It doesn’t take all day…

To realize the Sun is Shining. Yet, occasionally, we do take all day…and sadly we realize that we were part of something really special…when it’s almost over. But, we can “Spin it and Win it” for our future, by not allowing our perceptions of finding we are part of something really special…late in the game…. Read more »

My Metabolism has Gone Down…

Is that your excuse?? I hear it everyday…, “My metabolism has gone down, I can’t eat like I used to, I don’t have time to exercise like I used to….” Great excuses, and that’s what they are. Yes, your metabolism does go down with age but not as much as you would like to think…. Read more »

Time has changed…

But not me. Good thought, but we all change over time and so does everything else, so we might as well keep up with it. Our clothes, our style, and even our living situation should change over time, but we have a tendency to hold on to the past until we need a “makeover”. And… Read more »

Our Record

I have some questions about the “Record” that plays inside our heads.

Big Jim was a good…

Father, yet he would get upset for the littlest things when he came home from work. The kids would be playing video games with the volume too loud, there rooms would always be a tad untidy and in the kitchen there was crumbs on the floor. For years he would be upset, instead of loving… Read more »

It’s not as bad as you think…

When we go to the Doctors office, we usually fear the worst…the same goes as we muddle over other areas of our life, many times we think the worst. Initially, this is not negative thinking, it is our innate process of survival which prepares us for the game plan, if things are really as bad… Read more »

The Story of the 2 Wolves…

One evening, an Old Cherokee Chief told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside all people. He said, “My son, the battle is between two “wolves”, within or minds…inside us all. One is Evil – It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and… Read more »

Success…

Comes with perseverance over time, but sometimes not within the time frame we would like. Research shows that an “Overnight Success” on average, takes 20 years. So don’t give up on your path of success, because you never know when it’s about to bloom. – Dr. Vik, The Culture King
