Positivity in the Face of “Reality”

Is it possible to find positivity in reality, given current world affairs? Yes. Let’s face it. There is very little good news about the world right now. Australia is burning, and it’s pretty scary. President Trump is threatening to commit war crimes and has illegally assassinated a foreign leader. Climate Change is not being addressed as the threat that it should be. The ultra-wealthy are getting richer at the expense of pretty much everyone else. I could go on, but

Living my Philosophy

Living my philosophy is an ongoing practice. Some days are easy, other days take far more work. When I began the process of Pathwalking, my original intent was to create a subject matter I could write about weekly. It wasn’t long before this evolved into my personal life philosophy. The more I wrote, the more I desired to share it with the world. This began as a self-directed journey through life, employing conscious reality creation to find and create the

Be You for You, Not for Them

You should be you for you and not for them. It is perfectly acceptable to put yourself and your paths in life first. When you are striving to find, create, and live a life of your own choosing, be sure that you are doing it for YOU, and not for someone else’s belief in who you are or who you should be. It is not a bad thing, nor selfish, to put yourself first in your own life. Yet you

Doing, Positivity, and the Life You Desire

Doing opens the door to having. Positivity is a key to that door. Do you have a dream? A goal? Is there something that you really want to make/have/or be in your life? What are you doing to make it happen? When I was a kid and saw The Empire Strikes Back for the first time, this line from Yoda always resonated with me: “Do, or do not, there is no try.” Yoda was not, by any stretch of the

The Philosophy of Pathwalking

I would like to explore with you the details of my personal life philosophy – Pathwalking. When I first began to write about this idea, it was just meant to be a weekly post to my blog. I needed a topic, so I decided to begin to write about how I seek to make my own way in life. The name Pathwalking came about for two reasons. First, because of the idea that life is an ongoing journey, so you

Who Should You Prove Yourself To?

It’s all-too-easy to get caught up in living up to the expectations of others, real and imagined. You want to be a good friend, lover, parent, sibling, child, human being, etc. Then, looking at the actions of others and seeing both good and bad, you hold yourself up to

Does Mindfulness Empower?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   Mindfulness empowers you. The world appears to be going mad. Every single day something new happens that defies logic, and it feels like hope is being stripped away from us. This is what they want. When you feel hopeless, that disempowers you. When you feel disempowered, they believe that it empowers them to run roughshod over everyone. I read the news and get infuriated, depressed, and start

What is Intention?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   What is Intention? Intention is focus. It is the focus on the action that creates reality. Mindfulness is about knowing your own thoughts and feelings. With knowledge of your thoughts and feelings, you can take actions to consciously create reality. But the actions need focus, direction, or specifically intention. So what is intent?  Dictionary.com defines it thus: Intent (noun) something that is intended; purpose; design; intention the act or fact of intending, as to do something meaning or significance. When it

How Is Positivity Worthwhile?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   Positivity cannot be created by thought alone.  Neither can it be forced. One of the key tenets of the self-help movement has been the numerous concepts presented to us about the “power of positive thinking”.  What many take away from this notion is that if you think positive, you will create a better life for yourself. The problem is, that’s only half the battle, so to speak. 

Five Truths About Heart and Head

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   The heart and head will sometimes pull you in different, opposing directions. Your feelings will try to take you one way, while your thoughts attempt to take you another.  Oddly, despite these both coming from you, they can make you feel as if you are an outside observer. When you can reach that place, and be the detached, outside observer, you can best determine how to synchronize
