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

Self-reflection through books, movies… tough

This is a very personal, very self-reflective post, I am not trying to teach anything. If you learn something, I am happy. But I am not writing it to teach. With that said… here it goes…

I have reduced my “work-load” to the degree, that I now often find myself with nothing to do.

I responded by making a list of things to do when there is nothing to do. I think this is the first time for a list like that: my life has been busy. Until now. It is not that I could not do a thousand and one things to grow my business, make myself fit, enjoy myself: it is just not on the schedule, so they are not part of “what there is to do…”

So my place is still a wreck, I still have tons of stuff I would not want to take with me if I wanted to move, so there could be a lot of things to do, if I just put them on my list.

Instead of that, I bought a book to read; it passed my picky muscletest. ¹

It’s a book about a teenager. WTF? What was I thinking? But I trust my muscletest, so I kept reading it. It didn’t make sense why I “had to” read it until the very end. The end was so unexpected, that I was jolted out of my calm, and into a turmoil.

The Secret To Attaining A Good Self-Image and Self-Esteem

Remember, that the more you like yourself the better you like your life? But did you know that you don’t like yourself, because you disappointed yourself?

When you are down in the dumps, and you try to pick yourself up, the experts say that you should do some juicy affirmations. But the truth is, that you know you are lying, so the affirmations don’t do you any good, in fact they erode the little self-esteem you have.

Your soul, your “real self” doesn’t approve of lying, doesn’t approve of cheating, doesn’t approve of stealing, and the like.

Our outward directed attention gives us the mistaken impression that if the world likes us, if we are outwardly successful, then we’ll like ourselves.

Unfortunately for most of us, the outward success doesn’t do anything for your self-esteem, and for your liking your life. It is the inward work that matters.

What is your WHY? Why do you want to become successful?

What is your REASON and PURPOSE to raise your vibration?

Get a big enough reason WHY, so you can be in action and achieve results?

Most people that sit on the fence, or sit on the sidelines wishing they could be somewhere else, enjoying the fruits of their labor, have a few characteristics to share, in addition to sharing the attitude: “this isn’t it”. Whatever that “this” is, it isn’t it. Neither is how they feel about themselves, nor is the weather. The whole gamut.

The question I set out for myself to answer: what is it that makes these people not successful, not acting, not accomplishing much of anything, not attaining the fruits of their labor even when they do act?

If they don’t act, they beat themselves up for not acting, for being indecisive, fearful, overly cautious. They call what stops them fear of failure, but they are wrong: that is not what stops them. We’ll see later what it is.
They don’t have a vision, neither short term, nor long term. When I ask them what they want, they don’t know. They know what they want, what they want to get done. They may have a vague direction, but there is nothing more to it.

Are you a moocher, a looter, or a producer?

Each of these is a distinction, moocher, looter, producer. Your belonging to one of these categories can be considered a sliding scale or a pregnant/not pregnant absolute, depending on your capacity to look at existence and not feel compelled to lie.

Mooching and looting is being on the side of Death. But let us not jump ahead.

How do you find out if you are a moocher or a looter? Continue reading “Are you a moocher, a looter, or a producer?”

Detoxification: for clarity, energy and happiness

Everybody knows that detoxifying your body is important. Everybody knows, but very few people ever do it, or do it in earnest. That includes me… lol

There is a 30-day program by Dr Schulze that is good, it cost over 300 bucks, and for 30-days you have to be on an all raw diet. It produces miracles, except…

I can’t do it. Continue reading “Detoxification: for clarity, energy and happiness”

Dreams: scary dreams, guiding dreams, fear vs intuition

I use everything for guidance. My method of guidance is one of the magicians of The Soaring Method use for guidance. (Carlos Castaneda demonstrates it well in his Journey to Ixtlan… He calls the two, signs and omen.) But the inner guide, the intelligence that you need to develop and then communicate with, the part of you that sees with 360 degree cone of vision, sees the Big Picture. Your intellect, your eyes, your mind can only see a narrow cone of vision.

Being guided, to see the signs, takes awareness, sober awareness. You can’t be sheep: you need to stay aware and awake. Continue reading “Dreams: scary dreams, guiding dreams, fear vs intuition”

Tired? Tired All The time? What is the cause?

Restriction, Small Pleasures, Snacking: How The Way You Live Renders You Low Energy and Tired For Life

‘Why am I tried all the time?’

The most frequent complaints I hear is that people don’t have enough energy for life. They feel drained, tired all the time.

The two items little corner stores have to stock and re-stock are cigarettes, little bits of chocolates, and energy booster packages. People buy them like without them they can’t continue.

All the ‘raise your vibration’ sites teach methods to pick you up: obviously you need pick-up if you are low on energy, if you are tired.

It’s an epidemic. And eating super foods, ginseng, exercising, laughing, and all the stuff ‘they’ recommend are treating the symptoms not the cause. Just like Western Medicine, they try to change the fruit without changing the root… Trying to get apples from a cherry tree…

This article deals with that complaint from an unusual angle. We are going to shed light at the invisible roots of this condition, so you can get your energy, if you are willing to change the roots: your behavior, and say good by to tiredness.
