I have been experiencing a lot of resistance lately. Not in the form of tangible obstacles, more like an internal tug o' war. I'm certainly not a resistance newbie, quite the opposite actually. I happen to be a resistance veteran. I have been engaged in a three-way...
I purchased The Desire Map on December 13, 2012. At the time, I had no idea that this book would not only change the way I approached my life, but also my way of being in the world. The Desire Map is revolutionary, to say the least. <--- not an exaggeration. So...
I talk to a lot of people. I have never met a person that I didn't want to ask a question. I ask about their lives... Where are you from? Where are your parents from? What do you do for fun? How do you make a living? Do you love it? That last question catches most...
Several years ago I prayed one of the most dangerous prayers one could ever vocalize. At the time, I hadn't put too much thought into this request. I mean I was serious, but I wasn't very specific. Looking back, I'm not sure how meant it. It wasn't premeditated, in...
You arrived to this planet complete. The slate was completely clean, no blemishes or hang-ups. You are equipped with the limitless potential and a plethora of possibility. Somewhere along the way you forget who you are. You have allowed the opinions of others to jade...

I often hear people refer to trust as something that occurs outside of themselves. A transaction that takes place between two or more people. We've been conditioned to think that people must "earn" our trust. But I don't believe the hype. I don't think that we have to...
You ever notice that when people feel guilty (especially if they're lying) they get the worse case of verbal diarrhea? All of a sudden they begin to answer questions that you haven't even asked. Their heart begins to race, beads of sweat pepper their brow, and any...
"To thine own self be true" - William Shakespeare February is the month when Cupid gets to spread love far and near. Roses are plucked and arranged by the truckload. Chocolate gets melted, molded, and devoured. Men everywhere are given a golden opportunity to buy...
Traditionally speaking, most romantic relationships are between two people. Or are they? I believe that there is always a third party involved. Party number three is usually uninvited, but it doesn't have to be that way. You can choose your own third wheel, or go...
"You're imperfect and you are hardwired for struggle, but you are worthy of love." - Brene Brown This is one of my favorite quotes, not because it's so profound, but because it's so true. Even still it took me a long time to really get this. On a fundamental level I...
