By now you will know that I am a ’new-age’ type of a char­ac­ter. I have a lot of inter­est in spir­i­tu­al­ity, moti­va­tion, and other top­ics related to my per­sonal and spir­i­tual devel­op­ment. A few days ago, while read­ing an inter­view with Dan Mill­man, I found a very pow­er­ful quote […]

Today I realised that in Octo­ber last year I wrote a post to my Face­book blog, but did not put it in here! Below you will find a ‘blast from the past’ that can help you estab­lish a reg­u­lar exer­cise rou­tine (which, as you can see from my pre­vi­ous post, works rather well!). I hope […]

I read an inter­view in ‘The McK­in­sey Quar­terly’ with Al Gore and David Bloods, founders of Generation […]

One of my con­stant sources of inspi­ra­tion is best-selling author Dan Mill­man. I am start­ing to notice a pat­tern here: two of my spir­i­tual guides (Jack Lalanne and Dan Mill­man) were for­mer ath­letes, and shared their per­spec­tives on life with oth­ers in a rather pub­lic way.

A num­ber of things have made me think about the impact I have on this planet. There is the incred­i­ble promi­nence that envi­ron­men­tal issues have nowa­days in the news; Then there was Dan Millman’s blog post about the impact that my choice not to be a veg­e­tar­ian has on car­bon emis­sions.

On Dan Millman’s blog, there was a recent entry that gen­er­ated some inter­est­ing com­men­tary (click here to see the entry and com­ments)
