The old owner was a jackass so he won't care. For those that have been living in a cave for the last few weeks we are only a short time away from the SUCCESS book launch at the end of the month.

Memories Of A Life Designers First Time

Splash. The bracing cold water hits my face and flows over my body as I dive out of the sun and slip into the cool water. I exhale and let myself drift slowly downwards to sit crossed legged on the bottom of the pool. I remain motionless, listening to the faint underwater hum of the filtering system and watch the bubbles float slowly upwards through dancing underwater sunbeams to break gently in an array of reflected light at the surface. It’s 2pm. Tuesday.

Structure Is Like A Strong Wind…Flow is Like A Frikin’ Hurricane So Unleash The Beast

In addition to chocolate covered marshmallow, I am a great believer in having structure in life, and systems in place that allow you to work and function effectively.
