- Where does happiness come from?
Since writing the book BeDoHave about finding happiness several years ago, I have spent thousands of hours thinking about and in conversation with people about the subject of being happy.
What makes us happy, how do we become unhappy, how do we be happy when there is nothing to be happy about… that kind of stuff.
As [...]

- Being Doing Having
I wrote the book BeDoHave - The Cure the Great Unknown American Epidemic almost three years ago now. Thousands have heard the message contained within and have told me it works for them.
Over the winter I found myself falling back on Doing Having Being! And my life changed dramatically - for the worse!
Once I saw [...]

- Challenges and Opportunities
If I believe in the natural laws of the Universe (as I should), there are several to keep in mind as I go about my business of finding happiness on a daily basis while ensuring a good life for myself and my family.
Among some of the laws I pay attention to are the 80/20 rule, [...]

- Happiness is a sunny, powder, ski day
Well, for me anyway happiness is a great ski day! Last week we took our planned mini vacation during the week.
It turned out to be a great couple of days to get away and get refreshed and spend time with family and friends.
Several things apply here in regards to happiness.
First, if we had not planned [...]

- Happiness in knowing where you are going
When we talk about BeDoHave and how following the formula will help you create the life you want, too many folks would like to believe creating is a passive verb.
Many would be upset if their lives have not changed by week two. After all have they not been meditating? Have they not been writing their [...]

- Financial happiness comes from internal happiness
Yesterday I was talking to a friend about happiness and money, and realized he did not understand a simple law of the Universe.
This law is as strong as gravity and you can no more ignore this law and be wealthy as you can jump off a tall building and fly!
Wealthy is not to be defined [...]

- BeDoHave works if you will only let it…
I took up soccer at 50. Basically, I needed to learn the game to be able to coach my son’s team.
Playing on a team and being physical active again has brought several opportunities my way (besides the physical workouts!). One is the ability to meet new people!
Last week we played a tournament and a fellow [...]

- How do you be happy without any reason?
This question came to me from the blog and here is the answer I sent back. Comments?
You asked about finding happiness without any reason…
I think this is a great question and one I will answer on the blog, but I also try to answer questions individually when I can.
My question back to you would be [...]

- How about giving a different kind of gift this year?
If you have been reading anything I have written over the last several months you know there is a massive project underway.
Well, events have sort of forced me to move the launch date up!
You are the first to hear about it - and to have first chance at it.
You are also the person who will [...]

- Study: Happiness linked to better health
This little article caught my eye this morning. I realized after reading it that I am rarely sick.
I wonder if I can attribute it to this?

- Happiness is being grateful
Happy Thanksgiving! Did you see the goofed post last week? That is what happens when you send too many emails to too many different people. I apologize and hope you at least got a laugh wondering if I had lost it!
In a way I have.

- Being happy definitely depends on you…
A wise person once said, it is far more important that you are a person who is becoming, then, what you are earning. Meaning that a person should work toward becoming wealthy, not for the money, but because of who they will become in achieving the goal.

- Find happiness in politics
Not.
After all the hype in elections and election day, John Carlton at www.john-carlton.com provides a refreshing point of view you might enjoy.
You know I love this nation. But I have no illusions that it’s “the people” who make it great. “The people”, in fact, often act like spoiled children or Huns with their blood-lust fired [...]

- Find happiness in the most simple things
For me last week was one of those I am very happy to get out of! As I have said before, without knowing the challenges how can I know the rewards? Lots of rewards coming!
I have mentioned a project slowly working it’s way to you (started several years go) and I have some news on [...]

- Find happiness in a computer
Who thought you could find happiness in a computer?
Not me. Not until my laptop started dying last week. A computer can definately bring frustration (and fascination) when all of your business comes screeching to a halt.
Building an internet based business means spending a great deal of time online. There are blog posts, newsletters, autoresponders, email [...]

- Build happiness and they will come!
Did you see the movie Field of Dreams? If not, you should go get it!
The story involves a family in the midwest who cut down their corn crop, almost lose the house to the bank, lose all their friends - all to build a baseball field in the middle of nowhere because of a vision [...]

- Finding happiness in dreams
Do you have 20,000 helpers? That is how many men the Inca civilization utilized to move one single block of the tens of thousands of blocks that built the monuments still available to be seen two thousand years later.
How many friends do you have to help you?
As each of us searches for ways to build [...]

- Find happiness on Friday!
I was talking yesterday with someone who said they could not wait for Friday.
This is such a sad thing to hear.
Why in the world would anyone in their right mind consciously choose to participate in a life where they do not want to be five out of every seven days?
Does this not seem patently absurd?
It [...]

- Happiness like the tides moves in and out
Sometimes I go on and on about finding happiness and contentment where some might think I am just bubbling with joy every minute.
Not exactly.
You see, surely I am not that much different from you. Are you bubbling with joy every minute!
This weekend has me thinking this morning I would love to just pack and leave! [...]

- Happiness and success from someone else!
Finding happiness is a subject I am passionate about.
A lot of people share that passion, and I search them out wherever I can.
For the last two years I have also been studying internet marketing from some of the best minds on the interent. One of the best is John Reese.
John created an information product, rolled [...]
