Week 23 – Hop, Skip… Jump?

Week 23 – Hop, Skip… Jump?

I haven’t written in a while. I THOUGHT that I just missed a week, but it is now March 27th and I attended our graduation ceremony yesterday so technically… I’m done — except for this nagging voice that says, “you didn’t do your blog posts.”  So here we are 🙂 I was going to do a wrap up and include everything that remained in it, and decided that wasn’t a good thing on several levels, so you get to suffer…

Week 22/22a – Where DOES the Time Go?

Week 22/22a – Where DOES the Time Go?

Hard to believe we’re at week 25 now (when this actually being written.) I know the site says week 23, but those two weeks when we went “A” instead of actually advancing the week number… well, if you weren’t really paying attention… could be confusing, especially since the last one is week 24. Looks can be deceiving. The last two weeks have been a little weird for me. Week 22 was pretty strong — pretty energized. “Thoughts are spiritual seeds,…

Week 21 – Training my Thoughts

Week 21 – Training my Thoughts

This look… THIS is how I feel sometimes. I took the caption off this one. This look just says it all. I find these things on the web. They don’t appear copyrighted so… I use them. But have you ever “felt” like this? Well, week 21 was not a problem for me.  I identified nicely with the MasterKey reading. You know, there’s a LOT of repetition in the MasterKey readings and you say WHY do they keep saying the same…

Week 20 – Hindsight is 30/20

Week 20 – Hindsight is 30/20

For eye exams, 20/20 means you can see at 20 feet what a normal person can see at 20 feet. 30/20 means that you can see at 30 feet what a normal person would see at 20 feet, so this would indicate that you’ve got pretty good eyesight! Seems I can’t write a blog post dealing with JUST the current week; I always have to revisit earlier weeks — in this case, back to week 16 — you remember; the…

Week 19 (and 18, and 17 and…): Grateful

Week 19 (and 18, and 17 and…): Grateful

I was finishing up dinner tonight… after reading the Master Key lesson for week 19. I was thinking about doing my gratitude cards  for each day — or at least a few days — when a BUNCH of things I’m grateful for started flashing through my head: I’m alive… again! I am healthy I am free of prescription meds My baby boy’s birthday is tomorrow I woke up this morning My kids love me … and the list went on…

Week 18 – The Beat Goes On!

Week 18 – The Beat Goes On!

Greetings! your awesomeness(s)! That is the PLURAL of “your awesomeness”, because I want to make sure I acknowledge every single one of you! As I sit here sipping my freshly brewed coffee and snacking on ginger snaps and crunchy peanut butter, I’d like to say it’s been an awesome week. No particular reason; I’ve had frustrations, technical/equipment problems, unscheduled interruptions, difficulties, work not done, stuff not handled… AND… I didn’t even come CLOSE to winning that Work Week challenge with…

Week 18: O… M…G

Week 18: O… M…G

O M G! Dear MasterMnders: Something very interesting just happened with this week’s lesson, and you may not have noticed, so I’m going to tell you… so you don’t miss it! In 18 weeks of masterminding, we’ve gotten the lesson, done the sit and been told, “contemplate this… visualize this… think about this…”  This lesson is different. This week’s lesson — line 33 — states, “This week… concentrate upon your power to create…” We have just been given an assignment…

Week 17HJ – Enlightening? or Frightening?

Week 17HJ – Enlightening? or Frightening?

Well, perhaps frightening is a bit strong. First of all, the webby last Sunday (01/24) was exquisite — one of the best we’ve had so far, and that’s a big claim, since we’ve had some truly magnificent webbies over the past 17+ weeks. And there’s so much I’d like to say, but in the interest of time… I shall not. [Note: I just dumped a bunch of text, so this post won’t take an hour to read…] This past week…

Week 17 – Catch-Up and Settle

Week 17 – Catch-Up and Settle

I’m gaining on myself.  Some days I feel like this little guy.  From the look on his face you’d think he’d been running along beside the car for a while, right?  Last week I noticed that I’d missed a bunch of comments on my posts. Some back to December. I was not happy. How’d I miss those? I’m the guy who will spend hours on FB answering individual  birthday wishes (last time I had over 300) because if people thought…

Week 16.9 – I Just Thought of Something

Week 16.9 – I Just Thought of Something

Maybe this is dribble, and maybe it’s an epiphany, but in the reprogramming-the-brain-department, I think this is relevant. For the last 15+ years my office has been in my basement, and during the last 6- 1/2 years, probably 70-90% of most days was spent in that space — working on the pc, photographing clients, editting images, doing laundry… all in that space. And in that time, I became acclimated to every sound in the house — and the neighborhood —…
