My Best Friend
20 years ago I married my Best Friend. I always wondered what it would be like to hit one of those Anniversary milestones, and this feels like one, although some have said, “20? That’s nothing! Try 50!” Hahaha. I will love that, too. I imagined how much we’d still like each other at 20 […]
LIVE & 1,000+ In-Person Events Are Back!
This past week I spent multiple days onsite for an event over a year in the planning that refused to go Virtual. They knew they were taking a risk. But they planned and executed their mission right. It was them Keeping The Promise To The Audience! It was my first flight to an event in […]
The Video Book is Finally Available!
The Time Has Come – The VIDEO BOOK of “The Promise To The One” IS FINALLY HERE! Backstory: At the end of February 2020, just before the world turned, the U.S. shut down with the pandemic, and all of my events were canceled as all went into quarantine, I flew across the country to […]
The Promise Institute
What did you dream about becoming when you were a kid? If you were like me (and perhaps you’ve read these facts in my book), the possibilities seemed endless, as it may have involved being an artist for Disney, playing basketball in the NBA, or becoming famous for your music and acting in movies.

View From The Top of The World
What makes you HAPPY? I think of that zone I get in when work is just flowing, I’m cranking out emails, finishing To-Do lists, projects delivered and ready to be published; Moments cruising down the highway in the RV as I look in the rearview mirror and see my children playing a game with […]
30-Minute Wait
My 13-yr old son and I hopped in the JEEP to go grab a Garden Burger at the only restaurant he’ll order a burger from: Nielsen’s Frozen Custard in South Jordan, UT. In fact, he gets two Garden Burgers, which to us is thrilling, as he won’t eat anywhere else (incredibly, he always passes […]
Keep Going – A Tribute to Coach Tony Ingle
My best friend died of COVID-19 this week. My heart has ripped apart, consumed by grief, a fogginess clouding my brain ever since I received the news. Coach Tony Ingle got hit early December 2020 with the virus and called to tell me he wasn’t feeling so great. As always, we laughed through the fear […]
The Joy of Living
My 2021 Promise Proclamation! This day – so beautiful – I Promise to embrace the Joy of Living: A child feeding the ducks with her parents; A couple on rollerblades; Dogs dancing between leashes as families go about; The air cleared to see the sunshine after a few days of cloudiness; Leaves to pick […]
The Year 2020
“Worst Year Ever!” “Can’t wait until this one’s over!” “The Dumpster Fire that is 2020.” Plenty of lines and ways to describe a most indescribable year. We’ve heard them all, and said most of them, in an effort to put into words what has been experienced. I believe it is justified, so don’t […]
The Importance of Connection Right Now
I was so excited as I hung up the phone. Having just received word my client was moving forward and doing a December holiday party, where I would share The Promise message to inspire attendees, while entertaining them with laughs and music going into the New Year, I was on cloud 9. My wife […]
