The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
Choosing what changes we make for our lives is a key goal of Pathwalking. The entire cosmos is in a constant state of change. I think probably one of the only constants in the universe is that everything changes, constantly. Human nature seeks stability. We like to know who we are, where we are, and what we are. As such, there is resistance to change, which can even get pretty violent at times. Yet no matter how much we want
Thank You are two of the most powerful words available to us. Thank you is one of the most powerful phrases we can employ. We frequently neglect just how powerful the words we use are. Words matter. What we say has an enormous impact on the world around us. When we recognize how powerful our words are, we develop the power to make more of the world around us. We can choose to alter our feelings, perspective, and world view
For me, being aware of my mindset, mindful of what I am thinking and feeling, is the key to creating what I truly desire from this life. Conscious reality creation is the ultimate gift humankind has. The other animals on this planet, no matter how intelligent they may be, don’t have the same capacity to create as we do. We are the only animals that can build tools to allow us to travel anywhere across the globe, infinitely expand our
When we are mindful of our thoughts, feelings and actions, we can walk any path. The key to doing this is to work on spending more time in the here-and-now. When we are mindful of where we are, at this very moment, we empower ourselves to best walk the paths for the lives we desire. Mindfulness is awareness. When we are aware, we have control. Pathwalking is about taking control of the life we lead, so being mindful is imperative
Reality is how we perceive the world around us. It both is and isn’t that simple, of course. No less an authority than Albert Einstein said, “Reality is an illusion, albeit a persistent one.” What that means is that what we perceive as our reality is different for everyone. To me, this thoroughly supports the notion that consciousness creates reality. Since the reality we perceive is completely individual, and a persistent illusion, isn’t it completely logical that we can create
There will always be things I just don’t understand. Some are emotional. I know people who feel certain ways about certain things that I simply cannot fathom. No judgements, this is just a statement of fact. Some are logical. Some judgement here, given notions like flat-earthers and racists and misogynists and the like. I just don’t understand how logic and reason can go out the window for easily disproven beliefs. For a long time I have said that life is
Once in a very great while, your path will need to be set aside for that of another. I know that I am constantly writing about how, to consciously create reality, we have to choose for ourselves. This is always true. But every now and then our own path is not as important as the path of another. How does that work? We all have people in our lives who are important to us. They are loved ones, close friends,
There are always things which will interfere with your chosen path. Many of these things are beyond our control. I can’t do anything about current government stupidity, hurricanes, foreign wars, and the overall negative attitude of other people. Yes, I can write letters to the leadership, support hurricane relief funds, and take other proactive actions. However, it’s important to recognize that this is limited, and needs to be proactive rather than reactive. Why proactive? Because if we are constantly reacting
Everyone is capable of having an opinion. Being entitled to an opinion, however, has frequently been carried to a dangerous and unhealthy extreme. What’s the difference? Let’s say that it is my opinion that the moon is made of green cheese. We know of course that it’s not. We have physical evidence returned from the moon to disprove me. When you show me a moon rock, and explain to me that the composition of the moon is not cheesy, I
What is important to me is that I live a good life, and am happy more often than not. We all have different priorities. Nobody’s emotions are exactly the same. While we may give our emotions the same names, odds are how they feel to each of us differs. Taking that another step, what makes me happy is going to be different from what makes you happy. Not just because of how it may feel differently to each of us,
