The thing about working in a bigger company is that the issue of not being able to control everything that happens (because, to be honest, that's where I feel like I'm at in this business of half a dozen people right now), is going to get harder, not easier. If I am going to be … Continue reading A Management Truth

Honestly
This is less direct advice and more an honest reflection on my own dating life, largely for the edification of you single people out there. - Currently, I'm trying to do what feels right for me, regardless of other people's expectations and opinions. The thing that cheapens people's opinions is that they don't have to … Continue reading Honestly
How do you Attract Success?
I'm just asking for the sake of provoking thought. I was thinking about how the 'law of attraction' still seems like a rather nebulous concept. You mean, I could get rich by thinking myself to be rich? The frequencies of my thoughts will attract the riches? Man, I don't know.

It could be argued that this is purely a natural psychological phenomenon, but what if instead of being merely natural, the occurrence of this phenomenon was providential? What a … Continue reading Pilgrimage and Horizons of Self

And yet, in the face that … Continue reading Good News vs. Bad News
