Costa Rica was a lie. I’m in Gresham.

EDIT: This was a prank for April Fool's Day. To everyone I have decieved, I'm sorry. After talking it over with my family, we've decided to stop living a lie. Actually, we have to, because Johanna is taking our kids downtown to panhandle three days a week, and we've started seeing people we know. [...]

Making Things Manifest

"We Become What We Think About." - Earl Nightingale Maybe you've noticed this, too: people who keep having problems over and over again, they really like to talk about them. Those who live life of ease - they don't. Gossip and complaining is not how they comment on the world. There is a very real correlation [...]

I love National Novel Writing Month. Every November, I pit myself against my word count, and I inevitably improve as a writer and a storyteller. The first few years, I crafted novels. First draft, story arc, plotline, character development, novels. Long-form works of this scope are exhausting, creatively. I love writing them, and I love [...]

Fortunate Man.

This year, I find my fortune. The birthday is a perfect time to reassess your life, look back on what you have accomplished, and look ahead at where you are going. To aid in my planning, I draw a Tarot card every year, to help me navigate the road ahead. This year, I drew the [...]

The Baby is Imminent.

By |2011-12-26T13:35:43+13:00December 26th, 2011|Family|

After waiting for nine months, we are ready for the baby. Any day now. The holidays are done, the cradle is set up next to the bed, we have a supply of diapers and blankets; now we are just making minor tweaks to our plans. This is our third child. After going through [...]

Welcome back, Retrograde.

Whenever Mercury’s movement in the sky reverses itself, due to an astronomical phenomenon called Apparent Retrograde Motion, things generally get screwy here on earth. Image courtesy of Wikipedia In olden times, when Astrologers were doing their best to correlate events on the human plane with the movements of the Wandering Stars, Mercury was [...]

Cleaning Out the Mold

By |2011-11-01T08:29:32+13:00November 1st, 2011|Introspection|

Like many people who are energetically sensitive, I had a hell of a last few weeks. I don't know if it was something in the stars or general October rainy blues, but I was in a funk for a couple of weeks. So I shook things up. I pulled my desk out of the bedroom [...]

My Roundtable of Heroes

I’ve been doing a lot of existential-type exercises lately, because I run my own business, and as my own boss, I need to a) keep myself on track, and b) substitute imaginary friends for a board meeting. Napoleon Hill describes the process of creating an ‘Imaginary Cabinet’ in Think and Grow Rich. You relax your [...]

Donating selfishly.

By |2011-02-16T11:12:06+13:00February 16th, 2011|Introspection|

Since my financial world got rocked last year (like so many other people) I've been paying extra special close attention to ways I can change my money vibe, and prep for a dynamite, kickass year in 2011. The thing that's been standing out the most, out of everything I've been reading: give money away. It [...]
