A dream come true

expr:id='"post-" + data:post.id' >

As I was waking up this morning I realized that the world will not stop for me. Now I know you must be saying to yourself no shit Sherlock. But stick with me on this one.

Last night I bumped my head hard on the mental idea that I was human. I realized that all that affect me also affects others. The realization that I was not special hit me right on the top of my head and there was nothing that I could do about it. I was up the creek without a paddle as they would say.

Ok here is the gist of this morning. I awakened from a very interesting dream filled with clues and ideas that I could not comprehend during its play time.  In this dream I had everything that I could ever wish for without working hard for it, then a sudden turn came about. All of a sudden a brain opened up and became filled with motion and activity beyond anything that I have every seen. Within this mind, I can see art, worlds beyond imagination, music, and writings, along with skyscrapers and loving couples with great families. Achievement was on high with positive marks in everything. Then the alarm clock went off. So what does this mean you ask?

For once in my life I realized that I have finally awaken from a long dream coated nightmare, of not working hard at what I Wanted. The thing is I have the talent and the skill, mashed against the mind and the will to get things done. However I have become complacent with mediorcre results that allowed me minor joys in life. I realized in this dream that I had to create what I wanted and be creative at doing so. Until then I would hate everything that I am doing and nothign will come of it because it will seem like labor instead of art.

The moral of my story is that life is art. It is up to you to paint the picture with the design within you mind and heart. Until you do this it will be basic and far to fundemental for you to care. Almost repetative and mundane. This will drive you into the ground without accokmplishing your personal goals. So when you awaken everyday, think for five minutes how you will apply a piece of you to what it is that you do. That is all that your life ask of you and you should ask the same of your life.

Sunday Morning Questions

expr:id='"post-" + data:post.id' >




We wake up every Sunday morning with a barrage of thoughts, what I am sure are infamous questions amongst those who are not prepared. What is this week going to be like? Am I going to accomplish the ultimate success? Will I find my way? What the hell happened last night? Who is this next to me? Although these questions are examples of positives depending on how you look at them. They are more likely to spend time in your mind as a huge negative followed by uncertainty, that cause us to freeze up. This is the norm and something needs to be done about it.

I plan on beginning this week by eliminating the negatives associated with the thoughts and look at the positive. Take for instance, the who is this next to me question. The first thoughts in your mind should lead you to want to get to know the person better. All to often we awaken from Hot Drunken sex, sober and ready for the world, but soon roll over to realize that we have a guest. An invited guest that we need to know better. However after sobriety we tell the lie, it is when we are drunk we tell the truth. When one inhibitions are broken down, you get the real person. So take into account that what you have there is a piece of the real you lying next to you. Deal with it and get it right this time.

Whether you are male or female you have dealt with this. I have as a male dealt with it in the past and I am re hatching these thoughts to understand who I am and where I am headed. Maybe then I will be able to answer the other questions that are on that Sunday morning list. Such as will I be able to do something of significance this week?!

So if you are reading this. I challenge you to open your mind everyday to what has taken place. Use that information to build a stronger you. The well informed are powerful and those who are informed about themselves are ten times that. Be powerful by knowing thy self. All that you seek comes from within and nowhere else.

So the next time you awaken with a question in your mind. Remember these famous words.

A. Powell Davies:

Life is just a chance to grow a soul.

Abraham Lincoln:

And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Write these thoughts down in bold letters above your mirror, in your cubical, in your office, make it a wallpaper on your computer. This will remind you to take honest steps towards that which is important; yourself!

Whole and Unique

expr:id='"post-" + data:post.id' >


The journey of life consist of days and the seconds within them. The challenges of that journey is all based upon how you accomplish each moment. When you are offered to get something done get it done. No matter the scale of each task life is affected not only by the outcome but by that which we consider insignificant and useless. It is those little things that we pretend do not matter, but if they were gone we would lose ever willful piece of who we are. On the flip if that was to go an we aimed for who we are we will accomplish life, far greater than our current status.

The other day I am in the office and I realize that things are not going as planned and I am piling up work in the form of lost opportunity and lack of focus. My superiors are ringing my phone and sending me meeting request to figure out what exactly is up with me. I have very little answers formulated. All I have at this time are excuses; valid reasons that I allow to become the road block on the road to my success. Then it comes to me one night as I am review my calendar. I missed everything and my output is down by 30%. I am not writing the stories, I am half assing every attempt to produce viable works. I read through what I have to offer and I am drawing blanks as to what needs to be done.


The problem is that it dawns on me I do not fit into the puzzle correctly. I am trying to fill the wrong piece of it.  It is when I stepped out of myself and looked at the entire problem, I identified my role and accomplished my task.

It is not easy doing so because everyday of our lives we are forced to make due. We are broken down to work in areas on the global map of  survival and in doing so a large group of us are lost and can not be reclaimed. It is the few that are reclaim their niche that go for the gold and win. Just because you play Hockey does not mean you will be a great golfer. Don't get me wrong you can work at it, however if you do not love it, you do not fit. The binding glue that will take you to the future is a love for what you do. Simple plans are often big plans if they are done with love. It is then when you are loving what you do that you will be able to add your uniqueness to it and become whole.

The future is only kind to those who love themselves and what they do. So go out there look ahead and begin to apply love to what you do, and if you can not find out where you fit in the puzzle and go for it with love. Own every moment of your life as if it is your last minute to get it right and you will find success.
