RULES TO LIVE BY Jul 10, 2024

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...

WHEN TO TAKE IT EASY Jun 25, 2024

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?

When I embark on a new project, or a big goal, I know that there are parts of me who want to plan for and avoid failure. My mind seems to race ahead and ask, What could go wrong here? And in that questioning, I begin to worry.

UNCERTAINTY AS A SIGN TO PIVOT Jun 10, 2024

When you feel uncertain, what do you do? Do you jump in and take action, hoping that certainty will come? Do you research and ask for others’ opinions to know the way? Do you turn to other projects with a knowing that certainty will arrive in due time?

THE CARROT OR THE STICK? Jun 06, 2024

What is your motivation for the actions you take each day? Are you taking action because you enjoy what you do? Are you taking action because you are excited for what comes next? Are you taking action because you can feel the excitement within you for what is coming into your life?

The spiritual path is the path that I chose last, but it has been the best one. Let me explain.
