool down.  This is when everything that has happened all year long begins to come into fruition.  The excitement, for whatever reason,...

Monthly Wheel of Life – Purpose Becoming Fulfilled!

Jimmy began laughing in confusion as to why he was in that...

If You Want To Gather Honey, Don’t Kick Over The Beehive.

Criticism.  Condemnation.  Complaining. The ultimate killers of humanity and a few of the deadly horsemen that Napoleon Hill mentioned in his book almost a hundred years ago. "When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of emotion, creatures bristling with prejudices and motivated...

Toxic Workplace Environments

We've all dealt with them before.  Those toxic colleagues who seemingly complain about every detail in their lives; and at the same time, you find yourself in the heart of it all, or do you? We make a choice everyday to think the thoughts we think, to speak the way we do, and to be...

Conditioning The Mind

"The mind doesn't know anything about age, your subconscious mind knows nothing about time and space.  And so, I am hanging around young people all the time and I operate like they do.  I don't think of myself as being old." - Bob Proctor That's how powerful the mind is.  I want you think way...
