Should you become a client? Would I even accept you as a client?
For decades one of my sore spots was that people refused to serve me, even though I paid them.
I remember saying to myself: my money is not good enough for you? and wept.
I had no idea how I “accomplished” that… in 20/20 hindsight it is still a little spotty.
What wasn’t clear to me, never even occurred to me, how my attitude effected the service provider. My “To what degree you think of yourself:” starting point measure was, at the time, 70%. From my behavior I would have guessed it was higher.
Mainly I overrode what they said. I argued, I knew better, I acted with contempt…
What I didn’t know then is that being a service provider needs to be a win, or no service.
A customer who is not happy is a
Why Most People Will Remain in Mediocrity
Most people will never become truly successful.
“It’s lonely at the top. 99% of people are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for mediocre. The level of competition is thus fiercest for ‘realistic’ goals, paradoxically making them the most competitive.”
-Tim Ferriss
Most people will never be truly successful.
The pull towards mediocrity is too strong. As David Schwartz once penned, “All around you is an environment that is trying to pull you down to Second-Class Street.”
Most people will never escape the pull.
Much of the thinking around us is small-minded. Most people are overly conce
The unspoken price of happiness
This article is not politically correct, and you’ll probably hate it… I am OK with that. I am even OK if you hate me… I’ve been up since midnight. Some nights even the most effective energy audio won’t help… I am OK now, but I’ll probably be tired during the day. Just before I got […]
Remembering the future meditation… for self-trust
Some people are afraid to make a mistake. They are paralyzed, or procrastinate… and in the end often don’t take action… and hate themselves for it. I am one of these people. And some of my clients are like this too. In this article I will attempt to teach something I myself need to learn …

Where there is anger there is a lie underneath…
How your integrity, or the lack of it is one of the keys to your raising your vibration, or not raising it… Yesterday we had a last session of the course, From Upset to Communication. The call was nearly all …

A good tool keeps on giving, and giving, and giving
When you find something good, then hold onto it, make it your permanent tool or partner. How do you know if what you have found is a good thing? This can be in any area of life, health, wealth, love, … Continue reading “A good tool keeps on giving, and giving, and giving”
Who or what is in power in your life. You or something or someone else?
March is a survival month. I have been observing it for 30 years. If a business can make it past March, then it will make it another year. This is due to people’s (the buyers who keep business in business) … Continue reading → Related Posts: You send for a vibrational reading. I send it […]
A feeble attempt to go to the 13th floor where words don’t have emotional meaning
When we live on the 14th and the 15th floor of our being, where words and the added emotional content govern our lives, we are utterly miserable. We have no control over our emotions: others have, words have. We eat … Continue reading → Related Posts: Chasing the blue bird of happiness How the Tree […]
Can you be delusional? I bet you have never thought that about yourself…
Most of the things I find out were in front of me, in plain sight, but I could not see it.
As I am going deeper and deeper into teaching people to feel their feelings, so they can return to the Tree of Life, I am on uncharted territory. I encounter stuff that has always been there… and in this new context it hits me funny… weird… illogical… counter intuitive: to me.
Whenever I see things from the level I am, most of the things I see are things I have never had, and therefore they are new to me. Unfamiliar… Alien.
Such is the thing i want to write now: the delusion that you need to meet everyone’s expectation of you.
That it is your duty to be good enough for everyone, fast enough, smart enough, deep enough, pretty enou
