The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
Words matter. The words we say matter. But what matters more are the words we think. In especial, those we think frequently, and those we use in reference to ourselves. Most of us are thinking constantly. Hell, for a lot of us, the very notion of turning off our brains seems totally impossible. One of the reasons why meditation is so healthy is because when we meditate it’s one of the few times we can stop the chatter. However, since
We live in a Universe of abundance. When you consider the size of the cosmos, and the billions upon billions of stars, galaxies, and infinite molecules, how could it be anything BUT abundant? I know that this seems like a lie. We are constantly being bombarded by messages of lack, scarcity, and insufficiency – but it is still an ultimate truth. You are probably wondering just what that means. So what? Why does it matter that the Universe is full
Intention requires attention. The power of intent is something we take for granted. We fail to see that we have the ability to manifest not just once in a while, not just on a special occasion or due to a dire need, but all day, every day. One of the key elements of manifestation is intention. Intent is not the starting point so much as it is the direction. What begins as an idea becomes energized when you add an
Ultimately, everybody wants to be happy. I believe that’s what we all most want. Happiness. When we are happy, we are more capable of living a complete, satisfying life. Positivity is a direct path to happiness. Happiness is one of the ultimate in positive feelings, which is why it’s so important that we find and cultivate it as much as we can. There is more than enough anger, intolerance, unhappiness and outright hatred in the world. Adding to that only
What do I want? I have been asking this question of myself for most of my adult life. It is both the single most basic question I can ask, as well as massively loaded. This is a question that can be rooted in the past, awareness in the present, or looking to the future, which complicates things further. One of the more complex issues I encounter with this question has long been its opposite. I was less sure of what
Today will be whatever you make it be. It’s far too easy to approach Monday and the traditional start of the work week with distress, trepidation, displeasure, and unhappiness. There is an entire culture of Monday woe in this society, which has been and continues to be capitalized on, and as such gets reinforced. Does anyone want Monday to suck? I am pretty sure the answer is NO. I don’t really know anyone who wants to be miserable, who wants
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
Everyone prefers to feel good over feeling bad. Finding positivity is about finding ways to feel good. We live in a society that feeds on a steady diet of negativity. Fear is a tool employed by many differently “leaders” to keep people in line, and sensationalism sells and gets more clicks on social media. This can make it far easier to live in fear and negativity than to find positivity. Also, it’s Monday…so most of us are going to work
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
Positivity can be found anywhere we look. There are all sorts of thing, big and small, that can bring about positivity. Sometimes they are easier to see than others. We are alive and breathing. We have amazing technology at our fingertips. We are capable of loving and being loved. We can have, do or be pretty much anything we desire. There is sky above us and earth beneath our feet. I know that it can feel like an impossible struggle
