Warning: I use all my articles as a vehicle for me to muddle through issues, to gain clarity, to distill the truth, to separate illusion from reality.
This article goes through a meandering path… and unless you follow the path closely, you won’t get to the result and get the same clarity, so you will be wasting your time.
If you don’t have the time to read this article attentively, don’t read it, it will make no sense in the end.
The juice is in the detail, the juice is in the journey, the scenery one can see… You’ve been warned.
Humanity lives in quiet desperation. Everyone. Even the rich and famous. They are aimless, purposel
Fear talks… Depending on what it says, you’ll run, you’ll hide, or you’ll continue charging forward
I now have a coach to report to on what I accomplish in the project I started a week ago.
Just like you, my first report was something like this: “I know I did little, but there was this fear…”
“What does fear have to do with anything?” he asked… and I was dumbfounded. I know the guy, we’ve been friends now for 3-4 years, and he is always stopped by fear… Who is he kidding?!
I didn’t spend our time together to explain things, after all his role, this time around, is to coach me, not the other way around.
But, in this article, I’ll say everything about fear, and how it works. I will also talk about how to gain the upper hand, at least some of the time, in the
Simple answer: You lack skills and capacities… You can boil water, make coffee in the coffee maker, drive a car, open your smartphone… You are not quite hopeless… or are you? Not quite hapless either… or are you? [note]Here is an article, 10% truth value… others talk about the topic… read it and feel how confusing it is…
How come they succeeded and I don’t. How come they got the promotion and I didn’t. How come they have a nice partner and I don’t. How come they are thin and I am fat? How come they get the results and I don’t? How come, how come, how come… What am I, chopped liver?
And more often than not, the answer is: “Because they do what you don’t.”
When you are the one who is slighted, how didn’t, can’t, don’t have, or didn’t get X, it is near impossible to see what it is the THEY do that you don’t.
One of my areas of didn’t, can’t, don’t have, or didn’t get X has something to do with being liked.
Not many people like me. It used to be better, and it used to be worse.
In Hungary I had friends, I had fans. I only had problems with authority: I never got a raise, never was promoted, and I was widely unpopular by the top brass of the companies I worked for.
Then between ages 34 and 64, 30 years, OMG! I was mostly alone. I only talked to people when I was giving them something, mo
6 Insane Things Science Can Predict About You at Infancy
We like to think that, for the most part, who we are is based on life experience, hard knocks and good old-fashioned attitude. Sure, genetics plays a part, but ultimately it’s your own choices that matter — you’re not “destined” to be anything.
But science, as it usually does, has some surprising and kind of scary things to tell us. Apparently, no matter what kind of life you lead, scientists can still figure out who you’ll be at 30 based on who you were as a toddler. Studies show …
#6. If a 4-Year-Old Is Patient, He or She Will Be a Successful Adult
Most of what we do, most of what we are taught, most of what we understand sets us up for failure.
I have a lot of success skills, and yet, I am not as successful as I’d like to be.
This past week I started a project of causing, consciously causing success in a particular endeavor, creating and marketing a new product largely unrelated to what I do on this blog.
I have been coming up against a lot of walls, fear, anxiety, overwhelm, wanting to stay comfortable.
And although I am doing this all with my eyes open, as an impartial observer, and I am starting to see methods to break through the blockages, I am sure I have more to learn.
As always, the moment I had the thought that there is m
I like failed experiments. Why? Because successful experiments are more likely the result of confirmation bias… So even in experiments I opt for the Anna Karenina Principle: remove all that isn’t a certain yes, everything that is accidental in the results or make the result a bad result, something I don’t want.
So I am preparing for an experiment today, the “don’t eat the marshmallow” experiment.
I have been, thus far, absolutely unreliable and untrustworthy to not eat something I should not eat, like candy or chocolate, or fruit.
So I ordered a 10 oz bag of dark chocolate covered mint patties, sugar free. Last time I did this I ate all of it within 16 hours…
This are the rarest human qualities, rarest capacities of all. They require high level of consciousness… that is why.
Of course no one is high consciousness or low consciousness… we are all on a scale of consciousness.
For example I discovered, doing the experiment with the candy yesterday, through glimpses of my behavior and thoughts, that side by side the high vibration, high consciousness person there are remnants of callousness (showing or having an insensitive and cruel disregard for others, cold hearted, unfeeling) that I wasn’t aware of. It includes me, it includes my health, it includes everyone.
I woke up at 3 am from a nightmare… a tiger was licking my dog (I don’t actually have a dog, I have never had o
People talk about positive and negative, positivity, negativity, and other Law of Attraction b.s. but they are completely misdirected, mistaken, shallow and involved in magical thinking.
The only real divisions of “content” when it comes to your mind, your actions, your emotions, your intentions, your context and principles: is it from the Tree of Life or from the Tree of Knowledge, or said in an even simpler way: is it reality or is it unreality, is it a fact or is it a fiction.
As I am working with people, students, clients, they can’t tell the difference. Why? Because they were never told how to recognize fact from fiction, because we have them collapsed. In another
