Our constant need for “better” is keeping us unhappy. Here’s how to overcome it.
First, props to you for taking the time to read this (assuming you finish it). Why? Because you probably interrupted your scrolling through your newsfeed to click off and come here. And, what were you seeing on that feed? Cars, jets, houses, couples with 6-pack abs frolicking in Tahiti. Fashion models, shoes, you get the…
Read MoreThe real reason so many successful people are unhappy, and what to do about it
What does ‘success’ mean to you? If you live in America, odds are that the success you’ve been shown over the years revolves around the “what” you can obtain. The cars, the houses, the clothes – those things are what you should strive for in order to live a happy life. In school we learn…
Read MoreThe real reason most people are unhappy in their lives
I have always been fascinated by psychology. For the past decade I have taken classes on the subject, had thousands of conversations with people (literally) about their relationships and what makes them tick, read as many books as I could find, and even wrote a book on finding love within yourself. In more recent years…
Read MoreYour 5 Step Guide to Achieving Happiness in Your Life
As someone who coaches driven, ambitious people on how to perform better in life and in love, it is not my job to tell them what to do, as common perception might lead you to conclude. Any good coach’s responsibility is to guide. To ask the right questions, and help YOU find the answer. A…

Read MoreThe Secret to Living Your Life to The Fullest
It’s a quiet Sunday morning, I’ve come up to my parents’ house to visit for the weekend. Logan, our 4-legged family member, is sleeping on my shoulder. His faint snoring is the only other discernible sound outside of the country music in my headphones (I’m just as surprised as you that I listen to country).…
Read More7 Rules To Live By For A Better Life
As I sit here to write this, the first article produced in my new apartment, I look around and reflect on the previous few months of life. Much has changed. Things are crazier, hectic, and in some ways, uprooted. I look around, though, at this beautiful place I’ve become fortunate enough to live in. The…
Read MoreYou’re Not Happy Because You Never Learned How To Be
While this may seem like a completely different topic than I usually write about, there are certainly some overlaps. For one, relationships should be about sharing happiness with another person.
