God appeared to the man in a dream, asking him to save the world.
The man promised the Lord he would.
When he woke up, he resolved to get to work immediately.
The Blessing of the Enemy
Do you consider some people in your life to be enemies?
Maybe these are people that get in the way of what you want?
Like, if they weren’t in your life, things would be much better—you’d be much better?
Adapt the Story You Tell Yourself or Perish
Over the last 20-30 years, we’ve experienced tremendous technological advances that have revolutionized our ways of life.
First came the Internet. Then mobile. And now blockchain technology.
We’re in the midst of some incredible changes, and we’re seeing the changes play out on both the micro and macro levels.
In times like these, people either adapting to developments or they’re left behind—with regret.
Why Success Leads to Depression
The entrepreneurial lifestyle is portrayed as a highly sought-after way of life in modern society.
People who don’t even run businesses put the tagline in their social media bio and begin calling themselves entrepreneurs—not really knowing what it truly means to be one.

Control Your Attention To Control Your Life
There is a Chinese curse that says “May he live in interesting times.”
Whether you’re a fan of this era or not, you can’t deny that these are definitely interesting times.
Although we’re in the midst of disorder and uncertainty, we’re also experiencing the most creative time in the history of recorded mankind.
Remembering the Inevitability of Death
“Time is against us”
We’ve all heard that one before.
Probably felt it, too.
Things pile up, and with so much to do, it sometimes seems impossible to stay balanced.
The clock keeps ticking, though. And life goes on—at least, until it doesn’t.
The Force of Rationalization
Have you recognized that “thing” within you that doesn’t want you to have the “good life”?
It’s there, within each of us, and it has the influence to take control in such a way where it convinces us it knows what’s best.
The Myth of “I’ll Be Happy When…”
One of the greatest myths underlying the common sense of our society is the idea that happiness comes from things we get.
From a young age, we’re trained into the “I’ll be happy when…” attitude.
