Committing to constant growth is extremely important, whether you're someone trying to be the best version of themselves, or a band poised to save rock and roll.

How the rock became more than scenery in the greatest story ever told, plus the insight gained from an uncomfortable suit.

We are way too flippant about using the term "rock star." My uncle was deserving of the title. But what he needed was a superhero.

I don’t remember much about my numerous graduations. My medical school graduation was the greatest accomplishment, but it’s a hodgepodge of images mostly. I remember who was there, and it was surreal.

I used to equate the Grateful Dead with Birkenstocks, tie-dyed shirts, and Subarus. I was a rocker, not a hippie. All that changed in April 2023.

If you ever want to guarantee my success, tell me I can’t do something. “You’re going to eat those words!” will be my reply before you even finish the sentence.

Why are we so obsessed with pain?

Your foes can tell you the truth, and your friends can lie to you.

I refuse to let politics affect me. It astounds my friends and family, Democrat and Republican alike.

As a child, you wish to be an adult, never thinking that the adult is wishing to be you.

Maybe, reveling in another's glory gives us the ability to give ourselves permission to succeed.

A pet gives us their heart, and they break ours when they leave.

When navigating life, 'thank you' may perhaps be more important than the 'please' we use every day.

Perhaps the ability to evolve is the true path to better living. It beats standing in one place.

Are you being led, or managed?

Sometimes, the path to greatness is in minor details.

A thought as this new year rises: The dishwasher was invented in 1885. It became part of the homeowner’s consciousness in 1920, and by...

At many points in my life when I feel lost, I escape into music. Especially this time of the year.

This year, I had my fill of turkey, both edible and inedible.

No one ever said change isn't inevitable. But no one said we have to smile about it all the time, either.
