With Every Choice You Make For You...

Living A Potent Life requires choosing, choosing for You...

With every choice you make for you, regardless of any one else’s pov about it, you are taking another step out of this reality. With every choice you make for you, it starts to break down the control of and over you by all external sources.


This is being Potent.


If we look at “reality” as something that is created when 2 or more people align or agree on a pov, or resist your pov in order to make you wrong. Reality requires judgments in order to exist. Right, wrong, good, bad….etc. What would things look like without the judgments in place? Good question. What would your life look like without judgment? Are you willing to have that? Even if you have no idea what that would look like?


This is being Potent.


What’s the difference between being in this reality and the creation of your life? This includes truly choosing things for you. Simple as that. Choosing what ever it is with you in the equation. Not giving up parts of you in your choices. Not compromising. Inherent in the term “compromise” is that it doesn’t work for you. What is the value of choosing things that don’t work for us? Why do we do this continually?


What could be the value of being outside this reality? Maybe this is where we can find ourselves. When we stop choosing for everything and everyone else and begin choosing for us, more and more of who we are starts showing up. By choosing for others, we loose our identity, as we have done this almost forever, how do we know who we are?


Maybe by being outside of this reality we can create our own life, based on choices we make for us. What would you like to generate for your life that hasn’t shown up yet? Without bullshitting yourself, what would you choose? For you.


Musings from the edge of sanity...

Curiosity Costs to Much

Arrogant was initially defined as “asking a question”, isn’t it interesting that today the word is commonly used to express the opposite of one seeking through a question, of one who “knows it all”?

From the time we were in school we have been told that we must have the right answer…and we have to show how we got it. And if you did not show your work you were accused of cheating. So where in that equation is there room for those of us who truly have abilities where we just know shit? There is none. We were just made wrong – which we made real – and started to invalidate ourselves. As invalidation and diminishment continued, pretty soon we as the infinite beings we are disappeared.

How often are high level functions called disabilities by those who do not understand what is actually taking place? ADD, ADHD, OCD, among many others are labels to separate and categorize based on the points of view of those doing the labeling. Not looking at the picture as a whole realizing that this person just knows, but comparing to what is “normal” and acceptable in this society and culture.

By these limiting points of view alone, by the judgments required to create them, and by the people who buy these as real and valid – do we not allow something different and more expansive to show up for all of us.


Curiosity is all about living in and as the question. Knowing that the Universe has access to more than we do when we come from a thinking place. Curiosity is being the proverbial cat that in truth never gets killed by his questions but dies by not asking them. For those of us to whom curiosity is our natural state of existence, to make ourselves wrong for that by buying others judgments of us, and trying to change US to fit in with THEM does indeed induce the death of our true nature. Death by shoehorn.

What is it going to take for the existing paradigms to allow for those that are different to contribute without requiring them to be exiled, outcast, scorned, or killed?

What else is possible here? What do you know?
