This morning, I was thinking about the two bald eagles I saw on Friday, and I can’t help but believe that most people driving along 116th St. in Fishers did not see the two massive birds hanging out and flying around. I could have missed seeing them had I been distracted by my phone, other thoughts, or even changing songs on the radio. There is no shortage of distractions today, which might keep you from receiving important messages from the Universe—you might be missing your bald eagles because you aren’t paying attention. Not only might distractions keep you from receiving messages, but they can also be getting in the way of you getting connected with your Self; spending time on social media, getting pulled into media headlines, or participating in gossip all keep you from spending time with your Self—time which will help you get closer to your authentic life. You don’t need to give those distractions up in totality, but reducing the distracted time will give you the time and space to connect to the things that matter most as you pursue your authentic life. The more you experience moments like I did Friday, the more you’ll want to make sure you reduce the distractions in your life and become more in tune with the Universe. JC |

But the truth is our eyes don’t see anything, they just collect information and feed it to our brain—so it is our brain that actually sees. I don’t know how much our mind shapes the physical world we see—I don’t think we can make a tree appear that isn’t already there. But, I do know the world we see through...
I was revisiting the Watch The Throne album by Jay-Z and Kanye (such a good album—I almost forgot how good it was) and there were a bunch of lines that jumped out to me from the song “New Day”. I often think about how I make sure I help the boys grow into the men they were created to be and help them learn important lessons to make their Pursuits of their Authentic Lives smoother—assuming they aren’t supposed to learn their life lessons through great struggles (this is something I struggle...
“Inner space is the real frontier.” - Gloria Steinem I thought this was a great quote to remind us that even with all of the excitement of the recent shuttle launch to circle the moon, space might be the final frontier, but inner space is the real frontier to explore. And you don’t need to be a billionaire to explore it. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
