Thinking of great stories that live over time and how in some stories the themes are similar yet the topics are different. I recently watched a short video of a writer and they spoke of you never know where your choices will lead. Also how long it will take for an individual quest to become a major positive life change event.
Recently I have started taking another learning step in my life. One of my quests is to serve people and help people see things in a different light. In my new learning quest I will be doing some traveling to go to a university. I am feeling excitement mixed with uneasiness as this journey is new to me.
As I started this journey I reflected back to about a year ago and someone came into my life expressing they have just completed the training. As the conversation developed they commented that I might also benefit from this training they themselves has completed. So I did some research and yes agreed this is something that is in alignment with the direction I want to go. I have a passion for this type of learning.
So now on the evening before I go to be around over 2800 people from all over the world. I am grateful for a single thought of over a year ago that was shared freely to me. I am in a another growth phase and know it is one as I am feeling a slight sense of being uncomfortable. Hence a sign of individual growth when you are feeling this uneasiness.
A sign I have learned to recognize in my life that this feeling is needed to be in a growth phase. When you have these feelings it is vital to push yourself forward one step at a time. The reality is you don't know how or what to do right now. However with one step at a time as you move forward all will become clear to you. It is like walking in a deep dense fog and you can't see what is around a corner. Yet as you are going somewhere there is only one successful option for you and that is to move forward. As you move forward through the dense fog you are able to see around the corner and the visibility of knowing is given to you.
This pattern replicates in your own personal growth. It is important to want to grow and once this awareness is realized in you. The universe will provide you a path for your want of growth. It is vital when you are in this state to keep your eyes and feelings open to your opportunities. One of the most important tools is to listen to your feelings or intuition. As these act as your guide that aligns up to your passion.
This passion is what you have been created for in this life time. Through this passion will allow you to live a fulfilled and happy life. The key for this to happen in your life is keep your passion focused in your feelings and your sight. Make each thought and choice on a daily biases that aligns up to your passion.
You will be distracted in your daily life with other peoples demands however work each interaction back to your passion. This should be in your alignment of your passion or your foundation. Once you start on your journey of passion your purpose will become clear. Like walking in the dense fog as you round your corner your destination will now be clearly visible.
All the steps you took helped you arrive safely and in alignment to your foundation. Picture these steps as your passion and that leads to your purpose. These steps are your growth and knowledge that might take years to arrive at your purpose.
Enjoy each step along the way as you are able to enjoy each step of your journey as the destination becomes clearer. This purpose is yours along and using tools like these will allow you to unlock your greatness.
As only you know your purpose and no one else truly knows you. Today is your day, do not wait one more moment to delay your purpose.

The 70th Chapter - Coaching Your Kids - The Skill of Transition.
March 5/17
As a single father being able to see my children grow up has been such a grateful and fulfilling experience. Watching, guiding and coaching my kids go through each major life check points. From starting school, to changing schools, to sport activities and seeing them adapt to each new check point.
I have discussed with other parents as to what to expect next and what do my kids need in their next phase of life starts for them. From all those conversations the need for kids to be able to have the skill of transition is a pattern that has reoccurred. A major one of life chapters is just starting for my oldest and just behind my youngest is starting that journey.
That major life change is starting a career and starting the transition of moving on their own. Years ago this event seemed so far away, yet now it is here and happening right now. It is with happiness and some sadness, as I realize this major life change even will change our dynamics forever.
We have called ourselves the three musketeers for the last nine years. During that time we have all experienced so much and all have grown. I am grateful of the opportunities that surround my kids as with these opportunities will enable them to go out into the world to function independently.
The thought of time comes to mind and to embrace each moment with your kids. Depending on where the age of your kids is currently at. I encourage you to stay in the moment with them and enjoy being the single biggest influence they will have in their life. With that influence comes great responsibility and the impact you leave them with. This impact will be the starting base of their foundation of their entire life.
As a parent the need to truly serve your kids is paramount in all factors of their growth. The importance of taking your personal success in every aspect of your life. From your professional career to your successful personal relationships. It is your duty to transfer as much knowledge of your successes to your kids.
The age we live in on this planet, the real reality is there are now more human beings than has ever been before. As such less resources for each person, so at the end of the day your knowledge transfer can be game changing for your kids success. As this world is very competitive and cold in regards to human beings trying to gather the energy we all need to survive.
Some cultures handle this transfer of knowledge in different ways and each has different levels of effectiveness Yet the pattern of being the most successful remains in the this world. The importance of being able to teach the skill of transition to our kids is one of the key areas to enable them for a strong foundation of adaptability.
There used to be a time when we could rest for a while after achieving something. Whether it was in our personal life or work life. Now that is not the case anymore as with the speed of knowledge transfer over the last 50 years has increased. Hence the reality is that due to this increase level of energy that exists in the world around us. The importance for us to teach our kinds how to complete the skill of transition. Change as we used to know it will never be the same and as each passing moment that speed is increasing.
To teach the the value to our kids to never rest and to keep pushing forward with their dreams is vital. The harsh reality is if they don't master this skill others will and your kids will be left behind. If this process starts to happen when they are older, as a parent it will be more difficult for you to teach them the skill of transition.
The process of continuous improvement within your kids life is required for them to live a full life. Isn't this a goal as parents we all want for our kids? To be better and stronger than we are.
For our kids to have the skills to be able to live their life to their greatest potential. To be not held back by us and our dreams that we have failed to accomplish in our life.
Enjoy each moment with your kids and by doing this it will help build the skill of transition.

The 69th Chapter - The Energy of Creativity
March 4/17
My thoughts have been on the energy of creativity. So whether you enjoy creating stories, new songs or new art all that energy of creativity is floating around us.
So whatever your natural passion is of your form of creativity your thoughts and creations come from the universe. Like an old school radio signal your antenna is able to pick up these creative energies for you to harness. The beauty of this energy is abundant and unlimited in it's giving to you. When something comes to you, grab it, mold it into you based on your experiences. If you do not capture it when it comes to you that exact form of opportunity may go to someone else.
Picture a park bench waiting for someone to come sit down and enjoy that place to sit. If someone sits down at that bench before you that spot is now currently taken in that moment. That opportunity is now closed for you. The importance of making each moment count and make each opportunity to create value in your growth is paramount.
Grow your own personal accountability and realize it is you that is creating your now. You are attracting that energy into your life. The concept of time and how we view use of that time to create our reality is key. Also the concept of balance and how great growth comes at great risks of our current normalcy. Our natural comfort zone can sometimes act as a barrier for our growth.
Like most great companies and people there usually is a story of a start in a point in time. Where people have risked all in the effort to succeed. Due to this all in great risks tactic the universe provided a great return in regard to success.
So what are you doing in your life that you would like to continue? Or what do you want to improve? Are you using your time in a way that is providing value for what you want? Are you taking risks that are in alignment of what you want? Perhaps it is time to start making different decisions that are in your alignment? It is not an option to remove the person sitting on the park bench however it is an option to look for another one.
So whatever you chose to create the amount of energy put into your creation will equal itself in strength. As nature is in perfect balance the energy needed to undo your creation has to be greater than the energy you have put into it. All things can be impacted with the energy of creation the only variable that can determine how something can be undone is time plus the amount of energy.
There are stories of people leaving their hand print in a mountain side. In this equation of leaving a hand print in the wall the amount of time was very high and the amount of energy produced by laying a hand on solid rock was low. Yet with time a result was seen with a hand print on a solid rock wall. If one was to take a power drill bit and drilled a hole in the same rock. Fill that hole with a explosives the results of setting of this explosions would also change that rock wall forever. As the origin of change is different hence the end result will look different.
The equation variable has also been inverse as such the amount of time required to complete this result is low and the energy of blasting is high to over come the strength of the solid wall. So create your identity of one based of strength with high amounts of positive energy. When you notice a force trying to undo your growth be aware of the two facts of time and amount of energy directed to what you have created.
If you truly want your creations to remain intact you will need to make changes to stop the process of undoing what you have created. That might be staying away from a person or perhaps a refocus on your diet. At the end of this journey only you are the captain of your ship.

The 68th Chapter - Personal Relationships and Honesty
Feb 26/17
My thoughts turned to personal relationships and honesty. The communication process of getting to know someone and to trust your instincts when you have feelings.
As I have moved through life there was a time when the need to have a personal relationship was important. Regardless of the fact of what my insights were feeling I would sacrifice them to satisfy the need to have a relationship. At the time I did not realize this unhealthy behavior was causing a end result of me losing myself. By one conversation and thought at a time I slowly disappeared to a place of terminal and internal dismay.
The importance of trying to make something happen out of nothing comes to mind. No matter how hard I tried to be successful in my past relationships I was not able to level up. The signs were all there as well as the patterns of replications. Yet I refused to acknowledge them and integrate them into my life.
As I continue my quest to learn and grow by using these types of thoughts in my life. The confidence and knowing has been expanding in who I am as a person. It feels incredible and at first this process was difficult for me in the beginning. There was not as many good days as there is now. As time goes forward I am experiencing more great days and the sense of positive well being is felt.
This is a key takeaway to have this component in your life's quest to find your direction. If you find yourself in your current situation that your insights are telling you to change. Follow them as this is the universe providing you with tangible tools for you to integrate strength into your life.
When you have a moment of quiet time, quiet your mind and ask yourself are you happy? If not, write down a list of three things that are affecting you in a negative way. Once identified explore ways that you can address these three things. Return back to your alignment core and determining what you really want. In this modern age of convenience and internet dating a lot of folks are sometimes looking for the next best thing. While continuing a current relationship and having a eye looking for something else. If you find yourself thinking and feeling this applies to you. The importance of taking a time out for yourself is what is required.
Create your alignment of what you truly want and listen to your internal insights. Once you successfully completed this task the universe will provide the perfect partner for you. You will know before this person comes into your life exactly what your looking for. Once you meet this person you will know this is the person sent for you. The desire to look for anyone else will be over.
Like the passing of time, you will feel a sense of calmness and be able to live life. You will know you have learned with your past and have integrated a new skill set in your life. The sense of the feeling of leveling up will provide you that feeling of comfortableness.
Nature always trusts their instincts and this concept needs to be replicated in you. This will allow your growth and you will notice you will start attracting positive new people in your life. Allow your insights to guide your growth. Be mindful to not live your life in fear of not following your insights.
Imagine a bird never following their instincts to leave the nest and to never fly. That concept does not make sense so as your insights are telling you to fly then leave your nest. Wouldn't you naturally want to fly and grow?
What is your instincts telling you? What are you doing to do right now?

The 67th Chapter - The Gift of Interactions With Others
Feb 25/17
As you know I value the gift of experiences and interactions from other people. As my journey goes forward I am reflecting about an experience I had this week.
The importance of how one interacts with others is brought to my mind. I randomly bumped into a person I have known for quite sometime now. I was surprised of the large amount of negative energy this person was carrying with them and projecting this energy towards others. As I briefly started to talk with this person this behavior of projecting negative energy towards me continued. It was like being in a dark room with someone having a flash light and that beam was negative energy. One couldn't help but feel that beam of negative energy piecing the darkness.
I know we all struggle in our life from time to time however the importance of always being mindful of what your projecting onto others should be taken into consideration. With this experience I have become quite curious if that same energy would be directed to me again if I saw this person in the future. So I purposely went out of my way to see if this feeling could be replicated again. Sure enough it was and it felt the movie Ground Hog Day.
So in both times of a brief conversation and the impact was a feeling of negative energy. I was not personally offended or hurt by this persons negative tractor beam force in anyway. The take away for me was to be mindful of how my interaction with others and how my impact can effect others.
The pattern of what the overall effect you create in your life is so simple. How one moment and one thought at a time can shape your life. The importance of always checking each and every thought before you allow that thought to grow. Ask yourself what is the origin of that thought and did it come from a place of kindness or not? Whatever your thought pattern is, does it align up to what you truly want in your life?
So when we enter into an area of our life that seem to be negative and to stop that spiral spinning of losing ones life force. Step one is to realize you are the one creating your reality. Step two is to make one thought at a time that is in alignment to what you truly want in your life. From these two steps you will start to experience a shift of focus into your life.
With my interaction with this person I realized the negative energy had no effect on me and my positive energy actually provided an environment where this person felt compelled to leave. In both meetings I could feel my positive energy overpower the negative energy. When this person realized their energy had no effect on me this person quickly withdrew.
As these two interactions left an impact of observation and experience. I couldn't help but wonder if these two interactions had left an impact with this person. My guess would be no as there was such a high level of negative energy in this person. I realized we can not impact everyone to see the world in a positive view point however what we can control is our mental work space health.
The great experiment would be to join these positive work spaces through mental energy to others around us that are like minded. So picture a massive matrix of positive thoughts and energy. We are all connect so by connecting this matrix of touch points with our alignment of thoughts would truly start to impact others. I will suggest the ability to create a positive environment would be unlimited and only limited to the thought of what is possible.
This would be timeless and leveling up of our continuous energy to enable us to travel to places we have not thought possible. All this is possible by one thought at a time in yourself and like the movie the Field of Dreams. Having the thought of you to build your internal ball field they will come and by that you will continue to attract positive into your life.
This process will continue to grow and is truly unlimited in it's growth. All starts with one positive alignment thought at a time.

The 66th Chapter - Gratefulness and Your Alignment
Feb 20/17
The choices we make on a daily basis ultimately will add to our life or will take away from our energy. Currently I have posted 48 chapters of sharing of my thoughts onto my blog. I was recently asked by someone who has read each one. How does it feel when you have finished posting a chapter? This has caused me to pause as I never really put this specific thought into a feeling.
So as I thought about what my answer would be and how to articulate this thought from my feeling. The sense of gratefulness was the first thought that came to me. This person also communicate how much they have enjoyed reading them.
The next thought was the sense of accomplishment with the completion of each chapter followed by the wish that others feel a sense of value also in reading the blog. Then lastly followed by a sense of excitement to where the future will direct my quest. The sense of feeling more confident and that this is truly another beginning for me also comes to mind.
The sense of wanting to continue creating as well to improve the quality of these writings is another goal I have. One of my original goals was to use the venue to help provide a foundation of my personal healing combined with growing my confidence. As I check in and reflect over the past year. I think about what have I done well and have a sense of accomplishment. What are areas that I could improve? Have I made choices that are in alignment to my healing?
Once you start on a new journey in your life the importance to take a moment to reflect on your progress is vital for your continued growth. Perhaps changes have occurred or your growth has shifted your lenses of reality and it is time to move onto something else.
We are genetically programmed to improve and grow. Ultimately it is up to you to create that growth so be mindful to the fact if you stop to grow. Identify what is causing you to stop to grow and focus back on your alignment. The pattern will become clear to you as you reflect to your growth and next steps will also appear for you. Also know that no one person or any external factors can stop that growth in you. Granted your current situation might be extremely difficult in regards to how other people are impacting you. However at the end of the day you have the power to change your reality.
The moment you blame others for your current lack of personal growth is the moment you have truly started to fade away. With this mind set the quest of your growth and happiness will seem to be like a distant far away land. You will become a prisoner in your own thoughts and will not be able to step forward to that oasis of greatness that waits for you.
Although there might be current external factors surrounding you that are creating an environment of not being able to grow. The first step is to realize this growth has stopped and you are not able to recognize the person you currently are. Your inner child will always be there is is currently waiting for you to allow the quest of your growth to return.
You have all the strength inside you to make positive changes. The secret is to believe you are capable to make these changes in your life. Like a small tree that starts to grow in a crack in concrete and over time that tree will shatter the hard concrete. You to will be able to replicate that level of strength. The first step is to listen and feel your inner child. This will enable you to once again love yourself which then leads to your confidence to blossom.
Even if your external factors of concrete feel too strong for you to grow. Like in nature it can over come anything over time. So can you replicate this process in your internal person you are.
Encourage your inner child to take that first step and go forward to realize your greatness. Become a source of strength.
The choices we make on a daily basis ultimately will add to our life or will take away from our energy. Currently I have posted 48 chapters of sharing of my thoughts onto my blog. I was recently asked by someone who has read each one. How does it feel when you have finished posting a chapter? This has caused me to pause as I never really put this specific thought into a feeling.
So as I thought about what my answer would be and how to articulate this thought from my feeling. The sense of gratefulness was the first thought that came to me. This person also communicate how much they have enjoyed reading them.
The next thought was the sense of accomplishment with the completion of each chapter followed by the wish that others feel a sense of value also in reading the blog. Then lastly followed by a sense of excitement to where the future will direct my quest. The sense of feeling more confident and that this is truly another beginning for me also comes to mind.
The sense of wanting to continue creating as well to improve the quality of these writings is another goal I have. One of my original goals was to use the venue to help provide a foundation of my personal healing combined with growing my confidence. As I check in and reflect over the past year. I think about what have I done well and have a sense of accomplishment. What are areas that I could improve? Have I made choices that are in alignment to my healing?
Once you start on a new journey in your life the importance to take a moment to reflect on your progress is vital for your continued growth. Perhaps changes have occurred or your growth has shifted your lenses of reality and it is time to move onto something else.
We are genetically programmed to improve and grow. Ultimately it is up to you to create that growth so be mindful to the fact if you stop to grow. Identify what is causing you to stop to grow and focus back on your alignment. The pattern will become clear to you as you reflect to your growth and next steps will also appear for you. Also know that no one person or any external factors can stop that growth in you. Granted your current situation might be extremely difficult in regards to how other people are impacting you. However at the end of the day you have the power to change your reality.
The moment you blame others for your current lack of personal growth is the moment you have truly started to fade away. With this mind set the quest of your growth and happiness will seem to be like a distant far away land. You will become a prisoner in your own thoughts and will not be able to step forward to that oasis of greatness that waits for you.
Although there might be current external factors surrounding you that are creating an environment of not being able to grow. The first step is to realize this growth has stopped and you are not able to recognize the person you currently are. Your inner child will always be there is is currently waiting for you to allow the quest of your growth to return.
You have all the strength inside you to make positive changes. The secret is to believe you are capable to make these changes in your life. Like a small tree that starts to grow in a crack in concrete and over time that tree will shatter the hard concrete. You to will be able to replicate that level of strength. The first step is to listen and feel your inner child. This will enable you to once again love yourself which then leads to your confidence to blossom.
Even if your external factors of concrete feel too strong for you to grow. Like in nature it can over come anything over time. So can you replicate this process in your internal person you are.
Encourage your inner child to take that first step and go forward to realize your greatness. Become a source of strength.

The 65th Chapter - Find Your Feeling
Feb 19/17
Have you ever felt a feeling of not feeling it? Whether it is in a work environment or when you were younger growing up in school? Or perhaps now in your personal life? Have your views and ides seem so different from those of your peers? When you expressed these ideas were they received with a general misunderstand by others?
If this did happen did your confidence suffer and as a result of lower confidence levels in you, did you stop sharing your ideas? As you knew your unconventional thoughts would not fit into others current ways of thinking. As time progressed in this environment did you ever reflect on your ideas of past and now see others coming up with your ideas you previously had shared with the same folks? At the time when you shared your same ideas that were not adopted and now are they are met with excitement.
As time has passed all of the above has occurred to my at some point in time in my life. There was a time when I struggled with these experience and the direct result was the overall lowering of my confidence. Which lead me to question my ability to have strong critical thinking skills in both the work force and my personal life. As with patterns, usually the effects of our experience in life will be both in our work life and personal life.
As I continue on this life's journey - there was a time when negative comments of my expression did affect me and the result was a withdrawn sense of self. Inward I was still the same person although outwardly I struggled as I was trying to fit into my surroundings and to be accepted.
As we are social beings and the need is strong to be a part of our pack, I realized I altered my response in alignment of that goal to fit in. Key ingredients of behavior is different in all of us, yet the need to produce value and to be value by our pack is in everyone. I have spoke before about the power of words and how they can impact others, is the thought that comes to mind now.
How often have you expressed something and been met with some type of negative reinforcement? Did it cause you to stop or alter your path based on that negative feedback? By being able to realize this is a key component in the communication loop and is another key to unlocking your gift that is lying in you wanting you to discover.
At first it will feel uncomfortable and unnatural to express yourself to others, yet I am going to encourage you to push past the feeling of wanting to stop your growth based on negative reinforcements of your environment factors given to you by others. As long as your coming from a place of kindness, push yourself and go forward.
Explore and grow your gift. It may have a large effect to other around you or may not, however that should not be your goal to look for significant feedback others at the beginning. As your goal is your growth with no expectation from others. Once you start to explore, take feedback both positive and negative from others.
Reflect and decide what feedback content can be utilized to further help your growth. Picture the feedback as a form as water to the young growing apple tree. The pattern of growth in nature requires balance as well your internal growth will also require balance. Be mindful of the negative feedback that you will not allow this to stop your growth and to impact on what you truly want to do in your life.
It took me 42 years to finally start writing and sharing my thoughts with others. As I continue to create, the sense of expression has provided me the gift of growing confidence and enjoyment of being able to share. My encouragement to you, is to start living your life based on your internal compass. Timing is a key ingredient for success, so perhaps the timing is right for you to start right now taking baby steps in the direction you truly want to go.
As you start to do this task, I assure you will look back at your life at some point and be grateful that you took that first step to follow your gift and create your passion.
Now is your moment and make each thought count of unlocking your greatness.
