The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
Lost days happen from time to time. There were plans. Ideas were plotted out. And then, things happened…and before I know it the day has flown by. It’s after five, and everything I have planned out hasn’t come to pass. Then, just to add a little more fun to it for my own entertainment, I have been struggling with writing this post. Before I get annoyed, or start along a downward spiral, it’s important to acknowledge that lost days will
Nobody is alone. Everyone goes through rough times. We all hit patches of discomfort, anger, sadness, loneliness. But it is important you see that you are not, truly, alone. Life can be a real struggle. For some people, that struggle takes on a lot of elements that most people cannot see. Mental illness is seldom, if ever, a thing you can simply “get over.” It requires attention, it requires thought, and though it will feel like a lone struggle, the
These brain squirrels running around inside my head can be a real annoyance sometimes. Brain squirrels, or for some people brain weasels, are those annoying little rodents running around and causing dis-ease, doubt, distractions, and various negatives to get in the way of just about everything. Working with them can be challenging. I think everyone copes with this in some form or other. No matter our intent or general thoughts, feelings and actions, these random, little, mostly annoying thoughts just
Discipline has never been my strength. For a long time now I have remarked about my frequent lack of discipline. While this is certainly something to take into consideration in regards to how I live my life, it is time to make another change. Consciousness creates reality. If I say I have no discipline, that’s an expression of how I feel, ergo…surprise surprise, no discipline. Like attracts like. When I can be disciplined to do a thing, I tend to
Identity has been an interesting challenge throughout my life. As a small child, as much as I can recall, I was a loner. I had little to nothing in common with the other kids in my neighborhood, for several reasons I don’t need to go into here. Suffice it to say, much of my time was spent playing pretend on my own, or coming up with cool adventures for my Star Wars action figures in my own variation of the
I have been working on better quieting my mind. Yes, I know that as human beings, we are ALWAYS thinking, always processing stuff. I also know that we are capable of finding stillness and peace, and turning the brain “off” for periods of time. This is something I am currently working on doing more. Why? Because it’s not, at least for me, about stopping thinking. It’s about getting the inner dialogue – specifically the uncomplimentary aspects – to be silent.
Controlling emotions is particularly challenging. In order to manifest anything, you need to think, feel and act upon it. Thought is only the beginning. Without emotion behind it, you will remain where you are now. All this week I have been focused on the same notion. Positivity examined the power of words, and why want, a statement of lack, should be replaced by desire, a statement of abundance. In Pathwalking I explored how to go about changing feelings. Altering my
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
Letting go has a great deal of significance in our lives. When we learn to let go of the things that do not serve us, it becomes far easier to cross the bridges between our worlds, walk our chosen paths, and consciously create reality. We are all energy at our core. All energy vibrates at various frequencies. High energy, high frequency is stronger than low energy, low frequency. High frequencies are positive vibes, low frequencies are negative vibes. Hence where
What are you passionate about? This is a question that a lot of people tend to neglect. They go about their lives, doing the things that they do, some for themselves, some for other people. The answer to that question is a shrug of the shoulders, a tilt of the head, possibly even a thoughtful, “Hm.” Tony Robbins ends every section of his Personal Power series with, “Live with Passion.” This has nothing to do with physical and sexual intimacy,
