Me...a chip off the old block

A Father’s Love Goes Full Circle

The time I had with my dad was very short…12 years to be exact. He died a young man of 36. Believe me…we had our ups and downs, but the focus of this post is set on the ups. And there were plenty. Being I was his first son, our relationship was pretty darn special. […]

Momentum Is a Powerful Force… Bring the Action!

Momentum is a powerful force…a very powerful force. And once it is in motion, it’s difficult to stop…it’s almost self-perpetuating. Look…it’s given credit for almost every achievement. You give it a chance…give it just 15 minutes, and see what happens. What have you got to lose?

Five Sensible Ways to Connect With The Present Moment

OK, I admit…I’m absolutely fascinated with everything there is to know about living in the present moment. There have been countless words written on the subject.

So from now on, I will be much more in tune to the rhythms surrounding my life. When it feels good, I’ll turn it up and milk it for all it’s worth.

What Would You Give To Be Happy?

Life is not fair. It never was nor will it ever be…done. Again, we all have our stories. Stop reliving the bad chapters and begin writing some new ones…you’re the author. If you don’t…all you’ll have left is to read others, all the while complaining…life isn’t fair.

As a matter of fact, for those of you silently protesting why should I make the first move, I would remind you of this fundamental fact. For every action there’s a reaction. And when that action’s rooted in love…let’s just say, you better hold on tight. Now do I have your attention?

Dreams Withering on the Vine? Time to Get Emotional.

Though if you choose to set your mind on what you want from life…your reality will reflect all you desire. The problem is if you don’t direct your thoughts, they’ll surely take the route of least resistance…worrying.

What I’m saying is…put a fire under your butt and burn a little for what you want…earn it…own it. Try calling on that God given free will and get emotional about it. Now is the time.
