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

Be a fly on the wall observing me self-coaching

This article has two parts:

In part one I coach myself to be able to make a decision if I want to spend the money and the time to sign up and do a course creators’ course. I am undecided… and that is, being on the fence is not good for me… So I want to make a decision and be done with it.
In part two I’ll look again at the idea of living, what it takes. The skill aspect. Inner skills and outer skills. You can skip to part two if you don’t want to follow my self-coaching method…

Here we go: part one: self coaching

I want to make a decision on the course creators’ course with artificial intelligence… Continue reading “Be a fly on the wall observing me self-coaching”

That sinking feeling in your stomach. Is it real?

That sinking feeling… the feeling that you don’t measure up. The feeling of impending doom. Of being found out… The fear of death…

I just read an article in the New York Times, and ended up having that sinking feeling in my stomach.

I don’t often have it myself, that sinking feeling in my stomach. but I experience it from students on the calls, so I decided to investigate. Continue reading “That sinking feeling in your stomach. Is it real?”

Why knowing your Self is the rock of change?

I have read Robert Fritz’s books… and took out one gem of each.

The oscillating structures from ‘The Path of Least Resistance’, I forgot what it was of ‘Creating’.

But the most valuable nugget was from the book ‘Corporate Tides’.

Even though it is about changing corporations, corporate culture, it felt more truthful about individuals to me.

It says, simply put, what some other sage said: When you want to change something, don’t deal with what you want to change. Instead build something you want to strengthen. Continue reading “Why knowing your Self is the rock of change?”

How well do you know yourself? And do you like yourself?

When I was about 20, still a full time student, I had a guy. He wasn’t even a boy friend, just a guy I liked. We had casual sex. Then he met a girl who he said was a nymphomaniac, and he never had anything to do with me again.

Fast forward 30 years…

I was living with this dude, who would spend whole nights with this other woman… come home only to change clothes for work. Continue reading “How well do you know yourself? And do you like yourself?”

Let’s look deeper to see what consciousness really may be

Let’s talk about the planes of existence… Where we live where consciousness can come from… shall we?

A plane is like a whole world, where certain things are obvious, certain things are possible, while other things aren’t even possible.

The two main planes I know of are the horizontal and the vertical plane. Continue reading “Let’s look deeper to see what consciousness really may be”

For you everything is the same as everything else…

For you everything is the same as everything else…

Or said in a different way: you can’t tell the forest from the trees.
You can’t tell your ass from a hole in the ground
You can’t see the big picture

All mean the same: you can’t see distinction.

When you are a student, you use the jargon, but you don’t see what it means. You use it thinking that saying the word means you can see it, you can be guided by it…

I took to distinctions like fish takes to water.

Because of that it never made sense to me what’s the problem. Continue reading “For you everything is the same as everything else…”

Why is it harmful to live in your own world? Bad for you?

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Let me set down this first: worldly success completely depends on your ability to bilocate… In essence the size of your awareness…

Whether you bilocate like the light bulb or multitasking, or are able to be both places at the same time is just a little bit different… both work.

What am I talking about? Continue reading “Why is it harmful to live in your own world? Bad for you?”

Do you live your life without preparation? Winging it?

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

There is a saying ‘Always be selling’, but I think ‘Always be preparing’ is a better saying.

It doesn’t just apply to everyone, it also is more useful.

There’s a quote famously attributed to Alexander Graham Bell: ‘BEFORE anything else, preparation is the key to success.’

Today’s parents, today’s people don’t think they are unprepared. I have read about a woman who homeschools her children, and decided that they don’t need to learn basic maths… Continue reading “Do you live your life without preparation? Winging it?”

Homo sapiens, homo victimus, human being…

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

There is an interesting human trait: when something doesn’t go as we expect it, we first, and some of us forever, blame something or someone else, other than own that we did it ourselves.

We could say that this humanity, this version of humanity could be safely called ‘homo victimus’ more accurately than be called homo sapiens… we don’t seem to be wise. Continue reading “Homo sapiens, homo victimus, human being…”

It is hard to read the label when you are inside the bottle.

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

OK, Sophie, but what is the bottle you are in? And what is the label?

Most everything that is about you is the bottle and most everything that would clue you in why you are stuck, why you don’t feel well, why your life works the way it works is the label.

To read the label, you need get outside of the bottle… while you are also in it.

I call it bilocation… but not in the physical or esoteric sense…

I mean it in the intellectual sense. Continue reading “It is hard to read the label when you are inside the bottle.”
