Meet The Internet’s Only Five-A-Day Blogger
Hi, I'm jeff noel from Orlando, Florida. Every morning before my wife and son (11) wake up, I crank out five differently-themed blogs about life's big choices. Each post is short & pithy. Short because people are busy. Pithy because people need the truth. Been doing this for three years straight without missing a day. Crazy? Sure. But here's the thing - it's changed my life in unimaginable ways. Crazier still, I believe reading my blogs may do the same for you.I Filmed This World Record

You Must Love Excuses
My friend and mentor, Lee Cockerell, told me that Bill Marriott once told him, “Lee, you must love flies in your kitchen“. Lee shot back that he hated flies. Bill said, “If you hated them, you wouldn’t have any“. Same … Continue reading
