When I sit to write these posts, I often don’t have a set agenda for what I want to cover. Instead, I let my intuition guide me and see what needs to come forward today. For me. I’d be remiss if I didn’t come clean and let you know that I write these posts more for me than I do for you, but I do hol...

I use a Logbook throughout my day. This means that I work intuitively toward all my goals and as I take action, I create a record of the action taken. For instance, after I comple...
What if God rebranded as the Universe just to attract a whole new set of followers? What if the Universe is far more interested in us than the law of attraction makes it sound? What if we are all test subjects in some grand experiment to see who can race to the end first and discover what’s the trut...
When you are in doubt, do you press ahead or do you hang back? When you are unsure, do you take action anyway or do you rerun the pros and cons in your mind? When you are mired in uncertainty, do you work your way out or do you allow uncertainty to pass until you move ahead?
