Delusions, Lies, Pretenses, Obesity — what is the cause?
Most people think that they are honest people. Some people know that they lie about this and that.
What they don’t know is that they live on the top of a huge iceberg of lies, delusions, pretenses, but they can only see the tip of the iceberg… unless…
This week was a line of demarcation for me, in more ways than one. Continue reading “What foods cause obesity, delusions, mood swings?”
How everything you know, everything you ever learned from others, everything is being taught makes you miserable, and unable to become an Expanding Human BeingI woke up this morning with crystal clear upsight: if you have a because then you are wretched or you are heading to being wretched.
In the book, Snow Crash, there are two main characters, Hiro and Y.T. 1
They win the war that is waged against humanity.
Hiro is a hacker, and a master sword fighter. He fights to win the affections of a girl.
Y.T. fights because what else is there to do.

Asperger’s is named after an Austrian pediatrician, and is not a disease. People with Asperger’s will not go around murdering people out of anger: when people do that, it has more to do with suppressed anger than with any alphabet syndrome…
Here is a video made by the mother of a child with Asperger’s syndrome, syndrome meaning a group of symptoms characteristic of a “diagnosis”, in this case most of the symptoms deal with where the person is above and where they are below the “normal.”
Asperger’s is part of the autistic spectrum, just as dyslexia is. I have dyslexia but demonstrate symptoms of Asperger’s in my inability to care, in my focused attention to what interests me, and on being the rule-police… lol.
People like me don’t fit in. We are outsiders. I spent a lot of my time craving closeness, but never really achieving it.
The desire to fit in, to run with the herd is not as much the desire of the person who is different, more it’s the desire of their family: misery loves company: they don’t want the person be left out of the “fun.”

Motto: Mentor: Someone whose hindsight can become your foresight
In 1981 I got a letter from a man from Israel. He claimed to be a second cousin on my father’s side to me. He was coming to an educational conference in Hungary. He came with his wife.
We spent time together, they were staying with me, in my one-bedroom high-rise apartment in Budapest. He visited with every member of my family, and witnessed their contempt for me first hand.
He promised to be family to me if I decided to go to Israel.
One year later I packed a suitcase and left Hungary. illegally. It was winter in Hungary when I left, in fact it was below 15 minus, very cold. It was about 80 degrees in Israel when I arrived, penniless. I knew one word in Hebrew: shalom.
UPDATE: I have some underachiever friends and students. I suspect that they may have dyslexia. It just occurred to me… after two excruciatingly difficult conversations in a row… where the partners in the conversation felt stuck, dense, and their level of comprehension is low.
Both are men, both are making a living in their own business, both shy away from learning anything new.
It is one of the worst things for me when I try to teach someone something that they need, and they nod and yes me to death, only to do the opposite or nothing.
Every human wants to make a difference, wants to matter, more than anything, and this flies in the face of that…
But maybe they are dyslexic. Hm.

If this article doesn’t apply to you, then I hope you are intelligent enough to know… Just please know, that 90% of the people it applies to will also think: “This doesn’t apply to me”. lol… not funny.
For context, you need to know that the first big breakthrough that set my life to a higher ground was, when I realized that I was stupid… and still am. So with that said: please read the article.
I woke up angry.
I stayed a few more minutes in bed to fully get what I am angry about.
I am angry about your attitude.

I just got an insight of what may be the most important factor in your level of vibration.
I got an email from a marketer who I have paid for a course, but slowly have lost my trust in…
But I am still on his list, so he sent me an email.
I’ll copy the email to the bottom… because it is a good email, it is moving, and yet. 3XYZ marketer’s email to me… meaning to be inspiring, no doubt.

This laziness thing came up again today.
During shopping. Is a fruit bowl worth the extra $3? It was 9.95, and it’s now 12.95… she says, and I have no idea how to answer. She has no idea what the weight of the fruit is, what the fruit would cost if you bought it and chopped it up yourself.
Just the question, out of context… is it worth it?
So what the heck is really this phenomenon: lazy, that is not lazy at all… but what is it really, if it is not actually lazy?

Empathy… and empaths. Is the empathy we talk about in the world as a good thing and what empaths have the same?
Empathy 4 as psychologists have it, is not the capacity to feel another’s feeling as your own. That is the “extrasensory” ability of an empath: more a nuisance than a good thing.
Empathy, as psychologists have it, as evolution has, probably, intended, is the ability to recognize another’s feeling and have mercy for them, sympathy for them, want to help them. Continue reading “Do empaths have empathy?”
I have been coaching people for many years now. The goal was always to take people on a journey to become their best Self.
Now, the task is easier when someone knows who they are. When someone has a Self.
Most people don’t. They have a persona for each group they interact with, the family persona, the student persona, the friend, the gossiper, the entertainer, the this and the that.
Those personas (roles you play) are not you. They were created by a perceived demand in the circumstances, a perceived demand in the environment.
They leave you empty, they leave you being jerked by the shoulds, and have to’s and the wants… like a puppet on a string.
You sense that you have no control, you sense that you are not you… a vague sense.
