How to Choose Your Highest Path in a World That's Trying to Control You

Of all the ideas that both terrify and excite me in equal measure, AI tops this list.

As I see it, we’re standing dead center in the impact zone of a 50 foot wave.

And it is just about to break.

There is no running. No hiding.

And no amount of bracing yourself will matter all that much.

Because Once it really hits, all bets are off.

It makes me wonder, what will matter most in a world that is difficult for us to even comprehend.

Where should we be putting our effort and attention?

The Newest OS

There are certain people who always have to have the newest thing. 

I'm not one of those people. 

I'm perfectly comfortable skipping a version of the iPhone. But there is something I've noticed. 

When you skip too many upgrades, things start to get buggy. Apps that used to work just fine suddenly start glitching. Response slows down. And you spend a lot more time looking at the spinning icons, waiting for something to happen. 

I've found that it's a lot easier to just keep the thing updated.…

The greatest self love quote of all time ? You decide...

This may be the greatest quote on Self Love I've ever seen. 

Self Love Quotes (McConaughey

🎤 🫳🏼 💥

By the way, if you haven’t checked out his book, “Green Lights,” it’s great. Kisma and I listened to it on a road trip and really enjoyed it.

There is no shortage of people who are more than willing to tell you who and how you should be. What you should want. Or what will make you feel happy and fulfilled.

They likely mean well. After all, they’re just trying to help.

The truth of the matter is that you are whole and perfect exactly …

The Mystic Charm of Slow Blinking

Pecan Super Chill Slow Blinking

There are few things more charming than a slow blink from your cat. 

With wordless grace, the slow blink says...

...I'm with you. I know you're with me.
.
..I feel safe with you. And you are safe with me.
...
I trust you enough to let go. You can trust me too. 
...
I've got your back. I know you've got mine. 

It's something you do together. Slow blinking demands your full presence and attention. And you are rewarded with the same. 

Give it a try now if you like. I'll wait…

See what I mean? 

Because I've bee…

A little insane?

The wisest man I know loved to share this parable with me. 

And wouldn’t you know it, when I opened up his book to reference the story, it fell open to the exact page I needed.

It’s about a prince who had all the wealth he could ever want. He went to pay homage to a great sage. When he arrived, the prince bowed down before the holy man. Immediately, the sage responded in kind and bowed down to the prince.

The prince was confused. “Why did you bow to me?”

The sage asked him the same question, as sage…

Life lessons on driving in the rain

One of the most fascinating human behaviors is something I call "The drift." 

If you've ever hydroplaned your car you know exactly what I'm talking about.

It's sneaky because you didn't DO anything to cause it. You're driving along and things are going just fine...until they're not. And if you don't handle it right, you'll spin out hard. 

When you're driving, you know it right away- especially if you've had it happen to you before. 

But in life, it can be a little harder to spot. 

Maybe you…

Me Time?

It's a popular mantra for people who are stretching themselves too thin..."I need some me time." 

And it's a good thought. But not all me time is created equal. 

For many, “Me time” is checking out in front of the TV. Not that there’s anything wrong with a good binge. But it’s probably not going to leave you feeling better than when you started.

What I’m trying to say is that you have choices. Every day. Countless choices.

And if this last superbowl taught us one thing it’s that watching peo…

Listen Up! (this is important)

One of the most frustrating things as a musician is playing with an ensemble who buries their head in the page of music on their stand and doesn't bother listening to anyone else around them. 

You see this a lot with younger, less experienced musicians. And with people who are overly concerned with perfection. 

The net result is something approaching music, but not quite. No one really wants to listen to it, but there it is, droning on endlessly. Waiting for it to end. 

There is no cohesive i…
