The Ramblings of the Titanium Don

Do You Stay the Course or is it Time to Leave This Path?

How do you know if you should still stay the course or leave the path? I’m feeling frustrated. That frustration is directly impacting what I’m doing. But more than that, it’s also taking a toll on my self-image, self-worth, and other thoughts and emotions. Of course, it all comes down to money. Like many people, I have a love/hate relationship with money. I love having it and hate being a slave to it. The constant discomfort based on how much

Is My Path Just About Me and Me Alone?

My path is only mine – but it’s not just about myself. For over a decade I have been writing about my ongoing process of finding, creating, and choosing my own path in this life. This has had many ups and downs and challenges along the way. But since truly starting to walk one path of my choosing or another, I have been more content, more satisfied, and frankly happier with the life I have been living. While some might

Why Am I Afraid to Succeed?

How does the question “what if I succeed?” evoke subconscious fear? This question has been plaguing my path for a long time. Every time I work on a path I desire to follow – something happens that causes me to abandon it, stop giving it my full attention, and/or self-sabotage. This is, of course, not conducive to success. Why? Why do I always do this? How come I am constantly getting in my own way? What causes me to get

I Don’t Need You to Understand My Path

It’s my path, my life. Nobody else needs to understand – nor approve of – the choices and decisions I make. Like most people, there are numerous choices and decisions I have made along the way that were imperfect. Less-than good. Wrong. Bad. And worse. Part of the human experience is the choices and decisions you make. Some of them will lead to amazing discoveries, incredible experiences, and ultimately success. But then, some will lead to awful discoveries, lousy experiences,

You Will Walk More Than One Path

You Will Walk More Than One Path Though it may seem daunting, this is a really good thing. When you are working with conscious reality creation and choosing a path for your life, it is important to recognize that there is not just more than one path, but that you will choose different paths at different times. But this is a very good thing. Why? Because what you desire for your life in your twenties is not going to be

How do you recognize if you’re walking the right Path?

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

What are challenges vs struggles with Pathwalking?

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

Why Walk Your Own Path? You Control More Than You Think

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

Pathwalking 281 – Intention

Intention is the reality of control. When you take an intentional action, you have a purpose, and are not just doing some thing for the sake of doing the thing.  Intent means there is a plan to gain something from the action taken. I have been writing more or less since I began Pathwalking that one of the main reasons to walk one’s own path is to take control of your own destiny.  I want to create a unique, interesting

Pathwalking 280

Balancing living in the now with our overall perception of time is an interesting challenge. As I concluded last week, I have been thoroughly indoctrinated into the societal obsession with time, and my work to withdraw from that perception is a challenge.  But because I desire to consciously create the reality I most want to have, I am doing anything and everything I can think of to more regularly live in the here and now. What tools do I have
