The verdict is in. For sustainable results and lasting success, it’s important to make the actions you take to accomplish your goals a practice and not a checkbox. Some people resist this truth.

I recently listened to a Brian Johnson podcast in which he talked about how the way we talk affects our lives. While I had heard this before and believed it to be true, something was different about hearing it this time. For the rest of the day, I paid really close attention to the words that came out of my month and the things I said to myself silently. I was blown away by the amount of “victim speak” I did.

The principles I follow today are powerful, but they aren’t new. They are quite common. I’ve heard them my entire life.

I am fascinated by the time lapse concept used to create visual art and tell a story. In photography and videography, time lapse is when a scene is captured at a normal frame rate, then played back at a higher speed. The recording of the scene can take place over days, weeks, years or longer. Then it’s played at rates as high as 30 times faster than actual recording time. As a viewer, you see changes in the subject within seconds and minutes. This technique has been applied to nature films, mainstream movies and more. And now amateurs around the world are using it to express their creativity. [Read more…] about Time Lapse
I believe the level of happiness you experience depends on how you see yourself and others. If you understand that we are all imperfect beings on a journey, you tend not to judge people or yourself if you stumble from time to time. Conversely, if you think mistakes are unforgivable, whether yours or others, you condemn people if they fail. Choose to view people and the world through loving eyes and you will see goodness in everyone and everything. [Read more…] about See The Good In People
