Your Ticket Out of “Crappy-Land” – Get Through a Bad Day
“What we resist, persists.” — Carl Jung Circumstances, real or imagined, can send us on a downward spiral. We can fight it, trying all the usual aphorisms: “look at the bright side”… “remember all the good” in an effort to play “keep away”, but sometimes we can’t seem to avoid that sign post up ahead:…
Courage ≠ Fearless – Mars, Uranus, Pluto T-Square
There is no Courage without Fear. When I turned 40 I got my driver’s license. It took me three tries to pass the road test. Terrible driver? Not really… terriFIED. Then I went out and bought a Mini Cooper S, yeah the turbo… stick shift. Why am I telling you this? I was terrified to…

When is Self-Help Procrastination?
“They” say you should “Let people know who you are on your blog,” so here goes… (This post is likely to piss some of you off, but then that’s the risk I take in being “real”, eh?) I sat down today to begin to write my first ever free e-book. Immediately, I got lost… I…
Healing Your Relationship With Yourself
[buzzsprout episode=”43156″ player=”true”] Perhaps it’s not a coincidence that my top two most popular pod casts were released three days apart: “Procrastination” and “If you can’t trust yourself, who can you trust?” I believe that both concepts reflect a society-wide betrayal of “self”.
