Hey,

I’m Raphael. And the most important thing that I can say about myself is that I want everyone to win. For the past eleven years I’ve been learning about the science of goal achievement and just about every version of Happiness there is. I’ve been helping people to reach their life and relationship goals and now I’m off to conquer some new goals of my own. The one I’ve been avoiding: becoming a blogger and writer (I think of it as one thing).

This weblog, ultimately, will be a compendium of my thoughts on personal development and goal achievement: a record of my process as I learn WordPress development and the rudiments of writing.

Starting over—trying to carve out a new identity starting from zero feels absolutely banana pants. But I’m haunted by the notion that most people die with their music still in them. Can’t let that be me.
