I often find myself wishing I had a time machine so I could go back and get an earlier start on things. If I’d taken piano lessons in elementary school … If I’d have been the one to teach myself HTML in our office in the ’90s … If I’d bought Apple stock when it was in the toilet ……

One of my favorite blogs, Zen Habits, recently had a blog post that inspired me to share it here — and to supplement it with my own story about letting go of the illusion of control. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqktEPJIX3c] The Unpredictable Freedom and Sweetness of Chaos Post written by Leo Babauta ‘You must have chaos within you to give birth to a…
My mom liked to tell a story that made it sound like I was named on a bet. Or more accurately, as a permanent “I told you so.” If you’d met my mom, you’d buy this as totally plausible. My mother was pregnant before ultrasounds became routine and our family doctor told her I’d be a boy born around March…

That’s the benefit of watching a TV series on Netflix — when you find something you love, you can go on a bender, watching several episodes in a sitting. I’d heard about “Friday Night Lights,” but figured a show about high…

From Jim Morrison to Michael Jackson, from Janis Joplin to Amy Winehouse, perhaps the saddest part of Whitney Houston’s death is that she’s hardly the first great talent to burn hot and flame out. So many people have already written smarter, better informed pieces about Whitney’s rise and fall than I could ever hope to touch, so I’ll just point…
