    More hours in the the day

    I've been finding that lately there aren't enough hours in the day to get things done. I try to budget my time properly, make sure I stay focused but when I'm getting into bed each night, I feel like I could've done more. Now usually it's something minor that was missed as I typically get all...

    Professional Success

    I think that you had a life changing experience but your vision of success has remained the same. After someone does what you did, they will need to realign their vision so it runs parallel with their improved version of themselves. You're going from one extreme to the other while trying to...

    Optimistic Thinking

    I think it's one of life's greatest lessons and consequently one of its hardest because life's not easy. I once heard this quote, "life's a bitch because if it were easy, it'd be called a slut." I think for most people optimism is a learned characteristic. It's rare for someone to be born with a...

    Breaking Up Post Break Up

    Coming up next month will be one year since my ex-girlfriend and I broke up. It was the hardest breakup we've both gone through so we've tried to be friends since walking away was impossible. As of this week we decided we couldn't even really be friends. This is the first time where I've...

    Self Confidence

    Well I don't think that you're alone in that department. We all get down on ourselves from time to time, and we all inherently have moments of self doubt. One thing that has truly helped me is therapy. I'm not sure if that is a resource available to you but I highly recommend it. There is...

    Biographies that Inspire

    I'm not sure if this is pertinent to you but after I finished George Carlin's autobiography "Last Words" and it changed my whole perspective on stand up comedy. As someone struggling to find my way as a comedian in NYC, this book became my bible. I always looked up to Carlin and thought his...

    Dreaming a dream

    People say that if you're doing something you love you never work a day in your life. So we then dream of doing something we love right? But how many people are actually successful in achieving that? Better yet, if they aren't successful in that journey, are they considered a failure? I think...

    The Value of Patience

    Patience is something that's miraculous and can help create a magical moment out of nothing. As I've gotten older I've learned to be more patient, which in turn has helped me become more appreciative of life's little moments. It comes with experience, comes with a set of unspoken rules, comes...

    "Don't let yesterday take up too much of today."

    This is such a great quote. Life is short and precious, and you can't afford to live it looking in the rear view mirror. When we dwell on the past, we miss what's right in front of us. By focusing on the past, we are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. People need to live life in the present and...

    Starting a Podcast

    That's awesome man. Podcasting is huge and there such a big market for them now. Stick with content specific to your target audience and stay consistent. If it's a weekly then be sure to produce an episode every week. Maybe pick up a white board for ideas so you can visualize and schedule the...

    Unsure about my future.

    The first time you should do is breath. Take a deep breath and a step back to really asses the situation. When we feel overwhelmed, we tend to make rash choices and unfortunately you're not in a position to choose incorrectly. Also why beat yourself up for past decisions? Things happen. But life...

    Using the rock bottom as a springboard

    I never understood how sad I was on the inside until I hit bottom. I never understood how frustrated I was until I hit bottom. I never understood that I needed to make a change in my life until I hit bottom. When it happened I wasn't sure what was happening. I had this wave of sadness and...

    Handling Being Overwhelmed

    When I am feeling overwhelmed or anxious, I project myself to a place where I felt the most calm, the beach. Now this only has to be for maybe thirty seconds but it totally puts me at ease. I envision myself under a palm tree looking out onto the ocean. I've learned through doing yoga to also...
