Straightedge

By |2009-11-28T21:46:25+13:00November 28th, 2009|Introspection|

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

By |2009-11-28T05:31:15+13:00November 28th, 2009|Introspection|

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 [...]

What a great life.

By |2009-11-13T04:46:02+13:00November 13th, 2009|Family|

After two weeks of sickness and flu, I finally felt myself turn the corner today.  And with it, I felt the return of something much more important than my bodily health.   My sense of gratitude.   It came flooding back in as I looked at my beautiful son sleeping on the bed, tangled in [...]

Broken healthcare.

By |2009-11-10T22:02:47+13:00November 10th, 2009|Family|

Anyone who has any interaction with the American health care system knows its broken. Or at least they should.  Maybe I have a different perspective, because I am a licensed insurance agent, but I don't deal with the mess that is health insurance.  (I sell auto, home, and life insurance.  Health insurance, I give thanks [...]

Owning the Badass

By |2009-11-06T21:56:11+13:00November 6th, 2009|Introspection|

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 [...]

NaNoWriMo year 3

By |2009-11-02T00:05:41+13:00November 2nd, 2009|Introspection|

I didn't think I was going to partake in National Novel Writing Month this year.  I really didn't. But I've got a huge project I am brainstorming on, and getting ready to move on in the next few weeks.  All I really need to do is spend some time kicking the idea into shape and [...]

Money is Power

By |2009-10-23T22:38:59+13:00October 23rd, 2009|Introspection|

Plain and simple. Money = power. Money, in many ways, equals the unnable force of the divine, manifested on the earthly plane. I have come to realize this by the simple act of possessing large amounts of money. In the grand scheme of things, the money I have had the luxury of possessing isn't even [...]

Retaining relaxation

By |2009-10-22T16:49:29+13:00October 22nd, 2009|Introspection|

The key, I have found, is to maintain a cool head no matter what happens. Epictetus said that we have no control over our external circumstances.  All we can control is our reaction to those circumstances. My manager called to say that the Windows upgrade which was originally scheduled for today, and cancelled, is now [...]

Feeling sickness

By |2009-10-22T16:35:53+13:00October 22nd, 2009|Introspection|

It is an odd experience, feeling sick and being cognizant of your own manifestation abilities. I can now see how being sick is a stiff roadblock in my ability to get things manifested according to my vision; I am drowned in a series of negative emotions.  My body hurts, my energy is sapped, and my [...]
