Positivity: THANK YOU

Thank you. The words “thank you” are powerful generators of positivity. If “I am” are the most important generators of positivity, then “thank you” are the next most important. Thank you is the simplest and yet possibly the most powerful means to convey gratitude. Thank you can change a negative moment into a positive one. It is not just powerful when you are thanked, but equally powerful when you are thanking. Hearing “thank you” conveys a sense of accomplishment, of

During the course of Pathwalking, I have frequently spoken about creating your own life. In walking your own path, one of the ideas is to control your destiny, and manifest the life you most want. There are obstacles, distractions, problems, complications, bumps and twists and turns along any given path. The journey, I have often stressed, is of equal if not greater import than the goal. Living in the here and now is vitally important to the end goal of

Positivity: I AM

I am. These can be the two most powerful generators of positivity you can possibly imagine. The words “I am” can make your life as positive and happy or as negative and miserable as you choose. These two words create your world, whether consciously or unconsciously. I cannot stress emphatically enough just how powerful the words “I am” are. This is how you identify not only WHO you are, but HOW, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, and even WHY you are. These

It never ceases to amaze me how readily I can lose my focus. For a while I can be a champion. I can successfully manifest what I want, no question, no difficulty, I can do it. I can see all the possibility, all the probability, all the reality of what I am capable of. I am amazed, excited, enthusiastic, and ready to tackle the world and everything that could possibly get in my way. And then it is gone. I

Positivity: Giving

Some people don’t even consider what they do to be giving. Some people go through this life and make accommodations for others, they take time to help people in a myriad of ways, and they just do things for other people without a second thought. They are people who give time, energy and more so that others may benefit. Giving is a powerful tool. We have an amazing capacity to give on an incredible number of levels. We can give

Positivity is vitally important to Pathwalking. Last week I began to explore this, and discussed at length when you know you are feeling predominantly negative what you need to do. After you identify the what and how and why, and determine which aspects of these you have any control over, you proceed to find a way to change the emotion you are feeling. As I stated before, the means that works for dealing with this today may not work at

Positivity: Gratitude

Gratitude has the power to change the world. Lately I have seen many people online participating in sharing daily gratitude. There is nothing in the world quite so powerful as gratitude to build positivity. Expressing what you are grateful for is about as pure a positive act as you can create. Taking note of and stating the things you are grateful for is always positivity. Recognizing the good things you have in your life and giving thanks for them is

It is vitally important that you work on a positive attitude when Pathwalking. I have mentioned rather frequently that positivity is terribly important. If you do not remain positive, you might find yourself easily trapped in any number of undesired matters. Yet there are going to be days where remaining positive feels impossible. No matter what you do to restore your mindset, you just feel…off. You feel blue. This is particularly rough if, like me, you might be known to

Positivity: Education

School is about to start up again. While certainly some kids will miss the freedom of the summer, education is, we adults know, hugely positive. There is an incredibly infinite number of things to be learned in this world. There is information on every single topic, past present and future, to be gleaned. Education is an incredibly positive influence. Education is how we have learned that the earth is round, that there are good and bad microscopic bacteria effecting our

There is some scary stuff happening in the world around us right now. In the United States we have this surreal situation in Missouri. I had really thought we left the hatred and fear and racism of the 1960’s back in the 20th century, but we seem to have all of that back again here and now. In the Ukraine we have separatists who are likely backed by the Russians stirring up nationalistic troubles. The Israelis and Palestinians of the
