When you ask that question, How did you get to be the way you are? people say: my family, my religion, my past, what happened to me.

But maybe not. Maybe what makes you, every moment, the way you are is not the past, but the future you are living into.

What future? The future you decided on back when you were little…

Let me explain:

We used to think that if we invented ourselves as something great, we could be great.

In essence, that is what we thought Landmark Education was teaching, and maybe on some level they did.

The formula was ‘Invent a possibility for yourself and your life… so you would say: I am the possibility of being smart (whatever)…’

But what our ego heard is this is how to fix our puny, worthless self, and we either said ‘nah, can’t do it!’ or we got again entangled in the fixing cycle…

Without great love you can’t have hate.

And without great love you can’t have courage.

Most of my clients, and I suppose most people are cold fish. The don’t feel deeply, there is no great love and there is no great hate in them.

Are the people who are ‘pro-life’ lovers of life, and haters of death? No, they have no love in their hearts, therefore the hate they espouse is fake. They just want to be right.

The enemy of love is indifference. And the enemy of hate is indifference.

And what allowed for every single evil to happen in the world is indifference.

You live a sheltered life. Either restricted to a small area of the world physically, or to a small area of the world experientially.

So you, just like your cone of vision would predict, have a very narrow slice of reality (the pizza pie) ever seen, heard of, played in, experienced.

One of my 67 step coaching clients says in her reports, on average 10 times each report ‘Wow! I have never thought of that’. ‘I have never considered that’. ‘Hm, I’ve never heard that before’.

Each time she says that her slice of pizza becomes just a little bit bigger.

The size of that slice, the slice that you know that you know is going to be instrumental to living a life you love,

You are stuck! Sticky points, pivot points, linchpin, believe me, without knowing these you can’t get unstuck.

It is coming full circle now… I have another blog, get unstuck, and it’s been largely abandoned by me, snubbed by my students as a lower grade of my work, older… lol. BTW, on Amazon it is quite popular, it is in kindle format.

And, lo and behold, the whole class is getting to the same point: they need to learn how to get unstuck.

alleluia!

Of course, my approach, in addition to validating what I have written before, is going to be a little bit different.

When I interview people what they consider being stuck, they always talk about the big stuff. Ha-hah! But no one is stuck in the big stuff:

don’t forget that Alex is a money/business guy. so he will almost always focus on the money. But happiness, health, satisfaction, love can be substituted wherever he talks about money

1. You make better decisions and you learn more by assuming that you’re dumber than everyone else.
the reason this was something that took me a long time to learn is that when I was in college it was all about showing how smart you were.

Santa Klaus’s name is Mikulás in Hungary, and of course Mikulas is Saint Nicholas, and his day is December 6. So today it is gift giving day in Hungary, mostly candy and nuts and red apples… as the song goes… in Hungarian.

When people come to me to have their food list muscletested, they rarely think that the food list will ask them to go back a couple of generations to a time when eating was different: you had to buy ice to have an icebox… You gave away half of your venison, or it would rot on you. You stored up goodwill for other times by sharing when it was plenty.

I am old enough to remember those times.

Earning your light, raising your vibration

I don’t know everything. In fact, I know very little. And what I know is somewhat sketchy.

I just finished muscle testing the vibrational numbers of the second phase activator class. I was expecting to see who is doing the work of earning their light and who isn’t by the way their vibration was comparing to the numbers two weeks ago.

What I found didn’t make sense, which is a good thing.

When something makes sense, it means that the knowledge is coming from the Tree of Knowledge. It means that I didn’t access anything beyond what everybody should suspect; and the majority is always wrong. Always.

So, in a sense, I was happy that my findings didn’t make sense.

I watched this Belgian three and a half hours of utter ‘nothing is happening on the screen’ fascinating film.

It was a perfect illustration to many of the things I see, many of thing things I say, many of the things you experience and you don’t understand why.

In the very first Forum I participated in in June of 1985, the Forum Leader was screaming as he came down the side steps of the auditorium. He was screaming: You have your shit together! But that is all you have together!

It was weird.

I didn’t have my shit together… so I didn’t know why he was saying that.
