A question I get a life, "why aren't you a life coach?" My answer is simple. "I don't have it all figured out enough to tell anyone how to live every aspect of their life." In fact, no one can do that. You shouldn't look for one person to be the be-all, end-all to your problems or path. But there is something you can do instead to get better results...

Often our failures aren't from lack of effort, but rather from trying to force situations that aren't there, or pushing too hard at the wrong times. If we can learn to be patient, we can achieve the results we're after with less effort. Focus on timing, not power.

It's true, you're the sum of the people you surround yourself with. While this is great in theory, most of us don't know how to identify covert toxic associations and people in our lives. Today we discuss how to do just that.

Do you ever go through those periods in life where nothing's really happening? Meaning you don't feel like you're making progress in any one area, you don't see the growth, and you get down on yourself for not "producing?" Those are the most pivotal times in life and are often misdiagnosed.

I had an unshakeable headache yesterday so i googled it to find the cause. I found there are several types of headaches that manifest in different parts of your head and neck. Since my self-identified tension headache was a product of stress, I thought about the stresses in my life and what I did to cause them.

When I'm in town, I get my coffee every morning at the iconic Jimmy's Italian Food Store in Dallas, TX. A group of us get together before the store opens, have coffee and crack jokes. One of my buddies is the funniest guy I know...but also the hardest workers I Know. There' s a lot we can learn from his approach to life.

Ever since Day Light Savings, I've had these birds outside my house singing loudly in the early mornings when I record this podcast. They annoyed me until it rained last night and they weren't there this morning.....I took for granted the fact they were in a good mood and brought life to my morning.

How often do we take great things for granted?

You know the old adage, "there's nothing new under the sun?" While I know it's true, listening to a recent podcast interview my brother was on called "The Circuit of Success," i Learned how true that is...and how the lessons from it can help you achieve your current large goals.

While working on a new book this weekend, I stared blankly at the screen for eternity. No thoughts came to mind, no ideas...just a blinking cursor. We stress ourselves when we feel stuck, but perhaps the blank page is the key to a clear mind and new opportunities.

My mom recently sent me a picture of a little pot she found that made back in middle school. What was particuarly interesting about the pot was how excited I was about it...until my much more talented sister who did the same project, brought home a magnificent elephant shaped teapot.

I was crushed...until all these years later, I learned why we should never compare ourselves to others.
