It's hard to find competent and success-oriented entrepreneurs during a poor economy. I've found that accountability has the greatest impact on taking action.

The purpose of the group is to network, expand your perspective on …

While there, I witnessed some miraculous recoveries, often even with those diagnosed with so-called terminal illness. After seeing these miracles, I became obsessed to explain how they were possible. Thus, I was inspir …

I need to start walking, and I want to meet new friends, so I thought I'd combine the two into one meetup. I do better if I'm accountable to others, and it's always more fun to do things in a group, so I'm hoping we could make a commitment to each other to meet a certain number of days a week, say 3 or so, whatever works for the group. I'm not looking for a hiking group, but one that does more gentle, less ambitious exercise, say walking at a regular pace (not slow, but not too brisk, either--at …

We plan surfing events when possible, but many of our events will be of the social nature including beach clean ups, surfrider fundraiser events, after work cocktail hours, and other even …
