Living in our strengths and passions to make the world a better place is ultimately satisfying. Under this category, we talk about how to align our lives with our strengths, passions, values and life experience. In short, we talk about how to live our calling.
Rena and I were talking the other day about how we can best support people to make their splash in the world as big as possible. We noticed a number of people thinking that they can get all the support they need by reading books, blogs and listening to podcasts. We feel sad for them because these […]
If you wanted to grow some vegetables, you’d plant a garden. Let’s assume it’s a traditional garden with real soil–not a fancy hydroponic thingy. You’d prep the soil and plan the seeds. Maybe you even set up a drip system so you didn’t need to water it manually. Could you stop there and assume you’d […]
If you ever have some good information to share, I’ve learned a key lesson in how to share that information better. Ready? Here it is: less is more. You’ve probably heard that before. I’ve heard it a lot, but I’m just really starting to understand it now. It’s easy to want to give lots of […]
One of my favorite radio stations–KLOVE–claims that it makes your workday fly by. It got me thinking. How many people are stoked to have their workday fly by? Do most people want their workday to hurry up so they can get on to doing something else they’d rather be doing? You see, I can’t relate […]

Do you have a dream you’ve been putting off? Maybe you’ve had a dream in your heart to make a big difference in people’s lives, but you see it coming way off in the future. How cool would it be if you could realize that dream now instead of years from now? I’ve seen people […]
An awesome way to make an impact in the world is in blossoming people. People are given a ton of crappy messages all throughout their life. People are told that they’re not good enough, not skilled enough, not good looking enough, not smart enough, and more. As a result, most people are all closed up. Where […]
