A Real Character
You know, it's funny, I was talking with Joseph the other day and he made some remark to me about being a real character and that i've always been a real character.
For whatever reason this cliche skipped along the pond of my mind and rippled my reflection of myself.
A real character.
You know, for years i've thought of myself as easy to get along with but a little 'off the beaten path'. Then i took stock of where my attention is lately. Here's what i came up with:
1. Working with private clients to deliver high impact one-on-one or group experiences enabling intentional performance. Intentional Performance is a way of describing what i do which i've stolen directly from Joseph. Lucky for me, he's bright and generous and allows me to continually steal his descriptions.
Intentional Performance begins with the stabilization of a well-formed core awareness. This stable core awareness is somatically based. It is the idiosyncratic configuration of your muscles and senses in the system’s natural ‘best’ state. This stable best-state configuration allows for maximum behavioral flexibility and optimal integration of new information and behaviors. From this state, i help clients unfold the best internal and external strategies congruent with their outcomes.
2. Raising Buddha - a blog exploring what it means to parent. Ironically, because my attention is on well-formed neural and behavioral development, this blog spits in the face of typical parenting styles. (This summation is not based on a statistical study, just personal experience.)
3. Sex With Devon - a video blog exploring healthy attitudes towards sex and sexuality. This vlog is admittedly irreverent simply because i talk openly about sex.
4. Pathbreaker.tv - a video blog about living your bliss by following your passion. Implicitly this means not staying on societal tracks of what you 'should' be doing.
5. Developing an installable Human Operating System. Much as i've deluded myself into believing that everyone needs a human operating system for the past decade or so - i've come realize that no one even knows what the hell i'm talking about.
It was recently explained to me in simple marketing terms like this: If you need to teach someone to know that they need what you're offering - then they don't actually need it.
6. The Global Myth - also something no one experiences as a necessity.
In review i seem to be orthogonal to most people's ways of thinking about things.
C'est la vie.
Coming to terms with this, i've renamed my blog's subtitle: Thoughts of a Cultural Iconoclast.
