Beyond High-Sounding Ideas
I am a student of life, a philosopher, a teacher, a writer and in recent years an inspired entrepreneur who wants to spread the gospel of empowerment through self-improvement to all.
Acting With Principle
Are We Becoming More Civilized?
Sixty-six years have passed since the Pacific War and the good guys and the not-so-good guys say they are keeping the peace by arming to the teeth.
Taking Things Personally
Hey, we all make mistakes and then take things too personally. As my drill sergeant in Air Force Reserve training some 38 years ago said: “Never assume. When you assume, you make an ass out of you or me.”
Reflections of a Birthday Gone By
While everyone buys into darkness and puts their collective heads in the sand, this can and will be your breakthrough year. When things look darkest, opportunity looms around every corner and on the other side of every deep valley.
One-Upmanship Leaves Us Morally Bankrupt
Enough is always enough – that is the measure of success, not the dollar value of our possessions.
Laws Are Unnecessary…
Laws are, for the most part, a Gestapo tactic used by those in power. The first step in trashing these excesses to develop an awareness of them. Hopefully, I have done my part.
Reflections From Our Daily Doings
Most impressions we have of people are right simply because other people feel and begin to react to our vibrations well before we utter a syllable.

When You Fall Down Seven Times…
Times are tough, we hear over and over again. But the truth is that character is not built when everything is going hunky-dory.
Used To Be’s Produce No Honey
Stop trying to impress people with the old, unreal you that may occasionally make you feel good or impress those unfamiliar with your past. To ruminate about the used-to-be’s of life will surely paralyze you in the here and now. They never ever produce a a drop of honey.
The Cost of Ignorance
Our results in life are usually very scientifically predictable. That is both good and bad news depending on our willingness to change and to shape up.
The Fraility of the Poor and Desperate Opportunity Seeker
We must be judgmental of dishonest people in order to protect the integrity and profound effect the Internet can have on eliminating abject poverty through education and training.
Beware of the Wolves
Ignorance is not bliss. Being exposed to the potpouri of human ideas and values can be a spark for change, for tolerance, for community. The worldwide web allows us to scrap intolerance and ignorance and replace these negatives with synergy and positive growth.
A Picture That Makes A Difference
Icons can be powerful in keeping your life and your morality in check. But if you have no idea of who you are and what you stand for, it is easy and maybe inevitable that you will fall for any fool strong enough to lead you.
Matrix
Matrix is not just a movie. It is a marketing style of Xs and Os and diagrams of exponential financial growth to the outer reaches of the Black Hole.
