NATURAL LAW OF 80/20 Where does it come from? I am awake for about 18 hours of the day.  Six hours of sleep seems to be my sweet spot. I spend about ONE hour over at Iron Tribe Fitness in the mornings.  I spend ONE hour reading something for my personal growth after that.  I spend […]

NATURAL LAW OF IMAGINATION You better believe it. Being “in shape” was a goal of mine for as long as I could remember.  I hate to admit it, but my physical goals were all based around vanity.  A few years ago, these goals stopped inspiring me, though.

NATURAL LAW OF PERCEPTION What’s wrong with me? I’m a sucker for a great commercial, especially the steroid-using big brother of the commercial, the INFOMERCIAL.  You know why I LOVE infomercials and “tv shopping” like QVC?  They clearly show me that I have a PROBLEM. Then the show me that they have MY SOLUTION. When […]

Natural Law of Loss Move it or lose it… When I set goals, I usually think about what I want to GAIN or ADD to my life.  I think it’s a pretty healthy way to look at things, don’t you? But what I often find is that the DESIRE I have for those gains isn’t […]
