Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
Positivity can be found anywhere we look. There are all sorts of thing, big and small, that can bring about positivity. Sometimes they are easier to see than others. We are alive and breathing. We have amazing technology at our fingertips. We are capable of loving and being loved. We can have, do or be pretty much anything we desire. There is sky above us and earth beneath our feet. I know that it can feel like an impossible struggle
I love writing. I have been writing since I was 9 years old. Wildfire was sci-fi, 50 hand-written pages long and illustrated by yours truly. The basic premise: the grown-ups of the world allowed this mad scientist to create robots, who took over everything for everyone. The adults got fat and lazy, the kids got distraught over this so they rebelled, stole a bunch of military hardware, created a base in the walls of the Grand Canyon, and in time
How does consciousness create reality? When we focus on what we are thinking, how we are feeling, and then taking intentional actions, we become truly aware, and conscious of our decisions. When we are aware, we take charge and gain control over what we are doing. Life is too short to not be fully present and conscious of the reality we live in. We are not on this planet for all that long, so wouldn’t it be better to spend
You are in control of more than you believe yourself to be. This can be a particularly difficult concept to believe, but that doesn’t lessen the truth of it. You are in control over how you think, how you feel, and how you act. I know that sometimes it feels like that control is really, really limited. Truth is, however, that the only limitations are those that you yourself place. Otherwise, you have far more power and capability to change
Taking steps to get in shape can generate massive positivity. Getting in shape can also take a number of different forms. Health is not simply measured as physical, but also mental, spiritual and emotional. Giving attention to any one of these can improve our quality of life and be massively positive, while working on more than one or all of them can be hugely empowering. Everyone is familiar with processes for getting into shape physically. Diet and exercise, skin care,
Why do I blog? Recently, a webinar I viewed took me to an unexpected place, and I began a course to learn new ways to earn money as a blogger. I mean, this is something I love rather a lot, so why shouldn’t I be earning a living doing this? One of the questions the instructor posed is, Why do you blog? This is an interesting question, and the answer to it caused me to realize that this whole blog
Intention is the reality of control. When you take an intentional action, you have a purpose, and are not just doing some thing for the sake of doing the thing. Intent means there is a plan to gain something from the action taken. I have been writing more or less since I began Pathwalking that one of the main reasons to walk one’s own path is to take control of your own destiny. I want to create a unique, interesting
Cliché though it may be, there is nothing like fresh air to clear your head. I like to take a few minutes during my work day to get a sun/air break. Step outside, get some fresh air, escape the stale office air and my computer. There is something cleansing, both physically and emotionally, in breathing in fresh air. It awakens the senses, it rejuvenates the soul, it opens us up to possibilities. I know that this is super-trite, but I
What brings me joy? Sunlight. Writing. Reading. Time with my wife. Time with my friends. My cats. My niece and my nephews. Driving with the windows down and the radio blasting. Helping other people. I want more joy in my life. I want to spend more time happy, excited to greet the day and write my stories and share my blogs and do everything I can to make at least my corner of the world the best place that it
Balancing living in the now with our overall perception of time is an interesting challenge. As I concluded last week, I have been thoroughly indoctrinated into the societal obsession with time, and my work to withdraw from that perception is a challenge. But because I desire to consciously create the reality I most want to have, I am doing anything and everything I can think of to more regularly live in the here and now. What tools do I have
