Ask not what you are getting from the world but, rather, what you are giving to the world.

People are remarkably bad at remembering long lists of goals. I learned this at a professional level when trying to get my high-performance coaching clients to stay on track; the longer their lists of to-dos and goals, the more overwhelmed and off-track they got. Clarity comes with simplicity.

Motivation comes from effort.

To me, meditation is simply silencing or focusing the mind.

Why having been endowed with the courageous heart of a lion, do we live as mice?

Do yourself and your family a favor: Decide right now that you will write a self-help book someday. I'm serious. A self-help book is a great way to capture what you think makes a good person, a good life and a good world. It's also a "forever document" that you can pass down to future generations. We need more people sharing positive messages and books with the world. Why not be one of those people?

Drama in our lives is the greatest indicator that we're not focused on meaningful goals. On the path to purpose you don't have time for drama.
