Throughout my life, I have learned many lessons that have become more like core mottoes in my life. A very meaningful and kind of a big deal one is: When People Walk Away From You, Let Them Go. You see, I used to be very ATTACHED co-dependent. It was the kind of “loyalty” that forces …

The last Sunday of July is Father’s Day in my home country and August 10th is my dad’s birthday. I miss my DAD. He is my HERO in so many ways. He always finds a way to LIFT me up, CHEER me up, replace my tears with GIGGLES and SMILES, and help me see my …

On the flip side, one of my most recent joys in life is seeing my 10-month-old daughter’s grin when she looks at herself in the mirror, in awe of herself. It seems that in this situation, the question “is …
I am passionate about learning and teaching, and I have discovered that when you teach you to learn, and when you learn, you expand your capacity to teach. That’s why I love public speaking and attending conferences, seminars, workshops… and all types of live events. I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Arizona and …
I cried so much when I found out Casey Kasem died… It was June 15th, 2014, on Father’s Day. Even though I never met him, I truly felt like I knew him. He was a radio legend that hosted American Top 40 for many decades, yet to me, he was sort of a personal friend …
The late Jim Rohn once said “You Can’t Hire Someone Else To Do YOUR Push Ups For YOU” and I not only agree with it, I’m going to say you can’t blame someone else because you didn’t do them. Here’s the deal: Our daily decisions determine our direction and our destination. We shape ourselves by …
