“People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily.” – Zig Ziglar I have to say that I found this quote to be enormously uplifting and somewhat of a relief. Why can’t I stay motivated? Why do I have such trouble getting out of bed early […]
“The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.” – Epictetus Dedicated to my dear group of closest friends, in whose company I spent a great evening last night. Good friendship is truly a gift. With love, Israel. xo

Today’s IQ is dedicated to my amazing wife, Belinda. She is the sunshine in my days, the sparkle in my soda, and the spring in my step. I am grateful EVERY SINGLE DAY for having her in my life. I am a better man because I have her by my side as we face each […]
