What is ego? In the Oxford dictionary under psychoanalysis, the ego is defined as the part of the mind that mediates between the conscious and the unconscious and is responsible for reality testing and a sense of personal identity.

Honesty, integrity, and the willingness to go above and beyond. It al...

Is it possible to have perfect memory? It's said that there is not enough scientific evidence to prove that we are capable of retaining memories forever.

Yes, sometimes we forget why we walked into the kitchen but the memory is a muscle that can be worked out and used as one of...

Resilience: The ability to bounce back from adversity and setbacks. Every successful person knows that to arrive at an end goal there will be challenges along the way. We fail our way to success.

A Soulful Elevati...

According to History it was the ancient Babylonians that were the first to make New Year’s resolutions.

Tendencies. What are they and why do we have them?

Others have a tendency to lean towards behaviors that are more likely to help them succeed reg...

Join Mike and Will for a great discussion with in-studio guest, Evan...

Discipline requires that we give some attention to every facet of our lives. Are we eating right? Are we exercising enough? Are we filling our minds with content that fulfills us and propels us forward? Is there enough self-care being implemented in all the important areas that these machines are demanding from us daily?
