Does Everyone Experience Overwhelm From Time to Time?

If they’re a human being, then yes. What comes next is a choice. Human beings were not designed to have overwhelm be our default. But here we are. It should come as no surprise to anyone. Between billboards, TV, radio, social media, email, the internet, smartphones, and various other media we encounter daily, we’re frequently, utterly inundated. Odds are, you’re reading this on a phone, tablet, or PC. All of these are devices that were created to better connect us.

Can A Negative Experience Be Used for Positivity?

Life is a matter of balance and choices. For every extreme, there’s an opposite extreme. Up and down. Small and large. Left and right. Black and white. Tall and short. Good and evil. Positive and negative. Often, these extremes are personified as opposite sides of a coin. The problem with this is that coins are flat, and most things exist not at either extreme end, but somewhere between them. Take black and white, for example. Between these extremes is every

How Deep Does Your Subconscious Mind Go?

The depths of the subconscious mind are nearly unfathomable. Every human being is of 3 minds. The unconscious mind is not in our control in any way, shape, or form. It is via the unconscious mind that your heart beats, neurons fire, internal organs do their thing, and so on. While breathing is part of this, your control of it is through a conscious act (and for some, the ability to speed up and slow down their hearts). The conscious

Why Are Intentions and Feelings Frequently Misaligned?

No matter your intentions, you have zero control over anyone’s feelings but your own. Lots of people approach things with good intentions. But what does that mean? It means that you might say or do something that’s not intended to be hurtful, mean, offensive, or otherwise upsetting. You have good or neutral – not bad – intentions. How come, even when your intentions are neutral or good, you still cause hurt to someone? Because you can control the feelings of

What If The Meaning Of Life Is The Simplest Thing Ever?

What if it’s staring us all right in the face? The quest to find the meaning of life has occupied the human mind for most of recorded history. Why are we here? What are we doing? What’s the answer to the question of life, the Universe, and Everything? (That one we know – it’s 42). It’s easy to argue that philosophy, religion, and science are all on the exact same quest – to discover the meaning of life. Each has

Do We Really Need Positivity to Live Our Best Lives?

Genuine, non-toxic positivity is essential for everyone. Toxic positivity is all over the place. Tons of messages about the power of positive thinking, the Law of Attraction, manifestation, happiness, and living our best lives all reduce down to positivity. Toxic positivity both blatantly and subtly tells you all negative thoughts and feelings are bad and must be avoided, ignored, disregarded, and not allowed to take root. This is a lie. Why? Because nobody – and I mean nobody – lives

Sometimes Should Doing Nothing Be What We Should Be Doing?

The constant go-go-go of our culture isn’t healthy or sustainable. I frequently write about the need for action. If you desire to make any changes in your life, you must act. Conscious reality creation, mindfulness, and any work to manifest anything you desire requires you to do something. Rather than living life passively, going with the flow, and allowing life to just live you – taking action, doing something – is how you can be in control of who, what,

Can Gratitude for What You Have Get You What You Desire?

Yes. But it also alters what you genuinely desire in important, positive ways. Overall, I have an amazing life. I’m deeply grateful for all that I have. This begins with the basic necessities. This includes ample food, more than adequate shelter, and enough clothing that I need to donate things I seldom or never wear to a worthwhile charity. Beyond the basic necessities of life – food, clothing, shelter – I am incredibly grateful for the other “needs” that are

Do You Give Your Best and Do Your Best?

This is not in comparison to anyone else. I strive to be the best person that I can be. As a friend, a worker, a family member, a lover – I work to do my best and give my best. However, there is only one person who can judge what my best is. Me. My best is about being genuine, authentic, true to myself, and expending necessary effort. It doesn’t matter what the topic at hand is – nobody else

What If You Could Program Your Brain Like a Computer?

Spoiler alert – you can totally program your brain like a computer. The human brain is an incredibly complex piece of machinery. Everything the brain does – whether on the unconscious, subconscious, or conscious level – is simply astounding. Without our unique, complex, multifaceted brains, we’d be far more like the rest of the animal kingdom. Human beings are the only animals on this planet who can adapt to any environment, communicate instantaneously around the globe via artificial electronics, and
