The Ramblings of the Titanium Don

It is important to leave the past in the past. As much as I am never one to hold a grudge, I do still hold onto many things from my past.  And unfortunately, not in a good way. We always can learn from the past.  The key, however, is to not take it with you into the present and on to the future. Let me explain in more detail. When I went to college I began with zero direction.  I

Lately I have been experiencing a lot of anxiety. This is not a regular sensation for me, I don’t get anxious easily.  But I am well aware that anxiety, as a disguise for fear, gets in the way of Pathwalking. So what am I feeling anxious about? The first step in dealing with anxiety is identifying it.  I know that there are several things giving me anxiety, some of which I can deal with directly, some less so. Current anxiety

Trying to align my beliefs, emotions, thoughts and actions is an interesting challenge. In order to manifest anything, I know that I have to combine thought with feeling and then take intentional actions. That’s a major oversimplification of the process, however.  It is much more involved, and the pitfalls can be overwhelming. What am I going on about?  Let me explain. I have successfully manifested things in my life.  I have managed to make things happen through a combination of

Anger is a fascinating subject. I have a lot of anger in me.  Some is, at least as far as I am concerned, completely rational and likely justified.  Some, however, is old, long ignored, semi-forgotten…but still there. While fear is probably the biggest obstacle I face as I walk my path, anger is a close second. I have not written much about anger before because I work very hard to keep my anger in check. Unfortunately, that does not release

This has been a particularly challenging week for me. As I strive to walk my chosen path I am finding the obstacles along the way to be frustrating me more than usual. I could blame the cold, though overall the winter has been mild. I could blame the grey cloudy days, though I’ve now experienced several days of sun. More importantly, though, placing blame is not going to give me any resolution to my predicament. It is in my best

Today has not gone as planned. It has not gone badly, just not as I intended for it to go. What do you do when you have a plan or an intent for your day, or your week, or your year and it gets derailed? How can you still choose your path when you are clearly off of it? I have said more than once that sometimes the diversions on your path are actually where you need to go. Sometimes

Find your happy place, and enjoy some time there. We all have them. That place that we get to where the world is perfect. That spot where we are in absolute contentment, feeling alive and whole and where time can just stand still and we feel as if might want to live there forever. That is your happy place. I think there are many different happy places for most people, but they are not just an abstract idea or a

I have never chosen the conventional path. Before I came up with the idea of Pathwalking, I still never managed to conform to any normal path. This goes back a long, long ways as I examine it. As a kid I was not like the other kids in a number of ways I read at a higher level, I came from one of at the time few single-parent homes. I never quite meshed with the religious community in which I

Even when you are actively Pathwalking, there are responsibilities you cannot just ignore. I can imagine how some people may see the idea of Pathwalking as slacking. Choosing the thing you want to do over the things you should be doing – but that could not be further from the truth. There is still responsibility and accountability when it comes to Pathwalking. In fact, I could even argue that that is what it is all about. This week I am
