How’s Your Narrative Coming Along?
Some of you may know this, but all the blog writing I’ve done over the years, as well as the marketing I’ve done for my own small business, has led to a “second” career as a writer, of sorts. Largely sales copy writing, email marketing…that type of thing. I really...
What to do when you have a “lapse”…
I need to tell you a story of what a lapse looks like in real life… How this played out is something we can all learn from. We all know how easy it is to slip off track. It happens to all of us. There something weird in the human psyche that allows us to slip up—even...
Are you pre-wired for “no”?
I did a Facebook Live video on this topic last night, but thought it was important enough to write about it a bit more…(besides, I got bounced off Facebook right in the middle of things, so…here we are) I need you to ask yourself a question…and give yourself a...
The Myth That Exercise Reverses Aging
Wait, what? “Art, you’re a fitness guy who has said—in public—that exercise has an anti-aging effect on the body. Now you want everyone to believe it’s not true? What gives?” asked a fictitious reader. Well, let me explain… You may call this a little bit of semantics...

It is not uncommon for many men and women to go through episodes of mild or moderate depression as they age. In general, the first reaction is to get on medication. But, as many of us are aware, these medications are not free of side effects: dry mouth, dizziness,...
Motivation lasts about a minute.
I’ve been talking about what really drives people to succeed for a long time. The research shows that self-discipline and “motivation”, as most of us think about it, is a very fleeting thing. And it’s true. I can go listen to someone like Tony Robbins (I’ve actually...
Never miss a chance to make yourself a priority
I have a short, simple point to make today… It’s this: Some people think they’re being selfish to put themselves first. It’s like the first time you hear the flight attendant say, “Please put on your own oxygen mask first before helping others.” It just sounds really...
So…Let’s talk menopause
Nothing like a conversation about menstrual cycles and menopause to start your day…but I think you’ll find this one interesting. There are a LOT of factors that go into determining when a woman starts menopause. Genetics play a large role, as does ethnicity,...
Why we lose muscle mass as we age
A new study came out with a clearer explanation as to why we lose muscle mass as we age. Of course, if you sit around and don’t do anything…that’s a good way to speed up the process, but that’s not what I’m talking about. This new study shows that the nerves that...
