The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
I’m not an expert and that’s not a bad thing because it means there is more room to experience, grow, and learn. I know some things. There are lessons I’ve learned, the experiences I have had, and discoveries I have made through education, life events, and just observing the world around me. Over time I have developed a certain level of competence and confidence. With that confidence, it came to me to share. Why share? Because I believe that many
Just because you know something and can do something easily doesn’t mean that’s how it is for everyone. The written word comes easily to me. I sit down at my keyboard and start tapping away, the words come and my thoughts take me to many interesting places. Some of those places are totally fantasy, invented of characters, situations, and places in my head. These get turned into my works of fiction. Others become articles about mindfulness, conscious reality creation, positivity,

Good can be applied to any number of things in your life, both tangible and intangible. Negativity is bad. Bad can be applied to any number of things in your life, both tangible and intangible. When it comes to feeling, I think I can safely say that most of us desire to feel

Knowing how little we know is extremely important. Why? Because there will always be something new to learn. There are new experiences to be had. New people to be met. How many languages do you speak? Do you know how to fence with a sword in each hand?
Depression is a liar. When you suffer from depression, you often deal with a ton of conflicting feelings and emotions that seem completely illogical, and can leave you feeling worthless, lost, and even unloved. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. If you cope with depression, this may seem untrue, but it is important for me to tell you that. Even when it is at its worst, making you feel just awful, you are not alone. I have struggled with depression for most
Ignorance may be bliss, but education is empowerment. The more we learn, the more we become capable of. The more abilities we develop, the more skills we hone, the abler we are to change the world for the better. One of the failings of many of our leaders is their desire to keep us ignorant. It’s a matter of their retention of control to keep us reliant on them for our understanding of certain matters. Rather than empower, they prefer
You learn something new every day. This is not just some cliché phrase, it’s literally true. Some things we learn are huge and life changing, but most are minute and easy to overlook. One of the greatest joys of life is that there is always something new to be learned. Because there is always something new to learn, virtually no situation is impossible or irreparable. We simply may be lacking in the necessary knowledge. Learning is often tied in with
How do I know if I am on the right path? This is probably the most basic, yet most challenging question to ask. The answer is both amazingly simple, and yet fairly complicated. Pathwalking is making choices about living life, in order to work to consciously create our personal reality as we want it to be. Rather than simply going along with life and letting whatever happens, happen; as we walk our chosen paths we strive to be present and
Pathwalking can be fraught with many challenges. I long ago came to believe that nothing worth having is ever easy. But there is a difference between challenge and struggle. Challenge involves growth and proactive change, while struggle is stagnation and reactive change. Challenge is deciding to change, while struggle is forced. Many of the challenges in Pathwalking are due to outside influences, some which we can control and some which we cannot. Recognizing this is the first step towards working
You are in control of more than you believe yourself to be. This can be a particularly difficult concept to believe, but that doesn’t lessen the truth of it. You are in control over how you think, how you feel, and how you act. I know that sometimes it feels like that control is really, really limited. Truth is, however, that the only limitations are those that you yourself place. Otherwise, you have far more power and capability to change
