My name is Chairman NOW. Yes, I’m a cat. But I’m no different from you. Unless you’re not a cat. Then I’m way different. Regardless, one thing you and I have in common is our love of NOW. Because that’s when we all want stuff. If not sooner. Or as I like to say, “Me. Now.” Although I use the cat’raction “Me’ow.”
If I’m a cat how can I write? I have “people.” Or as I like to call them “co-dependents.” Am I self-help guru? No. I’m a self-help cat. I help myself. And if any of my perspectives or experiences help you live a better life – and helps me get better treats – that’s win-win. Or from my perspective, win.
I grew up on the streets. Literally. Which streets? Doesn’t matter. From my perspective, they’re all kind of the same. Dirty. Smelly. Close to my face. Very street-like. It was on the streets that I found I liked chasing rats. A lot. Okay, too much. In fact, I soon found myself chasing anything that moved. Sometimes even if it didn’t. What sane animal chases its own tail?
It was only after friends did an intervention that I learned to let go of the past, stop dreaming about the future, live fully in the moment, and feel the happiness, joy, and freedom of CelebratingNOW – the two words pushed together because who has time? It was then that I truly became Chairman NOW.
And since we both love NOW, even if you’re not a cat, I’m just like you. Without the hang-ups. Like body shame. I’ll throw up right in front of you. Or even on you. And walk away like nothing happened. No shame. You know why? That throw up thing? That was then. If you want to live the past, go ahead. That just makes you a “Then Master.” Me, I'm all about CelebratingNOW. Even when it isn't. And that’s why I’m Chairman NOW. And a lot happier. Starting right after I throw up. NOW.
In short, I’m a spiritual advisor. With issues.
