Bad News & Good News – Part 2 of 2

ByMatthew

[This is a continuation of this post.]

(I  apologize, I wanted to make you wait a bit before giving you the “news.”)

The good news is that you can manage yourself and your priorities, and more specifically, your energy.

This is very good news indeed. In fact, with intention and practice (of rituals) you can increase both the quantity and quality of your energy.

I will be writing about this more in the weeks to come, but if you can’t wait, get this book and read it (more than once . . . ) — and practice applying its lessons and wisdom.

  • One Way Coaching Works

    ByMatthew

    People make the best decision they can with the information they have available, and do the best they can with what they have. On its face the above isn’t that controversial, but do you believe it’s how things work? Do you think it’s how you live your life? I would argue that it’s the only…
