“There are two educations. One should teach us how to make a living and the other how to live.” – John Adams

Be Your Best Self & Live Your Best Life with the University of Life!

Life doesn’t care whether you’re happy or sad, rich or poor, loved or lonely, confident or a coward. It respects whatever choices you make via your thoughts, feelings and actions, and that’s what determines where you end up.

If you’re smart, you’ll quit living your life randomly. You’ll stop doing things the way you’ve always done them just because that’s the way you’ve always done them. You’ll begin making informed choices that promote your well being!

The University of Life is here to help! We produce insightful articles, podcasts and videos to help you make productive choices that result in smart, happy living!

Live smart, live happy! Click on menu topics or read through the articles below to get started!
