Become all you can become by raising yourself higher on the Tree of Life

A day after the election, regardless of who won, your job is to return to what is YOUR job

It was time for self-reflection today. I am almost done with it.

I have come to the conclusion that it is time to pay attention to what I can control, what is within my control, and give little or no attention to what I can’t… where emotions would run high, fear, anger, concern… for me.

I noticed something today about some of the most successful people I know… which might help you…
Can you guess at how they might have responded to the election?

Awareness… it’s seeing what you are looking at. Accurately

I have been in this inquiry since February when I first heard Tai say: the strongest predictor of your success, in any area of life, is the level of your awareness.

So what is this awareness that is so important.

Nine months… it’s taken me till today to get complete clarity of what this ‘thing’ awareness is.

Six million Jews perished in the gas chambers and mass graves during the holocaust, because they were not aware.

Tens of millions of people were ashamed of themselves and their association with Germany, people who elected Hitler and the Nazi party… because they were not aware.

How to grow from where you are begins with…

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

I’ve been quiet.

I am working through some stuff… nothing personal, it’s about you. It’s about what to teach you. How to teach you. It’s about seeing, in more detail, and more precisely what is the truth about you, so I can talk to you the way you can hear me.

The more precisely I can ‘diagnose’ what is the situation with you, the more effective my message and my teaching can be.

But, it seems no matter how precise my teaching, it is not really up to me, or my teaching, what will happen to you or your life.

It is up to you. Your actions, your attitude, your ‘undeclared commitment’ in life. Continue reading “How to grow from where you are begins with…”

A posthumus case study: Israel “IZ” Kamakawiwo?ole of Hawaii

Brother Iz

I just listened to Over the Rainbow by Brother Iz… Hawaiian genius entertainer, now dead.

Cause of death: complications from morbid obesity.

I am most interested to know what made him so obese… And so many people in the mourning crowd…

This is a posthumus case study… Something you can learn from… for yourself.

Anchor your existence and start becoming a person

We all want to be a person… but none of us know how to do it.

This article is a method that can help you becoming a person…

In this article I use an analogy with plants… but this article is not about plants, it is about you having deep roots so you have a core, and when you say I, you know that you are talking about those deep roots…

I have run out of good shows to watch on Netflix.

I began to watch and abandoned four shows, fast.

And I just had an insight:

Most TV/Netflix customers are like most people: they have no foundation from which to watch, see, read anything.

Even when it’s a well designed, well executed show: these people don’t know why. Or the reason it is good for them is different from person to person.

For me a good show is a show well planned out. A show that decides, ahead of time, what it thrives to accomplish. That is the context inside which they develop the characters, the story line, and direct the actors to act in. Continue reading “Anchor your existence and start becoming a person”

How I use ego to get over myself…

I expect you to hate me from time to time. It is part of the process.

Some people come around at some point. Some sooner than others.

The ones that come around tell me that after a while they actually could see what I pointed out. I respect them for that.

Ever since I embraced being stupid, integrated it into my personality, stupid became a phase rather than a conclusion.

What do I mean? Listen up, this is important! Continue reading “How I use ego to get over myself…”

How to Learn Many Things at Once… very useful if you are in my coaching program

There’s so much you want to learn, need to learn, should learn… so much, in fact, that you don’t know where to start.

Most people get inspired for some goal, sprint at max effort for 1-2 weeks, burn out, push the goal into the back of their mind, and never touch it again. New Year’s resolutions are a classic example. Campaigning.

Let’s look at how to improve your chances of success.

First things first—check your bases.
The first thing you should do is touch base with yourself. Ask: “Is what I want what I want?”

Learn awareness, the strongest indicator of health, wealth, love, and happiness

Changeability, adaptability is the secret of living a consistently good life… but changeability and adaptability depend on awareness. As your awareness grows in the four pillars of the good life, so your success and the quality of your life…

By the way, did you notice I didn’t say “learn about awareness…” but that is what you read? Right?

In the old Forum program, the Forum Leader came in, screaming at us, poor unsuspecting brand new participants: For you Everything is the same as everything else … except not always.

It took me years to decipher that and see that it is true.

People who become worth a damn have stuff in common

What is in common, what is a shared characteristic among them? What does all people who are worth a damn do?

There is not much in common. It is not talent. It is not ethnicity. Not personality or schooling. Not religious affiliation.

The one common characteristic I have found is books. People who become worth a damn are readers.

Even more importantly than being a reader: the most important commonality is when they started to read.

Prostitution. Your base survival strategy…

I caught something today:

Prostitution. Your base survival strategy.

What is prostitution?

Let’s look at it without a dictionary, shall we?

Institution is building something that lasts, like a country.
Constitution is your base inclination, personality, body, temperament.
Substitution is using a different element to serve the same purpose.
Prostitution is to replace what is innately yours… with someone else’s interest.

Let me now check what the dictionary has to say about it?

The unworthy or corrupt use of one’s talents for the sake of personal or financial gain.
