Are You Really, Truly Ready to Give Up Your Hope?

Don’t give up your hope. That’s what they want. Don’t give up your hope. It is neither a weakness nor does it disempower you. The doom and gloom across the world presently are deeply distressing. There is the utterly ludicrous and crushing invasion of Ukraine by Putin and his army, the seemingly never-ending battle with the COVID pandemic, and the terrifyingly regressive leaked US Supreme Court decision, just to name a few things. Each on its own is overwhelming doom

Is My Path Just About Me and Me Alone?

My path is only mine – but it’s not just about myself. For over a decade I have been writing about my ongoing process of finding, creating, and choosing my own path in this life. This has had many ups and downs and challenges along the way. But since truly starting to walk one path of my choosing or another, I have been more content, more satisfied, and frankly happier with the life I have been living. While some might

Complain and Spin Out or Complain, Accept, and Move On?

It’s normal to complain, but what comes next is a choice. I know some people who can and will complain about just about anything and everything you can imagine. This, that, or the other thing – they’ll complain about it. Sometimes they will drone on and on – even years and years after whatever it is they are complaining about. Has anyone ever gotten anywhere by complaining? Not to my knowledge. Sure, when you have a legit complaint and bring

Why Should You Write Down Your Ideas and Interesting Thoughts ASAP?

When you write down your ideas, they become harder to lose or misplace. This is not the article I was originally writing. Nope, that article was on a completely different topic. I was about halfway done writing it. Then, my computer crashed. The usual recovery file that tends to pop up when I restart MS Word didn’t. After spending probably more time than I should have searching for this – it all proved to be for naught. The worst part?

Does the World Need more Gratitude for Sustainability?

Absolutely. The world can always use more gratitude. These are, I believe, the three most powerful phrases anyone can employ: I am I love you Thank you All three are empowering. Each of them is an ultimate generator of conscious reality creation. And all three can create positivity and good feelings both for you as the speaker and those who you share them with. Whatever follows I am generates incredible manifestation power. Said with conviction, I am can make or

Are You Just Spinning Your Wheels or Are You Going Somewhere?

Feeling like you’re just spinning your wheels can be frustrating and infuriating. Ever have that feeling that you’re in motion, but not going anywhere? It’s akin to a car being stuck in the mud, on sand, or on ice. Your tires spin and spin and spin – but you don’t move. Sometimes, you do move – just really, really, slowly. Too slowly to feel like any movement is occurring. That’s a feeling I think many of us deal with from

Do You Think you’re the Only One Who Ever Gets Stuck?

It’s easy to feel stuck – but you are not the only one. As I started to consider what to write today, I found myself stuck. The usual time I make to do this writing came and went. And still, I felt stuck. Nothing sat right in my head, and I just couldn’t put the words in order. Then I read through my Medium daily digest. And as if the Powers-that-be knew what I needed, multiple articles on a similar

How Important is it to Know What Is Your Why?

What is your why – in this context – is not about the overarching meaning of life. Every single human life matters. All lives are important. Each and every one of us is endowed with some scientifically amazing attributes. These allow us to experience our world like no other animal on Earth. When we are first born, our lives are lived wholly in the now. All we know is waking, sleeping, and being. During this period, we’re just like the

Do You Wait for the Door to Open or Act to Open The Door?

When you act to open the door, you are being mindful. Life is a constant stream of activity. Like a flowing stream or river, life is always on the move. So long as we draw breath, we’re in motion. And that can be extremely overwhelming sometimes. I know how this feels. Choices and decisions can be scary and exciting at the same time. Some are more uncertain than others, too. But the outcome is seldom completely sure. Things not of

What Does Genuine, Real Productivity Look Like?

Productivity – like beauty and perfection – is in the eye of the beholder. There are many days when I don’t feel that I am sufficiently productive. I know there are several reasons for this. First – I do not work a standard Monday-Friday, 9-5 job. Truth is, I work anywhere between about 8am and 11pm. Also, I don’t necessarily only work Monday – Friday. There are times I put in some work on Saturday or Sunday, two. Second –
