Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
What matters is being the best you that you can be. Nobody but you knows who you are. That’s the long and short of it. Let’s look at a single universal truth. No matter how we act, no matter how much we strive to be real and genuine, people will perceive us based on their own experiences, expectations, prejudices and knowledge. They will judge you based on how they perceive their own world, and there is nothing you or I
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
Keeping an optimistic outlook is anything but a weakness. In today’s society, we have a lot of ugly, unpleasant things that get our attention. Further, we are frequently told that it is important that we “be realistic”, and keep low expectations. Keep your head down, go to work, do the things, go home. Dreamers are often scorned or shunned for believing that there is more to this life. We frequently look at people with a sunny disposition or optimistic outlook
Optimism is a good thing. Having an optimistic outlook on life, the universe and everything is at least forty-two times better than not. If consciousness creates reality, then it goes to follow that if we have a negative outlook, we draw more negativity to us. Optimism and positivity go hand-in-hand. Both also suffer from a similar stigma. Many people see optimism and positivity as being pie-in-the-sky, rose-colored glasses wearing ideals. Sunshine and rainbows, flights of fancy with no roots in
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
Be who you want to be. Do not wait for the right time, the right situation, or whatever perfect storm you desire. Be who you want, right now. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, be who you want to be. I have spent a good part of my life struggling with my own identity. This has come in a lot of different forms, but it has mostly been a combination of being indecisive about who I am, concerns about
Confidence goes a long ways towards building positivity. When you are confident in who you are and what you do, you can create some pretty amazing things. Even if you are not a terribly confident feeling person, there are many different actions you can take that will generate confidence, and confidence in turn will develop some powerful positivity. First there is posture. I know that I tend to slouch. A lot. Sitting and standing more erect exudes confidence physically. Also,
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,
Decisions are an important element for moving life forward. As Pathwalking involves choosing direction for one’s life, an absolutely necessary element of any choice is decision making. Making decisions can be terrifying for people. Why? Because many of us tend to overthink. We second guess, fear that if we choose wrong we, or someone we care about, might suffer. Or we might possibly miss out on something better. Deciding can be intimidating because it feels final. The finality of the
You are capable of anything you put your thought and feeling into. Has anyone told you that of late? Well it’s true. You are more capable of more things than you probably realize, and I want to tell you this. Why am I telling you this? How do I know? Because I know that I am capable of consciously creating a reality of my own choosing, and if I am able to that, then so are you. You and I
