You may be thinking, “I wish I had time to relax but there is just too much to do.” And my guess is that there always is and always will be. I had a client a number of years ago who was working hard to keep his business afloat. He would try to get up…
“Too old for what,” you may ask. Certainly the answer can vary. Am I too old to go for a walk? I hope not. How about too old to be a gymnast in the Olympics? For me – definitely. Let’s say you are 40 years old – are you too old to play in the…
You may be thinking – “Energy – what’s that?” I watch my grandkids, who have seemingly endless reservoirs of energy and wonder how can I get some of that? Well, being 4 years old would help. But the truth is, we don’t have to settle for no or low energy all of the time. Now…
The well-known musician, Yo Yo Ma, in a recent quote, said, “The pandemic accentuated that part of me that says why I am useful.” Am I useful for anything? I’m only useful if I feel I can respond to need.” There are those who quickly respond to needs, almost as soon as they are expressed,…

In recent research, called the Life Story Project, physicist Brian Wecht made some interesting discoveries about the transitions people experience. Whether someone exits the military, loses a job, moves to another town, discovers they have a neurological disease, or learns they have been betrayed by a best friend – they have all experienced transitions. That…
You may recall that last time we began to take a look at the ways many have given up on their dreams that were once so important to them. As they have aged, they have lost their passion and zeal for things that once mattered. I mentioned that our real priorities are not so much…
When we were 20 years old, most all of us had big hopes and dreams for our future. They probably included relationships, careers, travel, etc. Yet the sad thing is that I regularly see clients in my office at 50 or 60, who have become jaded and cynical at the very notion of dreams they…
