The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
Everybody will fall from time to time. How you get back up, however, is a choice. Last week, I began a couple of new freelance gigs. This has been excellent. I am enjoying doing both. They are quite different from one another – and each completely in my wheelhouse. What’s more, they feel very much as if they are part of my path. However, in getting adjusted to a new timetable and the requirements of these new gigs – I
Go Confidently and Choose Your Path Confidence, real or an act, can have a massive impact on how you walk a given path. When you are walking a path that you have chosen in the process of Pathwalking, it is good to go confidently along the way. Whenever you are tentative and uncertain, it will have an impact on the work that you are doing. It will send a message to the Universe that you are not sure of the
Confidence goes a long ways towards building positivity. When you are confident in who you are and what you do, you can create some pretty amazing things. Even if you are not a terribly confident feeling person, there are many different actions you can take that will generate confidence, and confidence in turn will develop some powerful positivity. First there is posture. I know that I tend to slouch. A lot. Sitting and standing more erect exudes confidence physically. Also,
Today will be whatever you make it be. It’s far too easy to approach Monday and the traditional start of the work week with distress, trepidation, displeasure, and unhappiness. There is an entire culture of Monday woe in this society, which has been and continues to be capitalized on, and as such gets reinforced. Does anyone want Monday to suck? I am pretty sure the answer is NO. I don’t really know anyone who wants to be miserable, who wants
Everyone prefers to feel good over feeling bad. Finding positivity is about finding ways to feel good. We live in a society that feeds on a steady diet of negativity. Fear is a tool employed by many differently “leaders” to keep people in line, and sensationalism sells and gets more clicks on social media. This can make it far easier to live in fear and negativity than to find positivity. Also, it’s Monday…so most of us are going to work
Positivity can be found anywhere we look. There are all sorts of thing, big and small, that can bring about positivity. Sometimes they are easier to see than others. We are alive and breathing. We have amazing technology at our fingertips. We are capable of loving and being loved. We can have, do or be pretty much anything we desire. There is sky above us and earth beneath our feet. I know that it can feel like an impossible struggle
Taking steps to get in shape can generate massive positivity. Getting in shape can also take a number of different forms. Health is not simply measured as physical, but also mental, spiritual and emotional. Giving attention to any one of these can improve our quality of life and be massively positive, while working on more than one or all of them can be hugely empowering. Everyone is familiar with processes for getting into shape physically. Diet and exercise, skin care,
Cliché though it may be, there is nothing like fresh air to clear your head. I like to take a few minutes during my work day to get a sun/air break. Step outside, get some fresh air, escape the stale office air and my computer. There is something cleansing, both physically and emotionally, in breathing in fresh air. It awakens the senses, it rejuvenates the soul, it opens us up to possibilities. I know that this is super-trite, but I
Joy is one of the ultimate expressions of love. We tend to not do nearly enough things that bring us joy. We believe the lie that joyful things should only come in small doses, and that it is a limited achievement that should be particularly savored. Why is this true? Because we have accepted it as so. Yet, really, it is not the truth. Joy can and should be one of the driving motivations for everything we do. Are we
One way to approach the unexpected is to look at it and consider, “This is good because…” This is one of the best mechanisms I have ever come across for redirecting negative thinking. Jen Sincero explains it in her outstanding book You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Live an Awesome Life (I cannot recommend this particular book enough). When you encounter the unexpected, this idea can totally turn it around, and give you a more
