    Ep. 67 - Well, That's Interesting

    This episode ties together the idea of controlling the space between a stimulus and our response, and the idea that nothing around us has any meaning except the meaning we assign it. And I talk about one way we can start to eliminate the negatives around us, by seeing them as neutral instead.

    Ep. 66 - Perspective: Use It or Lose It

    In this episode, I discuss a passage from the book "Illusions" by Richard Bach. And I discuss how that passage relates to both the Buddha AND to Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich." And I start with a shameless plug for my other podcast, Illusions, available wherever you get your podcasts.

    Ep. 65 - Life is Too Darn Short to Argue

    In this episode I talk about another verse from the Dhammapada (loosely translated as The Path to Truth) and talk about how we can put this verse into action in our lives and make our own lives, and the world around us, a better place to live. My gratitude goes out to Anchor.fm for sponsoring this episode.

    Ep. 64 - Only Love Can End Hatred

    I recently started studying the Dhammapada, the teachings of the historical Buddha. And today I discuss verse 5, which teaches that only love can put an end to hatred. I'm sure you've heard that message from hundreds of other people. But taking a look at the world around us, we can easily see the message needs to be heard again. And again.

    Ep. 63 - No Such Thing as Doing Nothing

    In this episode, I offer my perspective on the idea of doing nothing. I don't think it's possible. I think we can do good things, or not so good things, but even if we're very successful at doing nothing, we're still doing something.

    Ep.62 - Choose a New Past to Create a New Future

    After reading "You can always choose a new future, or a new past" today (thank you to Richard Bach, in "Illusions") I realized I can look at my past in a completely different way. And THAT can help me create a whole new, fully empowered future. I hope you'll join me on the journey.

    Ep. 61 - Why bother living an uphappy life?

    With a HUGE hat tip to Richard Bach and The Messiah's Handbook...this simple little question, "Why bother living an unhappy life?" has wrecked me today. This simple little question has really grabbed me by the shoulders and shaken me around and made me re-think whether or not I'm willing to continue settling for what I'm settling for. Maybe it will do the same for you.

    Ep. 60 - Stop Arguing with Yourself Against Yourself

    "Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours." - Richard Bach in "Illusions." This is the topic of today's episode. And I also have an idea on how we can stop arguing for our own limitations.
