“I just love your 'cliff notes', in fact, I love everything about what you are writing and doing! Just amazing! Can't begin to tell you how much your material has helped me. I listen almost everyday.” ~ Justine
“Hi Brian, I've been receiving your Philosopher Notes via email for over a year now and they remain a brilliant inspiration to me... one that I look forward to receiving during the week. The always seem to address what I most need to hear and I also often pass them on to others. Thank you for this wonderful service to humanity.” ~ Karen






"Some readers are going to snort at the idea of making so much over a hackneyed proverb like “Don’t cry over spilt milk.” I know it is trite, commonplace, a platitude. I know you have heard it a thousand times. But I also know that these hackneyed proverbs contain the very essence of the distilled wisdom of all ages. They have come out of the fiery experience of the human race and have been handed down through countless generations. If you were to read everything that has ever been written about worry by the great scholars of all time, you would never read anything more basic or more profound than such hackneyed proverbs as “Don’t cross your bridges until you come to them” and “Don’t cry over spilt milk.” If we only applied those two proverbs--instead of snorting at them--we wouldn’t need this book at all. In fact, if we applied most of the old proverbs, we would lead almost perfect lives. However, knowledge isn’t power until it is applied; and the purpose of this book is to remind you of what you already know and to kick you in the shins and inspire you to do something about applying it." ~ Dale Carnegie
