To the Point


Hey Reader,

I don't know how often this happens but it happens often enough for me to talk about it. Every once and a while I have an existential crisis with respect to doing this work. I place a high expectation on myself because despite certain limitations I know I have the capacity and ability to excel. When I feel like i'm not excelling it makes me want to give up. I rather not try or stop trying than to only be able to achieve mediocrity. I know things take time and I should practice patience but frankly that's not my love language. If I'm waiting give me check points. Have you ever felt strongly about something but had to languish in relative obscurity? Respond directly to this email if you care to share your thoughts.

Hard skills is self determination and self determination is hard skills. When you can uncover and blossom what you're good at then you begin to experience self-actualization;

In my personal assessment of myself when I'm being charismatic typically I think it’s mainly for professional purposes.

Encouragement For Your Week

This week I want to encourage you to ask for what you feel you want/need. Life is conspiring on your behalf. God or the universe wants good things to happen for you. Unfortunately, however, we may not get exactly what we want, but we can get the resources we need to get what we want. All aspects of life is some type of partnership. Get in alignment with your wants and desires and make them known. Speak them aloud. Declare your concerns. In doing so you can achieve clarity but also you can clear potential blockages keeping you from your compelling future. You have not because you ask not or because you are disingenuous in your asking. Search yourself thoroughly and ask for what's genuine to your heart and mind.

Feel free to contact us by responding to this email or by filling out this form.

Have a fantastic week!

All the best,

Ken

Hello Reader, Sometimes you leave things and sometimes things leave you. Mental, emotional, and material growth are mutually exclusive. Labor Day In recognition of Labor Day there will be no new content published the week of August 31-September 6, 2025. A reminder will be sent next week. Ken's Corner Among the things on my mind today and this week, so far, is the idea of if you love something you should let it go. It's a nice sounding philosophy but what are it's implications and is something...

Hello Reader, Over the weekend I learned about a concept that disturbed me immensely. That concept is "memetic desires." Memetic desires refers to a person's inability to individuate. A memetic desire is when a person takes on the desires of someone else. For example, let's say you have a goal or desire to travel and you tell someone or someone in your sphere of influence catches wind of your desire. all of a sudden that person espouses how they want to travel and go different places, even...

Hello Reader, I apologize for no roundup for last week and for this newsletter coming later in the day. Last week was a bit of a drag and by the time the weekend came not only was I still working on some content, I also had a meeting that I had to go to; which by the time it ended suggested to me that the content I was producing wouldn't have been done justice if I just rushed through it. I will highlight some content in the spotlight section, but first I want to unpack the significance of...
