McGill is on a quest to prove that life is still beautiful, and that all people have the power to have a better life and world — NOW.


I am a simple person, who as a boy, ran around barefoot on a dirt-road in Alabama — dreaming of being a writer. I am probably best known as a writer of pithy sayings and small, simple aphorisms which have found their way into tens-of-thousands of publications, including by some of the biggest publishers in the world. I love to inspire people and show them their inner-beauty. My mission is to cause people to consider kinder ways in which we could do business, structure our relationships and treat the world."
