Gratitude is a superpower, and Joe’s 2-minute practice here can change your life. I used to resent my work. Now I absolutely love it. Because I got intentionally grateful. That gratitude changed the way I showed up to the world, which then changed how the world responded

I took a week off X. No writing or business was done. But I don't feel even a little bad about it. Spent the week celebrating the 4th and my birthday with friends, family, and, of course, this lovely lady. My heart is overflowing with gratitude.

I just turned 34, and I celebrated by playing in a ball pit. As the years race by, I feel pressured to get older. So I fight harder to stay young. Sure, my hair is turning gray, and my ankle hurts. But 33 taught me a few secrets on staying young at 34. 1. Give Yourself

I kicked off 34 by slamming my foot into a coffee table. Maybe a bit too literal in “kicking off” my birthday. But, as I writhed in pain, all I could do was laugh. Another year around the world, and I still have the spatial awareness of a blind puppy. But I have something far

We laugh and shake our heads at rich people chasing more money. But what about us… …chasing a little more validation? …a few more followers? …a bit more income? …or that next level of self-mastery? Anything can be an addiction. Don’t let success be a prison.

I woke up and didn’t know what to worry about. So I thought about a subscription I forgot to cancel. Couldn’t get a refund for it either. I successfully got really irritated about it. And I went full scorched earth to fix this injustice! …until I realized how silly I was

I was talking to a friend who was filing for divorce. It needed to happen, but she felt terrible to be the person causing all this pain. I told her, "You're not causing the pain. You're ending it". Perspective is everything. Choose one that gives you strength.

If you can’t be smart, be consistent. If you can’t be brave, be resilient. If you can’t be lucky, be patient. Stay true, and success will find you.

What if everything works out? What if all you worry about doesn’t come to pass? What if your ONLY problem is worry itself… …and how it robs you of this very moment?

I learned a secret about writing on X. Dating and working out got easier when I fell in love with the journey. And writing is the same. So now I: - Don’t focus on views, likes, etc. - Don’t worry about being good enough - Do write about whatever lights me up (the irony is my

I felt like an imposter. Sitting at the park, surrounded by friendly faces. I didn’t talk to anyone. Just buried myself in a book. I’m supposed to be an expert on human connection. But all I wanted to do was curl up and read. I was in a funk. Weeks pass. I don’t meditate.

Sometimes I wonder how much bigger my business would be if I didn’t spend so much time pinned to my couch, forced to give my cat endless scratches while she constantly rearranges herself on my lap. Oh well. Back to work. This cat isn’t going to scratch itself. Apparently.

The amount we suffer is directly proportionate to the amount we desire. The solution isn’t to get all the things we desire or to desire less. It’s to shift our focus to living in the moment. It’s to feel the breeze, hold hands in a quiet moment, or curl up with a good book.

Getting up this morning was hard. My mind invented all sorts of worries and problems. But I refused to get out of bed until I was in a positive state of mind. This took me almost 30 minutes. But I know that years of worry and anxiety have pushed my mind to incline towards

"What’s happening outside Portland’s ICE facility isn’t just comedy, it’s cultural jiu-jitsu. It’s turning power’s own imagery back on itself, exposing how ridiculous tyranny looks under a disco ball."
