(Principles are basic truths that, when applied, cause success to come to you easier and quicker.)


Spoiler alert: This is not a normal S3MC. Whatever normal is.

This is me announcing and celebrating the completion of 30 years of sharing these weekly missives. A demonstration of the principle of one-foot-following-the-other. Consistency. Wrapped in desire and personal growth. I enjoy it.

But then I don’t do anything I don’t enjoy. Or can find a result from it that I want. Life is not a study in suffering.

I did not plan on being a widower. I wish it had not happened. But here I am. It is up to me to find the joy in the journey. You may be surprised to learn that being continually on the hunt for material for these S3MCs is joyful. I like to discover and learn and share.

In recent years, I have penned the lyrics to The Song. It got produced. Here. I have hired a talented editor to simplify the process of writing The Book. An experienced operator guided me through two psychedelic-enhanced inner-work sessions. Both were life-changing. I am spending six weeks this fall in a small village on the island of Rhodes Greece. To experience difference. I have let go of my private pilot privileges because I’m no longer a safe flyer. Life continues.

If you are interested, I was recently a guest on a podcast. Here. I’ve hired a wizard to explore additional ways to share these weekly writings besides email and the S3MC website. Without adding a lot of work for me!

So there you have it. Thirty years and rolling.

Let me know what interests you. What are you drawn to? The meaning, purpose, and contribution of your journey? I want to hear it.
