Thank you for stopping by!  My name is Jeffrey Michael Passetti.  There have been quite a number of unexpected forks and bends in the road of life that have offered me many varied and unique experiences. These events have taught me invaluable lessons that I have decided to share with others.

The Guide to Going Nowhere is an exercise first in the exploration of self and secondly in the discovery of "new things" that were previously hidden from view.  One must first travel somewhere to discover something new, even if the somewhere is just outside your door. However, we must possess the ability to go nowhere to interpret and understand what we have discovered. In order to bring this project to completion, I am in need of financial assistance from those who would wish to help disseminate my words to those who may benefit from them.  Below is an abstract of my work. Hope you enjoy! THANKS!

My friends in high school nicknamed me "the wanderer."  I could never stay put in one place for too long, before I found myself abandoning one adventure to move on to the next. I suppose it was no surprise to my friends when I chose the last sentence of Robert Frost's most famous poem, The Road Not Taken, as my senior quote for our high school year book. 

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one less traveled by and that has made all the difference.

At the time I had chosen the quote, I hadn’t a clue of how many less traveled paths I would end up taking. From an exorcist's assistant, to a US Army Officer, to finding myself homeless and back-packing the length of the Pacific Coast Highway with my childhood mate. These happenings are just a glimpse into my own strange and remarkable journey so far. I have wandered less travelled paths, sometimes by choice and other times out of necessity. However, each stride and misstep along the way has brought me to the present moment. The journey is a collective string of moments and each moment carries with it a powerful message, if you are open to its discovery.

Although many paths inevitably intersect, each journey is unique to the traveler.  The following words are not intended to provide the reader with any specific guidance on which path to choose. Instead, in a world drown out by white noise, their purpose is to offer the reader assistance in how to uncover and reclaim their own authentic-self.  When we are able to locate and comprehend our distinctive authentic-self, it activates an internal force that operates as would a directional compass.  This powerful force provides clarity of thought and vision, so the individual has the confidence to choose the path best suited to their needs.   Are you Prepared to Go Nowhere?  …
