This evening I will be giving a talk on Everyday Abundance at One Spirit in New York. One of the themes I will focus on is the relationship between abundance and living a life of purpose. I notice that when I feel I am on purpose I want for nothing else. Continue Reading
My daughter, Bo, has recently celebrated her second birthday. As you can see by the picture of her below, she is all grown up now.
Recently, Bo has taken to waking me up each morning with a little question that she whispers ever so sweetly into my ear. The question is, Daddy, shall we have some fun today?
What an invitation.
It’s the way Bo says it that really gets me. She makes it sound so appealing. How can I say “No” to her? Continue Reading

When I prepare for a workshop I give, I often find that my thoughts turn to poetry. Not exactly sure why; it just happens that way.

It sounds a bit French, doesn’t it! And what is the entrepreneurial spirit? Well, here are ten symptoms that I have come up with which might help you to recognize it in you and release it even more into our life. Continue Reading
On February 27th-28th, I facilitated a workshop on Everyday Abundance at the Columbia Hotel, London. For two days, a room full of people, who came from all walks of life, explored some big themes including definitions of real abundance, blocks to real abundance, and also what can enable greater abundance.
I put this workshop on now, in the middle of this economic recession, because I believe we are each being called to reflect on what is of real value in our lives. The workshop was a wonderful occasion, and one that I personally got a lot out of. It was full of deep realizations, rich sharings, helpful conversations, and new commitments going forward.
The Everyday Abundance workshop started with a reading by Avril Carson and Lizzie Prior of a poem I wrote called True Abundance. This poem set the tone for our workshop. Here it is: Continue Reading
