Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
This is not what I expected. How often in your life have you either thought or said these words? For me, it has been far more frequently than I might have wanted. Pathwalking is about finding, choosing and then walking a path in life. You dictate that path, you make the choices along it. Of course no path is perfectly straight. They all come with twists and turns, obstacles to be overcome, avoided or directly dealt with. The best way
In the now we are in control of our own feelings, thoughts and actions. Right now, at this very moment, I can choose how I want to feel. I get to choose if I want to worry about future events or reminisce about past events. I get to choose, right now, what I want to think about. I choose my actions at this moment. Society obsesses with both the past and the future. We think of the past that times
“What do you want to do?” A respected career coach asked me this question. My answer, at the time was, “I’m not entirely sure.” That’s not the truth, though. Why didn’t I tell her what I want? Why did I hold back? How come I didn’t admit to what it is I want to do? The answer is indicative of what it is I need to be working on. However, I want to provide some context first. This was at
Welcome to another Monday. Yes, the weekend is over. How do you choose to face the work week? This is so much more within our control than we realize. Since we are each in control of our own emotional state, as such we each get to choose how we will face the day, and that can totally set the tone for how we face the coming week. I know some of the arguments that can made against this perspective. It’s
Writing is my passion. While my favorite things to write are fantasy, sci-fi and Steampunk, I enjoy writing EVERYTHING. Give me a topic, tell me how many words you want and I will write! I totally need and want more paid writing gigs. But I digress. Over the years I’ve written brochures, blogs, text for websites and many other business-centric pieces. For a time I even had my own company for this purpose, though its focus was a bit broader.
It is time to take a stand. Full disclosure: I am a white, straight, non-Christian male. And I believe that EVERYONE deserves equal rights. I do not care in the least if you are white, black, Hispanic, Asian or what-have-you; it does not matter if you are male or female or gender fluid or no gender at all; it doesn’t matter if you are straight, gay, bi, omnisexual or any other option; it is of no matter to me if
Over the past couple of years I have started to find several four-leafed clovers every summer. Most of my life this was something I had never done. Now, I find them a few times a year. One important point, however, to consider. I find them because I take a moment to look for them. How many patches of clover do you encounter along your way? Do you stop and examine them to see if there are any that are not
Love is the ultimate expression of positivity. We live in a world where love often takes a back seat to fear, to ignorance, to terror, to shame, and ultimately to hate. Yet love is something every single one of us needs, to the same degree as we need air and food and water. Love is often made out to be this grandiose, monstrous thing, often hard to come by, hard to keep, and hard to maintain. Nothing could be further
I have recently realized that there is tremendous importance in addressing and altering old, outdated, underlying beliefs. Pathwalking addresses the idea of taking control of my own life and my own destiny, and choosing and walking my own unique path. One of the key things I return to in this process is that consciousness creates reality. It is possible to manifest an amazing life, if I take the time to think, feel, and take inspired action to make it happen.
Living in the now can be as positive an experience as you make it. Living in the now allows us to only be focused on our immediate needs, our immediate surroundings, and ourselves. Living in the now lets us ultimately focus on pretty much anything and everything we want to. What’s the difference? When you live in the past you can really easily get caught up in all the “what ifs”. What if I had done ‘x’? What if I
