A successful person is...

A man or women who is autonomous and resourceful and pay’s attention to a particular goal or aim to the point of causing it to exist. This person is not only brave and intuitive, but worth their weight in gold. They are a successful person! The more you do this cycle, the better life gets!

My Goal For Reducing Suffuring

My Goal for 2011 is nothing short of
Pure Positive Energy Renewal.

My goal is to reduce the amount of pain and suffering any one person goes through. By doing so, I believe we gain another well-off-person thrust into our human race.

Each well-to-do person will share his or her Pure Positive Energy with another, for whom they care about.

This wave of Pure Positive Energy will have a long lasting effect on people, animals, places and earth.

So let’s get this party started!

Chid Abuse Stops Here

Jimmy and I were sitting in the living room simmering in a deep blue mood, as the turntable spun the album Point of Know Return, playing the song, Dust in The Wind, by Kansas.
Jimmy was in a cloud of sadness, which blanketed his whole aura. After enduring years of physical abuse, hosted by none other than his parents!

Listening to him I stared off into the sunlight filtering through the large picture window. As Jimmy spoke, trying to make sense of his self worth, my mind flashed back over the 6 years since first he showed me the black and blue welts on his back and legs.
From just below the shoulder blades to above the back of his knees the riddled of abuse was painted. His clothes hid the ugly truth from teachers, friends and strangers who saw his face.

What they didn’t see was a tortured boy, that school officials believed was simply not the A student potential and needed anger management education.

He looked down toward the green 1970s’ carpet that almost hypnotized his gaze as the song Dust in The Wind played, and he said “I feel like dust in the wind, what-do-I-matter any how”?

As Jimmy’s raspy voice trailed off, his hurt and shame spilled all over me. I learned this day, the people you trust to protect you, could also be the ones who inflict pain in this grotesque and beguiled manner. This cruel behavior made my teeth grind and my mind a worry.

Years earlier, Jimmy and I were in forth grade, he wanted to show me something, so he asked me to follow him to the bathroom.

In the cold and sterile stillness of the bathroom he faced me.  Putting his index finger to his lips signaling me to keep a secret. He turned his back and unbuttoned his shit, allowing gravity to pull it off his shoulders and to his side. His soft skin was covered with a dozen bruises in a variety of shapes and sizes.

He unbuttoned his trousers, they fell to his ankles and the art of damage was continued to the top of his legs. I could tell where every belt and buckle landed.

Through his tears, he told me how he tried to doge each hit. Every time the abuser swung back in order to gain a powerful blow, Jimmy would kept moving around the bedroom hoping it would stop. First was his mom, next when his dad came home, the abuse had it’s second round.
The vision of my friends anguish left me feeling helpless. Feeling helpless, as a child is a burden needlessly bestowed.

Back in the safety of my own bedroom, in my imagination, I began to rehearse how I’d save him from this crazy madness. I’d see my self-walking up to the jimmy front door, where I knock with a sure degree of authority. His parents answer the door. They look down at me with question in their faces, “can we help you son”?

I stand confident and ready to blow their minds. Telling them “I knew your dirty little secret”, I continue, “ I’m prepared to tell everyone who will listen how you beat your son”. “My god he hasn’t even done anything so terrible to deserve such treatment”.

I’d ask them, “does it hurt when you lose their minds using your belts on your own son" It must hurt you, doesn’t it”? In my head I’m certain this conversation will end the madness!

In my dreamy imagination his parents are shocked by my visit and they decide to handle their frustrations in a better way. Without further ado, everything in our little perfect world, in our little perfect neighborhood is healed. They’d smile, thanking me for helping them to become more gentle and smart. As my dream ends, I have reached them, now compassion is leading this family into a whole new set of circumstances. I did it! Everything’s all right!

However, that’s not what happened.

It’ continued. Later Jimmy drops out of high school, experienced two decades of drug and alcohol abuse, hurtful-relationships. He broke out of his self-destructive demise around 40 year’s of age. He’s been clean sober and successful.

40 years have come and gone since the first day in our elementary school bathroom. It’s noon on Thanksgiving Day 2010, my phone rings, its Jimmy the man, the father. We are both now just shy of 50. On the line he’s thanking me for one of my Think Fabulous tee shirt’s I’d given him a few weeks back, at a dinner party we attended. I felt if any one deserved a Think Fabulous tees-shirt, he did!

I remind him of the day Dust in The Wind.

As he say’s it, I want to reach through time and space to tell those two boy’s who were scared and alone… It gets better.

On this Thanksgiving 2010 I’m proud of my friend who is a kind and gentle father of three children. Here is a man who didn’t allow what happen to him to carry-over to his family!

40 some odd years ago this meaningful situation gave me something as well. It gave me the beginning desire to focus my time and energy on working to find the best ways to maintain, build and develop happy and healthy lifestyles. Determined to search out the best and strive to share what I find with anyone who’s sincerely interested.

No child should live under such terrible stress ever. No matter how freaked out a parent become NEVER.

Make Home A Better Place & Unplug!

Here at home I was inspired to double check if I had any electronic stuff needlessly plugged-in. You may ask, "why bother"?

The electronic equipment plugged-into every room of our home[s] emits waves of energy in subtle ways. These dozen of electronic waves whirling around us are invisible, so we tend not to understand the affecting they have on us in possibly negative degrees. These waves have an impact on our mind and bodies. One way to refine our homes is to take check every once in a while to insure we are living in the most fabulous environment we can manage to maintain.

I will admit to you, these quirky urges hit me when I first wake up from a fabulous night sleep. I think these brilliant ideas come from some far off place where little angles want me to have a better life and impregnate me with thoughts while sleeping. This way when I wake up, they get a kick out watching me run around and do just as they expect.

Look around quickly I noticed how I'd become use to my new head phones connected to my desktop computer, where my calls come in on my $20.00 a year magicJack land line
As busy Lifestyle Coach, 90% of my work is on the phone, so use of headphones has become the way I take all calls. While home my cellphone is not in use, except to take a call and ask the caller to redial me at home. Cellphones are a microwave product, reducing microwaves while home makes sense.

So I was able to unplug two phones. One on my desk and one in the bathroom. This had a three step of improvement. #1. improve my home environment by reduce the electronic waves, #2.lower my cost in electricity, #3 reduced the energy they need pull from our planet. BAM all is better.

What is Temperance?

What has my attention today is the word Temperance and the crazy connection this has to the 14th Major Arcana tarot card, which is also Temperance. I've been reading the Major Arcana for over 27 years and feel like I just set my eyes on this card for the first time.

How this got started today was reading page #124 of the book Good Without God, by Greg Epstein. He shines some light on Seligman and Peterson who did extensive research on human virtues. Seligman and Peterson read everything they could get their hands on and came to 6 broad virtues or clusters of virtues, that came up again and again in may types of lists from many different sources, which are: wisdom, courage, humanity, justice, temperance and transcendence.

Upon reading these 6 I got on the computer to look up the word and was shocked to see it specifically related to consumption of alcohol or the abstinence to alcohol. Over and over the word Temperance was used even as far back as to it's root to this matter.

But as I bounced around to other sites and delved deeper into the meaning I found a charming, mystical meanings to Temperance were all also related to this word/card that focused on a much broader level of a persons everyday life style. To say the least I'm fascinated and will be talking about it all day.

So now you know what's on my mind for the 2010 festive gay pride weekend here in Long Beach, California

Good Without God

Review on the book God Without God
by Greg M. Epstein.


Religion should provide and create equanimity for people. However religion creates a complex condition where the rigid demands cause people to stifle or doubt the development of their sensual and intellectual esteem. Humanist look to be grounded and focused in way's that make so much sense, and where there is plenty of room for personal growth laced with significant moral and ethical fundamentals.
