Focus
Hi Gang. Not a lot of messages coming through lately. Though I still have ambitions of writing on here every day. Could it just be a simple focus adjustment? Not sure.
What I do know is that what you focus on expands. If you focus on problems, you have more problems. If you focus on answers, you have more answers.
This is why taking action is crucial. Action pinpoints your focus and will always give you results, for better or for worse. Results lead to expansion.

Light
Ok go into your imagination right now. You are a being of light. You were re-born here on Earth to participate in a free will experiment. You knew going in you would have complete amnesia. The hope is that you would eventually remember or at least acknowledge the light and then influence the planet in a positive way for the betterment and evolution of the human species.
What happens as you are developing from infant to adult is you get draped in layers and layers of programming. Sometimes this programming is detrimental and it’s not that your light is fading, but it is getting covered up. It still exists there beneath it all.
They say we spend the first half of our lives building up our egos and the second half of our lives tearing them down. This is a similar analogy to releasing all that dims this light. We need our egos to protect us for sure, but the walls that have been built may be drowning out our voice. Sometimes it is time for a more modern design and re-build.

Sparks
Not sure about you guys but I’m pretty sure my purpose in life comes in 2 parts. That is to be free and help others be free. I’m talking about financial freedom, creative freedom, societal freedom, etc etc. Every sense of the word.
My studies have led me to the fact that optimization of mind, body, and spirit will get me there the quickest. And this blog here is documentation of that journey.
People have been asking what this site is all about and it might not be that obvious so this is my public statement. Lol.

Greatness
There’s a new flow in town. Actually it’s been there but we might not have noticed it. Let’s ride it.
“Becoming the greatest” has just been shortened to “being great”. To competitive people this might sound soft. Like not striving to be the greatest is settling or not trying your best. But I think that is just it, “trying” or “striving” instead of just “being.”
It’s about enjoying yourself. Give yourself permission to have fun with it. I bring this up because I work with people trying to make their product or service “the greatest” and if they don’t become the next Steve Jobs or Steven Spielberg then their life is a failure. It’s especially noticeable here in LA actually.
I appreciate ambition but not at the cost of fun. This chapter of misery is over and out dated. Ambition is not competition. I think this era of follower counts, likes, and comments etc has faded.
I said in a recent video interview that there are no more good photos or bad photos, just photography. I was stumbling with it and will probably look real dumb when it comes out. The interviewer didn’t get what I was trying to say and I actually didn’t either until just now.
That is that the action itself is great. Mix the action with passion and purpose and that’s more than enough to change your life, in turn the lives of those around you, and in turn the world. What more can you ask for.
