The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
To live in the now is ultimate positivity. Why? Because we are living. No matter our present circumstances, we are here, living in a world of incredible abundance and possibility, now. The positivity of this is incalculable. I know that this can be difficult to believe. I struggle with it, too. There are responsibilities, bills to pay, weight to lose and other matters that don’t feel so positive. Yet when we live in the now, we can experience a higher
I have been working on better quieting my mind. Yes, I know that as human beings, we are ALWAYS thinking, always processing stuff. I also know that we are capable of finding stillness and peace, and turning the brain “off” for periods of time. This is something I am currently working on doing more. Why? Because it’s not, at least for me, about stopping thinking. It’s about getting the inner dialogue – specifically the uncomplimentary aspects – to be silent.
Words matter. The words we say matter. But what matters more are the words we think. In especial, those we think frequently, and those we use in reference to ourselves. Most of us are thinking constantly. Hell, for a lot of us, the very notion of turning off our brains seems totally impossible. One of the reasons why meditation is so healthy is because when we meditate it’s one of the few times we can stop the chatter. However, since
There are, in my opinion, three ways in which we can choose to live life. There are, as such, three realities people place their lives into. I have written about this before in previous posts, but I think it bears exploring further. Yes, I acknowledge off the bat that these are generalities. But let’s also face another fact: everyone is unique. We all think, feel and act differently from one another. The processes that go into this vary, and though
Pathwalking is not just my personal life philosophy. It is my way of taking all of the ideas I have been studying for many years now, and putting it into practice. A great deal of the process is dependent on thought and feeling. I have to take the thought, give it necessary feeling, and then perform an intentional action to get where I want to go. Six years ago, in my seventh ever post in Pathwalking, I explained the what
Today will be what we make of it. Whether you begin your day feeling refreshed or sleepy; excited or anxious; with apprehension or confidence – today will be what you and I make it out to be. It is easy to forget that each day brings about something new. Yes, there are routines to every single day of our lives. We wake, we do stuff, we sleep. Frequently, we simply allow the day to just happen. We do not accept
Be strong. I was having a perfectly good day. And then I read the news. That was not a good idea. How can I consciously create my own reality when I live in a world that’s so totally messed up? So, so many things happening out there that are appalling at best, then enraging, and terrifying. What’s the point? Why bother? Because I can effect change out there. I can do good things with my own life, and from there
Don’t panic! Two little words, but some of the best advice you can receive. I woke up this morning, and I was feeling pretty good. Decent night’s sleep, looking forward to taking care of some business and writing today. But then a little voice in my head reminded me of an issue currently on my plate. My heart rate began to accelerate, I got butterflies in the pit of my stomach, and my mind began racing through all the terrible,
There is a difference between action and intentional action. Action without intention can produce unintended results. Further, it can hamper your conscious reality creation efforts. The process of conscious reality creation is rather set. Thought, feeling and action are linked together in this operation. However, it is of vital importance that there be clarity, or else more likely you’ll find yourself wondering why you don’t seem to be getting where you want to go. Thought is the easiest concept. Everybody
Today will be whatever you make it be. It’s far too easy to approach Monday and the traditional start of the work week with distress, trepidation, displeasure, and unhappiness. There is an entire culture of Monday woe in this society, which has been and continues to be capitalized on, and as such gets reinforced. Does anyone want Monday to suck? I am pretty sure the answer is NO. I don’t really know anyone who wants to be miserable, who wants
