The Wealthy Billionaire

People tend to agree with the idea that your inner world can match your outer world. However, I often test their belief when I tell the story of when I used to pollute my body with crap food, that within minutes, I literally experienced roommates actually polluting the house I was living in with toxic [...]

I recently moved to Ann Arbor Michigan from Jacksonville Florida.  Let me just say there was a huge difference.  I preferred the culture and energy of this vibrant midwest college town. The big difference mentally was whether to get myself happy first and then move or just move from where I was (very disconnected).  I [...]

It takes courage to step out from an hourly job, a salaried position, or government welfare to build your own business.  Some entrepreneurs and business owners had appropriate modeling from their parents and easily stepped into the role of entrepreneur, while others had little modeling in the area of entrepreneurship and had to teach themselves [...]

I hope this sums up [...]

Anything that bothers you is something going on with you..  If you were at peace with it, it wouldn’t both you…That’s a strong hit I know…but here me out…. Giving suggestions and telling others what they should do is kind of a way at trying to control them.  It’s imposing and ultimately doesn’t do much. [...]

My minister at Unity of Jacksonville once told me that when a rocket takes off it’s off course the majority of the time.  It’s only the finely tuned adjustments that are consistently made can the rocket reach its destination.  You don’t have to be perfect all at once, but you do have to be aware [...]

Many of you may not know that in a former life I was a Social Worker. Yup, a full fledged MSW.
