Once Upon a Time, There was You, Making Up Stories…
/by Ted MorenoDo you have a habit of making up stories? We know some people who have a tendency to exaggerate the truth. We think we know what is real. But do we really? Something that happened to me this morning: I was out for my morning walk when a police officer pulled up alongside of me […]
Stop It! 43 Things To Stop Doing NOW
/by Ted MorenoStop saying “I hate _.” That makes you a hater. Stop acting like you’re the only one with problems. Stop complaining to people that can’t do anything about it. They don’t want to hear. Stop complaining if nothing can be done about it. Just stop complaining, already! Stop wishing that what is, isn’t and that what […]
Happiness and The Hypnosis of the Culture Part II
/by Ted MorenoHere’s a parable that I think speaks to the topic of happiness and the hypnosis of the culture. One day a monk stopped by the house of a wealthy man and found the owner busily filling a large steel chest with gold and silver coins. Puzzled, the monk asked him what he was doing. The […]
Happiness and the Hypnosis of the Culture, Part I
/by Ted MorenoYou might’ve heard the story of the guy walking down the street and sees another guy looking for something by the side of the road. “Hey” the first guy says,”What are you looking for?” “I’m looking for my keys”, says the other guy. “Let me help you!

/by Ted MorenoEver wonder why we wear masks on Halloween? Why we dress up and disguise ourselves as ghosts, witches and monsters? The modern holiday of Halloween has its roots in both the Celtic celebration of Samhain and the Christian holiday of All Saints Day. Samhain (“the end of summer”) celebrated the end of the “lighter half” of the year and the beginning of the “darker […]
You, on The Hero’s Journey
/by Ted MorenoI like Star Wars. “The Empire Strikes Back” is my favorite movie. When I hear the word transformation, I think about Luke Skywalker, and unless you’ve been living in a cave since 1977, you know that he is the hero of the first three Star Wars movies. Here’s a guy that goes from being a whiny, irresponsible young […]
What About The Voice in Your Head?
/by Ted MorenoYou have the Voice in your head. You probably know this. If you don’t, you should. You may be thinking: “What voice? What is he talking about? I don’t have a voice. Maybe he has a voice in his head, but I certainly do not have one in mine.” Well, that’s what I’m talking about. It’s […]
Would You Get an Oscar for Your Mind Movies?
/by Ted MorenoDid you catch The 87th Academy Awards last month? I saw The Birdman recently and really enjoyed it. If you look back at the winners of the Oscar over the past 20 years you’ll see that more than half of the winners for Best Motion Picture are about the ability of the human spirit to triumph over adversity and […]
Social Anxiety: How to Feel Comfortable Socially
/by Ted MorenoThe first time I went to a business mixer, I was so nervous about meeting other people, that after getting a drink, I went and stood in a corner next to another guy who also seemed to have the same problem. That’s where I stayed the whole night. Have you ever walked into a social […]
Why You Need Discomfort!
/by Ted MorenoOne hot summer day found me at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. I was on a river rafting trip with Arizona River Runners and 30 other people. My buddy Brian was driving the boat on this 9 day trip down the Colorado River. One evening after dinner while people were pitching their tents, one of the passengers […]
