You’re the Protagonist of Your Life Experience

It’s incredibly easy to forget that. It’s not disingenuous to say that life is a story. It has a defined beginning, middle, and ending. Along the way, you have rising and falling action, meet colorful characters, heroes and villains, and everyone in between. The story of your life does have one, single, solitary constant. The protagonist. Across every aspect of your life, from beginning, middle, to the end, the protagonist remains the same. That would be you. While you, the

Your Path Begins Within You, Not Without

Only you can choose via your head, heart, and soul Everyone faces certain big questions along the way. Who are you? What do you desire? Why are you doing that? Sometimes these questions feel invasive. Other times, you can answer them with certainty. Most of the time, you need to look within to truly know what the answers are. None of the answers to these questions are static. They change. That’s because change is the only constant in the universe.

No Path In Life Is Obstacle-Free

Are they obstacles or unique opportunities? Some weeks, this article gets written the day before I post it. Other weeks, like this one, it doesn’t get done until the morning I create it. It never ceases to amaze me how it just flows with ease one week, while another it’s a struggle to find what I desire to write about. This is one of the latter weeks. It doesn’t help that it’s a rainy day. Not in the sense of

Who Do You Think You Are?

No, seriously, who do YOU think you are? It’s all too easy to worry about what others think of you. Hell, whole industries exist to address this. Almost every single advertisement sells you on the idea that if you don’t buy this product or service, you won’t get laid, everyone will think less of you, you’ll miss out, and so on. Be the envy of your friends and family by buying “X” rather than the butt of the joke or

Why Be Mindful of All the Distractions?

When you’re distracted, you become disempowered and cede control of your life. It’s easy to get overwhelmed. The biggest downside of the information age, the internet, and social media, is how much junk is out there to distract you. This, coupled with the inherent fear-base of our society, is being increasingly weaponized to cause chaos, misguidance, and disempower the masses. It’s gotten to the point where there are distractions from the distractions. All of this is designed to move you

Why Be For Rather Than Against Things?

Because conscious reality creation is a neutral force in and of itself. You’re bombarded every day with messages that tell you to take a stand against this, in opposition to that, and so on. It’s as if there’s an endless loop of things to take a stand against. While on the surface this seems like a good way to resist awful things happening in the world, its depths tell a very different story. That’s because consciousness creates reality. This is

Why Can’t You Undo or Redo It?

The past has come and gone, and change is the only constant. One of the central tenets of the current American administration – if they have any genuine tenets to speak of – is to undo decades of progress. Environmental protections to ensure people have access to clean air and water? Fuck that, it cuts into corporate profits and economic growth. Equal rights for women, LGBTQA+, and people of color? Fuck that, the white men need their shining mediocrity to

Is How You Handle Change Yours to Control?

Yes, because nobody else is in your head, heart, or soul. People spend endless amounts of time and money to understand things. Often, finding answers leads to stagnation because of one simple universal truth: Change is the one and only constant in the universe. Nothing, and I mean nothing at all, is static. Everything changes. Sometimes change occurs so quickly that you blink and it’s done. Other times, change is so glacially slow that no matter how hard you look

Today is Another Day Here, and That’s Good

Each day you have is a new opportunity if you see it that way. Today is not yesterday. No matter what yesterday looked like or how it played out, today is a completely different and unique day. Maybe it’s just another day. That, however, is a matter of perspective. Whatever approach you choose to the day, whether you make conscious choices or live via rote and routine subconsciously, today is another day here. Like it or not, you will reach

How Do I Balance My Need to Help with What I Can Actually Do?

I need to recognize and accept what I do, don’t, and can’t control. I’m trying to wrap my head around my own thoughts. Between what’s in my head and the information I take in from the world without, there’s a lot there to process. Lately, I’ve been feeling an increasing sense of disconnect. It’s like I’m present, doing my thing, but also drifting. Why? Because the state of the collective consciousness is so scattered and so uncertain, it’s hard to
