[October 29, 2022] There’s something to be said for virtue and truth.

There are significant differences in intelligence among different people. If you go… Read More »
[October 28, 2022] There are always people out there who are doing far better than you on pretty much anything you want to imagine. That came home to me during my U.S. Army training, the first day of taking a physical fitness test. I ran a two-mile course and finished in under 11 minutes (which is an excellent… Read More »
[October 27, 2022] Dr. Jordan Peterson is a psychologist who often speaks on the best way to make you a better person. He does that often with insights into the patterns of behavior we humans possess. He often speaks on the role men and women play in sexual selection.

[October 26, 2022] If you have real friends and you tell them bad news, they’re actually sad for you. You can tell them, and they will listen.

[October 25, 2022] I have wanted to be in the U.S. Army since I was a child. Doing so required a lot of sacrifice; that goes along with being successful as a Soldier.

[October 22, 2022] My newest book, “55 Rules for a Good Life,” is about how to make yourself a better person, and you can do that by comparing yourself to who you were yesterday, not to someone else. Today is part 2, and I call it “a few things to think about.” You also have to act in… Read More »
[October 21, 2022] A week ago, I published my book “55 Rules for a Good Life.” I’m upbeat about it because the message is so positive. And for that reason and because of my readership here at www.theleadermaker.com, I’m quoting from the last chapter. Call this a teaser.

[October 20, 2022] This is not an attempt at humor. The question, “Do you want to change the world?” is the mantra of our Millenial generation (those born roughly between 1981 and 1996) but more broadly applied to anyone born after the Baby Boomers generation.
