Dreams Beat the Rat Race

The rat race trains you to follow a specific path to be successful in life. However, the reward comes at the expense of your hopes and dreams. Once you realize that you are in control of your own success, your dreams will beat the rat race. Most of you have heard of the rats in the maze experiments. Researchers believed rats would learn to follow a specific path if it was reinforced by the reward of food at the end. A psychologist named Edward Chace Tolman believed this idea of behavioral learning was wrong and set out to prove his theory.

Job Stress: An Unnecessary Evil

Below is one of the graduate level papers I wrote in 2000 to address the pervasive topic of job stress – something most of us cannot escape. It’s rather long and academic in tone, but the information still applies today and is worth a read. I will note that the references will not address changes in law or recommendations made post-2000.

What Truly Sets You Free

I wish all of you a Happy Easter. Jesus was a gift to all who walk the face of the earth because God knew we would be unable to save ourselves from doing wrong. As humans it is inevitable that we would err in some way and we have in many – gluttony, greed, lust, envy, wrath, sloth and pride. At some point in our lives we have all committed at least one of these wrongs. All the injustice in this world is as a result of the negative things we have done to this planet, to others and to ourselves. Justice would dictate that we would have to face the consequences for these wrongs.

Don't Stand In Your Way

Sometimes barriers block your path to success, but many of these obstacles are easily overcome. Your most significant barrier might be you. If your fears take over, you could stand in your own way. Follow these steps to remove those hurdles. A few years back I went to a goal setting seminar offered by my friend Daniel Gutierrez. He recommended that you develop annual goals plan at least three months before the year begins. If you wait until New Year’s Eve to make your resolutions, you already start behind schedule. Keep this in mind when you decide to use the tools below.

You Aren't Better Than Me

Sometimes we must realize that certain people aren’t worth our time or effort.

Don’t hunt me down and shoot me, but I see 9/11 as a blessing in disguise. It helped us to remember our capacity for great things as humans. The loss, fear and anger we felt that day gave rise to something greater – compassion and community.r

So much of this world is negative, bad and wrong. However, if we choose to stress about this fact, we waste precious moments to experience happiness, joy and blessings.

Poem - Understanding

Love does not lie. We often give the honor of love to relationships, People, events, and things we treat as love. But we are often young – too wet behind the earsr To acknowledge the doubt that enters our minds. We know what a lie is. Yet we choose not to listen to the love inside of ourselves, And impulsively shower the undeserving and ill-preparedr With the glorious nature of love that defines who we are, Opening up our hearts and minds to deception and loss. Desire becomes our downfall. Our inbo need to experience love fullyr
