Hi. I’m Tim Denning, and if you’re struggling I’ve got your back.
I’ve failed a bunch of times and had some massive lows. I’ve turned these lows into a mini transformation, and in 2011 I became obsessed with personal development.
Initially, my goal was to understand the mind so I could turn my own life around. Once I achieved that, I wanted others to experience the same transformation. Let me help you experience yours.

Today’s quick tech tip….
Get the scoop on Windows 11 security directly from Microsoft
Microsoft has released a comprehensive free ebook explaining in detail how virtually every facet of Windows 11 security works.
This ebook is definitely worth the read if you have even a passing interest in Windows security.
You have three option for reading it:
1 – You can read it directly on the Microsoft website right here…
2 – You can print out a hard copy, or…
3 – You can download a PDF copy to your computer or mobile device.
Note: You’ll find icons for printing and/or downloading the ebook in the top-right corner of the browser window.
In my humble opinion, this is a fantastic ebook that’s well worth the read if you’re interested in getting a broad overview of Windows 11 security.
