What's in this blog?

OK, you're here. Now what? What will you find here? More to the point, why should you care?

In a nutshell, I want to take a look at how the limitless potential of our dreams can meet our limitations, fears and flaws and come out the other side as a life filled with Meaning, Abundance, & Passion.

Beyond that basic framework though, the door is wide open to what this blog might become. It's not that I'm too lazy to think through the details and plan the content in advance. I'm simply a big believer in defining a basic focus, then letting nature take its course.

I'm interested in the full spectrum of reality. Each and every one of us is human, and that means we have the potential to be both divine and excruciatingly fallible.

We have big dreams and we have fears that prevent us from taking a step. We have spurts of genius and then manage to do something completely boneheaded. We're inspired to achieve our goals and then forget to take care of the vehicles (that is, our selves) that are going to take us there.

In this blog, I want to motivate and enlighten, giving you the tools and ideas that will help you be a M.A.P. Maker in your own life. At the same time, I want to shine a light on the bumpy side of getting there. Because finding the dream isn't a matter of living a life with no bumps. It's about moving past those bumps, knowing what you want, and not letting them distract you.

Thank you Curt for creating this blog, I definitely believe that life is much more than simply working hard and getting a paycheck.

Also, I really like your succinct explanation of what M.A.P. stands for!
