How do you remain optimistic and focused on the path in the face of injustice? When you see that the world seems to be going mad, and the bliss of ignorance seems to be reigning supreme, how do you keep at it? The short answer is – you simply do. You have a path. You have made a choice. Keep at it. The longer answer is – some days it feels as though nothing you do will matter. You watch

Manifestation can be quite the paradox. On the one hand it is astoundingly simple. On the other hand, it is intricately complex. It is in fact both. I believe, however, that the hardest part of manifestation is the basic idea of what it is you want. I know that a lot of people see this hooky-spooky bs. New-agey mumbo-jumbo. However, I have first-hand experience with making this actually work, and I know that it is more than just possibility, but

How can you tell if you are straying from your path…or if your path is straying from you? This is a new idea I am exploring. How can you tell when you are off your path, or if in fact it is your path that is off? While you may have chosen a given path, as I have mentioned time and again paths will shift. They will be filled with bumps and twists and turns. Seldom are they straight, and

No is not necessarily a negative. Sometimes along your path, you will have reasons to say no. While we often associate no with negatives, that is not always the case. There will be times when you need to say no because saying yes will actually lead you down the wrong path. We live in a world full of extremes. Left and right, liberal and conservative, short and tall, attractive and ugly…take your pick. But in truth, most of us live

Pathwalking is not just an intellectual concept, it is also a spiritual and an emotional endeavor. I have stated rather frequently that to walk any given path you have to not only think about it, but you have to feel it, and you have to desire it. What’s the difference between the intellectual, spiritual and emotional? The intellectual is the easiest to examine. This is your thought process, this is your continued education. Intellect is a matter of learning, it

Even though Pathwalking is for yourself, sometimes you will encounter guides along your way. Yes, I recognize that this is an inherent paradox. I often have talked about how Pathwalking is a solo process. And yet now I am putting it out there that from time to time you will encounter guides. What about being wary of outside influences? Not every outside influence is a bad thing. The issue with outside influences comes when you allow them to dominate your

Why are you on this path? The path you are on, right now, as you read this, why are you on it? Did you choose this path for yourself? Did someone else choose it for you? Did you stumble upon this path, or was there effort and conscious direction when you decided to travel upon it? I have probably asked all of these questions before. If they are being repeated, that is because they are so deeply important. If you

During the course of Pathwalking, I have frequently spoken about creating your own life. In walking your own path, one of the ideas is to control your destiny, and manifest the life you most want. There are obstacles, distractions, problems, complications, bumps and twists and turns along any given path. The journey, I have often stressed, is of equal if not greater import than the goal. Living in the here and now is vitally important to the end goal of

It never ceases to amaze me how readily I can lose my focus. For a while I can be a champion. I can successfully manifest what I want, no question, no difficulty, I can do it. I can see all the possibility, all the probability, all the reality of what I am capable of. I am amazed, excited, enthusiastic, and ready to tackle the world and everything that could possibly get in my way. And then it is gone. I

Positivity is vitally important to Pathwalking. Last week I began to explore this, and discussed at length when you know you are feeling predominantly negative what you need to do. After you identify the what and how and why, and determine which aspects of these you have any control over, you proceed to find a way to change the emotion you are feeling. As I stated before, the means that works for dealing with this today may not work at
