What do you do if the path you are on crumbles beneath your feet? First – yes, this can happen. While Pathwalking is something that you control there are always factors that can have a direct impact on your chosen path that you have no control over. Perfect example – your job. Whether you work for yourself or for someone else, the job you choose to work is a part of the path you are walking. One of my goals

I just want to cocoon in my bed. We all have days like this. No matter how hard we try to find positivity, no matter how much we work to maintain a good head space, nothing seems to work. I am walking upon the path I have chosen, and despite knowing that there will be bumps and twists and turns and obstacles along the way I am finding negotiating my path particularly challenging. I am being effected by things far

They don’t have the answers. Who are they? They are the people who tell you what is normal and not normal. The people who seek out extremes like black vs white, male vs female, rich vs poor and so on. The people who point out flaws, problems, things we should be distrustful of. Anyone who tells you if you do not follow in their same way you’re wrong. I don’t have the answers. The best teachers and therapists I have

Welcome to the new year! So, as promised, I have begun to keep a goal log. What is a goal log? That’s really good question. This is my take on the answer. I went looking to find if there was some sort of an app for my phone that would handle this task as I foresaw it. Certainly I found a couple options, but nothing quite spoke to me. Also – I didn’t care to pay for an app at

The coming new year often brings with it reflections on the year that has been. It is important to acknowledge what has been. Denying the past leads to incredibly dangerous places sometimes, so it is good to be mindful of it. The other danger is living in the past. Because change can be so scary, there are many people who want what was. They want what they feel nostalgia for, they want that happier, more innocent time. Truth is, that

Discipline for me does not come easily. I have always had issues with self discipline. Whether it is my diet, my writing and editing time or anything else requiring focus and attention – I have regularly found it challenging to hold to what needs to happen to get where I want to go. This week I will share with you my plans, and work out with you what actions I need to take in order to create the discipline I

Discipline for some does not come easily. I have always had issues with disciplining myself. Whether it was my diet, my writing and editing time or anything else requiring focus and attention – I have regularly found it challenging to hold to what needs to happen to get where I want to go. I have made a lot of effort in this department to address this problem. Acknowledging my lack of discipline is the first step, but admittedly there have

Sometimes you might be wrong. Every choice we make will produce an effect of some sort. While we desire a good effect or a successful outcome – from time to time we won’t get it. This is a perfectly normal and ok thing. Everybody makes mistakes. The key is what do you do with your mistakes? Some people plod through. They continue along that path, despite its obvious problems. Tenacity can be a good thing, but it can also be

Giving is not necessarily a physical thing. Giving can certainly involve things. But I find that the intangibles we give are often far more powerful than the tangibles. We give of our time, we give from our hearts, we give advice, we give opinions. All of these intangibles can carry a lot of weight. Giving is important to Pathwalking because it is a part of our living in an abundant universe. The ability to give is a sign that we

Consider reality. What we call reality is not the same for everyone. We might believe that it is, but in truth it’s really not. My reality is nothing like yours, or his, or hers, or anyone else’s, really. Even those we are closest to do not share our reality. Oh unquestionably they intersect, but that doesn’t make them the same. Let’s take Thanksgiving for example. For some this is a day where family comes together and eats much tasty food.
