Empathy… and empaths. Is the empathy we talk about in the world as a good thing and what empaths have the same? Empathy as psychologists have it, is not the capacity to feel another’s feeling as your own.

Can you become astute? And if you can… how?
One of the invaluable benefits I gained from the 67 steps is the idea to consider getting tired in the noonish hours a signal that it is time to lie down and read.
This midday break disrupts the societal pull to do the useful, the purposeful, the goal-oriented stuff… that makes us dull, dutiful, and lopsided… boring.

Feeling deeply and effortless abundance… what is the connection?
It’s a normal day to me: I went deep inside the energy body of a person in Singapore and got in touch with her life, her urges, how she thinks, and what pains she has. I pulled her energetic attachments. … Continue reading
If you are human, you are hungry for stories — the power of reading
It seems that to be human is to crave stories. So, if you are reading this, you crave stories.
The question is: where are you get your stories from?
Most of you get it in gossip.
Many get it in soap operas as well… not much better than gossip.
I recommend that you read. Quality novels or short stories… It enriches, while gossips or gossipy TV shows don’t.
Neither do romance novels…
You need to satisfy the hunger, but just like with food, some foods nurture, others fill you up with crap.
So choose wisely.

Many of my coaching students are at a crucial point in their lives where unless something happens, they probably won’t move forward. Fear, unclarity, self-centeredness, belligerence… The main attitude is different. Not one person resembles another in what seems to block their path. It’s the coach’s brilliance, creativity, insight that will either make a difference or not. What is clear is this: unless someone or something helps them through… they will stay this side of the great barrier. Great responsibility, but I am up for it. What is the capacity I need to be OK with this responsibility? It is self-trust.

After all, the rule of thumb is: go with your strengths… and if you have strengths, you know you have them, because you’ve been using them. Here is how I did it. The time was 1988 and I was an architect. And that opportunity closed for me… I did a skill inventory, and found that all my skills at that point were putting ink on paper… writing, drawing, designing… and communicating. With people. Graphics, design, text, communicating… I decided that the best match was publisher, although I had no idea what I would want to say… Magazine publishing. I was unemployed, so I spent my time training myself… designing ads, writing ads, and I even apprenticed with a small printer so I had some idea what printing entails. Then I sent out two resumes to small local pennysavers… that I saw all the time in the supermarket. One answered, and said that the only job available is advertising sales. That I would get someone to train me… I said OK… The woman who came to train me (I didn’t have any transportation) gave me a script and went out with me to a few stores to sell advertising. Next day she went and covered all the stores I could have been able to walk in and sold everyone she could… Dog eat dog is the advertising world. So I called the other publisher. I told him I sold five ads on my first day… He met me and hired me, even gave me a beat up car to use, so that I can get around and do the job. I was grateful. I worked 80 hours or more a week. I actively participated on Friday’s meetings when every salesperson brought in what they sold. After two weeks I took over that part of the job, laying out the magazine for Saturday printing. I even delivered all the magazines to the stores in my sales area. I busted my ass. I built enough relationships with customers, typesetters, printers that after 14 months, when the owner felt threatened and kicked me out, I could start, overnight, my own magazine. After that fateful meeting, when I got kicked out, I called the typesetter, called the printer, and asked for credit for one issue. I got it. I stayed up all night, and next day at 4 pm my own magazine was in the street. It was the beginning of a wonderful eleven year run. 003_what-does-it-take-to change-into-a-new-career talking points: how do you know what skills to build? reading books
