by Michael Angier
I've always been fascinated by dreamers. And making dreams come true for myself and others is what my life is about. When I was in my teens, I started to think seriously about where I wanted my life to go. Like many young people, I had visions of doing something significant. I also knew that most people abandon their dreams. So I promised myself that I would never...
Survey Results: Can Money Buy Happiness?
by Scott Bilker
You hear it all the time, "Money can't buy happiness," but I'm not convinced. I know a family that won $1 million in the lottery. They were unhappy and cranky prior to winning.

I invite you-no, I implore you-to look carefully at how you're living your own life. Where are you just going through the motions? Where are you not living full out?

by Michael Angier
In today's market and with today's technology it's never been easier to compete with established companies and well-known individuals. Never before has opportunity been so universally available. Every day I see where someone has published their first book, launched a new company, starred in a new film or partnered with a large corporate entity.
