A reader has a business in the United States but wants to begin traveling and living abroad. He eventually wants to split his time between the US and Colombia. What is the best way to do this? I offer some suggestions.
“All that will be left, eventually, will be the grin of the Cheshire cat.”
A reader feels frustrated because it seems that he is not being rewarded for his ethical behavior. He thinks unethical people are being rewarded wrongly. He sees a conflict between what is ethical, and what is advantageous, and wants to know how to resolve it.
A reader doesn’t like how his girlfriend is behaving. She’s pulling away from him, and not responding in the way he would like. He feels like he’s not being valued. He wants to know if he can do anything to “make her appreciate him” more.
I comment on an article written by a junior officer who doesn’t feel challenged by his job and is disillusioned with it. This is the article I’m referring to:
We’re Getting Out Of The Marines
I respond with some thoughts of my own.
Today we deal with two separate questions from two different readers:
1. How do I get rid of negativity in my life from people around me?
2. How can I get along best in a politically-correct environment?
This podcast answers unrelated questions from two different readers:
1. What did I mean in a certain sentence from “Thirty-Seven”?
2. What guidance should a young guy get who isn’t sure he’s in the right career?
This podcast discusses the following topics:
1. How some knowledge comes suddenly, and some gradually.
2. Discovering the Nautilus bodybuilding system in college.
3. How leadership principles are absorbed gradually.
4. How you can’t save people who won’t save themselves, and why this is the most difficult thing for a man of action to accept.

In every culture in every historical age, there has been interest in some version of psychic phenomena.
But are these phenomena “real,” or simply delusions?
And how can it help us in our quest for answers? I offers some suggestions based on my own travels, studies, and experiences.
I receive an email from a guy who feels like he needs a career change. He’s lost his motivation and drive in his present job, and feels it’s time to move on.
He is considering the military, but doesn’t know if it is the right thing to do.
A reader emails me and says that although he has found success in his life and career, something is lacking.
Something is missing. He says that he is lacking a real sense of higher purpose.
