Will You Get Uncomfortable?

Getting uncomfortable on purpose seems kind of backwards. Yet when we leave our comfort zones and work our lives away from familiarity, that’s precisely what we’re doing. I hate this part. There is nothing more disconcerting than effecting a major change in your life.  Really, how crazy is it to move away from the comfortable, on purpose, in order to create something that may be better…or, possibly, might be worse? But that is how consciousness creates reality.  We make our

What do You do With Your Personal Demons?

We all have our personal demons.  They manifest in different ways, sometimes they are subtle, sometimes overt.  They are the things that keep us from going to the places we wish to go in life. Personal demons can manifest as the devil on your shoulder, the voice inside your head telling you that you’re not good enough, smart enough, worthy or deserving.  Brain weasels or brain squirrels, whichever rodent you identify, are another manifestation of the personal demon. This can

How do you Savor the Moment?

Savor the moment.  Be grateful, and excited, and enjoy it, here and now. As you are reading this my annual vacation is drawing to an end.  I have been enjoying a week of rest and relaxation with friends and chosen family, unwinding and de-stressing.  Fun, good company, and an opportunity to hit the reset button. Rather than become bummed out that my vacation is over, though, I am going to savor the moment.  From there, I am going to take

Change is Opportunity

Change is opportunity. Since change is inevitable, and we can choose to embrace change or not, we get to decide if it is bad luck…or an opportunity. How does this work?  Change is opportunity because it is a chance for something new and different.  It might be a fresh start, it might be a shift, great or small, that can be used to take on a new direction or do different things. I believe that if more people saw change

Is There an Albatross Around Your Neck?

Is there an albatross around your neck? What does that even mean?  First, the albatross has been a sign of good luck to sailors for centuries.  As such, killing one is considered to be bad luck.  In the old poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, because the narrator killed an albatross, his fellow sailors made him wear it around his neck. As such, it references the notion that you have a burden weighing you down. 

What Does The Future is Now Mean?

The future is now. I always thought that an odd phrase.  But then, when you take the Law of Attraction into account, it makes perfect sense. Consciousness creates reality.  In being conscious of the here-and-now, the future is made. If our present reality is the result of our past thoughts, feelings, and actions, then by being wholly in the now and totally aware and present we create the future.  As such, the future is now. I have spent this week

What is My Motivation?

What is my motivation? This is not just a question an actor asks of their director…it is a question about life.  What is it that motivates me to do the things I do? I am a writer and editor.  Writing is a craft I have been working on since I was nine years old, and truly focused on for about twenty years now.  My first editor taught me a tremendous amount about not just editing, but writing to its core,

How Do I Empower My Reality?

I need to empower my reality. Every week I write about how consciousness creates reality.  I get into detail, and explore the various ways in which this works.  This is something I have been developing and exploring for many years now. The grand idea behind this is the Law of Attraction, the idea that like attracts like.  When we take our thought, power it up with feeling, then use that to act intentionally, we do the work to manifest reality

How do I Truly FEEL Grateful?

It is my desire to express how grateful I am for many, many things.  I am just not feeling it right now. Why am I not feeling grateful?  Because my home country is being taken over by a bunch of ultra-selfish, uncompassionate, self-promoting douchebags-of-holding.  Someone in my life continues to disappoint me all-too-frequently.  I know I am capable of more in this life, and yet I am my own worst enemy. Consciousness creates reality.  I write about this three times

How Does Surrender Work?

Surrender has always been a challenge for me. For much of my life, I have been something of a control freak.  Over the years that has grown much more subtle, largely because I’ve been working on being more present and aware in the here-and-now. But I still prefer to be in control.  I do the driving, I choose to take less-than-well-traveled paths, and I prefer to be in control of my own destiny. Unsurprisingly, conscious reality creation is rife with
