Effectiveness, Not Perfection, is the Name of the Game

I hope you’re not standing in your way or sitting on untapped treasure and potential while waiting for something to be “perfect,” “good enough” or unnecessarily impressive. I can understand why you might want to do that. But I hope you can understand why others on the same road might be passing you by while you wait, or why your dreams might still be on the shelf even after all this time. If you’re stuck, stalled, disappointed or frustrated with your progress or level of manifestation in some endeavor, my advice to you today is to shift your focus to being effective.  Effectiveness might not always be pretty or polished, but it works. And that’s the point. It’s out there and it’s generating momentum.  Don’t waste anymore time, money or effort waiting for everything to be “just right.” Be deliberate about making the moves that will most effectively produce positive results right now.

Connecting with Family: Tools and Tips from the Workshop

A colleague told me he felt bad for me that I would be spending the holiday with my family.  I felt bad for him that he felt that way.  I love spending time with my family; we have a great time together. This apparently was not the case for him. Unfortunately, there are many people who find family time a chore, a pain, a burden or a disaster waiting to happen. I’ve been working on several projects lately to educate families and couples on how to break down their walls, open up new doors, and create a new dynamic that brings them closer.  Getting to know each other–I mean really know each other– is an important step in that process. How well do you really know the people closest to you? How well have you let them get to know you? And if you’ve gone for years without ever really talking or connecting with your family the way you want to, how do you begin to change that now?  With the right tools and techniques, it’s easier and less daunting than you might think. I have a few of these to share with you both online and in person: [Read more]

Introducing: Healing Man Healing Woman

For most of us, even before we come out of the womb, the opportunities and possibilities for our lives—and more importantly our selfhood—are limited based on which sex we belong to. As boys, girls, men, and women we’re expected and encouraged by society, our culture, and even our families to fulfill specific roles, behave in particular ways, accept certain types of treatment, and fit certain molds whether we like it or not and whether it’s healthy or not. To do or think otherwise is considered taboo. Healing Man Healing Woman (HMHW) is an innovative and holistic self-development card game that’s helping men, women and youth to break the ice, break down walls, and break free from an unhealthy sense of self. Created by life transformation expert, Antonia Martinez, PhD, HMHW organically sparks transformational conversation, interactive self-discovery, and mutual self-realization that empowers players to evolve and build healthy lives and relationships from the inside out.

The Hidden Purpose of Intention

I was uncertain what I was going to include in an edition of my newsletter. I flirted with a few ideas. Maybe I’d include something from my journal. Or perhaps I’d share a dreaming technique that I often use. I just wasn’t sure. “Well, what is your intention?” the Voice inside me asked. And then it hit me what I wanted to write.

The Voice’s question reminded me of a powerful teaching by Jerhoam, one of my teachers. Intention, he said, was a tool for the unclear mind. A clear mind knows. Sure enough, wasn’t that the situation I found myself in with the newsletter–not knowing what direction to move in or what decision to make? The primary purpose of intention is to create clarity in the mind. [Read more]
