Einstein's Greatest Question

 

Albert Einstein is said to have suggested that the most important question we could ask ourselves is, "Is the universe a friendly place or not?" In his opinion how we answer that question determines our individual and humanity's destiny.  

Hmmm... I know my answer. What's yours?

Is this the REAL Secret to Success in 2026?!

Image
  Well, here we are the cusp of 2026! 2026?! Seriously!? I remember back in the 80’s, 2026 was the place of sci-fi, road warrior, bladerunning cyberpunk or escaping dystopian New York. Sometimes it can seem as if we’re there or will be soon, but until then we have our own hopes, dreams and goals to shoot for in 2026! Resolutions?! We Don’t Need No Stinking Resolutions!! I don’t know if you’ve heard, but I’m not a New Year’s Resolution fan… However, I am a big fan of looking at what was working and what wasn’t this past year… AND then re-evaluating where you are at, where you want to go (and Why)… and what’s in your way… THeN setting your goals and action steps for the New Year… There’s no “New Year / New You” without doing the work and then being able to sustain it. Sometimes that’s going to take you uploading an entirely new operating system to your own hard drive… A.K.A. Changing your entire mindset. Those goals and action steps aren’t going to do themselves! And the one’s that w...

Stretching, injury, and performance: A brief summary by Leonard H. Van Gelder

Image
 Leonard Van Gelder It was a good night; our Wednesday Krav Maga class was going well, everyone was sweating and training hard. We were working on frontal chokes while being pushed up against the wall. Leonard was having a difficult time getting one of the escapes to work, so he asked for help. After going over a couple of details Leonard said that he had it. Apparently he did, because a second later I hear a huge crash. As I turned to see what was going on I saw Leonard execute the escape perfectly on his partner Chris who had fallen forward with enough force to break through the drywall. The look on Chris's face was priceless as he picked himself up and out of the gaping hole in the wall. Now you may be wondering what all this has to do with my blog. Well, nothing really, I just thought I'd give a little introduction to Leonard Van Geldner who was kind enough to write this article for my blog. I've known Leonard for about 8 years or so now, he is a very ta...

Why Do You Train?

Image
When training I will sometimes ask everyone: "When do we give up?" The response is "When we are dead or safe!" I have heard a shorter version of this that I like from the Navy Seals: "Not dead, can't quit." This is a great mantra. To flesh this idea out a bit I developed a simple exercise that will help to bring this mantra to life for you. It can keep you focused in training when you are fatigued, beat down, gassed, frustrated, wiped out, trashed, getting schooled, at your wits end, and ready to throw in the towel. This same exercise is absolutely essential to keep focused if you ever find yourself in a real situation where your life (and possibly the lives of others) depends on you not quitting even when everything else is screaming at you to give up. Take a evening and reflect on all of those things that you want to live for. I know this sounds a little corny, but really think about this. Why do YOU want to be here on this earth? Is it to see your ...
