How can I help myself succeed?

The truth is, although it is not impossible to change our lives alone, it is significantly less likely to be successful and is far more likely to be associated with suffering when we try to do it on our own. You see, because we are such an inherently social species, our success or failure is very dependent on who we surround ourselves with. Several people, including Tony Robins, have talked about how the 5 people we spend the most time with (whether we like them or not, wheth

How do I get to live MY life?

Life is about choices. What we prioritize vs not completely changes our lives! It determines if we are happy or miserable.

Finally get rid of that bad habit!

The most common way we harm ourselves is by PRETENDING it isn’t a big deal. We minimize how hurt or angry we are, pretend smoking or drinking just this time won’t make a huge difference, or having that last piece of cake, and then distract ourselves to keep it all at bay. We use distracting ourselves to help us pretend. It takes the edge off whatever feeling or insight we don’t feel ready to sit with. We distract ourselves by eating, watching NETFLIX, spending hours on socia

Why we believe lies

So how come we fall for the lies we are told? How do so many people cheat, lie gamble, commit fraud, and get away with harming others? It doesn’t make sense. Really the only people who should be able to dupe us are sociopaths, and they only make up about 1-3% of the population. So again- how come we fail to recognize so many lies? Let’s look at a real life example… I was recently invited to be the keynote speaker at an international conference. For those who are not in the co
