Ideas Matter
Too often we say we like a policy or something that is going on in the world depending on if it serves our interest or not. Too seldom do we say "It's not right" when it serves our interest. For example, if someone shows up at your front door to…
"Affectionate Asskicker"
Having someone who we know cares about us, but still calls us on our crap and challenges us to be better is a good thing. You can't pull anything on this person - and they know when you are making excuses and when you can do better - and they…
Breaking the law by doing nothing.
Ideas matter. We say we live in a free society. We say we cherish our freedom. We need laws to protect us from others violating our rights, property, and freedom. So if I hurt someone or take their stuff, I am breaking the law and can be punished. But what…
Will you exercise your body today?
Heart rate up? Sweat? Moving weight? It doesn't matter how old you are or what shape you are in now. Plan to be healthy in the future - now is the time, not then.
The benefits of adversity in your life.
I believe those that have not had much adversity in their lives are at a handicap compared to those that have. Adversity makes us believe in ourselves and raises the bar for what we know we can handle. We will try tougher things and have greater self-confidence. "Prosperity is a…
…if you take care of you for me.
"I'll take care of me for you, if you take care of you for me." - Jim Rohn If everyone took care of themselves and their families well, a lot of problems would go away. Agree?
The WILLS and the WILL NOTS
I was walking at a fall fair and I saw this guy with a T-Shirt that said: "I will when others won't". The guy was jacked. He obviously spent a lot of time in the gym. Good for him. Life is an opportunity - especially in this age in this…
How are you intelligent?
I've talked about how everyone has a superpower or two or three. My superpower is not the same as yours. We have to find out what it is and do something (career, hobby, project) where we can use it and develop it further so we can do great things. The…
Today is all we've got.
Today is yesterday's tomorrow, and it's here now. Tomorrow never comes because when it gets here, it's today. Days are the building blocks of a life. A great day is a building block of a great life. The more great days, the better the life. "Each single day is all…

Definitely agree. In order to make this truly successful, it is important to have fixed stars to navigate by so that the decisions can be made and subordinated to principles that truly impact the right things.
Hey Larry,
I wish more people would think this way. Then they wouldn’t have to worry about waking up in the morning and regret some of their choices.
Great reminder! I’m learning every day. Thank you!
As a Christian I look at things differently than a lot of other people and one of the universal characteristics of every person from the day they are born is that they are selfish. Our job as parents is to convert that selfish child into a self-less adult. Self-less doesn’t mean we don’t care for ourselves but that we put other’s needs ahead of our own. The reality is that you can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want. (Zig Ziglar) It is also true that there is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn’t mind who gets the credit. (Ronald Reagan) If we were guided by the principles above then we would consider our actions differently.
