Pathwalking 177

Pathwalking can be fun. I am constantly writing about the complexities, the paradoxes, the difficulties and dualities of this process, but recognize that it might be time to point out that this can be fun. When you make your own choices in life you can choose things that make you feel good. You can make choices for things that you want to do and experience, and that can be a lot of fun. People spend too much time focusing on

Positivity: Words Matter

Words matter. It’s not simply what you say, it’s the thoughts behind the words, it’s the intent behind the words, it’s the feelings that words invoke. Words can make us and break us, they can inspire us or upset us. Words matter. When the words that you use regularly are negative it probably comes as no surprise that the result of this is more negativity. The dialogue I choose is going to effect the outcome of any conversation, whether internal

Today is only today. That means that this day stands entirely on its own. No other day will be like it, for good ill or indifferent. What does this mean? To me it is a reminder that every day is unique unto itself. It means that today’s successes and today’s failures are only here, now. They only stay with me if I choose to bring them along with me. Every day presents new challenges, new opportunities, new ideas, new possibilities,

Positivity: Because, that's why

The world needs more positivity. Because, that’s why. When we all have more positivity in our lives, we all feel better. Feeling good is pretty much the main driving force for everyone for everything. This whole positivity thing does not need to be complex. It can be insanely simple. Things like dogs and cats, sunshine, interestingly shaped clouds, a cup of coffee, a small child, laughter, the feel of grass or sand between your toes. Find and give thought to

Pathwalking 175

When one path ends, another path begins. Sometimes it’s hard to see what that next path is going to be, and sometimes that path is not revealed before you realize you are already upon it. I have written before that we are often on more than one path at a time. One major philosophy I believe is that life is not linear. We are very seldom on the move from point a to point b, we are traveling in ellipsis

Positivity: Breaking from the Norm

Sometimes you just need to take a break from your regular life to find more Positivity. While it is possible to discover things to be positive about in my day to day life, there is something to be said for getting away from it all. Sometimes you do this with a known escape. You choose an activity or a familiar place that is an escape from the everyday, yet still something that makes you feel good. Sometimes you do something

I look at the clutter around me, and find that this is my mindset manifest. I have never been known for keeping my workspace neat. When I had an office or a cubicle it was nearly always strewn about with papers and files and books and stuff. My desk at home spends maybe a day or two uncluttered. I clear it off, I shift stuff around, things get filed – yet somehow my desk almost appears to spontaneously generate paper

Positivity: Does Negativity Serve Us?

What does negativity get us? Think about it a moment. Looking at the world as a desolate, distressing, dark and unhappy place feels awful. Focusing on corruption and greed and acts of violence and intolerance and hatred is disturbing. So why do we do it? You cannot focus on undoing a thing once it has come into being. But that’s exactly what we do. We focus on the things we don’t want, we focus on how to stop them…and yet

Can I manifest more than one of the things I want in my life at a time? Can I focus on multiple goals at the same time, and make them all manifest? Simple answer – yes. Less simple answer – yes, but not without proper focus. Complex answer – yes, but do I really know what I want and can I give it the necessary focus? For me, focus is difficult. I think I might suffer from ADOS – Attention

Pathwalking 172

I have an urgent need to make something in my life manifest. I need to drastically change one of the paths I am on, and in order to make that happen I need to give it the same focus I have previously used when I have succeeded with manifestation before. This is of course easier said than done. This always seems to be the case, frankly. How have I manifested the things I have manifested before? There are two specific
