“My life is in the hands of any fool who is able to make me lose my temper” One of the things I’m most thankful for is that anger/temper has not been a huge struggle for me.

I woke up this morning with a voice in my head.  A bodybuilding motivational track was on repeat. “Forget everything in life. What are you playing for? What’s your passion? What’s your prize?” I couldn’t get these questions out of my mind as I stepped into the shower, took buddy for a walk and came […]

I recently watched a documentary about Nikola Tesla; world-renowned scientist, visionary and inventor. He seemed to have lived many lifetimes in the course of his own life; great seasons of success, public recognition, failure, scorn, recognition and refusal were all dealt Nikola with no-holds-barred intensity. He went through periods of intense seclusion, feeding nothing but […]

On my website has been the phrase “Committed to success through integrity and innovation” for several years. One might find it odd to mix a technical term, such as ‘innovation’ with a more heartfelt word, like ‘integrity’. I believe the two of them to be equally important to each other. Life without integrity is flaky […]

There’s a certain trend that desperately needs to be reevaluated, redefined, or simply forgotten. “Doing your time” is the simple explanation of putting somebody through undue hard time/labor within the realms of a certain relationship; business, personal, fraternal or otherwise.

Earlier this year, I realized my mind was a dwelling place for negative energy and thought. There was a part of me that attributed it to the circumstances I was in, rather than the notion that my circumstances were a result of my thought.

Sometimes you blink and wake up to find the day has gone by without notice. Other times, you blink and realize the past 8-9 months of your life have rushed past you at breakneck speed. One thing that has remained constant in the past year is the mentality that ‘every day gets better’. I was […]
