  7. @BjarkeT Can't believe I haven't gotten that classic yet! (Gasping.) Cruised right over to Amazon to throw it into my shopping cart! (Thanks for the recommendation. : ) And thank you for your kind words. I wish you all the best, Frode

  10. Hey there! Here are five of my favorite Big Ideas from "Make It Stick" by Peter Brown, Henry Roediger, and Mark McDaniel. It's packed with wisdom that'll help you learn and remember more in less time. Hope you enjoy it, and I would love to hear your honest opinion on what I can start or stop doing to improve these Episodes for you!
  11. @vibrate You might be right. I probably would have picked that if I hadn't chosen to do the work in English. Cheers!
  12. I distilled some practical wisdom from "Braving the Wilderness" by Brenè Brown in this video. Hope you find it helpful on your Hero's Journey of Actualizing! P.S. Would *highly* appreciate any honest comments on what you think I can start or stop doing to improve the Episodes.
  13. @vibrate Thank you for your honesty, vibrate. I appreciate it, and get why the title and Logo might have come across as unfitting. If you want to know the reason I chose the name Actualize: Read the book "Your One Word" by Evan Carmichael, all about reflecting on the One Word that captures what makes you come alive; what captures the essence of you as a human being. Actualize was the one, as becoming a better person and helping others do that too has always been important to me. And for the logo: Wanted to go for a simple one, something people can easily recognize. The intention was never to copy Leo (or my #1 hero, Brian Johnson, with his business Optimize). Hope you found something useful from this extra bit of information. Best wishes, Frode

  17. @Dodoster Hey Dodoster! Thanks a lot for your kind words, I really appreciate it. Much love right back at you!
  18. @Loreena You're welcome, Loreena, and it sure is! Truly one of my favorites, since the underlying idea is so important to embody for personal growth.
  19. @ctro Hehe, that's true (at least counted in years), and we are VERY grateful for the wisdom we have access to from the older guys!
  20. Here are my favorite ideas from "The Bhagavad Gita," introduced and translated by Eknath Easwaran. It's a classic of Indian spirituality, and the best known work in Hinduism. The theme is self-mastery. I hope you enjoy!
  21. Here are my favorite ideas from "50 Ways to Create Great Relationships" by Steve Chandler. I hope you enjoy!
  22. @ctro Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me, I appreciate your support and insight into how I can also become a better speaker (decades of hard work, which I'm ALL about. : ) And, you do a great job weaving in your wisdom non-confrontationally so I can be even more committed to being a lifelong and humble student as I wrestle with all of these great ideas. The fun is just beginning.
  23. Here are my favorite ideas from "Fail Fast, Fail Often: How Losing Can Help You WIN" by Ryan Babineaux Ph.D. and John Krumboltz Ph.D. I hope you enjoy!
  24. @ctro Hey, ctro! I watched one of his videos, and he seemed like a really cool guy. It'd be *awesome* to get to his effort (after years of practice!). And my future wisdom is quite simple: I'm committed to creating the largest collection of wisdom I possibly can through studying, embodying and teaching Big Ideas like those in my videos. (It's a hard process to master, though, *really* embodying the ideas moment-to-moment, so I understand if you're skeptical regarding my limited life experience!) If there's anything else you're wondering about, just ask.
  25. @The Motorcyclist Hey, Motorcyclist, I appreciate you for taking the time to write such a detailed description of another version of the Gita (As in Geese! : ), and I've promptly added it to my list in Amazon. (I'll make sure to give it a fine spot in my library when I get to it.) And thanks for sharing your experience of becoming fluent at English as your second language; I'm about 6 months in now, so I'm looking forward to the time when I've put in enough effort to also become fluent like you.
