“I oughta have, do, or be…” Really? If you oughta, you woulda. But you don’ta, so whatcha talkin’ about? We all have have part of us that thinks we deserve more than what we have. We don’t. We have exactly what we’re committed to. And the sooner you stop living in that fantasyland and start telling yourself the truth, the sooner you get unstuck… … And the sooner you can get on with creating the version of you that you’ve always dreamed of!

Want to make a difference? Make it PERSONAL!
All the talk about how shitty the world is – how we’re disconnected, divided, polarized, angry, impatient, unforgiving, etc – is NOT making the world a better place. Sure, it’s raising awareness. But ask yourself a question… ARE YOU ALREADY AWARE?If the answer is YES… then you don’t need to get more aware. You know what you need to do? Make it PERSONAL. What are YOU going to do. TODAY. To make it different in YOUR life, with YOUR spouse, with YOUR family, with YOUR colleagues.How are YOU going to be more patient, forgiving, understanding, kind, compassionate, vulnerable?When you get…

And how long does it take you to change your thinking? A split second. — That doesn’t mean you’ll all of a sudden WANT to.

There is an incredible draw to wallowing in the misery, pity, doubt, anxiety, fear, shame cloud that you’re in. — Don’t let it win….
TGIF? How about TGIM?
You spend 80% of your day working doing something that pays the bills… but brings you no joy, no satisfaction, no aliveness. Why? Because it’s the way you’ve always done it, you’re good at it, it’s easy. But happiness? I don’t think so. — What if you could spend 80% of your days doing something you loved, that happened to also be how you earned a living? — Who knows… perhaps instead of TGIF, it would be Thank Goodness It’s Monday!
