There’s a lot of things you should be doing right now. Exercising, preparing healthy food, catching up on sleep, meditating, checking your email, etc. We live in a busy culture, and if you’re not moving you’re probably getting left behind. That’s we’re told. People go, and go, and go. Constantly stimulated because they need to … [Read more…]
I’ve got a crazy idea for you today. Consider with an open mind, that in life, everyone gets exactly what they want. Obviously you could pick this argument apart pretty easily by pointing out people who were born into a country in the midst of a violent civil war, or children who are being neglected, … [Read more…]
Stagnation doesn’t exist in life. You’re either moving up quickly, making steady progress, slowly regressing, or quickly falling apart. Most people are slowly going down.

I think a lot of people without significant others feel this way on Valentine’s Day. What people often forget, however, is that Valentine’s Day is basically a highlight reel … [Read more…]
Sometimes it’s easy for me to work 10 hours straight. I’ll write two blogs posts, record and edit two videos, lift weights, put in a training session for juggling, spend an hour studying Spanish, and it’ll still only be 6 P.M. Other times I’ll struggle to do anything, and by the end of the day … [Read more…]
We’ve got an interesting scenario today. You’re producing great results in your life, and from the outside looking in it looks like you’ve got it all. You recognize this, and believe you should feel good, but at the same time you still experience primarily negative emotions. Why? Well, there’s several different approaches we could take … [Read more…]
When I was in 8th grade I was on a recreational soccer team playing in a winter league. The league was more competitive than my coach had expected it to be, and we got smashed almost every game. It hurts to lose every game, especially at that age, but at the time I wasn’t too … [Read more…]
I’ve seen a lot of people who struggle with motivation, including myself occasionally. At some point everyone has let opportunities slip away from them.
