The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
How I see myself is of far more importance than how other people see me. Jen Sincero said it well in You Are a Badass – Self Perception is a Zoo. It is a bunch of very different, multiple, diverse animals we keep caged up, but let run free in the world from time to time. There are at least five ways in which I see myself in this world. Different identities that I tend to show the world. The
Attachment is surprisingly persistent. What is attachment? Attachment is how we as human beings latch onto things. We become attached to our “people”, or jobs, our cars, our educations…and inevitably our identities themselves. The problem comes from being attached to a specific identity. If you are happy with who you are, here and now, then it’s not a big deal. If, however, you are seeking to make changes, then being attached to the identity you have for yourself in the
Be strong. I was having a perfectly good day. And then I read the news. That was not a good idea. How can I consciously create my own reality when I live in a world that’s so totally messed up? So, so many things happening out there that are appalling at best, then enraging, and terrifying. What’s the point? Why bother? Because I can effect change out there. I can do good things with my own life, and from there
Do it. Two simple words that have amazingly tremendous power. There is something to be said for planning. Some people need plans to do the things they do in this life. And there is equally something to be said for impulsiveness, too. Sometimes you just gotta go go go. But whatever you are looking at, action is required. That means you have to do it. For many, myself included, doing one thing led to fear that it would or could
Depression is a liar. When you suffer from depression, you often deal with a ton of conflicting feelings and emotions that seem completely illogical, and can leave you feeling worthless, lost, and even unloved. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. If you cope with depression, this may seem untrue, but it is important for me to tell you that. Even when it is at its worst, making you feel just awful, you are not alone. I have struggled with depression for most
Don’t panic! Two little words, but some of the best advice you can receive. I woke up this morning, and I was feeling pretty good. Decent night’s sleep, looking forward to taking care of some business and writing today. But then a little voice in my head reminded me of an issue currently on my plate. My heart rate began to accelerate, I got butterflies in the pit of my stomach, and my mind began racing through all the terrible,
Many of the obstacles I encounter in life are of my own creation. Everybody encounters obstacles along the way. Some are out of our control, such as weather and traffic. Many, however, only exist because we allow them to. This blog has evolved since its initial creation, in order to focus on how consciousness creates reality. I share my ideas because I know I am not alone in doing what I do. But I also share because I believe that
Empathy can better the world around us. For what it’s worth, I am an empath. What that means is that I can feel the emotions of people around me, sometimes better than I can feel my own. The difference between simply feeling empathy and being an empath is that, as an empath I ALWAYS feel things. With empathy, it is an emotion that can be switched on and off far more easily. Because I am an empath, I frequently find
I have worked any number of jobs that didn’t leave me feeling satisfied. We all have to earn a living, right? You can’t just laze about your home, on a beach, or wander aimlessly all the time, because clothing, food and shelter cost money. Also, frankly, doing nothing at all gets pretty boring pretty fast. When I started college, I remember preparing to register for my first classes. It was orientation, and I had not yet chosen my major. I
In response to a great deal of awful things from the start of this year, I want to share with you ten things in my personal life that are making me happy. While Valentine’s Day is my least favorite holiday, the message of love it conveys is worth spreading. Rather than keep it to one day designed to generate revenue for florists, chocolatiers and card companies, I think spreading love every day is a fine thing. Love begins with the
