Something important and rare, to which when there is something wrong with us physically, ranging all the way from from illness & pain, to hating how fat or wrinkly or ugly we feel.. that becomes irrele...

In this episode, I discuss true Stoicism, our emotions, two different mind exercises I learned to fight against PTSD flashbacks, and how life isn't a pursuit of happiness, but a pursuit of peace.

STAY IN THE FIGHT.

I first learned about “Default aggressive" from former US Navy SEAL's  Leif Babin & Jocko Willink ( check out Jocko Podcast or read their book "Extreme Ownership" for more intel).  This concept is an awesome way to approach life and we should remember it! 

"Default Aggressive" means that you’re being proactive instead of reactive. It means that you’re taking action in life, rather than bei...

In this episode, we wrap up going through of the book 'Feeling Good' by Dr. David Burns M.D.  We go through parts 3,4, and 5.  This book is a gold mine for dealing with depression.

So you don't have to!

How can you not listen when someone tells you that "you will fail" or that "you can't" do something?

Submission is not a cure.  Inaction seals fate. FEAR stands for False Evidence Appearing Real.  It all begins with something in short supply and high demand, Courage.  Do not allow cowards to influence what you say or do. You are being called. It's time to respond!
