Interest vs Commitment

December 1, 2025 Growing up I always had a fascination with the Piano.  Maybe it was because we had a stand up Piano in our house or that all of my grandparents knew how to play it, regardless it was an instrument that captured my attention.  I can remember being in 1st grade and begging […]

The Biological Shoreline and the Tsunami

November 24, 2025 One of my favorite pieces of art work is entitled “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” by Hokusai. In this woodblock print we see a massive wave about to destroy several small boats.  To me, I cannot think of a better image to capture the tsunami that has come to the biological shoreline […]

The Art of Aggressive Patience

November 17, 2025 One of the most challenging themes found in the Bible is practicing the art of waiting.  In fact, I dare say that the entire Old Testament is a story about that.  Waiting.  So often in life, especially in the Prime world we live in, having to wait is viewed as an incredible […]

Read Good Books

November 10, 2025 Read Good Books When was the last time you sat down and spent your time reading a good book?  There is something nostalgic about the change in weather that provokes one to turn on the fireplace, pour a hot cup of coffee, and sit in your favorite chair with a narrative that […]

Present Time Consciousness

November 3, 2025 One of the biggest myths we have been conditioned to believe as a society is the idea of multi-tasking.  Somewhere along the way, the powers that be decided it was a great idea to slowly condition us to believe that our brain (despite thousands of years of data suggesting otherwise) magically evolved […]

At Least Don’t Lie to Yourself

October 27, 2025 Have you ever told a lie to yourself?  I have.  On multiple occasions.  It is probably one of the most sought after coping mechanisms for navigating stress in today’s day in age.  It’s just one cookie.  It’s just a beer.  It’s just…(insert your coping mechanism)  However, I was presented with a statement […]

Circle of Power

October 20th, 2025 A common motivational poster quotes the idea that you are the product of the five people you spend your time with the most.  I like to refer to this as your circle of power.  These five people can be your friends, your family, your social media presence, the list of opportunities to […]

Check your ego

October 13, 2025 Check your Ego One of the most common failures I witness in my own life is a projection of my own failures.  This can be captured when I choose to pass judgement on other people for their own choices.  Oftentimes, what I have observed at least, this is a direct result of […]

Execute on the Right Habits

October 6, 2025 One of the most prevalent lies we tell ourselves is that we are doing everything we can to move the needle forward on the quality of life that we think we want.  We believe that by eating a well balanced diet of meat, vegetables and carbohydrates that we are getting adequate nutrition.  […]

Would you trade lives?

September 29, 2025 Stop seeking validation from people you’d never trade lives with. How many of us have made a  social media post to attempt to get eyes on content? How many of you have dressed a certain way to shock and awe?  How many of you have gone to the gym wearing as little […]
