Embracing the Inspiring!

I make no apologies for choosing the positive in the world around me. I admit to being somewhat of an optimist. At the same time, I don’t want to simply sugar-coat the negatives I do see around me. It is easy and lazy to “give up” on improving social conditions rather than to address them. What each of us chooses to contribute is a highly personal decision, based on our own special talents and the time and energy we can devote to improving life around us. If one of our approaches fails to achieve the desired results, we can learn from our mistakes. One important thing I have learned is that there will always be persons who seem to achieve the impossible in improving our world. I can only applaud their efforts – and be inspired by their example.

Meet Your Host & Webmaster.

I go by my moniker – StevePDX.
Originally from the East Coast, I have been happily retired in the Portland, Oregon area for approximately 10 years (as of 2024).
I devote much of my time to chasing down inspiring YouTube trendsetters – individuals who share their dreams and accomplishments with others, to show their path to leading a rich and balanced lifestyle that often includes a strong component of service to others – including immigrants and the homeless.
I hope that you will find my findings as exciting as I do!

Cutting-Edge Websites!

Let’s Explore AI!

I am interested in the responsible uses of Artificial intelligence. I use it sparingly across the different sections of this website. I find it helpful in discovering approaches and avenues of inquiry that I might otherwise overlook. It never substitutes for carefully-researched and unbiased information – especially that which can only come from that quality that makes us fully human – empathy.

Ready for Adventure!

Open to Adventure!

If there’s one individual who epitomizes for me the spirit of wonder and pushing himself to the limit – It’s Brett Conti. Here’s a consummate New Yorker who embraces the opportunities and challenges of New York City – and yet who overcame his fears and successfully tackled the ascent of one of the highest and most-challenging mountain peaks in the world – Mount Kilimanjaro! Be inspired by checking out his YouTube video!

– Your Dream List –

01

Write Down Your Dreams.

This is not the time to determine the practicality or likelihood of achieving your dreams. Write down whatever floats into your consciousness. The longer the list, the more you will have to work with. A good indicator for most persons that they are not precluding any possibilities is that they can achieve a long list in one sitting. You may want to set aside a time of day when you have the fewest distractions, and are fully rested. Some persons may find that relaxing instrumental music is helpful.

02

Prioritize Your Dreams

Here again, try not to “overthink” your list. You should be able to choose two or three items for the top of your list very quickly. If you get to the point where you find it really difficult to choose, you have probably reached the point where your list is as complete as it can be – at least for the time being.

03

List the Steps Necessary to Achieve Your Dreams.

Keep in mind that many steps to make a dream possible don’t mean that it can’t be at the top of your list. If you really want to achieve a dream, you will find a way to make it happen. That’s the lesson that our YouTube Trendsetters have demonstrated again and again.

Believe in Yourself!

Every Day is a New Day.

Some days, you will be energized and accomplish everything you have set out to do in your Dream List. Other days, you will accomplish little from your Dream List. No matter what kind of day you are having, record how you were feeling – and try to see if there is a pattern to the type of day. You may want to look into an online or a face-to-face counseling service to see if there is something mental or physical that is affecting your day. It could also be a financial or relationship issue that needs to be addressed by a professional. (This is not meant to be medical advice – always check with your health care provider for your particular situation.)

Congratulate Yourself!

This may sound a bit narcissistic, but practiced in moderation, it can be a healthy form of self-validation for at least some of you. Many of the YouTube Trendsetters I have listed find it essential to enumerate their struggles in trying to achieve their Dream Lists – and this also gives them the “permission” to look back and celebrate their accomplishments.

Remember – You are Unique!

It’s quite possible that you do not find this website helpful or inspiring. This may because it does not address your particular needs or personality. If that is the case, I wish you the best of luck in finding a set of close friends, a group, or even a physical setting where you can be yourself and be happy and even flourish. Perhaps it is the timing that is not right for you – that you will revisit this website sometime in the future.
