Aug 17/16
So I woke up on a beautiful Saturday summer morning, with no plans other than I did not want to waste a precious summer day. I decided to go on a random last minute road trip to the majestic western Canadian mountains. After a long day's motorbike ride I ended up decided to see if I could find a room for the night at a town buried deep in the mountains. I was lucky enough to finally find a room for night, as many people were already there and most of the rooms were already taken.
As I settled down on a park bench, to enjoy the evening air, next to a busy street filled with all kinds of traffic. Only a brief moment had passed when a group of people wondered by and in that group I recognized a person I knew. After a brief conversation with that person we parted ways and a comment spoken by them remained with me....."I love coming to visit here and the mountains but my partner would rather not.....so because of this I rarely come here". Once again this small comment made a large impact with me, in the fact this person is making some choices to deny what they find can bring joy to their life.
So some of your reading this might think I am suggesting to not ever compromise in a relationship or to the extreme thought, to not even have a relationship. To be clear I am not suggesting that at all and my point is to be mindful of the choices you make in your life. The term death of a thousand cuts comes to mind, meaning in your intimate relationships, when you slowly start to make decision to compromise with your partner you may slowly start to loose who you are as a amazing person. Before you realize it you make wake up one day not been able to recognize the person you are right now in the moment.
If you are daily mindful of your choices and the impact of those choices are on your life, you can make adjustments and focus on you and your emotional health. All before it is either too late in losing yourself or perhaps losing someone that is very close to you. When so much damage has been now created, without you realizing it, and it seems impossible to repair and see a future together with that person or knowing the clarity of you.
This moment on the park bench has caused me to reflect of some of my failed relationships and the pain my choices have caused myself and others around me. As I was not mindful of my small choices I made and I did loose myself. When the re-building would start over again on my foundation and my search to find joy again in the life around me. I needed fuel to carry on and small moments of joy, ones like in this chapter helped me on my long road to recovery.
Once you start re-building it will feel at times that this process will take a long time and sometimes might start to feel like a marathon run with no training at all. All the while it seems like your going up-hill and path under your feet is moving backwards and just about when your starting to feel unsure of your path - you will be provided with an experience that will energize you and propel you forward.
As you start to feel a positive change in you, the moments of "marathon running" will start to get easier and you will start to feel the periods been lost become shorter while you will feel the periods of having energy becoming longer.
This will be on your step of alignment and feeling in-sync of who you are and having the energy flow around you. Picture riding a canoe in the mountains in the sweet spot of the current and going the same direction of the current. You surge ahead with each paddle stroke plus at a combined rate of the flowing current. The energy to go the same distance is vastly lower than if you were doing it all alone.
Enjoy your efforts and the positive energy of alignment.

The 15th Chapter - Steps to Creating Your Life's Journey
March 6/16
Today I have realized another new life's journey (quest) has started. As in any long journey there is usually legs or smaller pieces that combine together to reach your end destination. Along the way there will be moments that stay in your memory and make a larger impact than other parts of the journey.
This experience was triggered today as I was watching a movie and found myself with tears streaming down my face, then I thought back to, unlocking the key to my confidence is within me. I realized to build this confidence in me, one of the keys is to follow what you need to do no matter what it is. Always be mindful to always be kind to yourself and others in whatever you acts maybe.
So even though I feel I have been trying to find happiness, I realized I was basing on how to accomplish this goal on too much advice of other people around me. I have forgotten how to have balance in my life, others can provide a perspective and insight on achieving your goals...However at the end of the day it is up to us to do the hard work and no one else can provide a magic pill for what you seek.
The key to truly loving myself was also missing and believing in myself....It was at this time I had to live my life choices for me and by doing that I would attract like minded people into my life. Once this starts to happen then balance and harmony would be felt and my life would be in a way that it is supposed to be. Alignment to all my goals based on small thoughts (the bases for a strong foundation) to create a fulfilling life.
I had realized the is being able to see the truth for me is the first step, followed by acting or doing what that truth maybe and do what I need to do to make that happen in my life. As you practice this more and attract more like minded people this should enable your confidence to grow and these people will still be with you as you continue to follow your paths.
This made my mind wonder to relationships - All relationships are different and as long as there is truth and kindness in your relationships that is all that matters Based on this I realized I can not follow what I think is expected of me from what others think or what society thinks is normal. Take what you observe around you in this regards and apply the parts that will work for you. As all of our past experiences are vastly different, I am suggesting that because of this, no one specific way of life can you follow except for your own.....The direction that you have given yourself and this is a key way of achieving true happiness.....By doing this you will start to meet the most amazing people that area absolutely perfect for you in that moment of your reality. When you are feeling emotional pain try to reservist your mind back to thoughts like these, reach out to the universe for strength and you will find your wish will be answered. It will get better....
The movie I watched that day was called Hector and the search for happiness, staring Simon Pegg. An incredible story that was mixed with all different kinds of emotions....if you are not looking for a deep meaning you will laugh and be entertained....If you are looking for some depth it will also provide that as well and leave you reflecting...
Also a song from the movie-----Jude in the mountains, created by Dan Mangan is also a very powerful song.

The 14th Chapter - Awareness and Being In-Sync With Others
Feb 28/16
I just arrived back from Hawaii after spending sometime on the island of Oahu. This is the third time I have had the privilege to visit this beautiful island. The weather and the people I met all were so beautiful. With every visit I feel myself become more attached and my thoughts often drift back to those moments there. One of these moments was a brief observation I experienced with the last visit.
While waiting to get off a bus I stood up and a I noticed a young woman was seating in the seat in front of me. As I looked at her and made eye contact, I was preparing myself to wait until she went first, as we were all getting off the bus. After she was stood up from her seat, in a very formal manner, she bowed and said thank you and left. For that brief moment her act and emotional energy were in perfect sync and I was grateful to feel in the moment.
Something so simple like these moments is the universe providing you strength (fuel) for you to go forward. Also times like these are re-enforcement that you are on the path of your life that you have chosen for yourself. Picture these brief moments of your internal compass pointing you in your direction that you need to go and be to truly have a fulfilled life. Be mindful that if you start not having these experiences you maybe living in the past or spending too much time planning your future - this can be like a quiet warning light to you to start making choices that align up to what you truly want.
To have allowed myself to feel the impact of that moment helps me feel that life is truly worth living and is amazing. I am truly grateful for what that woman gave to me, it was a moment that was completed in roughly 2 seconds, yet it still provides me with comfort and strength. My wish is someday she will know how much that brief interaction has provided and to be able to thank her for what she did.
What a gift to be a human being and to be able to enjoy living. To have the mindset of gratefulness and being truly open to others and yourself is another key of life's great journey and adventure.
Be mindful to not waste one precious moment of your life - those wasted moments will never be able to be recaptured other than in memory alone.

The 13th Chapter - Weight Loss Success Thought
Dec 3/15
I noticed weight loss programs in general will usually try to pitch their product with the thought that their program is "very easy" - So depending how you understand that term it can be read and interpretative in two different ways. Yes it is a easy process, if you follow the simple steps provided to you by the weight loss program - in theory yes you should be able to accomplish your goal. However the biggest part of the component missing is the hardest to do and that is not as easy....and that is to reprogram your habits/brain of unhealthy actives that you may have been doing for years. You are used to what you know and you will need a tangible tool to help you readjust your thoughts and habits. These will need to change before you start on your weight gain goal....for as missing this critical step it will make your results that much harder to achieve.... Without this awareness there is a strong possibility that the results you seek may not become long term.
It will take a tremendous amount of courage to break out of your old habits and to have the desired change you want in your life. Once the hard work has been done in realizing this fact then the foundation needs to be built before you start on any journey and then it will become easier. Whether your goals are to lose weight or become healthier emotionally - all of the programs that you would like to follow, can be broke down into easy small bite size chucks which will allow you to start to form a new pattern. Once you start achieving your small goals this pattern replication will become faster and faster and with sometime and practice it will actually become easier. I am guessing you know where I am going with this next thought....like the person training for the marathon as discussed before - this pattern will need to be repeated in whatever venture you take on.
By doing this small steps to achieving your goals it will allow your brain to adjust and the rewiring of your thought patterns will happen. Depending on your age and your up bringing, you have spent years perfecting whatever behavior it is that you would like to change. So it will take the equal amount of effort to change that behavior...Keep in mind the time to take this will usually be shorter to rewire your brain as you now have self awareness and the power of intention on your side. Usually the patterns of behavior that you would like to change have occurred so long ago and so slowly you might not even notice it has occurred....until self awareness is born in you. Like the frog put in a pot with room temperature water will stay in it, as the stove is turned on and slowly raises the water temperature, the frog will stay there until its death. Put the frog in already boiling water and it will jump out.
Take comfort in knowing what is going on and to why you have feelings of frustration as you might not think you are achieving your goals fast enough. Take away the pressure on yourself to feel it should be so easy or others telling you it is easy - when your not aware of the reasons why. Without first fixing your wheel of thought, it might be possible to head down a path of self doubt and a feeling of failure. The irony is that when you started this journey of self improvement you were in a positive thought of energy is not in fact turned into the opposite. Without this issue getting repaired the results could have your behavior turning out even worse then before you started. That possible failure could be two fold as your not getting the change you originally set out to achieve, plus the additional stress of failure.
If this happens readdress and start asking yourself why this result has happened. Be truthful to yourself on the answers you provide and with this answers self awareness will grow to why this unsuccessful event is occurring within you. From there adjust your goal, to one that you know you can achieve and start to measure your accomplishments.
Remember it is OK to have failure and what is not OK is to not learn from these failures.

The 12th Chapter - A Moment of Reflection of Helping Others
Nov 19/15
Take a moment to think about a person that has helped you in some way. Whether is is personal or work related and thank them. Once a thank has been given (a thank can be of any form - it does not need to be made in the physical sense) then carry on the energy and help that you have received and pay it forward, not only just saying it but how the experience made you feel. To be sharing what has impacted you in a positive way - with a direction to that person - that if they felt that information and support was helpful then ask them to pay it forward with the same direction. This is a tangible way to grow and foster a better community...Imagine the positive impact this would have in the world if the process were to be replicated only once a day by everyone in your community. It would only take two people to start a conversation like this and it would spread with the true intent to help others and no financial gain to be the giver of this information. This may sound too fairy type of a concept and not possible, however if we all could keep thoughts like this in a simple form, this would work and there would be possible change within our lives and our health of our communities.
Which now leads to the person I would like to thank. This person has had and continues to have a positive impact on my life that continually keeps replicating. As the positive interactions have grown - due to these interactions this has lead directly of me to putting pen to paper. In fact I am writing/sharing this now in a book given to me by him. As in chapter one - with the instructions to fill the pages. As you know from chapter one, this person is Todd - Thank you Todd for the continued positive and self development experience you have helped create in me. I am grateful of the risk he took in me to start helping me create a meaning full life. A moment of reflection to explain that thought in more detail...When I first met Todd I had a very different mind set then I currently have now and did not realize how much of a truly negative state I was in. In fact in that moment in time I did believe I was in a good mind set and had a thought that if only all the others around me could see it....things would just be so easy and the problem of my current struggles were because others around me were the problem....Holy moly is this thinking painful for me or so painful for the people around me that could see it....but I did not. I truly did think I was doing everything right and I was not the problem....as I continue to reflect what an incredible waste of people's most precious gift - time. It was true at that time in my career I did have a large workload and yes I was striving for excellence....but I never fully communicated to others nor did I let myself show any kind of vulnerability - which added to an environment that did not build trust to those around me. For some reason Todd was able to see through my current state of chaos I was in and invested his time and energy in providing me a way to see things differently....
And as promised Todd - this chapter is dedicated to you and I truly thank you for your belief in me and never laying out judgement or giving up in me. I will also continue to pass this message to anyone that will hear it and hope others will find it helpful. For those of you that are truly looking for a different perspective to living - try to find balance in this life no matter where you are right now as you read these words. I can actually picture these words coming out in print as the thoughts continue to come to mind and transit to paper. All of us strive for greatness and this is possible by one thought and one conversation at a time of you setting your life. Thank you for giving me the courage to present my thoughts and ideas that all of human kind has know for thousands of years and I hope those of you reading this - feel the gift of your time to ingest these pages have created a positive impact and has benefited you in some form.
As your time and feelings are truly the thing that should matter the most to you.

The Eleventh Chapter - Find Your Bread Crumbs
Nov 6/15
Are you ever searching for possible signs for life's break crumbs to help determine if your on the correct track for you? I have read a lot of self help/motivational type books and there is a lot of information on providing guidance of next steps in your life and I hope this concept will be useful as well to you.
So take the things that you experience, whether it is a movie or an interest and after some time has passed, say about a month or more, that experience you had you can remember in detail and feel the positive affirmation from it.....This is a reference to life's bread crumbs leading you to your next step and reaffirming you are on the correct track.
I remember years ago watching just a small part of the original Rocky movie...This was the scene where he was running in a park like place.....It was cooler out and he had a tuque on, dressed in work out gear for colder weather....Just yesterday I was running in a park with colder weather (I am running in western Canada so the water of the lakes is starting to freeze)...In a brief moment I was flooded with the memory of that movie scene....I then experienced a moment of realization of I am on the correct pathway of life and this was followed rapidly with joy.....This joy created a surge of energy that enabled me to run even faster and provided such a fulfilling feeling.....To me it felt the universe was providing all of what I truly needed or wanted for that moment in time....The importance of living in the present is paramount....To not focus on the now, moments like these I have missed in the past and I have missed the fuel to go forward emotionally....
Part of the secret is to quiet our minds and recognize when opportunities come across our paths...What we focus on we we receive....Joy/fulfilled thoughts will create that reality in you....Never settle with your current personal development or career goals...Always strive for growth and be aware that not everyday will be easy but with the replication of a positive pattern put into your daily routine....These pattern traits, after a while, will translate into your path of success and you will receive what your truly putting out to the universe.
Take a moment...look around your current surroundings...What comes to you in regards to thoughts? Are these thoughts in alignment to what you truly want in your life? Can you feel the present in time right now? If your thoughts are not in alignment to what you want - after this realization has occurred - actively change your thoughts to what you truly would like to receive into your life...This is going to take time, if you find yourself stuck in a negative wheel of thought loop...Habit forming, whether positive or negative, will take time and mental energy.....The building blocks of any large amazing structure are usually very strong, deliberately placed to support the weight and are small in size however a very important piece to that structure....This pattern is true to your internal thoughts as well....so small in relation to you as a person....yet so vital in creating what you truly want to experience out of life.....

The Tenth Chapter - Develop and Live Your Dreams
Nov 2/15
Hopes, dreams and aspirations and putting all those thoughts into your wheel of thoughts that will lead to you creating energy and forward actions as well as actual meaningful personal self fulfillment. Over time people have tried to find purpose and self fulfillment through all different kinds of methods...Things such as religion, helping others or acts of selflessness or more personal harmful ways of self medication of some form....At the end of the day all of these forms will be difficult ways to help you achieve self fulfillment, in fact actually will slow down your personal growth and mask the true growth or insight that needs to be developed in you by you....I am not suggesting that any of the above things are bad for you or you should not do these kind things for others....In fact to do kind things for others should be something all of us should strive to do...The point is to not confuse what you are trying to do in your life.....Doing good things for others and your self development are two different things and are equally as important.... Unfortunately there is not an easy fix or acts of good deeds or pills or any kind to achieve this and ultimately it will be up to you to grow your own self awareness....Based on this thought you have to actively try hard and put effort into your self fulfillment....
Take a what appears to be a random experience or people that you bump into appears to be random... However in reality these events are probably the universe providing you for what you are actually seeking....It is up to you to act and understand these event in your life that are currently happening. From that starting point put plans in place to create a reality of self fulfillment....Read books as well, of the topics/content that you seek to add into your life...Always be humble and you never know when the most amazing gift will come to you and usually it is when you least expect it to appear...Put process into your life, study a successful person or business...Find out how they interpreted the data of challenges and created successes...Like you all these people you admire have the same challenges as you are right now.....Sometimes we will think that we are so different and our challenges are not like anyone else....Yes on the surface that is correct however the driving force of the energy of yours, mine and others experiences are all the same....When we get up in the morning....all of us have the same amount of mental energy that is ours to use as we choose....The difference in people is how we use this energy....What are we looking at doing with this energy? Trying to create good all around us or the opposite? Whatever we decide to do with this energy will then create a field around us...that will either attract great things towards us...Or not...Like Yoda has said...."do or do not, there is no try"...Once we have used this energy fuel, picture a car that once had a full tank of gas and now is empty, this is true with our mental fuel....Its up to us to decide and reflect...Did I use this gas to what I truly want? or not? Did I add to my day and others around me? What did I bring into my life today? Based on that how do I feel right now? Use those feelings to help determine how your are going to use your full tank of mental energy tomorrow...
When you start finding yourself in a state of not having enough time to do what you want to do in your day....This is a form of validation that your on your correct path...Life should be full and fulfilling on whatever you do and should not be filled with large periods of boredom...If you find yourself in a state of boredom you might be making mistakes and wasting your precious time...It is up to you to make changes and fill that boredom with tangle tools to reach your person fulfillment.

The Ninth Chapter - Being True to Yourself - Grow Your Confidence
Oct 29/15
Being true to yourself and have the confidence to be that person. To often our thoughts will turn negative and when we have a great idea or want to do something new, we feel even before we start, our thoughts and focus our shift on how we can't do this new great thing or follow up on a new idea....Once again our fear come into play and it will tell us ...What if you fail? However more importantly the question in our mind should be.. What if you succeed? Now what? Usually we are not used to actually thinking that we can do great things...and from there receiving results...Too often it is so easy to keep what we know to be our "normal"....and trying to come up with ways of not being able to do what we truly want to do.....Spend a moment and reflect, mediate to the impact to that positive thought and what it actually could mean to you. You, yes you, if you truly believe it - you can do whatever you want or become...Whether it is to become a world leader or visionary of some kind of positive change in your life....whatever it is you want...it will be...Be true to you and others will have no power to take you off your path that you have chosen for you....This path is yours and yours along and no one has the power to change that path.....If you give people the power or listen to the impact of negative words this will result in you giving up your control of your life....You are writing the pages of your life's story....no one will chose for you if it will be successful or not...Successful people do not live a life with a single thought of "I can't do it" thoughts at all and they live a life of an example of successful people that meet challenges head on and will create opportunities of those challenges...Which will lead to another part of their on-going success...Keep in mind it does take hard work and dedication for the success you seek, however it is truly up to you to make it happen...Keep your thoughts and goals simple, break them down into small bite size pieces that are possible to accomplish......Picture the fact you have decided yo want to run a full marathon...You are 40 years old and up to this point you have not ran any kind of race singe high school days, nor do you go to the gym during that time.....Find a beginners guide to accomplishing your goal and focus on one day at a time...Visualize that it is a journey to get to the ultimate goal of running that marathon...Use patterns to program your brain for success and break your goals into steps 1, 2 and 3.... From there drill them down very simple to a physical level that you can achieve that day and a measurable component put into your day each day to measure your success....
It is possible - all of your thoughts and wants, needs - Its up to you.....

The Eighth Chapter - Steps Process to Your Growth and Development
Oct 22/2015
True growth and development is very easy and is a step by step process. The only reason why growth will not happen is if we chose it not to....All successes come from hard work, determination and being motivated to truly become our greatest.. Our past development years of a child is usually an environment of "no you can't do that Johnny or no that is wrong or that is not possible" this type of feedback results in such a narrow scope of what our reality and normalcy becomes and directly impacts to a lower level of what we end up achieving in our life. The power of what we believe is what we become. So these pivotal moments when our minds are so young, full of the possibility that anything is possible (and require positive reinforcement )we receive the opposite - probably poor communication from a parent or teacher type figure.... We all know we can not change the past however with being able to understand and identify with this pattern we can do two things. First is more of a understanding to who we are and why we have become what we are. This will allow us to make concrete changes of growth. This is not the magic pill we all seek for greatness however it is another component to keep rebuilding our requirement for a strong foundation of our emotional well being. The second part to this awareness of our childhood and the impact of communication is - the next time you hear a young child speak or act in a why that is different - remember back when you were that child....How did you feel at the moment when you were sharing yourself with an adult? What kind of response did you get back from that adult? And in general as you were so young and developing what was the average outcomes of those communication moments? Based on that - how will you interact when you have that next conversation? Will you take the time needed to encourage growth and development? There will be times as well that you may need to gently redirect young minds if they are totally off track.... Yes that will happen as they are still learning how to emotional grow and express.... The same pattern can be observed in learning to walk as a young child and like the marathon runner it is easy to see the results of walking or the end of the race around the corner.... The difference with emotional growth is it is not as tangle as an outsider looking on to someone....There also is a chance that you may not be able to fill the need in these situations.....that is totally normal....all you need to do is be honest and say I am not sure and direct them to someone else.....The importance of taking the time with someone needs something and to be completely honest is key!!! Remember words are so powerful....so when you have to be honest and it might impact or take away from someone else's energy...be kind with your words.
Keep in mind I am not saying these adult type people that may have had a negative impact in your childhood development are bad people.....In fact I believe totally the opposite the vast majority of these people are good people and are doing the best of the limited teaching they themselves had....The patterns of behavior repeat and repeat.....As this pattern repeats - I have observed it seems to be based on fear of failure and sometimes causes us to live a life where we are not able to live up to our full potential.....as sensitive beings and as we all try to become stronger it is up to all of us to be aware of this and makes changes going forward.... Not only in our day to day life but to share these ideas with others with the goal to truly make a difference.....That may sound so clique but once again it really is that simple...
The wheel of thought was recently introduce to me and I found it so powerful in regards to able to make effective decisions and understand the emotions caused by them.. As the result of our emotions humans will react in totally different outcomes due to several different facts...These could be past experience or even something as simple as the current emotion felt will change an outcome that a person would normally never do....The value in the thought wheel is - try to visualize a computer you input data and based on set programmed parameters you then receive an output...So in us this process starts with some kind of stimulation/communication that impacts one of your five senses....from that moment a thought in you has now been created and based on your current emotions and past experiences your thought will create emotion. From that emotion that leads to an action which is your output back to whatever one of your fives senses were just stimulated.....So it does not matter what your stimulation is, you and only you have the power to create your reality of what will happen next....Do you want positive growth in your life? Do you want success? Do you want conflict? It is that simple, to use this thought above to start making intimidate positive change, and you don't need to spend years trying to understand the human psychology to achieve positive results in your life..
Key important facts for a healthy mid set is to keep everything you do in regards to your thoughts simple and keep to what you know and is true....Avoid at all cost - conjecture and assumptions of what other people may do or may have done or may feel within your intimate circle of friends or in your partner...Engage in actively listening, put your thoughts on hold and give the greatest gift you can to anyone - (time) is your uninterrupted and undivided attention for that brief moment,... Time is truly the greatest gift one can give another and when that happens please have full grace and acknowledge of that persons time....For in that moment and acting with this premise of being true will lead to all of what you seek and strive for in life to you. What you believe and you know to be true is the only thing that matters and the fact is "Johnny" - sometimes your behavior might not been appropriate on your output but your thought is always right...That is yours and no one else as long as this thought is based on what you know is right and true.
Write down what you want to achieve and when life is moving on, keep acting back to what you have wrote down.....Do some research of a success story and learn from that story....There is a very good chance that success story was built on a clear concept of what that person/group wanted to achieve....From that clear concept the energy starts to build, keep in mind that you will have to make adjustments along the way, as external factors will come in to play, however by staying aligned to what you truly want - you will get it!!

The Seventh Chapter - Energy is Growing or Retracting - How Does That Apply to You
Oct 14/2015
Energy is always either growing or retracting, it is never static at whatever you look at in the physical world that surrounds us...So if you can see it or in people (relationships, self-improvement...etc) or in our work or current personal development projects - depending what you put into your efforts or what your focus is whether it is negative or positive, or in some cases do not put any kind of energy, it will determine the results....It might sound somewhat magical - in a sense maybe it is, because we tend to miss, in general, how simple life gifts truly are and how simple they are to master....To daily focus on achieving your goals and to be able to be 100 percent true to your truth......no one controls that but you....and to achieve what you truly need all you have to do is to have those two key ingredients.....a specific goal and knowing your truth....No one can provide you with your next step in life....its up to you to follow your quietness inside you.....take that time you need and not get distracted by all of the easy distractions around you.....Sometimes when your working on something positive you may not feel the immediate feeling of positive growth and you may even find or question that you might be wasting your time or efforts.... Doing these times it is critical you do not ever give up and keep pushing forward, because even though you might not think something is good is around the corner the finish line might be just where you can't see it at the moment...Picture a marathon runner that is almost finished their run but stops at one last corner and not aware the finish line is just around the bend, just because they were too tired....Now in the real world would that happen realistically? Probably not and the runner and us looking on would generally all reach the same consensuses or comment "why wouldn't they just finish the run, it was done in just a few more steps and so much effort was already put in to complete the goal" - what sane person would just give up now so close to being complete? The same concept applies to our personal internal journeys of self improvement the major difference is we usually cannot see where the finish line is at on the marathon of our personal track in regards to how close that finish line is....Never quit, regroup, relearn when there are setback (oh yes - prepare yourself because you will have setbacks) and carry on to your objective you want to achieve.....
Never forget how you felt as a 5 year old child....the world was truly yours and whatever you want to achieve was up to you to make it happen....When we grow older we forget to keep things simple or allow others/distractions get in the way of who we can be....In each of us lives someone and a person that is truly great....the only difference between you and the person you must look up to (idol) and feel they are of a great value to the world or a example of success is truly you.....only you can hold yourself back and only you can unlock the key to your success....If your in a time in your life that you are feeling you are not hitting your mark or could do so much more.....remember back to when your 5 years old...What did you want do to the most? How were you going to do it? Remember the universe provides all and when we are young all those memories/abilities are freshly in our minds, as they are only currently 5 years old....So with the power of 5....Take 5 minutes everyday, remember back when you were 5, name 5 things you wanted to do or see or complete....take 5 minutes to research tangible tools of how your going to achieve your goals of personal greatness.....and remember its only you that decides what is great!!!!! Then it is a simple as to start taking one step at a time to finish your marathon....

The Sixth Chapter - Recognizing Energy Growth
Oct 13/2015
I was fortunate enough to experience a rock concert recently and was able to view it from the front side of the stage.... The room started with a normal energy and due to the fact the performers energy was up-beat and high.... I noticed that energy transfer to the crown and this energy kept on building during the performance.....A homeless man went up on stage and sang an amazing song....All this energy was freely shared and it was provided by people who truly wanting to give....Another thing I noticed of how all the performers were all grateful and knew the magnitude of their impact on the audience and were genuine respectful of that gift of being able to create energy with people....Follow what the universe is providing you and life will become so amazing....you will actually expedience jolts of energy that will give you goose bumps that will cover your entire body and cause the hair to stand up on your arms...As long as you are able to recognize the starting of this experience and allow this experience to grow....

The Fifth Chapter - Learning From Your Past Failed Relationships
Oct 9/2015
The pain of past failed relationships and the hurtful words used against you might make it difficult to move forward....There might be a tendency to be always be looking backwards and trying to re-create the good times had....Which is totally impossible...(well a disclaimer....it could happen to reignite a failed past relationship and truly becoming healthy....the reality is that is very unlikely) in the currently reality we live in....A tangible tool to help you move forward can be use these past failed experiences as a fuel to ignite your internal emotional motor (your mind) to move forward.... Like the tree losing it's leaves freely we have to also let the past go freely and move out the paralyzing cycle of regret....( by truly doing this it allows us to center ourselves and live a life in nature in perfect balance).... Picture that emotional pain and use that energy to create an environment that will allow you to move forward.... Some may perceive this as a negative tactic, but as long as you can move forward, and start to heal it is worth the cost of that little moment (time in your life) of negative energy fuel....Be mindful of not allowing yourself to stay in a negative mindset ....as once you know you are going start to slowly leave all the negative behind and turn over your fuel to one of positive energy.... Allow karma and the wrong projected or done to you alone with the person that you feel has doing the wrong to you.....Let them carry that burden as it is only theirs alone to carry it as they have created the negative energy to you......To help determine what belongs to you or them....take a moment and feel and you will find the truth....be mindful if is your responsibility to take back both positive and negative energy you have spent in the past failed relationship....as this will enable you to center yourself once more....perfect harmony.....Spending time and energy to correct their wrong is a waste of your time and will slow down your healing process and slow down the breaking of the cycle of looking backwards......
The pain of past failed relationships and the hurtful words used against you might make it difficult to move forward....There might be a tendency to be always be looking backwards and trying to re-create the good times had....Which is totally impossible...(well a disclaimer....it could happen to reignite a failed past relationship and truly becoming healthy....the reality is that is very unlikely) in the currently reality we live in....A tangible tool to help you move forward can be use these past failed experiences as a fuel to ignite your internal emotional motor (your mind) to move forward.... Like the tree losing it's leaves freely we have to also let the past go freely and move out the paralyzing cycle of regret....( by truly doing this it allows us to center ourselves and live a life in nature in perfect balance).... Picture that emotional pain and use that energy to create an environment that will allow you to move forward.... Some may perceive this as a negative tactic, but as long as you can move forward, and start to heal it is worth the cost of that little moment (time in your life) of negative energy fuel....Be mindful of not allowing yourself to stay in a negative mindset ....as once you know you are going start to slowly leave all the negative behind and turn over your fuel to one of positive energy....

The Fourth Chapter - Benefits of Your Self-Improvement
Oct 7/2015
When working for self improvement and personal development work on the easy wins first. Benefits are two fold.... One that is critical and most important as it will build your self confidence and self esteem to help with your strong foundation - which leads to a reset to a long and healthy life emotional well being. The second benefit is the high return on your emotional investment with a relativity low output of emery required on your part to accomplish your goal.... Which later helps you build a positive pattern for you to accomplish even harder and more difficult life tasks...(that one might have found very difficult in the past)....Like any physical activity the more you practice this new skill the easier it becomes therefore the pattern replicates with your self development and self esteem.....Keep in mind that all things that are great take work and calculated risks and true positive growth will be difficult...All around us there are signs and successful people telling and showing us how to be great...... The biggest challenge we all face is to actually believe we can become great....(the value and power of a thought).....So in short we truly are our own worst enemy....The more we victimize ourselves the more we will be in a circle of self defeat and ultimately become paralyzed in actually living life and never fully realize all of our unlimited potential....

The Third Chapter - Your Foundation of Self-Esteem
Oct 5/2015
One of life's keys to happiness and success is your personal self-esteem. Self-esteem is the building block for our house of life. Self-esteem needs to be strong for a foundation to support greatness.... The (your) foundation will be the limiting factor of your life's house. I remember reading the secret and how the world (universe) provides endless of whatever you truly seek into your life. You can take dump trucks of whatever you seek into your life whether it is positive or negative. So if feel you are currently suffer from low amounts of self-esteem like I do or did (it seems to ebb and flow over time), as strange as it sounds start each day and look at yourself in the mirror and say I love myself. It takes work and it is possible to pull yourself from the dark abyss of self pity and low self-esteem. Also condition your mind - so promote positive thoughts and ensure when negative ones start - be able to identify a negative thought is starting and tell your mind to stop thinking negative ones. When either positive or negative thoughts extend out (picture your thought as a small pebble getting dropped into a calm lake and the waves slowly extending out from the center of the pebble contacting the water) from your mind will come into your life....Acknowledge all the feelings from these thoughts that lead into experiences and move forward.....I found I will (would) over analyze the emotions of these experiences..... I am working on to just enjoy the positive ones and be aware of the negative ones......limit the negative ones with preventing the small pebble to hit the water.....With the goal to move forward....
another random thought that day....I have two beautiful kids, a son and a daughter....as they were going through their teenage years...I had a hard time to let them be them....fundamental building blocks (their foundation is created by the teenage years)....Like all of us...they have been created as perfect vessels so I am learning to watch them be perfect and true to who they are.....There were times I felt there was some negative choices that were been made, the importance to have some uncomfortable conversations of those choices.....I would tell them I love them and then let the experience go....it is up to them to create and make their own path in life...... TO Nick and Meg whom I love very much and daily am grateful to be a part of their life.....

The Second Chapter - Your Survival and The Balance of Nature
Oct 1/2015
The importance to let things or issues go when the signs show you to let go. The urge to fight for survival is paramount in all of us and fight for what we know or used to is common.....However the more we fight for what is not meant to be anymore the deeper the unbalance our lives will become. Picture a maple tree in Canada in Oct (beginning of the month with the leaves still on) leaves are all starting to turn color and slowly start to fall off in the tree's preparation for winter. The tree freely gives away its leaves and in return the tree lives in perfect harmony with it's surroundings of nature which equals perfect balance......

The First Chapter - The Introduction
Good day everyone, this is the first time for me to do something like this.....please keep in mind I do not have any type of formal training and I am writing this to share with you all. My goals are to continue to understand life's experiences by sharing with all of you. I am curious to see what you think of these, what appears to be random thoughts and observations of life and patterns that seem to exist all around us.....so in short this will not be the traditional read and very organic. I also am doing this to explore a healthy venue to heal myself as well I hope some of these thoughts would resonate with you and find comfort as well or at least provoke a thought that stays with you.....How do you measure the value of a thought??
I do have a rough format set out, I have completed several short chapters that I have wrote down in a book that are dated at the time I completed them. I also wanted to share how I got this far of putting down words to paper and sharing with you all. I have a friend, mentor, leader that I have shared some of these ideas you will read over the coming days and his comment to me is that this is good materiel. My thought immediately response back to him was - but this is not new ideas or concepts as this type of thoughts have existed since the beginning of time.... His response back was yes that is correct, however the way you explain your view of these same concepts turn the ideas into something fresh. I thought about that for a while....and in typical human fashion I did nothing at all with my thoughts in regards to writing them down with the goal to share with those that would like to read them. Over approximately a years time my friend kept asking me....so have you started the book?? Of course my response remained a no with the excuse I am thinking about it.....One day I received a package in my mail and opened it to find a beautiful brown leather bound book. I opened it to the first lined page to read this....dated Sept 28/2015.
Craig,
Congratulations on starting a new chapter. "It always seem impossible until its done."

There are no new ideas, the difference is to be able to re-present patterns and theories and ideas in a way that is relevant to the current lens of people around you right now and in this time. Think of going to a eye doctor for a eye check up, the image on the wall far way does not change, it's only the lens of the phoropter that change, which in fact makes the image on the wall clear and therefore appears to you that it changes.
