I just posted a new article on LinkedIn. It begins:
“For a couple of years, I taught college chemistry and absolutely loved it. Many people, including myself, love to teach. We enjoy sharing knowledge and watching the ‘lights go on’ inside other people when they come to those new understandings we’ve conveyed. However, for the past twenty years, my motivation for teaching includes, but has gone beyond, the more traditional motivations”…

I just published a new article on Medium.com. It begins:
“I attended undergraduate school in the late sixties and early seventies when the hippie movement was at its peak. As a conscientious student, I didn’t have time for anything other than my studies. However, today I long for those peace and love ideals.
“Realistically speaking, what is peace and love anyway? Isn’t it far more than non-violence and free love? Doesn’t it include more than being respectful, compassionate, polite, and dignified toward all people, not just the ones you agree with?”…

Entrepreneur.com just published one of my new articles. It begins:
“Think about the last argument you got into. Did you win? Did you lose? Did it matter? Did you get angry and did it end uncomfortably? How did it make you feel and how did it make the other person feel? If you won the argument, how much did you really gain, and how much did you actually lose?”…

Often, our intellectual understanding and our feelings are in conflict.
We can’t help what we feel, even though we may know better.
To go with what we know to be true when our emotions cry out to go another direction can be very painful.
How do we attain peace within our being when our emotions and thoughts are in conflict?…

I just published a new article on LinkedIn.
It begins:
“I was surprised to see how many different approaches there are to making a To Do List: Todoist, Wunderlist, MindTools, Time-Management-Guide, Day-Timer, etc. If you like any one of these, feel free to knock yourself out. I personally don’t have the time to mess with them. Instead, you may want to consider my approach, which I feel is more real world, efficient, and, at least for me, more effective”…

I just published a new article on Medium.com. It begins:
“Inspiration comes from the depth of your being. Something is inspiring when it touches and awakens that depth. The process of the mind touching into the depth is called “transcending.” The mind has a natural tendency to transcend, to go to the depth of one’s being, which means to go to the source of intelligence, wisdom, knowledge, insight, and fullness of one’s heart”…

HuffingtonPost.com just published another one of my new articles. An excerpt:
“It’s interesting to reflect upon why ‘hand food’ is so popular. It’s a well-known fact that the natural process of digestion starts with the digestive juices flowing before we put the food in our mouths. This was revealed long ago by Pavlov’s experiments. A natural stage of the process of digestion is picking up the food with our hands. Even from an evolutionary perspective, there was food way before there were knives, forks, and spoons. Our ancient ancestors began their feasts by picking up the food with their hands and putting it in their mouths”…

“Are you thinking about constructing a team for your business? The following principles are typically not employed, which is why I am presenting them here.

Entrepreneur.com just published another one of my new articles. It begins:
“Wilhelm Reich, a colleague of Sigmund Freud, laid the foundation for five classic personality types which, to this day, are well recognized in the field of psychology. Dr. Reich actually identified the body builds of these five types first, and then identified the personality types… By knowing about and working with these five classic personality types, you can understand yourself better and become more effective at working with others…”
