Your Favorite Part
“The Raptor Daddy Dinosaur routine!” “TJ The Shuttle Driver – Yee-Haw!” “The part where you took Facebook off your iPhone to be a more present Dad!” These are some of the many responses I get following a presentation of “The Promise” when signing books and asking attendees what their favorite part was, or what […]
Tesla Promise with Jeff Civillico
Disclaimer: I Do Not own a Tesla, although I would love to someday, and especially after this Promise worthy story was posted and shared on Instagram by my dear friend, beloved Host, Emcee, Speaker, and Award-Winning Las Vegas Entertainer Jeff Civillico. This whole post today is a screen shot, as it comes to us from […]
Working Out My Neck
Walking into the gym every morning I get to play a game called: Which Machines Are Open Today? Seriously, the earlier I get there, the crazier it is. I have arrived at 4:55 AM only to see the same 30 people stretching in the parking lot every morning waiting for the doors to open. These […]
LOL Funeral
Did you hear the one about the Mom who sent “LOL” regarding the passing of a loved one? In this case it was the older generation innocently texting & trying, thinking LOL stood for, “Lots of Love”, not the “Laughing Out Loud” that has become today’s version of the abbreviation. Texting & Trying is Drinking […]
2 Brands Collide: The Promise vs. Jason Hewlett
Have you ever created something that you put your heart, soul, time, money, energy and everything into, only to face the reality that it’s not really working? I’m about to share something extremely vulnerable, and will attempt to do so succinctly (good luck!) so as to not belabor the point, but I have come […]
Losing the Award: Lady Gaga Promise Leadership
Lady Gaga has just helped me see that even in losing, we can still win. Did you see what she did at the Grammys while not on stage? Her actions weren’t highlighted enough for such graciousness, even in defeat, but needs to be acknowledged here. What did she do? Read on. ~ But first – […]
Slap Him Back: Will Smith and Chris Rock
I’m sick of this story that has dominated headlines all week, just as you probably are, too. Yet the moment Will Smith stormed the stage to slap/punch/whack Chris Rock at the Oscars, all bets were off and will stir debate for years to come: Will was defending his wife’s honor! Chris was out of line! […]
$650,000 per Month in Taxes: The Steve Harvey Promise
We are coming up on the month of April and Tax Day, perhaps the most heart palpitating, stress inducing, cry-yourself-to-sleep time of the year. No matter how bad things may look for you this year we can always bask in the joy of the misery of celebrity. Take for instance Steve Harvey, with his latest […]
The b0z0 Movie
My sons and their best friend have made over $300 in ticket sales the past few weekends holding private showings from our basement for their just released “The b0z0 Movie”. We can hear kids laughing and screaming with glee as they are subject to the creation of our boy’s imagination and hard work over […]
Ukraine’s Zelensky and Promise Leadership
Unfolding by the minute, we watch horrified as Russia invades Ukraine, crimes against humanity and illegal strikes on innocent civilians. We ask: How can this happen in today’s world? When I heard Putin’s military convoy 40 miles long was headed for Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, I figured we’d learn of the Ukrainian administration flying away in […]
