Spiritual Wisdom and Advice: Living Your Best Life with the Power of Positive Intentions

Welcome to my Blog: Life of a Lotus Flower

Thank you for visiting this blog on my website. You can also find me on Medium, just click this link here: Life of a Lotus Flower

This blog was created to help others live their best lives through positive intentions. In this blog, I will offer tips on using manifestation techniques, making lifestyle changes to live a happier, more focused life, committing to perspective change, and advice on how to live life in a way that aligns with your values.

You will find a bigger selection of my blogs on Medium, however, I have only just started my blog, so there isn't just a whole lot yet. I will be making more posts as and when I can. I have several different projects going on at the moment, and I will tell you about those in this post.

A few weeks ago, I decided I needed a change in my life. My job was going nowhere fast, and my mental health was deteriorating for various reasons. So, I decided to set some goals for myself. I brainstormed a few ways to make a little side cash; the possibilities were endless. More importantly, I wanted to give my life some meaning by utilising my passions.

Today I reached my first major goal by building a website portfolio for my art and photography. My mom has been at me for ages to do this, and like many moms out there, she is the biggest champion of my work in this field. I am proud to have finally sent her the link to my site so she can see my first accomplishment. I plan to include excerpts from my blog on my website, and (hopefully!) it will extend my reach and gain some followers.

I suppose I could say that starting my blog over on Medium was the first thing I did, and it gives me great joy to express my innermost thoughts and dreams about this crazy life we all live. My life has certainly not been what I would call ‘easy’, but I am grateful every day that I am alive, mostly well and sane, and I choose to make a habit of trying to live my life with positive intentions. My biggest hope for this blog is to help others on their journey and to try my best to impart whatever wisdom and advice I have learned on my 50-year experience as a human being on planet Earth.

My most exciting goal, and my newly discovered passion, is fiction writing. I have started writing a novel, which will turn into a series eventually. As I said in another blog post, it’s not something I ever thought I’d be good at doing, because I tried to write fiction many years ago and it sucked. I am not embarrassed by this admission because, for some writers, writing can be a latent talent that only shows up when they’ve had enough maturity and life experience to write good fiction. Then there are those lucky old souls who were born to write and started at a young age, producing great works in their twenties and thirties. I am not those people, unfortunately, but I am eternally grateful to the universe that I finally figured out that writing is my passion.

I have always been a voracious reader. I read my first Stephen King novel when I was 10 or 11, and I never stopped. Horror is my genre of choice, but I also enjoy paranormal romance, thrillers, and crime. I occasionally read drama and other types of literature, but horror has always been and always will be my first love. I sincerely hope my love of reading shows in the book I am currently writing, and also in the books I will write in the future. (Just a little affirmation of positive intention there, it is great for keeping yourself focused.)

With these goals in mind and keeping me very busy, I endeavour to regularly work on my blog and grow it into something helpful and insightful for others. I reckon my parting words will have to be this: never give up on your dreams, no matter how big or small, and set small attainable goals for yourself to better your chances of seeing those dreams made into reality.

Be happy, be kind, and most of all, believe in yourself.
