Now in its fourth year, the summit offers something most business events miss entirely: a chance to work on the person behind the company. Alex shares how the idea for the summit came from countless conversations where founders showed up to talk about strategy but ende...

He challenges the trap of incremental thinking and explains why real success comes from eliminating distractions, simplifying decisions, and focusing on what truly moves the needle. If most of your results come from a small fraction of your efforts, what would happen if you let go of everything e...

This week Mark and Allen break down the Episode that is, perhaps, the clearest homage to the West Wing in the entire series! Learning the Parks budget is going to be cut, Leslie convinces retiring Councilman Larry Pillner to reconsider. Ben is nervous about this action since they didn't discuss the possible ramifications. Ben's nervousness turns out to be justified when Pillner decides to, instead, cut the budget of an animal shelter instead, giving the animals only days to live.

Neon Owl Interview with TELYKast
I can’t remember the first time the name TELYKast popped into my head, but it was probably off of Instagram somewhere a little over a year ago. I do recall thinking that this duo was high energy and a whole bunch of awesome. After talking to these guys, I’d have to say that my Instagram-intuition was right. One from New York and the other from Texas, the two met in school and decided to start making music together. Their energy and dynamic just works, and I wholeheartedly believe that this duo has a couple tricks up their sleev...

Music and Miracles: The Voice For God
Voice Without Words
Click here for audio podcastSometimes I believe the Voice For God does not use words. Sometimes it is the music alone that transports us to that place where we feel the Oneness with our Source. One favorite is the Hallelujah Chorus by Handel. My favorite version is this one by The Mannheim Steamroller with the sound turned all the way up! (Mannheim Steamroller Music excerpt) This song embodies, in music, the Power and Majesty of All-That-Is. I usually get chills running up and down my body! Just imagine Christmas EVERY DAY FOREVER!
