Take Just One Step to Succeed

There's a little mountain in a state park near my home. It gains about 1,500 feet in two miles. So, four miles round trip. About two hours out of my life, not counting the drive. Even if you wouldn't take this hike today you can probably accept that you could work up to it. I'd estimate that in the past eight years I've climbed this one little mountain 40 times. I've done lots of other mountains. More dramatic ones. Mt. Katahdin in Maine. The Grand Canyon, rim-to-river and back. Half Dome. The Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. But I'm putting…

Embrace Who YOU Are

There are many things that life has taught me, often in ways I couldn't understand at the time. I was bullied at school, had a complete lack of self confidence and esteem, making me painfully shy and later, severely depressed. I have at times, felt like giving up. But those things were given to me to make me realise I am in charge of my life. When I fought back at the bullies I felt strong and happy, I knew that I could stand up for myself and take charge, that I did matter, and it felt great! Then life…

Your Miracle is Here… You!

In our high tech culture today, where we have the capacity to send emails, create iPhones, build airplanes, harness nuclear and solar energy, we seem to have lost touch with a power far greater. The power of Life. The power of the SOUL. The power of our very own Infinite nature. Up until now MIRACLES have been left to special saints, gurus, and chosen masters. Miracles have become some far out and unusual experience rather than a natural experience in our everyday living. In our scientific world, everything needs to make sense and be logical. We seem to have lost…

Power to the People (YOU!)

Right now in this moment you are experiencing the miracle of life. You may be facing challenges. You may have financial problems, health problems, relationship problems. You may be concerned about natural disasters or the state of the world. Take this moment and let go of all of those concerns. You can come back to these issues and problems later but in this moment just experience the miracle of creation. You are a divine being. You are eternal. The awareness which you are will never die and the joy of creation will always be part of you. No matter what…

Don’t Stress, Do Your Best

The most important thing to me is to always have pride in yourself and be authentic, whatever that means to you personally. If everything else in the world were to go away- the money, the titles, the material possessions- make sure that you can stand behind your name and your decisions. Your name and the way you act are your legacy. If you do something, do it 100%. If you say something, stand behind what you say. Be willing to tell someone the truth that they may not want to hear (if asked and it comes from good intentions). You…

Today Is Your Someday

On our deathbed, it really won't matter how successful we were, how many awards we won or how many deals we closed. We won't regret buying "that house" or "that car" or "that new gadget." We won't long for anything other than more TIME. Time to spend with the special people who touched our lives: our friends, our significant others, our parents, our children. Time to love, to laugh, to hug, to kiss, to cherish, to encourage, to teach lessons, to learn, to pray, to praise, to hold... time for things that no currency could ever buy. Knowing that, as…

#1 Thing in Life? Family

For me, there's more to life than money. For me, it's all about people and relationships and in particular it's about the relationships we have within our own families - with our kids, our partners, and our own parents. Family life is the most important aspect of our true well-being - and so is the really important job of bringing up happy, confident, well-balanced adults - today's children - but tomorrow's future. For all children and for most adults, family life is the most important thing in life. It gives meaning to our lives - as it's a place of…
