 A Job, A Yacht, and a Very Expensive Car In 1987 I had a sales job that involved going into people’s homes and trying to sell them stuff. It was a very tough gig. It was the kind of deal where the managers of the business wore flashy jewelry, drove flashier cars and yelled a lot. I decided […]

How Selfish Are You? Part II

Something has come to my attention lately that I find quite astonishing and frankly, disturbing.  In fact, I’m not even sure how to write about this because it cuts pretty close to the bone for most people.  What is astounding to me is the number of people I come across, not just in my practice but in […]

Who Do You Have To Be To Get What You Want?

In last weeks post (Opening the Door to Success:GOALS) I discussed how to create goals. You take a desire, you turn it into a goal by writing it down using the SMART formula, and you make a plan.

Opening the Door to Success:GOALS (Guarantee Overcoming Anything Limiting Success)

  My four-year old daughter who I call The Chick asked me the other day when she could ride her new tricycle. “Tomorrow” I replied. “But Dad” she exclaimed, Tomorrow’s a long time!”  If only that were still true. If you’re like most people, the things you were going to do tomorrow keep piling up as quick […]

The Key to Success Is…

  Before I tell you what I think the key to success is, let me tell you a story. My wife and I were shopping for a house in early 2009.  We had been looking for more than a couple of years. It was at times a grueling experience. We often had to do this after work, dragging our two […]

What Lies Dormant Within You?

When I was living in Arizona, I tried to make it a point to come to Los Angeles every year at the holidays to see my family for three or four days. I’d stay at my parent’s house; the house in which I grew up. During the day, both my folks would be at work, and […]
