Rob’s Blog

Geez, I must be a prolific writer or something. Still, I submitted a story, so we’ll see what that has to do with anything in a few weeks, (like 12) and I have made some progress in work writing. Hooray! Someone at work asked me to do some other writing, too, so things are looking up for me.

See, this I-M works. I didn’t believe it before but I do now. Just make sure you get your intention focused and then do the things that come up to do, and blammo! Or, more like gradually, things will go your way.

I guess that taking a few weeks between posts is about the best I can hope for. I am a busy guy, after all. So, recently I got another writing assignment, and it has led to more and more. Universe, lay it on me!

What else? Synchronicities keep happening, like clockwork. I-M isn’t necessarily the only model, but it freakin’ works, man. Still, I would like others to comment, but no one will ever see this blog : ) Dig this, it’s like writing on the bathroom wall in the womens’ room at an all boys school. Someone may stumble upon it, but it ain’t likely.

It’s funny how those synchronicities keep coming once you add something to your list of intentions. Now that I have made a decision, the universe is aligning itself to make it happen.

I snagged a short but important writing assignment, so I get to practice a letter of sorts. It’s volunteer only, so there is less pressure than if it were paid, but I’m sure that paid gigs are just around the corner, and that I’ll be able to make a living writing in the near future.

I am a lucky guy, and I sometimes forget that fact. Now, I just need to have business cards made, and then I can start handing them out.

So, it’s the new year and it’s already been a few weeks since I blogged. So much for consistency.

My resolution for this year is to make significant progress in my career as a writer. After all, I’m a writer, and I have always been a writer. I have had other jobs; right now I work on a computer help desk. It’s a small company, so I get to learn all kinds of things, which is nice. But I am not a technologist, or a computer geek, or an IT nerd. I am a writer.

Now that I have that out in the open, I will try to write a little bit every day, although it might not be here. The Moleskine book that I carry around is about half full, mostly with rantings about Intention-Manifestation.

I have been reading some basic books on Buddhism, and I like the idea that you can somehow get to the core of how the world works by sitting back and observing it from a place of quiet. Ahh, the rub, of course, is that the place of quiet is hard to get to. Still, the effort appears worthwhile, and I am in a fantastic mood. The mood might be the result of a small amount of mindfulness, or it could just be that the holidays are over.
