One of our favorite concepts from Dan Ariely in Predictably Irrational: the BEST way to create self control and eliminate procrastination is pre-commitment. It’s the ultimate decision making tool – say you’re going to do it beforehand – so when the time comes and you have a decision to make as to whether or not […]

Natural Law of 3’S Third time’s a charm… I am privileged to get to talk to hundreds of parents of high school and collge students every year. My goal is to get those parents to send their student to our youth success program, Eagle University.  In talking with the parents if they seem hesitant about […]

The Natural Law of COMPENSATION Do good, get results. Of course, I have “favorite” Natural Laws.  This happens to be one of those because of the results I have seen from using it in my own life.  This law reminds us that in nature what we do comes back to serve us in some way later […]
