1. Why are you an author? I am actually a 1st-time author. My wife and kids encouraged me to write a book based on home improvement tasks I did around our old home for years that didn’t always go as planned. I was very fortunate to have my book published by the...

This may sound silly. But I started reading books again. I stopped for a while, like 18 months. I was tired of reading and especially writing books. I wrote my father’s biography Close the Loop, and it exhausted me. I wrote it quickly, but it took a while to get to...

I recently read a fascinating book, which helped me reexamine my overall disposition. Key takeaways: happiness takes courage, don’t worry what others think (but don’t engage in wrongdoing). The Courage to Be Disliked By Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga...
