In my last show, we were talking about. Life is a series of moments as opposed to a line. And one of the things I forgot to mention in that show is that. Hi, as an optimistic futurist, I always choose the positive way at each one of these structures early should try to choose a positive way at which one of these gestures and we always have the ability to do that we always have the ability to choos...

So I've been reading up on February in psychology and Adler. I forget his first name was a psychologist; basically, he was a contemporary of Freud and young. And he was basically one of the biggest names in psychology at the time, but we hardly ever hear from him because a lot of the stuff he wrote wasn't written for the psychoanalytic field. He was more written for the layperson. He was focused m...

The reality that there is no duality is something that we just created to get more eyeballs....

Self-help, or help of any kind, makes its money when its audience doesn't leverage the help itself.

And maybe I'd like to sell those one day even though I'm the kind of guy who just sits on the couch after a long hard day and relaxes and watches TV.
