The Positivity of Common Ground

Finding common ground is an excellent way to develop pathways of positivity. Do you like feeling negative? Does anyone actually prefer to feel angry, frustrated, sad, distressed, and unhappy? I know don’t…and based on an utterly unscientific analysis of my friends, I really think that, generally, nobody does. The world is overflowing with various entities finding and creating divisions among people. Whether physical or not, pretty much all divisions among people are completely artificial. Sure, there are different genders, skin

Your Path is Gone

What happens when the unexpected occurs and the path you have been traveling in life is suddenly no more? For many, once they find themselves on the path they have chosen for their life, this is apropos of how it makes them feel: “The way is clear / the light is good / I have no fear/ nor no one should.” – Prologue, Into the Woods But then, what happens when, like an unexpected bolt of lightning from the sky,

Life is Unpredictable

Be cause life is unpredictable, what you know or think you know can change drastically. Recently my friends and I have experienced an almost unbelievable amount of life changes. Before we knew it, a great many of the things we knew changed, and changed drastically. This has been emotional, disturbing, and incredibly difficult to wrap one’s head around. It has been a highly surrealistic example of how much life is unpredictable. What you know at this moment as the reality

How Do You Know What Your Best “You” Is?

How do you know what your best you is? This is one of those paradoxes that are super-simple yet infinitely complex. I am a firm believer in the notion of conscious reality creation. I am convinced that I am empowered to take my personal illusion of reality and shape it to best fit me. There are a lot of challenges and obstacles along any given path, but rather than let life live me I want to live life. So I

Positivity in the Moment

Finding positivity in the moment Nobody can be positive all the time, but moments of positivity can be a tremendous boost on your psyche. Why do I write about positivity every week? Because negativity is all too easy to come across, and difficult to resist.   Do I believe you should never feel negative? No. Shit happens. There are days where life sucks. Bad things occur, people get sick and die, friends turn on you – and that’s just the

Doesn’t Everyone Know That/Can’t Everyone Do That?

Just because you know something and can do something easily doesn’t mean that’s how it is for everyone. The written word comes easily to me. I sit down at my keyboard and start tapping away, the words come and my thoughts take me to many interesting places. Some of those places are totally fantasy, invented of characters, situations, and places in my head. These get turned into my works of fiction. Others become articles about mindfulness, conscious reality creation, positivity,

An Opportunity to Restart

There are many times where options for restarting or starting anew offer you an opportunity to find or create positivity. Today is the start of the Jewish New Year. L’Shana Tovah to all of those who celebrate. Like the Gregorian New Year that we celebrate every January 1st, this day presents a specific opportunity to begin anew, make a fresh start, and as such to find and/or create some new positivity in your life. You get any number of calendar

Pathwalking 404 – Path Not Found (Not Normal!)

I Am Not Normal I know it, embrace it, and love who it makes me as such. When my wife and I first began dating, I think it may have been the second date when she looked at me and said, “You are an unapologetic geek.” “Yup.” I had, long before, accepted how much of a geek I am. This has been a recurrent theme across my life. There was, of course, a time when I didn’t accept this aspect

I Get to Choose How to Feel Today

How I will feel today is up to me It is totally my decision whether positivity or negativity will prevail. Every single day is new and different from the day before. No matter how much of a routine you may have, no two days are alike. Why does that matter? Because it means that every day is a choice. How you will feel today is wholly and entirely up to you to decide. Frankly, I think that’s awesome. Why? Because

Recognizing the Limitations of Your Path

Many limitations are artificial and can be overcome…but not all of them. For the most part, you are told that there are an overwhelming number of limitations in this life. In order to do ‘X’ or to be ‘Y’ you must come from money, have the right connections, be beautiful, or meet some other standards – or else you are limited. If you do not meet these standards you are unworthy and undeserving and the limitations will keep you down
