You Want To Be Happy Again?
We all get in ruts. Life happens. Sometimes we even pitch a tent there for far too long. There are times we feel like the world is closing in and that we are very limited. Other times we might feel like we could conquer the world. When we find ourselves in a rut, how do…

Testing Our Dream of a Corn Maze – Our Crossroad
They say it’s the journey, not the destination, that really counts. I agree, but there is also some satisfaction in actually arriving at your destination, right? We’ve been dreaming of having a corn maze (or some type of business on the farm where people can come enjoy it) for many years. We started adding it…

Difficult Days Can Make Us Stronger
Do you sometimes feel lost with no ambition? Some days we look at the condition of the world, or challenging circumstances surrounding us, and we feel small and defeated. In the book, The Hero with a Thousand Faces, Joseph Campbell explains that our lives are similar to many popular old stories. In order to become…

Making Progress Step-by-Step
One of my all time favorite mentors is Robert Kiyosaki. He teaches financial education and wrote the book, Rich Dad, Poor Dad. He taught more than finance, as most wise teachers do.

This Is What It Looks Like While It’s All Coming Together
It may look like I failed. I was certainly off to a wobbly start working toward better health – eating better, intermittent fasting, etc. I haven’t failed.

Life On The Farm – Bruce’s Influence
Going into this experience it’s always been our intention to do something for the public. For 10-15 years Kevin has wanted to do some type of corn maze business. We’ve searched for farm ground even longer. In the video where you see me bush hogging for the first time, Kevin describes our original vision. You…

The Struggle Is Real…ly Getting Easier
I usually want to quit and forget about it, but I couldn’t let it go. Maybe it wouldn’t let me go. My desire to lose weight must be boiling at 212 degrees. Just like water won’t change even at 211 degrees, we don’t change until we have a burning desire that reaches boiling point. I…

Life On The Farm: Where It All Starts – Day 1
Well, we were certainly doing something new. Just like with most new ventures, we didn’t know all the steps it would take to get this place in liveable condition. In the video below, do you see that tall grass Kevin’s mowing down with his new Kabota tractor? Yeah. That grass. It was infested with ticks.…

The Struggle Is Real: Mind & Body vs Spirit
A part of me wants to lose this excess weight. A part of me wants to be physically fit. A part of me wants to go hiking or jogging and to be out in nature. A part of me wants to be disciplined each day and to help others. BUT…another part of me just wants…
