The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
The squirrels in my brain can be terribly distracting. What does that mean? When I am thinking about something, I frequently see not only the angle I wish to take, but alternative angles, results both good and bad, and all kinds of possibilities. Because of this, I frequently find it difficult to manifest precisely what I wish to. I woke up the other morning feeling anxious. I realized what it was that was causing me to feel anxious, but even
Time to take action. I have been a bit stuck in regards to promoting my writing. I blog thrice a week, sure, and Seeker, Finder and Clouds of Authority are all available on Amazon. But I have haven’t done much to promote any of these recently, and generate more sales. Writing the story is one thing. Editing it is another. Formatting and publishing it is not the last step, by any stretch of the imagination. At least, not when you
Surrendering to the Universe is not easy. If, like me, you are almost obsessed with the how and why of things, then simply surrendering to the Universe is a particularly loaded concept. It gets even more complicated if you are a skeptic or cynic. What does it mean to surrender? It means you have to have faith. This, too, can be a really loaded concept. We are frequently seeing around us people who are allowing their so-called “faith” to dictate
Do you beat yourself up when you fail to follow-through on something? Do you spend time berating yourself, getting upset over mistakes and failures to launch? Do you start to feel bad, to spiral negatively when you had all the right intentions but then don’t complete your plan? Most people do. I know I do. I get annoyed with myself, and start to feel bad when I make a plan and then I don’t move on it. Last week I
Change is complicated. First, it is imperative to acknowledge this statement: CHANGE IS INEVITABLE. Things change, because that is the nature of the Universe. Because time is an illusion, how we perceive change varies. Some change is quick and hard to miss. Some is so glacially slow that we don’t realize that change is happening at all. But everything changes, whether animal, vegetable or mineral. Everything evolves, shifts, and transforms. The desert was once a sea. Seeds grow into plants.
Planning is all well-and-good. It’s the actions that I find frequently challenging. The purpose of this particular blog is to share personal accountability as I do the things I do to live the life I most desire to live. Positivity is specifically sharing positive things to combat negativity while Pathwalking is more specifically about the mechanics of my conscious reality creation process. Crossing the Bridges is my personal journey, and the challenges as I take it. I have written about
How do you find the line between being informed, and being overwhelmed by information? This is the question I find myself contending with fairly regularly of late. Given all that is happening both in the USA and around the world, I find I need to remain informed, and keep in the know. However, there are so, so many things happening that this quickly becomes overwhelming. World news can be pretty crazy, but all the insane political actions happening in America
Crossing the Bridges can be difficult if you insist on burning them down before you reach the other side. I have always been a fan of the phrase, “I’ll burn that bridge when I come to it.” I know the word should be cross, but I think I’m a pretty funny guy, so I use burn instead. The problem is, I DO have a tendency to burn the bridges, often while I am right in the middle of the span.
Empathy is not a weakness. Empathy is not simply about understanding how someone else feels. It is about understanding that, like you, other people have feelings, too. We all have desires, we all have wants, we all have needs. Some are similar, such as food, shelter, clothing, companionship. Yet even with the similarities, they still will vary from person to person. The foods and quantities of food vary, the desired shelter differs, we like different clothing based on our individual
I can see across the bridge. So how come it feels like I will never get to the other side? Look familiar? I don’t know anyone who has not dealt with this sort of thing. You know where you want to go, you’ve a pretty good idea how to get there, you are on your way…yet it seems like you will never manage to arrive. The metaphor of Crossing the Bridges can feel very literal at times. I am where
