Talk about an omen….
I was sitting in a Starbucks one night, and as I looked out the window, this is what I saw.
Morning rituals
I continually hone what constitutes my morning. This next few weeks I will incorporate meditation, no excuses. Meditation is hard for me to incorporate, because it feels like I'm not doing anything. That is, however, the point; it allows me to process. To digest. I have developed digestion problems of late, because I am inundating [...]
The fool. Year zero.
Every year on my birthday, I draw a trump card to represent the year. This year I drew the Fool. I love the fool. I am ready for an adventure. […]
Polyphasic considerations
Its a new year, and although I am giving myself a weeks leeway until I make resolutions (the advantage of having a birthday on January 7, coupled with an intense december, means I need a week off for vacation) I am considering implementing a huge new lifestyle change: polyphasic sleep. Buckminster Fuller successfully employed this [...]
Pre-New Years Resolutions
It is beginning to strike me what I will be manifesting this upcoming year. I will be spending a lot of time on my resolutions, with the seminar Claim Your New Year Now, and I will also spend time at coffee with my wife earlier that day writing out my resolutions. There are a couple [...]
Oh, man, what am I doing this year?
My year is about to come to a close. I feel good about this year; it has been full of lessons, and most importantly, I have come to terms with the fact that the way I spend my days is how I spend my life. […]
Thanks for the tea
I did nothing for this tea. I am drinking a hot cup of Organic Hojicha green tea, and I have the abundance of the Universe to thank for it. Last week I received an unexpected check in the mail. It was for $3.60. About ten years ago, when PGE decommissioned the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant, [...]
Straightedge
I've gotta take a break again. After a day of feasting, on both food and favored intoxicants, I need to give my body a reprieve. Maybe not an all-out detox or cleanse, but I am enough out of balance that I need to take some time to give my body a break. I am doing [...]
Information peddler
I have spent some time studying those clever entrepreneurs who have put up a website, marketed an ebook, and made up to $300k a year. They share the same skill set as myself. It it not only within my reach to accomplish so accomplishable a task; it is beginning to be embarrasing that I have [...]
Owning the Badass
I have moved into the uncomfortable, a practice that is essential for continual growth. My lessons lately have been in accepting my inherent badass. I am not like other people. I differ greatly from my own society, and my studies and skils have brought me above and beyond the general populace to such a degree [...]
