Head and Heart – Thoughts and Feelings – Speak Different Languages

Head and heart are often tied together. But thoughts and feelings are very different. Lots of people have made this observation over the years. The head and heart – thoughts and feelings – can be in vastly different places, and often don’t speak the same language. I’ve written about this a lot over the years. The head and heart can often conflict because of how much they differ. This is one reason why people will do something they know –

Do You Accept What is or Choose What Could Possibly Be?

What could possibly be is less improbable than you might imagine. I frequently use the phrase “it is what it is”. What I often fail to realize is that while the intent of saying “it is what it is” is to avoid argument and debate – it can also empower unwanted things. That additionally denies potential and possibility to accept what is. Admittedly, my regular use of this is to end debates with my mom. Sure, it often cuts short

The Positivity or Negativity of Your Actions Are Your Truth

What your actions reflect – positivity or negativity – is the truth of your life. Nobody but you is inside your head, heart, or soul. Thus, nobody but you ever knows what you are thinking, what and how you’re feeling, or the intentions behind actions you take. Your actions, however, are how others can see what, where, how, why, and all else in concert with who you are. Your actions are how the outside world sees your inside self. This

The Only Mind You Can Positively Change is Your Mind

Why not focus on positively changing your mind for the better? Spending any time at all browsing social media can be infuriating. Any encounter with news sources – legitimate or not – can be disheartening and depressing. Between the ongoing fight with the COVID-19 pandemic, seriously disruptive and destructive politics, entitled people being awful, and various other world events – it’s easy to lose sight of our own lives. No matter what side you fall on in any given discussion

How Can Today Be Made into a Notable Special Occasion?

You can choose to treat today as the special occasion you desire for it to be. Our culture has a major love affair with celebrating special occasions. These include birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, graduations, and many massive achievements like promotions, marriages, births, and so on. The focus, however, often gets rather narrow when it comes to defining a special occasion versus the everyday. People put so much energy, time, attention, and investment into a given special occasion that they ignore all

Where’s the Mysterious Line Between Too Much and Not Enough?

How do you identify this mysterious line along any given path? I sometimes wonder if I am doing too much or not enough. This applies to many of the paths I’m walking in my life. For example – writing and editing. This year, I’ve written and published 6 novels. Was that too much – or not enough? How can I question this? Because I know an author who publishes about a book a month. Decent, good books. That’s more than

One Path in Life Always Leads to Another Unique Path

So long as you’re alive – at the end of this path you will have another. Conscious reality creation is an ongoing action. Along this line, choosing a path for your life experience is not a singular act. There are multiple paths for our lives – some of which intersect while others run parallel or even perpendicular. Career paths, relationship paths, creativity paths, recreational paths – all are options and choices before each of us. Some are made more consciously

See Incredible Potential and Possibilities for Life as Much as I Do?

Incredible potential and possibilities are not pie-in-the-sky idealism, but part of an abundance mindset. I know that life has been extra hard for people since the pandemic hit us. The world has been forever changed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the best efforts of its deniers to pretend that nothing has happened – that’s just not true. Much of what came out of this experience has been unpleasant and ugly. Some of the very worst has been brought out in

Fear on My Path – Walk Right Into it or Run Away?

You choose if fear controls you or you control it. I am about to do something slightly terrifying. What is it? I’m going to take a step into the unknown. I’m doing something that is financially risky – but has the potential to be incredible. This is really scary. It’s bringing up a lot of my deep-seated fears, which can be dangerous when I allow them to control me. Like every other thought and feeling – fear is under my

Is Positivity More Than a Feeling – But Rather, an Attitude?

Positivity is more broadly defined than just a feeling – it is a whole attitude and approach. How we experience life is a matter of attitude and approach. This is a choice every single one of us gets to make every day. Hence why it can be utterly subjective and highly variable. Trouble is, people often don’t see that their overall approach isn’t neutral – but tends to be positive OR negative. And often – because of how we’re inundated
