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

Everyone thinks they are smarter than you… but why?

Everyone thinks they are smarter than you… but why? And how can you avoid that trap so you can start having some results in your life?

I came to my computer this morning not having an idea what article to write.

So I started to watch a few videos on youtube I lined up, after I saw that one of my students learned ‘precession‘ from one of the videos I published, while it went way over my head.

Time to recap…

So I watched the video, and muscletested. It tested ‘not true’ for me. One of my favorite people, (an evolutionary event in humanity’s history, according to Buckminster Fuller…) Marshall Thurber. Zero truth value. Wow… let me watch a few more Marshall Thurber videos…

So I did. It’s about 8 am now, and I have been at it for almost three hours.

I learned a lot.

Here are some of the things I learned: Continue reading “Everyone thinks they are smarter than you… but why?”

In this article I’ll teach you something that has the potential to turn you into a happy, joyful person. No kidding.

Also, it can serve as the bridge between human and human being…

From that you can guess: the distinctions in this article are high level.

At present, if you are a ‘normal’ human, you are judging yourself and others. You are miserable, wretched, prone to get happy, get sad, get depressed at the drop of a hat. Continue reading “The 3 levels of value: an amazing process to love yourself”

What can the Nobel Prize winning physicist’s story teach you? OR What did Frank Kern learn the hard way?

First, before I get into the story itself, let’s ponder the meaning of teaching so we are on the same page, OK?

As someone who attempts to teach, let me tell you what it’s like for me. I find a thousand different ways to say, demonstrate, frame what I want to teach. And I invent thousand and one stories. I find books that hint on what I want to teach. Often I sing it, I make it a comedy, make it a tragedy. And I make you read. I make you practice activating your eye muscles and the related brain areas… Continue reading “What the Nobel Prize winning physicist’s story teaches you”

We are never smart enough, knowledgeable enough

We are never smart enough, knowledgeable enough, clever enough to accomplish what we really want to accomplish.

Life comes without a manual. And our parents, our schools, our ‘teachers’ know as little as we do.

No one has taught us how to live.

Here is a little teaching…

We are never already enough to accomplish what we really want to accomplish.

If you only want to accomplish for which you are enough, you are not building a life worth living. What makes life worth living is the experience of expansion, growth, reaching for, striving, not the having. Continue reading “We are never smart enough, knowledgeable enough”

How to stop thinking while listening?

If you ever asked yourself a different question: how do I become less reactive? You would have gotten a better answer asking the question in the title.

Whaaat? Yeah.

But how? But why?

Let’s first look at what it takes to stop ‘thinking’ while listening. Continue reading “How to stop thinking while listening? And actually hear…”

Can you listen while you talk? Do you listen while you talk?

As usual, I started my day with emails. Why? because, surprise, I wasn’t aching to tell you something. I had nothing to say.

That doesn’t stop millions, maybe billions of people from talking nonsense, I observe. and in fact I myself was labeled chatty Cathy, or chatterbox in English, or Dumás Dusi in Hungarian. Continue reading “Can you listen while you talk? Do you listen while you talk?”

Is this as deep as one can go? the monkey wrench…

What do you think the biggest issue with humanity is? What threw a monkey wrench in the works?

More often than anything it is hurry that is the monkey wrench in the works.

Eagerness. Wanting. Trying. Hunger. Urge. Forcing.

All horizontal plane. All competition. And all ineffectiveness. Monkey wrench in the works. Continue reading “Is this as deep as one can go? the monkey wrench…”

What is your real self? Where is your real self?

Everyone, even the most shallow people, wonder who they are. Really.

By the time you are out of high school you have a constructed identity, but it is neither you, nor it makes you happy. But it may make it bearable to be with other people who don’t know who they are, who live out a script that is either compatible with yours or not. Continue reading “What is your real self? Where is your real self?”

How to innovate yourself out of a bad situation

On the other side of pain, on the other side of unpleasant… How firewalking is an analogy to life… Or how to innovate yourself out of a bad situation

Firewalking is the act of walking barefoot over a bed of hot embers or stones.

Firewalking has been practiced by many people and cultures in all parts of the world, with the earliest known reference dating back to Iron Age India – c. 1200 BC. It is often used as a rite of passage, as a test of an individual’s strength and courage, or in religion as a test of one’s faith.

One of the buzz-words Tai uses in several of his steps is ‘innovate yourself out of’ the trouble you are in… the stuck states, the problem, etc. It’s Jeff Bezos’ favorite method of growth… Jeff Bezos of Amazon.com fame…

I have never met a person, I have never met a student who even remotely could imagine this accurately, including Tai. Continue reading “How to innovate yourself out of a bad situation”

How the missing Sight capacity relegates you to…

How the missing Sight capacity relegates you to the lower echelons of society?

One of the signs of no Sight, I found, is the lack of skills.

Before you can choose a direction for your professional life, you need to find your portable skills. Skills that you have used in a different context. And then, among those skills, you need to find the ones that you like to use, enjoy using, and use them effectively, leading to success.

If you like to write music, enjoy it, but it hasn’t lead to success. Then writing music is not one of your portable skills that you want to base your life on. Continue reading “How the missing Sight capacity relegates you to…”
