Become your own rainmaker… start using your brain

Your brain is an Unused Resource

It is what most rainmakers do. Start using unused resources.

Rainmaking is a business/industry distinction.

One gift my father gave me is he encouraged me to not resist. I went through several interpretations of what he meant… I thought resisting made me a person, but I was wrong. Resisting gave the power over to others, and kept me stuck… stuck, stuck stuck.

This is a spiritual pattern, a spiritual principle… Continue reading “Spiritual pattern recognition. Why is it important?”

You say you don’t have a monkey on your back? If that were so, then you would be one in a billion:

We all have a monkey on our back… one monkey or more. It’s a humanity wide issue… more on that in another article…

In this idiom the monkey is a problem that has been difficult to get rid of or to solve with the tools you have… with the mindset you have… It definitely feels like an uncatchable ball.

The monkey is often invisible to you, and unless someone else looks for it observing you, or you accidentally stumble on it, that monkey is influencing you in everything in life. Continue reading “Got a monkey on your back? What monkey? Monkey!?”

Curiosity… Hunger… appetite… sexual desire…are you killing them all?

Your parents, your teachers told you: don’t eat candy, don’t eat cookies before dinner: it will kill your appetite.

The five ‘hardware-type’ needs, the need for energy supply, information, safety, reproduction and group are guided by feelings… all a lot like hunger.

Hunger can be fulfilled with empty calories or good, nourishing food.

Self-actualization is the process of becoming all you can become.

Who is to argue that ultimately that is what we all need. Innately!

There are two non-physical needs, according to Margoczi in the Feelings book.
