Ah winter has finally arrived, and it looks like it won’t be leaving any time soon! I was nervous for a bit there. Thought we were going to witness another Super El Nino equivalent to the one we had back in 1997. That year we didn’t know what to do, when the snow simply would not stick…
Remember that “2nd ever” timotheories interview I did with Andrew Wedman a while back? Well, I’ve been thinking a lot about Andrew’s outlook on life and business. His attitude is pretty straightforward – do more with less. As we make our way through this stressful season, it occurs to me that a lot of my normal…
Moonshine, white lightning or hooch if you prefer, is one of the ways that we could get alcohol if we want, and in times of great restriction like The Prohibition era, it was probably the best way. But we don’t really need moonshine anymore, now that there are so many other kinds of alcohol out there,…
Every year most North Americans set our clocks back an hour in the fall to get more daylight during the winter months, and as a result, that first day of daylight savings time really feels nice. But then it really hurts in the summer when you lose an hour. What a stupid practice. It doesn’t benefit everyone,…
Have any of you experienced serendipity recently? Or ever for that matter? No, I’m not writing about the John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale lukewarm romcom of the early 2000’s, I’m referring to the phenomenon where you get lucky and find something of value when you weren’t looking for it and more importantly, weren’t expecting it. I mentioned…
Everyone has at least one long-standing friend. I count myself lucky to have many friends that I’ve known for a decade or longer, but having a life long friend is something special. While he and I have never really shared the exact same set of hobbies, and our political and spiritual views haven’t been known…
Okay folks, let’s talk turkey. It’s Wednesday and that means I need to share some wisdom with you. Wisdom about self-improvement. Big topic, I know, and one which I can probably spend a countless number of posts on in the future. *Hint* I’m going to *hint* Oh come on now, you know I can’t keep…
What do you know about mind control dear readers? Daresay I say it, but I hope the answer is nothing. Not because your minds have been wiped, but because it’s a really weird and controversial topic and I’d rather stay away from conspiracy theories if I can help it. But they are theories… So maybe…
Driving on the highway can do a lot to clear your head I’ve found. Especially when you are all alone. And sometimes that silence forces your mind to work through ideas that you’ve been ignoring for weeks. I’m sure you’ve heard metaphors about the highway before dear readers, and the common associations of a highway…
I’ve been thinking about what I should write for today pretty much all of my waking hours this past week. Sometimes I chew on a theory for months (anticipating the date to share it with you), other times the theory appears in a flash of light. And sometimes theories just work themselves out naturally in the…
