Two Wheels, One Soaring Spirit

"Two Wheels, One Soaring Spirit"

*****************”Is THIS going to be a gift or a burden?”****************

What do I mean by “THIS”?  Read on, you won’t be sorry…

Sometimes you have to just stop and take stock of your life. 9/11 was one of those days.

Last week, a friend of my son was messing around with pills for fun after a party. She died. 16 years old.

Some moments in life shock us into realizing what is important:

1. Gratitude for what you have

2. The people who love you

3. Your health

4. And most of all — what GIFT are you going to give to the world while you still have breath?

For the last year, I have been re-thinking my whole program for men (and for women) around dating. Learning to spark attraction is an essential first step. Yes. Learning to connect with another human being — or rapport — is an essential step. Yes.

But to me, none of those mean anything, ultimately, without taking that third step — which is to learn how to INSPIRE devotion. And that means living an INSPIRATIONAL LIFE.

Sound like too hard a task? Then check this out… Continue reading ‘Adam Gilad Is Grateful for Sean Stephenson’

So here I am at the New Media Expo — learning all about the wacky and wild world of blogging and podcasting.

So here I am with the publisher of of my podcast, The Fearless Lover, Susan and Tim Bratton of Personal Life Media, sitting in the hallway, talking to my beloved about my 17 year old and breaking trust and gaining trust and guiding him into the manhood as a man of integrity.

Integrity. Unlike television, with its shameful “news” divisions, false dramas and lost little white girls, and unlike television with its bloviating gasbags like Rush and Hannity — the new world of social media demands integrity. You will be outed if you are a liar. Character counts. Its a virtual community, yes, but the people are REAL.

And no matter what you’re posting or twittering or digging, it goes back to the oft-ignored slogan of the Hard Rock Hotel out my window here — “Love All. Serve All.”

And I am on the phone in a cavernous hall in Vegas - of all places - talking integrity… Continue reading ‘Fearless Lover, Dater and Father in Vegas’

I am getting ready to attend a series of Conferences, where I am speaking on powerful writing and expression in this loony 2.0 world, and am getting new business cards made.

What the hell do you write when you are a screenwriter and producer, an attraction and relationship and spiritual growth writer, an event producer and on top of everything else, honored with the job of helping writer and author, David Deida, build an internet platform so people can experience his work more fully?

I never define myself by job or title.

I define myself by passion.  By motivation.

I was thinking:  Gilad Creative Media:  Create.  Inspire.  Prosper.

Then I just saw Peter Shankman’s logo:  CEO.  Entrepreneur.  Adventurist.

I liked that better.  It took it the game out of commerce on that last word.

I may borrow it for myself on my next card!

One of my favorite quotes is from George Bernard Shaw:

“I want to be thoroughly used up when I…

… or don’t get married at all.

One of the last places you’d ever expect to find a spiritual awakening is in an Adam Sandler movie. However, there is a big one at the end of 50 First Dates when Drew Barrymore — who has no short term memory (always a good thing) — wakes up and sees flowers and photos…

The photos slowly tell her the story of her romance, then marriage to Sandler - and then she sees she has children with him. It is all news to her!

The look of amazement and gratitude that washes over her perky-nosed face is absolutely inspiring.

It is the look we should all have every day as we realize whatever boons we have in our life - health, abundance, and most of all — love… Continue reading ‘Get Married Once A Day…’
