Never Make the Goal Too Rigid

It’s important to have a goal – but it needs to retain flexibility. You never know what you may get. When you set a goal for yourself you still need to leave the Universe some wiggle room. What does that mean? It means that having a goal is important. But at the same time, there needs to be room for it to expand beyond your intent. The Universe is a funny thing. It is made up of abundance and endless

What Will You Learn Today?

Why is recognizing what you can and will learn today important? There is always something new to be learned. Recognizing this can make a huge difference in your life. When you think there is nothing you can do; if the world seems to be only negative; if you find you are at a loss – there is a chance to learn something new today. What this means is that if you are stuck, displeased, distressed, frustrated, or otherwise not where

You Do You

I can’t tell you what to be, how to be, or what to do. So, you do you. Every day, I offer different ideas, insights, pieces of advice, and the like. I write extensive explanations of conscious reality creation, mindfulness, positivity, and other life lessons. Then I share them both because I have a desire to explore them further, and because I believe that you could benefit from that exploration. No matter what I share, the ideas I present, or

How Do You Adapt to Change?

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

Everybody Will Stumble Along Their Path

It is unavoidable that you will stumble as you make your way. This may be due to both external AND internal influences. When it comes to choosing paths in life, I’ve made it fairly clear that they are seldom a straight line. Nope. Every path is going to have detours, obstacles, unexpected twists and turns. They can be quite an adventure. When I explained how it’s important to flow like water, I also added the notion that a given life

Your Feelings are Valid

Nobody should be dismissive any anyone’s feelings – positive or negative. As a human being, you have feelings. Feelings can be an incredible source of strength. The ability to feel in the way humans feel is a huge part of what separates us from the rest of the animal kingdom. Who you are, at your core, is an amalgam of intangibles both near the surface and deeply embedded in your psyche. Mindfulness – thoughts, feelings, and actions – are the

You Can’t Change the World at Large

But you can change your corner of the world for the better. Spend any time online and you will probably become sad, angry, frustrated, or otherwise pulled in a negative direction. Between COVID-19, politics, fretting about the global economy, and all the rest of the current news, things are more uncertain than any previous experience in most of our lifetimes. This may be a bitter pill to swallow – but there is nothing you can do to change the big

Where Do We Go From Here?

That’s the question on everyone’s mind. Where are we going and how will we get there? What we are all experiencing as a result of COVID-19 is unprecedented. The shut-down, social distancing, isolation, and self-quarantine on a national scale are awkward. On a global scale, it’s downright frightening. The world has slowed way down. Most people understand the necessity of this and the stay-at-home orders from local leaders (as opposed to the always conflicting disinformation from the top – in

Nobody Can Predict the Future

Nobody can predict the future, and this can be frustrating for many people – but it can truly be a good thing, too. When you woke up today, you may or may not have had a plan. Perhaps you have a daily routine that you will be following, and the expected outcome of that is fairly constant. You know who you are, you know what you will be doing…and then something happens. Your car breaks down. Someone you know has

How Do Positivity and Toxic Positivity Differ?

The difference in how each variant of positivity works comes down to reality. I am a huge proponent of positivity. That should come as no surprise. However, I also believe that you cannot just live on positivity. Bad things occur, shit happens, and you cannot just avoid, deny, or neglect that. The notion of toxic positivity is to deny and ignore the negative. Gloss it over, pretend it is not there. But that’s not realistic in any way. Life is
