For People Pursuing Freedom

The Essence of Time Management

Time has always baffled me. Questions like… Where does the past go? Where does the future come from? Why can we only act in the present moment? Why are people judged by their past when they can do nothing to change it? Since we can’t change the past, why are we not judged by the [...]


I hope this doesn’t offend you… but… Are you weary of the same old shit in the blogosphere? I am. A lot of posts out there are mind numbing. It’s becoming an echo chamber. Most days I look through my feed reader and I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, heard it before. Give me something new. [...]


Free Personal Development Material

My friend Lyman Reed has put together a fantastic new personal development site. The best part, everything on it is free. In fact, I like this site so much, I want everyone to find it. The dirty little secret about personal development materials is that there is very little new about any of the expensive [...]


Both these items are outstanding. Healing our World: In an Age of Aggression by Dr. Mary J. Ruwart may be the most important book written in the last quarter century. If you struggle to stay positive in a world which seems to breed endless war, poverty, and violence, read Dr. Ruwart’s free book and you [...]


Why is it so Hard to Change?

I wrote a guest post for Craig Harper titled, Why is it so Hard to Change? Hop over to his site and read it. I put a lot of time and research into this so I think you’ll enjoy it. It’s one of the better Personal Development posts I’ve written. I want to thank Craig [...]


Ego and Breaking All the Rules

The War on Ego – By Steve Pavlina. Speaking of egos, before I write anything about this post, I want to say that I haven’t linked to Steve Pavlina in over year. It isn’t because I don’t like his stuff. I love his stuff. I noticed that he rarely links to any of the bloggers [...]


Do You Know How Good You Have It?

You don’t know how good you have it. That’s what my mother used to say when I’d whine or complain. I used to hate it when she said that because I didn’t know what it meant. My only perspective on life, was my perspective. That’s the only perspective any of us have. We can try to take another perspective, but it is [...]


RIP Gary Gygax

Gary Gygax died today. I don’t know if that means much to this audience.  But when I read it I felt a deep sense of loss and felt the need to honor the man who’s creations meant so much to me for so many years. Gary, I wish I could speak at your funeral. You [...]


This article, I Think You’re Fat, is potentially life changing. I like to think of myself as an honest open person, but in reality I am a strategic liar. We all are. You’d admit it too, if you were honest. In the 1800s authorities believed fictional novels were destroying the youth, by the 1950s and [...]


What on Earth is Wrong With Gravity?

I found this short scientific documentary from the BBC about the mysteries of gravity to be fascinating. It is humbling. We know so little about where we are. Seth Godin tells us how he writes so many great blog posts… Does the possibility of time travel capture your imagination? Then you’ll love this article. Badassdad [...]
