2020-12-1815 minYour Amazing Life!The Epidemic and Tragedy of FailureFailure seems to be something that people are thinking about right now. If you are like me you failed millions of times, it is a part of life. As a society, we have now labeled failure and poisoned it true experience, we have made it menacing, something that is bad, or unwanted. This might have started in school. An F or a failing grade was considered unacceptable. Now at school an F probably meant that you were not putting in any effort. If one puts in little or no effort you get nothing back. We should put effort into...

2020-12-0815 minYour Amazing Life!Power Up to Rise Above ShameI made a mistake this week. It happens, right? The error I made is not the issue here; the problem was in the feeling that accompanied the mistake. It was not guilt trying to move me away from the blunder, No this was SHAME!

2020-10-0900 minYour Amazing Life!The Three Part Secret to Bring Revolutionary Success to Your LifeThere are 3 parts we need for successful action in our lives. We as humans, are based on the social settings and beliefs in which we live and that we adopt. If you doubt this there is plenty of science to back it up.
