It Takes Obsession
I put a lot of thought into what really makes the difference between someone that succeeds at various pursuits in life and those who don’t. Many people try to get in shape, become wealthy, become leaders, master a new hobby or achieve success in any one of countless other endeavors, but most get sidetracked and…
Interesting People Make Interesting Choices
I’ve heard it said that all we are is the summation of the choices we’ve made. There’s a lot of truth to this. The decisions we make each day help form who we are. How do we take care of ourselves physically? What do we eat? Do we exercise and do so properly? Do we take…
People Who Do Versus People Who Judge
There are two types of people in this world: People who do (Doers) and People who judge (Judgers) Rarely is anyone both of these things. Interesting people are doers. They get things done.

Either way, your best years should be ahead of you no matter how old you are. Maybe you’re dwelling on pains from the past. This is counterproductive.…
Interesting People Don’t Get Overwhelmed Easily
I recently moved to a new place which is why I haven’t posted anything in about a week. Moving is a lot of work and involves a lot of tasks that need to be done in order to get things in your new place the way they were in your old place. The overall job…
Interesting Samurai Thought: “The Spirit of the Thing”
Miyamoto Musashi is considered by most to be the greatest samurai and Japanese swordsman to have ever lived. He lived from 1584 to 1645 winning 60 duels mostly against very deadly and skilled opponents. If he was a boxer or MMA fighter today that kind of record alone would make him legendary.
