Blogging 101 Workshop and Mentorship Update
This week I finished two of my real world events: the first mentorship program and the first series of Blogging 101. Both events were incredibly fulfilling, to say the least. If anybody would tell me in August that by the end of November I will have 2 major live events completed, I wouldn’t believe him. [...]
The Marshmallow Test – They Got It All Wrong
Have you ever heard of the marshmallow test? If not, let me start by saying that this is a famous experiment.

The Tyler Durden Guide of Writing Tyler Durden Enhanced Blog Posts To Attract Traffic
I saw Fight Club years after it was launched. I did the same with Matrix and another few blockbusters. I’m not into hype. I like to see a popular movie after it loses the “fashionable†thing. I don’t know why I do this, it’s just a fact. Anyway, Fight Club was a fantastic experience. Few [...]
Goals and Mechanical Rabbits
When I turned 39, a few days ago, I wrote a list about 39 things I learned through experience. A few of them got picked up by my readers and broadcasted on Twitter. Being bitesized really helped this process, I don’t think any of those items were bigger than 140 characters. One of the most [...]
39 Things
Today I’m turning 39. And I thought it would be a good moment to post a list about 39 things I learned so far in my life. Or things that seems important to me now. Or just things. Regrets are like plastic surgery: they can’t really improve anything and they’re expensive as hell. Money is [...]
7 Reasons To Enjoy Life More

Caught in an endless, empty race without a real prize, we run each day trying to fulfill our own expectations, other people’s expectations, or just simply blindly following rules we don’t understand. We forgot what is the real reason of our existence: to enjoy it. To breathe life [...]
Lifestyle Design
Every house you see has a blueprint behind. Before it was built in real bricks and mortar, it existed in somebody’s mind. It was first a drawing on a drawing board. A wireframe. A scheme. A design. Your life as you live it right now has a blueprint behind. A set of rules and values. [...]

I said a few times, but I’ll say it again, just in case you missed it: [...]
How to Overcome Frustration in 3 Easy Steps
“Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion . . . I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.” – Kurt Vonnegut Jr. I used to totally, utterly, absolutely, downright hate frustration. It was an emotional reaction, I just couldn’t help it. Whenever I got caught in [...]
