Children have always been labeled as natural day-dreamers. Caught up in a world of make-believe, they spend countless hours dreaming of far-away places and exciting adventures. As they get older, the make-believe seems to end. Or does it? Adults, unbeknownst to them, live as much in a world of make-believe as children.
How many times [...]

This week, Life Training Online will be reviewing The Millionaire Course by Marc Allen, the second of fifty-two books in the 52 Personal Development Books in 52 Weeks series.
When I first took a look at this book it reminded me of some snake-oil salesman’s late night pitch, promising any desperate victim millions of dollars if [...]
There is a pervasive myth that has slowly spread in American culture within the past few decades, which is the sense that we are entitled to a successful life. Things like a successful marriage, a great job providing all the benefits we need, 1.3 kids and a white picket fence to boot - all [...]
One of the unique endowments we have as human beings is the ability to imagine ourselves outside of the now. This can be just as inhibiting as it is facilitating though. Forever stuck in the past, there are some of us who squander our time reminiscing our “glory days” when we should be focusing on [...]
What I’ve come to learn is that people don’t simply put things off, postpone, or procrastinate because of a lack of purpose, but rather a lack of preparation and planning. We’ve all experienced this: We know what it is that we want, where it is we want to go, but because we don’t know how [...]
What seems to separate those who find success in life from those who do not, is not a lack of talent, but rather a lack of action. This is not to say talent has no bearing. Nonetheless, if you are frozen by inaction, you will never realize the true extent of your talents. Why do [...]

Are you being choked by the weeds of information? Richard Saul Wurman, in his book Information Anxiety, said that “a weekday edition of the New York Times contains more information than the average person was likely to come across in a lifetime in seventeenth-century England.” With so much information, advertisements, conflicting views and other noise [...]
The first time I heard the term ‘back-planning’ was from a former instructor in the U.S. Army. He was giving a presentation about goal setting and how it related to planning a military operation. When the military plans an operation, they first decide exactly what it is they want to accomplish, then after deciding what [...]
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them. - Henry David Thoreau
If there is one thing that separates the few who reach excellence, from the masses that wallow in mediocrity, it is this: A willingness to go beyond one’s limitations, by operating outside a level [...]

What would you do if every day $86,400 was deposited in your bank account? You could use the money in any way you like with one condition: whatever remained at the end of the day would be gone by the next day. What would you do? You would use every penny right!? You’d probably pay [...]
