I used to be somewhat envious of people who had high energy, who seemed to accomplish things while I was still thinking about it, who moved through life like a whirlwind. I attributed to them as having more confidence, more…
Mind drives body
I am currently teaching Mental Laws in my Self-Discovery program. One of those laws is “Mind drives body.” (Michael Deaton’s “A Book on Mind Management.”) Little did I know as I went out for my daily walk that I would…
What do you want?
Last week’s newsletter, “Missed Opportunity,” struck a chord with many of you and made me think of where I was 20 years ago, emotionally. I didn’t understand why, when asked what I wanted, I was not able to respond. Invariably,…
Missed Opportunity!
The other day, my young daughter missed out on an opportunity because of something many of us do to ourselves. We focus on the “hows” and the “shoulds” and the “what ifs.” We make the mistake of letting our minds…
You are worth it!

Spending time recently with one of my young daughters and her friend, I asked them what makes them happy? They simultaneously responded, “Food!” After we all had a good laugh at their first response, I asked, “Why?” They replied, “It…
Amazing Things Happen When You Set the Day!
I had an amazing experience this last week, all because I set the intention for my day! As part of my morning routine I declare, out loud, what I want to experience that day, not in specifics, but in the…
How do you define success?
A few months ago, shortly after the holiday season, I was playing “Just Dance” with my children. “Just Dance” is a dance video game where the participant’s movements are recorded and scored by how close they match the movements of…
Memorial Day
I was blessed to grow up with a wonderful father who loved God, who loved his wife (my mother), who loved his family (me and 7 siblings), and who loved his country! I knew that on many of the National…
New Years in May?
New Years in May? No, I’m not talking about goals. I recently read an article by Leo Babauta. “How to Make the Most of the Fresh Start of a New Year.” Even though we are well into the year, I…
