The Pleasure Principle and winning in life

Psychology, as a science and as a practice has some tools: Observation and brain scans.

But the problem with either is that the human element, the interpreter between what is being seen, their mindset, their attitude, their approach, is crucial.

But, of course, this is true everywhere, except with psychologists, we expect them to interpret what they observe accurately… except they don’t. As a rule.

And then there are some outliers… like Freud. Continue reading “The Pleasure Principle and winning in life”

No One Is A Prophet In Their Own Land, in their family

Passover and Easter around, you’ll spend time with family. You’ll see examples of “No One Is A Prophet In Their Own Land.”

You’ll be on both sides… by the way. But if you are one of my students, you will feel that you have something to teach your family: and no one will be interested. Get prepared!

In fact they will try to discourage you from continuing to pursue what you pursue when you spend time with me or my writing.

I’ve been teaching the Original Design for five years.

The feeling that you are insufficient for the task that is in front of you

This feeling can be colored by fear, dread, can feel like anxiety, but at the root of most fear is a sense that you are insufficient for the task that is in front of you.

Not big enough, not smart enough, not fast enough… Not enough = insufficient.

Now, for most people, feeling this is all they need to run for the hills.

For some people, they can hang in there, waiting for the feeling to subside.

For some people, unless they feel up to the task, they won’t even start.

For me: I know that unless I feel that and go beyond it, doing what I don’t feel I can, several times a day, I am not growing.

What is the bane of your existence? What kills your joy?

What is the bane of your existence? What kills your life? Your joy, your fulfillment, the love in your heart?

It is everyday arrogance.

What is everyday arrogance? It is simple, and so everywhere, all the time, that it is invisible.

You see something. You hear something. And you know what it means. Continue reading “What is the bane of your existence? What kills your joy?”

Growth is like a spiral… only when you have made a full circle… that you see it

The 67 steps spiral… second take… I am at step two… and can see the territory I have covered.

There are a few incredibly useful distinctions in the 67 step program.

Of course, if you listen to the audios through the filter: true/false, right/wrong, agree/don’t agree, you’ll miss them all.

And it’s a pity.

How do I listen? I have said it before: I listen in theta mode… i.e. as if I were taking a shower. I get wet.

More, better, different… the wide world of what doesn’t make a difference

When you ask the question why you are reading my articles, your answer will be saying what you want.

More, better, different.

You may say: you want to raise your vibration, so you can have more, better, or different. What…

You may be prepared to do different, maybe even more, but you surely aren’t thinking that it is NOT what you do, it is how you do it.

When I talk about beingness… you think it’s a what. But it’s a how.

When I say “love,” you hear “what”. but I mean “how”. When I say generous, you hear “ugh, I have to give” which is a what, while generous is a how.

Intangible capacity: complete and thorough

Complete and thorough

It’s a behavior we mostly only know as “missing” in others.

We see what others don’t do… and we complain.
We rarely see ourselves not doing a complete and thorough job.

Why? Because doing a complete and thorough job means going outside the narrow swath our cone of vision lights up.

Even when someone gives us feedback, we consider it their problem…

Here is a positive example:

Case study: Attachment removal. What can you learn from it?

I started to offer attachment removal in 2015, I think. This is one I did today… and I am sharing it with you because there is a great lesson in it, especially if you read Osho’s words I also included:

She: Do I have any attachments?

Me: yes. you have about 20 Continue reading “Case study: Attachment removal. What can you learn from it?”

Becoming-a-human-being interrupted… Freud?

Today has been a wonderful day… until I had a realization.

Until you make peace with your parents, none of my work will work for you.

Why? I will ponder that… maybe by the end of this article I’ll know.

What’s been happening? Continue reading “Becoming-a-human-being interrupted… Freud?”

What do people want when they come to my site? What do YOU want?

For a while I have been cut off from what YOU want… you, who just came to my site. I don’t know what you want, I don’t know if I can serve you at all. I have been busy with my students… creating success after success, helping them raise their consciousness, activate new spiritual capacities… amazing…

Looking at my log files, this is what I see…

40%, maybe even 50% of my site’s visitors want to manifest more money
