Build Character Through The Challenge Of Sport

A good run at the 2015 Big Sur half marathon. I loved every moment of it especially seeing my wife and son cheering at the finish line. Thank you Big Sur see you next year.

Like Me, Love Me: Flirt With Life

Facebook is where we all live now. Social media is the present and the future. We are broadcasting 24/7 the reality show of ourselves–projecting the "we"–we see or would like to be. Facebook is the celebration of that public image. If Andy Warhol was still around he would have a huge presence online. Andy might like the effect new social media platforms are having on the world today. Facebook and Instagram now give everyone with a smartphone access to liberating their inner artist, of giving us all a voice, a say, an image.

We now use social media to put together a story, create a character or narrative, to evoke fantasy or escape, everyone can now package themselves as they see fit. We can all be whomever we'd like to be, build ourselves into a brand and stake some claim on personal fame. And maybe more importantly, we are connected in a way we never have been before–tuning in to feeds from across the world, entering a dialogue with people whom we'd never have access to before, joining cliques and building communities.

To celebrate this new reality comes a new campaign. This play of high and low, the far and near with equal access to pop culture and the personal is deep in Facebook's DNA. We are all very lucky to have access to the social network. The true leaders of our time are those who create the images and words that speak to all of us. 

Victory Is In The Heart: A Reason To Celebrate

Inside every great plan is a visionary mind that puts action in motion. Picking up my gorgeous wife and son in one of our sports cars to San Francisco to watch the Blue Angels has been something special for a few years. Now we show you how it feels. Sometimes everything about passion starts with a dream. Today and everyday I fulfill my dream. Get out there and live to the max.

$ellebrity: Making His Presence Felt

Purpose. Passion. Intention. Service. Vision. Possibility. Energy. Gratitude. I proudly congratulate Robert Verner at the Bay Club, Redwood Shores for teaching our son swimming. The mighty lemon drop is training like a human fish at sea. I can't help but be proud of the person my son is becoming. 
A good head and a strong heart are always a formidable combination for a career in medicine, law, architecture, advertising and motion pictures. The only limit to success is your own imagination.

Love Is The Most Powerful, Sustaining Form Of Motivation That We Have

The awesome thing about happiness is that when we are happy, that feeling expands from within us, all the way into the rest of the world for everyone to share. Inner joy is something that's yours: something that can never be broken or lost. Our real enemies are doubt, fear, anxiety and worries. When we meditate or exercise, we feel the soul of joy; it comes spontaneously like an inner fountain. When we do not try to perfect others, but only try to perfect ourselves then we find real joy. If we feel that we are not indispensable that without us the world will go on, we find joy. If we want true joy and true peace then we must be totally detached. This detachment does not mean that we shall not work for the world, but we shall not allow ourselves to be caught by negative emotions in anything. Fill yourself up with love and live in abundance.
