Beware the Vampire
Vampires are everywhere! They could be at your work; they could be in your home, at the grocery store even on the Television.
No I am not talking about the kind with fangs that turn into bats. I am talking about energy vampires. They are everywhere and they will suck you dry if you let them.
Energy, spirit, chi, ki, or prana exist in some form in every culture. It is the life force that binds all living things. People that live in the now tend to have more energy. These are the adventurers, the entrepreneurs, the imagineers that create wonderful things. The ones those are not afraid to do things differently.
The problem is energy travels in a downward gradient. In other words energy travels from highest concentration to lowest concentration. The people with low self esteem, with poor mental attitudes, and the belief that they can never do it have a very low level of energy.
People with low amounts of energy often gravitate to those with more energy. They seek to drain out some of that energy so that everyone is on the same page. It is not even always on purpose. They will use their evil draining power on you if you let them. ‘You are not good enough. The grass isn’t always greener you will never get that idea off the ground’ and other such nonsense will spill out of their mouths.
Don’t let the Vampires get you! Keep your dreams alive by feeding them every day.
Mile Stones
Last week I hit one of those mile stones in life.
I am now at the point in my life that most people refer to as middle age.
Strangely enough I felt no urge to go out and buy a Corvette or other phallic shaped car. Not that they are not nice cars. They just trigger a certain stereotype in my mind.
What it did do however is cause me to take inventory of yourself. What do you want to do now? I thought of all the cool things I have done up to this point. I thought of all that I have accomplished. I thought of the many failures I have experienced and the mistakes I have made, and hey I am still here. Most of the things that went wrong weren’t nearly as bad as I imagined them to be. In fact in hind sight many of the things that looked the worst turned out to be some of the greatest opportunities or at least necessary learning tools to get you to the next level.
Well I for one plan on kicking my adventure level up a notch starting with my trip to Australia this December. So be prepared for some wild stuff on this site.
Remember life doesn’t really get good until you hit (Fill in the blank)
Enjoy today and may your own life be filled with….
