When she had her first $10,000 month living on the beach in Thailand, she knew she was onto something.

In this Season 2 Finale, coming back from a bout with pneumonia, Michael talks about Empirical Wisdom by sharing his experience of nearly dying due to an Empirical MIS-diagnosis. He digs into how we make decisions and judgements (aka our "diagnosis") based on our experience and observations - which aren't always accurate. Marking the end of Season 2, this episode will launch us into our Interim period between seasons, as we gear up for what's next. The show schedule for the next couple of months will surely be a bit more sporadic, with Michael still recovering and vacations and holidays on the horizon. Season 3 is sure to be a big hit with a new format that you, the listeners, have been asking for. New guest experts will continue to join us each week, but the episodes will be less of an interview and more of a short workshop in a particular area of conscious living. As always, we'd love your feedback by posting comments here or leave us a message on Speakpipe right on the website. And finally, this episode is

In this Best Of episode, your host, Michael Neeley will take you on a discovery of the reasons why your efforts at personal development (self-help) have fallen short or missed the mark. While the self-improvement genre continues to grow by leaps and bounds, do you ever wonder why people keep devouring the material? Wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that if the books (or workshops or seminars) were working, that we wouldn't ever need to buy another self-help book again? YET, statistics have proven otherwise. From his work in the development of his book, The Art of Forgetting, Michael has distilled the challenge down to three basic elements, which he shares in this podcast episode.
