The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
Yes, positivity can still be found. But it will probably be strictly personal. At the end of last week, the highest court in the United States did one of the most horrific things I could imagine. They took away the right of a person to choose what they do with their body. (Let’s be clear – if you think Roe v Wade was ever about the unborn and abortions – you are not paying attention). This was not the only
Yes, we can change anything. But it begins with ourselves. This weekend, two dear friends got married. Both, in the time I have known them, have changed in many ways. And the journey to get to this place together was not easy for either of them. But surrounded by friends and family, they pledged their love and lives together. Who you were is not who you are. And who you are is not who you will be tomorrow. That’s the
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
Confused? Redirection can be like that. But it’s still massively important to redirect. I write a lot about very specific topics. Mindfulness. Conscious reality creation. Self-awareness. Positivity. And general self-encouragement/self-help concepts, ideas, and notions. In a nutshell – I write about seeking, finding, and creating new ways to be the best that we can each individually be. I am not an expert, don’t hold any degrees related to these concepts. I’m a student of life and share my experience as
Recognizing and acknowledging knowing what you don’t know is incredibly freeing. I love to learn. One of the things that keeps me optimistic overall is that I know that there is always something new to be learned. More information to be found. New ideas to experience. Yes, there are things that I could learn that have I zero interest in. There are things that I’m happy to have just passing knowledge of. For most of my life, I have loved
It’s just as important for me to know who and what not to be as who and what to be. Let’s just get this out of the way, shall we? Let’s quote some Hamlet from Shakespeare, “To be or not to be – that is the question.” The question as I am posing it today is more specific, direct, and less philosophical than Hamlet’s query. I share what I do about mindfulness, conscious reality creation, positivity, and the other work
The answer is Yes. Both the path and I adjust in various ways. The only constant in the entire Universe is Change. I repeat that a lot. Why? Because it can have a truly amazing impact on our life experiences when we recognize, acknowledge, and accept this truth. Everything you know – all the comfort zones you exist in – has changed before. They will change again. And then, after they change – they’ll still change. No matter how resistant
We need to work more with mindfulness to embrace change. There are two topics I cover repeatedly. Fear and change. Why? Because we live in a fear-based society and change is the only constant in the Universe. What’s more, fear of change drives many, many people and the things they do. Accepting the inevitability of change goes a long way towards learning to embrace it. But that’s not easy to do because of how fear is so broadly exploited. What
Actions don’t just speak louder than words – they move and change everything. New Year’s Eve is almost upon us. Besides various forms of celebration people participate in around the world – lots of people make New Year’s Resolutions. They resolve to go to the gym more, quit smoking, eat fewer carbs, spend less time surfing social media, and other similar notions. But there is a major problem with resolution. It’s rather impotent. How do I mean? Let’s begin by
What change makes is literally everything. There is only one constant in the entire Universe. Change. Change will always happen. Sometimes it is so glacially slow and microscopically small that it seems not to be happening. Other times it’s cataclysmic, sudden, and ginormous. Either way – change is. It’s constant, unstoppable, and ineffable. Without change – nothing we know would be. In the words of Marcus Aurelius, “Is any man afraid of change? Why what can take place without change?
