The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
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
Answering the question “where am I now?” is a first step in conscious reality creation. The philosophy of Pathalking, when all is said and done, is about using conscious reality creation to direct the journey. Knowing what you desire to create for your life, and how you’d like it to look, provide the goal. However, the future is not yet written. To get anywhere ahead of where you are now – you need to know where you are now. Many
Yes, there are plans afoot and paths I am on – but that doesn’t mean I am not lost, too. How are you feeling? I ask friends and loved ones this question frequently – but I do not ask this of myself nearly enough. Yet it is one of the quintessential questions of mindfulness. What I am thinking, what, and how I am feeling are the most tangible elements of mindfulness – next to the intent behind my actions. To
Am I embarking on a new path or just living the definition of insanity? This quote is attributed to Albert Einstein: “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Whether or not Einstein did in fact say this, the point is valid. How else can you explain trying the same thing again and again – with little to no change – and expecting the result to change? This is not the notion of seeking
Change is the only constant in the Universe. How do you adapt when it happens? The only absolutely certain constant in the Universe is change. Change will happen – sometimes slowly, sometimes instantaneously. Like it or not, change happens. Much you can do nothing about. The planet is turning, winds come and go, volcanoes erupt, the earth quakes, and yadda-yadda. You can vote, attend protests, give money to worthy causes – and that’s the limit of what you can do
I know what I need to do – am I doing it? If not – why not? To be where I desire to be, I know all the things I should be doing. After reading and listening to countless self-help, self-improvement, money-management, mindfulness, psychological, inspirational, and similar books and articles – the answers are here before me. The key is doing. Thoughts and feelings each make up a third of mindfulness and conscious reality creation. The final third is action.
Not to be redundant, but what you want and what you REALLY want may differ. That’s an important distinction in conscious reality creation. I read a lot of blogs and articles by a lot of different self-help and inspirational writers. I have read or listened to a vast number of books on the topics of self-help, inspiration, self-improvement, conscious reality creation and manifestation, mindfulness, and finding/creating wealth. Along the way, I have developed my own philosophy on this topic and
Finding the good in the middle of the bad. The current reality in which we are living is distressing, depressing, uncertain, and confusing as all get out. None of us have experienced something like this in our lifetime. The global pandemic has us taking extreme measures. We are sheltering in place, social distancing, and severely limiting how much time we spend in public, even of necessity. (Or at least – we should be.) Yes, there are some for whom nothing
You have the power to save yourself from anything and everything. We live in interesting times. The world is currently in the midst of upheaval like nothing any of us have ever seen in our lifetime. It’s not a war, nor a great economic crash – it’s a virus. A microscopic invader that is hard to repel, impossible to see, and difficult to resist. Steps are being taken to keep people as safe as possible. They are, unfortunately, drastic –
Even making no choice at all is still a choice. Every single day that you are here on this planet you are making choices. The vast majority of the things you choose are relatively mindless and mundane. When to get out of bed, what to wear, what to eat, where to go and when, and so on. Simple, frequent, daily choices you make that can, ultimately, impact your day quite a lot. How? Because maybe what you ate made you
