Give your inner wisdom a chance to talkI have been changing up what I do in my business to find… again… what works.
What do I mean ‘works’?
In business (but my hunch is everywhere in life) things work well for a while and then they don’t. Continue reading “Give your inner wisdom a chance to talk. Then listen”

It wasn’t always… It is getting worse… In my generation, in my country of origin… in my ethnicity it wasn’t predictable…
But America… it is. In California: it is. In the South: it is. In New York: it isn’t. In England: it isn’t. In South Africa: it isn’t. In Canada: it is.
What is it? What is that predictable thing?

I had an insight yesterday that was completely driven home today by my guidance system.
We see something, and then it’s gone.
It is gone, and it didn’t have time or a receiver to impart the important learning in what we saw.
This happens with such frequency, that we stop paying attention to our inner guidance, our bodies talking to us…
We see the the feeling for a moment from the corner of our consciousness, and the guidance is lost… again.

The other day it occurred to me that the Precious I I have been talking about is just another name for vanity.
But vanity is a loaded word, while Precious I has some compassion in it, it can be measured, everyone can relate to it, so it is less denied out of hand.
Because when you want to see yourself, be self-aware, you want to avoid the words that condemn.
Or in some cases using those words is your m.o., modus operandi, to keep it up, because you make it sound that you have nothing to say in the matter.
And having something to say in the matter is all the magic you need: you can tweak it, understand it, sympathize with it, and win. Continue reading “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?”

4 daily tasks: not what you need to do. instead what you see you can do for a future you decided to have.
In my case the future: being able to pick up and move countries without loss of productivity, loss of health, loss of income, loss of standard of living. Having an apartment, food, transportation, internet connection, mobile phone… the important things.
The four daily tasks are really a very useful tool.
An aside: what is a task? Anything that you can do in one sitting, not long enough even to have to get up to go to the bathroom. Even writing an article is a project that is made up of several tasks… idea, outlining, writing, editing, title, publishing. It may include even researching… Continue reading “4 daily tasks… a revolutionary tool to happiness”

If it has a name, it is no longer a feeling…I am a True Empath. What does it have to do with the price of tea in China? A whole lot. I feel feeling you have… you have the feelings, but you don’t feel it. You only feel what you said it means.
Empathy, the ordinary kind, is part of the human DNA. It can be overpowered by the predatory genes… making the human not experience it… not care, and a whole 30% of humanity doesn’t feel empathy, and doesn’t care for another’s plight, pain, misery or need.
And then there is empathy where the person feels what the other feels to the degree that they are merged, the feelings that the person themselves are not feeling keenly. The shared feeling is always physical, interpreted according to the empathic person’s own experience. Continue reading “Why do we have feelings? Not emotions… feelings…”

Tree of Knowledge or Tree of Life? Death or Immortality? Choose! Learn to dance with Life…
Had we received the knowledge of good and evil from God, our discernment would include God’s perspective – but Adam chose to TAKE the knowledge rather than receive it.
I copied the above sentence from a very insightful interpretation of what happened in the Garden of Eden. Continue reading “Learn to dance with Life! Death or immortality?”

I like challenge.
I believe that only failures, only mistakes teach me anything, so I make sure I set my life up, I set my business up to have a steady stream of failures.

It’s been stormy here. Lots of rain. The other night a warning went out: a tornado was poised to touch down in Central New York: not a tornado area.
Nothing is wrong: as long as reality works the way reality works, all is well… even if it rains on your parade, even if you hate doing your morning walk trudging through mud, even if you are not prepared like I wasn’t. Continue reading “The Inner Authority that you don’t have but could…”

Oscar Wilde wrote, ‘…one has to choose between living one’s own life, fully, entirely, completely—or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in its hypocrisy demands.‘ The world demands that you always try to be the smartest person in the room…
I saw something today that can be important to for you to learn, because I don’t think you know. It is against everything you have ever thought…
Because it comes from intelligence, not from smart.
Being the stupidest person in the room is the most intelligent move you can ever make… Continue reading “Why you want to be the stupidest person in the room”
