I worked on food and nutritional deficiency lists this morning and I noticed something interesting:
I felt resentful because what I want, what I like, what I think don’t matter when I muscletest.
And when I do those lists I need to give up acting on what I like, on what I want, and surrender my hands, literally, to Source, to Life, to whatever… Continue reading “Why self-control is the ultimate linchpin for humans”

This will be, likely, the weirdest article I have ever published… Let’s how many brave people will read it… I read books on the Kindle. And on the Kindle you can highlight something and post it as a note on Goodreads. I think I have thousands of notes there…
I am using a few of them to create this article… weird? hell, I think so.
I am now surrounded with the purring, trilling sounds of freshly born raccoons… They are already fighting. For dominance. For who will eat, who will procreate… it is the nature of Life…
Humans have taken it to the next level… Continue reading “The Selfish Gene explains much of why humans behave so badly”

We are in the middle of Passover. Passover or Pesach is a Jewish holiday, celebrating braking out of the prison of slavery. Being a slave how it has always been, how it is, the fixed mindset…
The process of reframing, and thus the Reframing Challenge is a PrisonBreak program. It is designed to take you from the misery of slavery to the joy of freedom. Please give it respect by treating it as that, not as MY good idea… Continue reading “There is more than one way to skin a cat or solve a problem”

We are in the midst of the Reframing Challenge… aka Creativity Challenge… So that is the context of this article…
Most killing diseases take many years if not decades to grow to the level where they can be detected with traditional methods.
So by the time they are detected, they are so established that healing them is not possible.
The expression ‘your cancer is in remission‘, 98% of the time means: you did not have cancer to begin with. But most cancer treatments are worse than what they are trying to ‘heal’.

Today is December 18, 2016…
I went to my chiropractor today: my neck was stuck.
I took a ride with the community center van. On the way back the driver of the van gave me feedback on myself: eager. As in eager beaver… busybody, annoying, rushing people.
I was already waiting outside when he came to pick me up, and I was waiting for him outside the chiropractor’s off ice when he came to pick me up. I meant to make it easier and faster for him, but that is not how it landed… obviously.
Ugh. That hurts…

A student of mine gave me access to a course he bought that teaches psychiatrists to reframe the client’s story so it hurts less, or maybe doesn’t hurt at all.
Reframing sounds really simple: look at what is happening or what happened from a different angle, with different eyes.
The most important element of reframing is to step out of your persona, step out of your ego, step out of who you consider yourself to be. Continue reading “Reframing… take the Precious I out of the picture”

Before you can get to anything new: more, better or different, you have to be clear of what is the old, what is already there.
So upon preparing for today’s Prisonbreak workshop (at noon EDT) I wrote an article, quite somber, quite hopeless, highlighting and analyzing why it is hopeless to do anything to get people out of their prison.
While I was writing it, one of my students offered to be a sounding board for me. Continue reading “How many different valid interpretations can you invent?”

How can a statement: ‘I cannot’ be a lie and truth as well? And how can you tell the difference?
Most ‘I cannot’ statements are lies. They actually say ‘I will not’. I won’t even try. I didn’t care to do it.
The speaker may be you, someone else, or the little voice. Continue reading “How can a statement: ‘I cannot’ be a lie and truth as well?”

If you want to go from zero to money, for example, fast, you’ll never do what it takes to make money.
But why? Why would you not do what it takes?
Almost any good why question takes you to an invisible dynamic, more often than not the invisible dynamic of the backroom dealings of an innocent looking deli.
In the front honest business is conducted, while in the back room anything goes.
You suspect it right: it is a Mafia type of business. And you are the mafioso. Continue reading “If you can’t appreciate slow… you will never get anywhere”
