Finding God In Silicon Valley

When you think of Silicon Valley, what comes to mind? Apple, Inc., Google, Facebook, eBay, Adobe, Stanford, Oracle and on and on. Well here is one thing you can add to the list, God. No, it is not an innovative company or a new gadget for the fast and hardworking Silicon Valley people. We are talking about the Alpha and Omega God. 

That is what my friend and spiritual mentor, Skip Vaccarello is authoring, a website called Finding God in Silicon Valley. Skip, who has his MBA from Harvard and was a Chairman/CEO for a major company in Silicon Valley, left the work place to make God known in Silicon Valley. You can read about more than a dozen of successful professional athletes, CEOs and entrepreneurs and the role faith has in their lives by reading their interviews on http://www.findinggodinsiliconvalley.com

Yes, I do like my Italian-made clothes and accessories, but I have to admit that I love buying goods that are made in America and support my country as much as I can. Together, let's build the economy by buying "Made in the USA" goods!

Each of us can rise from the circumstances of our birth, but don't let the desire to succeed impinge on your most sacred value. It often does not get you to your desired destination.

When you think about the life you want, make sure you are designing one that is just right for you. Someone else's life, will not necessarily be the right fit for you. Look deep down in your heart and find out what it is you want and go after it. You deserve to live your best life NOW!

The Oxford English dictionary has more than 171,000 words. To me, the three most important words are "I love you"

Sometimes, the biggest fight we can do in life, is just to let go.

Winners Don't Entertain Any Excuses!

At the Paralympics game, I am standing here with two Parlympics athletes who are courageous enough to go after their dream despite their physical limitations. Last night, Amy Purdy, graced the dance floor at Dancing With The Stars after winning the bronze medal for snowboarding at the Paralympics in Russia just a few days ago. Amy is a double amputee.

Any excuses anyone?

Write your eulogy according to how you would want to live this life.  Based on that, design the ultimate life for you and believe in yourself that you can make it happen. You deserve to live your best life NOW!
