Tricky Questions - How Long Will It Take To Nail The Move?

Lusting after impres­sive skills and tricks is completely natural - we see some­body doing some­thing cool and of course we want to do it too.

You're Only Fooling Yourself (and more comforting thoughts)

Are you being completely honest with yourself?

The world is creat­ing so much BS these days that future gener­a­tions of humans will have to grow wings if they’re going to survive. It’s liter­ally every­where, and we all know it. The worst part is, as much as we all wish we could point our fingers squarely at some­one else as the source of the…
