Painful Growth

The process of growth often requires that you first disassemble the old, whatever the "old" may be. It can be the old you, an old business relationship, or an old house. As we grow older, we tend to get locked into a routine. Routines are deadly for personal growth. Research has shown that we need to get out of our routine even to keep our brain stimulated as we age.

With that in mind, it is with a heavy heart that I tell you that my co-host, Hermann, and I ended our business relationship several days ago. It was an amicable break. I love Hermann and have all the respect for him in the world. He is a fine human being.

There were a number of reasons for the split. However, the basic one was that we had two different visions of where the Guide To Self Radio show is to go.

The show must go on. So after a week of reruns of the series on energy vampires and toxic people, I go on solo beginning this Monday. It's exciting and slightly scary at the same time.

Yesterday, I spoke at length with Mike Trout, the former co-host of Focus on the Family with Dr. James Dobson. Mike gave me several great ideas for revamping the show, many of which we will strive to incorporate into the show. A big thank you to Mike for his time and suggestions.

Be sure to tune in this Monday at 5 pm on KDIA 1640 AM for a brand new look and sound. Guide To Self version 2.0 is coming soon!

Quote of the Day: The important thing is this: to be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become. Charles Du Bos

Question of the Day: When was the last time you sacrificed what you are for what you could become? When was the last time you took a leap of faith?
