Are you a nerd? ((One description I found on the internet is this: a NERD is an individual of vast intelligence and curiosity coupled with a natural knack for academics and discovery. You not only appreciate technology, biology, and all the other ‘ology’s – you know what they mean and how they work, too! While Geeks are busy flooding comic-cons and using the internet while pretending to know how it works, you are busy coding the damn internet and earning your Masters or Doctorate (if you don’t already have it/both). Of course t
We all want change. The circumstances to change, others to change… We want people to change to what we deem the correct or good way to be.
We want reality to be different.
We put our attention to what’s wrong, in our view, what is missing, in our view.
In essence, we want the world to conform to our norms.
I am describing, to a more or less degree, humanity… though a segment of the population is very loud about it, very verbal about it: activists and campaigners.
This article will make you angry, or scared… And neither being angry, nor being scared is a good sign… they show that you have only a few human capacities active… and I probably can’t help you. Your best choice is to leave… Unsubscribe if you are a subscriber.
OK, here is the article:
There are no aliens.
There are no Aliens. But there are alien-like bugs.
When you search on google for alien bugs, you see bugs like you are used to, legs, eyes, pincers, and then something added… The imagination of graphic artists, movie makers, com
The less capacities you have now, the less likely that new ones are willing to open up.
Especially if the new capacities would alter your being and behavior dramatically.
If you are a woman, you probably have fewer capacities than men, because in most cultures women are an appendage to a man… even the Bible relegate a woman to companion status… not a full person.
According to Kabbalah women are the vessel, and men are the channel for the Light.
The vessel is all about receiving, and the channel is all about giving.
Whether it is an observation of Kabbalah, or it is programmed, I don’t know, but it su
Just think how hard it is to let go and pee, when people are, maybe, watching. Falling asleep in a new environment.
But… when you are controlling, your are shrinking. When you let go of control: you are expanding.
There are so many things to control: with your control of the few things you know, your breathing, your thoughts… you take yourself out of life, take yourself to a place, where life dies with your control.
In you, and around you.
There is an exercise they make you do in leadership classes. Two people face each othe
The Islamic State is no mere collection of psychopaths. It is a religious group with carefully considered beliefs, among them that it is a key agent of the coming apocalypse. Here’s what that means for its strategy—and for how to stop it.
What is the Islamic State?
Where did it come from, and what are its intentions? The simplicity of these questions can be deceiving, and few Western leaders seem to know the answers. In December, The New York Times published confidential comme
Sometimes people get an idea of activating a capacity that is so alien to their culture, it takes a good 5-10 minutes for the history channel, the ancestors backwards, to build.
It is so unfamiliar that ego doesn’t even know to protest. It is like a way of being that is totally unfamiliar… you can’t see other than special people, like kung fu fighters, or shaolin monks to demonstrate.
Flexibility is the capacity to be able to keep your balance even though the world is pushing you hither and tether…
I had an interesting experience, very much in line with the Humility process I teach:
A client of mine wrote to me today recommending I check out a weight loss doctor. I did.
I went through an online self-evaluation which took me to a page where I could order my personalized regimen to lose the weight I carry on my belly…
I kept on bringing an open mind, curiosity… and finally ended up with what I could have started: I know nothing about weight loss… and I am not qualified to help people with their weight. Hm…
This may just be a legend… Yet, legends can teach…
Marco Polo was an Italian man who arrived into the Great Khan’s court. The Great Khan asked him and his two companions about the desert they had to cross to get to his court.
The two older men had little to say. Marco Polo, on the other hand, had a lot to say.
The two older men were banished, Marco Polo was given the role of advisor.
Why?
Because Marco Polo didn’t live his live with his consciousness buried in his mind.
WTF, right? What does that mean?
Mind and consciousness are not the same, don’t even live in the same
