I love this series: A Song of Ice and Fire is my 2nd favourite book series EVER, and here is a "review" of book 1: "A Game of Thrones". I hope you enjoy this episode!
After over a month, I'm back. Today with a "back to basics" episode, where I talk about a book... specifically a book I read last week from Michael Crichton. I hope you enjoy it, cause I sure did have fun recording this for you. See you next week!
So many things to talk about and so little time Well... this is me catching you guys up on everything that has been going on lately, plus letting you all know about the next events.
Today our special guest is Thais Queiroz. She is also one of the owners of JUST4You Personal English and, just like last week, we are in for a treat with so many stories. All the way From Los Angeles we had a very interesting conversation and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
A very special guest for the very first episode of the 2022 season of Think Onward.

I hope you enjoy our conversation.

I'm so excited for being able to share this great thing with you guys. Hopefully, you'll appreciate it at least 50% of how much I appreciate it.
Hey, everyone. So glad you're here listening to this Podcast.

It is one of the most important things we can know about ourselves: how we are feeling. In today's episode I try to identify details about my situation and maybe come up with things that might help you as well.
So many projects! Here's one you had no idea about me. It's good (I think), but don't laugh too hard, ok?
The RANDOMNESS Book [from medical school to The Big Bang Theory]. Yes, believe it or not, that's the name of a notebook I have and where I place all things I learn. Curious? Please... check it out.
Yeah... no offense to the other guests who were previously here, but this is by far the best one of all: my lovely wife Rebeca Ollegario. After 35 episodes she's back with new ideas and things to say to all of us. I know you'll enjoy!
ER is the tv show that has most impacted my decisions for the future. The show that made me wanna be a doctor. Here's why:...
This is another accountability episode. Now it's not gym related but reading (which is our stuff).
This is me creating accountability towards a very difficult topic for me: my body.
I am definitely tired of living the way I've been living... so here as some things that will change effective immediately.
The five-hour rule is a process first implemented by Benjamin Franklin for constant and deliberate learning. It involves spending one hour a day or five hours a week learning, reflecting and experimenting. Reading is just the starting point for learning.
One thousand, four hundred and sixty...
that's the number of days Rebeca and I are married. And TODAY (September 15th), is our anniversary. Other than that, there are news I'd like to share with you on today's episode.
People have so many different recipes to avoid being frustrated. In my opinion it's not a realistic thing. Frustration is something we need to deal with, and this is how I do it.
Hello, everyone... this is me suggesting stuff I like. Normally books and productivity hacks, today TV series and movies. I hope you enjoy it all.
You know those weeks you cannot have anything done? Well... we all go through something like that.
Why Canada? This is something people ask me basically every single week. I think it's time you guys understand how Canada came to be part of my life.
I was all over the place for this week's episode. I couldn't figure out which topic to cover, so I decided talking about all of them. LOL! Hope you enjoy.
As an English Second Language Speaker, there're maybe one thing or two I can share with you about learning, studying, and practicing a second language. I hope this podcast is good for your English journey.
I can easily say this is the best book I have read in 2021. It might have been the best book I have read in my entire life. Doctor Atul Gawande is a surgeon who wrote this #1 New York Times Bestseller and today I ready the introduction so you can know why this books is so excellent.
So many days go by when I do feel productive or when I am not productive at all. Is that really the end of the world? I mean... why do we think, sometimes, that being productive all the time is so important. Do you have demands like Jeff Bezos? Is your daily schedule as tight as Elon Musk's? Probably not, so don't be so harsh on yourself.
In a happy and incredibly full of things to do week, I present this episode recorded with the intention of encouraging you to go after what you wish in life... I hope you like this episode and continue to follow us every week.
Ben Rector (singer and song writer) has a song called "Old Friends". He makes a point of being great making new friends, but it's impossible to make old friends... It all made me think about the way we have been dealing with our social interactions, and how we have become distant/aloof during this pandemic moment.
The past month of may I've read four different books, and with their different characteristics they all had something to add to my life and the way I think. I share a little bit of each of these books to you today on this podcast.
Franz Kafka, novelist who died in June 3rd, 1924, very famous and important in international literature, wrote this impressive, full of fantastic and symbolism novela... but I had never heard of him before (shame on me). "The Metamorphosis" is his most important work and I sat down to start read and could only get up once I finished. Let's talk about this novela.

This is probably one of the happiest episodes I've recorded. I share a personal thing along with the guidance to Admission and Acceptance to a Canadian university as an International Student. I hope this is helpful. Enjoy!!!
Anxiety looks like a 21st century problem, or a 1st world problem. Nonetheless, it is a real problem. For the past 3 weeks I have been handling these issues and today I share them all with you. It's a different episode but I still hope you find some value on what I speak.
Listening to Podcasts is something we all enjoy and that's why we're here. In case you would like to broaden your podcast experience, here are the podcasts I listen to the most... my top 5, if you will. I hope you enjoy and continue with me every week.
Having passion about things is something lots of people don't realize how important it is.
I, for one, am passionate about so many different topics and subjects... sometimes it's even hard to keep track on them all. On this week's episode I talk about one of the things that define who I am: music. Enjoy!!!
This is another "weird" and short episode.
I don't intend to be insightful, only to be a source of hope if you go through the same thing.
Insomnia is a serious problem which many people go through. However, some people might just have a different sleep schedule which might lead them to a bad sleeping habit.
No time, brotha!
I ran out of time... twice: my Podcast host provided me with limited monthly time, free time. I have only 8 minutes left until Friday, and that's why today's episode is an in between one, with no specific topic. But don't be alarmed; we'll be back to our regular programming next Wednesday... and with a guest you all love!
Today, in an unscripted episode, it's just you and me. I open my heart and talk about some little things I found out to be extremely important during this time we're living as a society. It may sound a little down... but I expect to be 100% next time! Enjoy, people... thank you so much for listening.
Pri is great! Probably the one person more talkative than me. But let's be honest: people like her are the best ones to be on podcasts, right? We both talk about many things on this episode: from hardcover books to pocket versions; from not working from home during the pandemic to attending church online. It's a fun ride, and I hope you also share the feeling I had... we are gonna have to do it again.
Hey, y'all... on this week's episode I explain how I got into a pre-med program at MRU. Also, I talk a little about the reasons and when the decision to immigrate to Canada took place. Enjoy... and if you do, please: spread the word so we can continue to expand our community,

On this week's episode I start one thing I wish to do this year: a "book review", without actually reviewing the book, but reviewing the story and/or the topics on the book. This was my first reading of 2021, back in the first couple of days of January.
