Life Tools
Over the past 15-20 years I’ve developed a suite of immensely powerful lifestyle management tools, each designed specifically to help us offset and deal with the relentless acceleration and massive inertia that slowly but surely erodes the quality of our lives in the Great Age of Addiction & Loss.
The Media Log…
…an abysmally simple but often unnerving exercise designed to expose our own complicity in and capacity for excessive media consumption, the default discretionary behavior in the Great Age of Addiction & Loss. You may find the Media Log both unsettling and profoundly disturbing. Many do.
The Media Log is predicated on two simple assertions, namely: that we can’t begin to deal with something that we can’t see or fail to examine in the first place, and that a good measure of our daily media consumption is unconscious. In essence, the Media Log dusts the fingerprints of our unconscious behavior — precisely where we exercise most of our obsessions and addictions. It renders the invisible visible and helps us understand exactly how we become our attention.
Since the quality of your life reflects how and where and with whom you spend your time, the Media Log will show you in detail how and where you spend most of yours.

An Uncommon-Sense Guide to Addiction Recovery…
Since media addiction is now a default condition in our lives, the rule rather than the exception, we are not only compelled to consider what it means to be an addict (of any sort) in a thoroughly addicted and thoroughly mediated culture, we must also rethink and re-examine what it means to overcome and recover from addiction (again, of any sort) — exactly what An Uncommon-Sense Guide to Addiction Recovery does.
An Uncommon-Sense Guide to Addiction Recovery helps you beat addiction because it show you exactly how to put first things first, and how to put gratitude — the first and greatest healing agent — to work in your life. Rather than helping you prioritize your schedule, An Uncommon-Sense Guide to Addiction Recovery will help you schedule your priorities by helping you identify and express gratitude for all of the good people and things that contribute to the quality of your life. Pardon the pun, but you’ll thank me for this one. This one will change your life.
There’s never been anything like An Uncommon-Sense Guide to Addiction Recovery, and it’s available right now as a pdf download for only $4.95.
The Centrifugal Map
The Human Centrifuge metaphor described in Life on the Edge has spawned an immensely powerful and thoroughly entertaining relationship diagnostic tool: the Centrifugal Map. In less than one minute the Centrifugal Map will show you the precise extent to which any relationship in your life satisfies your four basic needs — spiritual, physical, emotional and social. No numbers to add, subtract, multiply or divide. No magic. Nothing but simple common sense.
Take another minute and the Centrifugal Map will show you how effectively you apply each of your four inborn attributes — intuition, creativity, curiosity and willpower — against the satisfaction of each basic need in the same relationship. Again, no magic and nothing to measure or calculate. Again, just simple common sense.
In short, two minutes with the Centrifugal Map will tell you all you need to know about how any relationship with any person or any thing –work, art, food, media, God, etc. — contributes to the quality of your life, and precisely where you can focus your efforts to improve that relationship.
Like An Uncommon-Sense Guide to Addiction Recovery, there’s never been anything like the Centrifugal Map. Just putting the finishing touches on the pdf download now, and it will be offered soon as an instant pdf download for a $5.00 fee.
