I wish you…..
Just this little extra luck,
Just that tiny bit more warmth and loving affection,
Enough comfort and security for difficult moments,
A large dose of courage in dark days,
A handful of dreams that now come true,
And a little box of happy thoughts,
Cause you are loved!
We wish you a joyous, prosperous Read More...

2010 is here and it is now time to focus on what you want to accomplish in the New Year. If you haven’t set your goals yet…what are you waiting for!! This list is a great place to start. And if you have set your goals, this Top 10 List will give you a checklist to ensure you are set up for success.
1. The first step to goal setting is being specific! Examine your life and figure out what you want to change, then narrow it down to one specific thing you can realistically change in a specific time period.
2. Once you have chosen your goal, write it down and post it where you will see it multiple times a day. A customized screen saver is a great way to keep your goal in front of you; a note on your fridge or taped to your TV Read More...
A couple of months ago, my wife Peggy and I went to New York to run a Half-Marathon with our friend Meredith. It was an amazing run on a cloudy September morning in Central Park. The entire night before it had rained and we prepared for a wet run, and luckily the rain stopped before the race started and held off until we were walking home afterwards but needless to say it was HUMID throughout the race.
And for anyone who hasn’t been to Central Park it is a lot hillier than you might think, I don’t remember many flat stretches on the entire run. So, if you add up these elements the race was a little tougher than we had thought it might be that day AND besides all of that Peggy had just discovered she was Read More...

Don’t have much to spend on presents this year? These ideas cost next to nothing, but offer priceless memories.
1. Smile! Take a wonderful photo of your recipient’s child or pet. Make a paper frame or enclose it in a pretty card.
2. Lesson Plan. Volunteer the gift of a skill: Show a friend or relative how to knit, swim or use a digital camera.
3. Snow Day. Give a neighbor a card promising to shovel her driveway on the day of the first big storm. If you live in a warmer climate, guarantee to tend the lawn one weekend.
4. Babysitters’ Club. Offer the couple down the street a free evening of looking after the kids. Or you can promise them Read More...
You May Read Faster Than You Think
In the past fourteen years, I’ve worked with thousands of individuals who, previous to meeting me, had no idea what their true reading speed was. But they all had their self-made perceptions.
Most consider their reading speed to be slow with only a few believing it is fast. However, if you can get a true gauge on your reading speed and compare yours with others, you may find you are better and faster than you think!
So, let me help you figure your reading speed. The easiest way to do it is to go to my website where I have just added an on-screen reading speed evaluation called How Fast Do You Read?. It is located on the right upper corner of this page. It takes a minute or Read More...

Many of you are graduates of our memory training workshop.
I remember when I first went through the class; I thought it was great! I also found that there were still some seemingly simple things that I still did not recall, for example, people’s phone extensions, meeting times and directions.
So I came up with a few simple systems that have even farther enhanced the usage of memory training in my life, and I thought I’d share them with you!
Let’s start with my first example of people’s phone extensions. You dial the same people in your office all the time, so why do you need to refer to your Read More...
