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?”

Let me start with a joke:
How to have a million dollars in business? Start with two million
How do you make a million dollars in the restaurant business? Start with two million
This is the joke that is making the circles in my brain when I think about how to have clients who have ambition, motive power, and actually accomplish stuff? Continue reading “Can you grow? Grow curiosity, intelligence, motivation?”

I am finding that what stops people from moving ahead in life is either fear or arrogance…You could argue that laziness should be listed too, but I have found that laziness is a coverup for either fear or arrogance.
Nick Kyrgios (tennis player) is paralyzed by the fear of never being good enough rather than laziness. FEAR, not arrogance or laziness, has surely created the beast that is Nick Kyrgios
I get a lot of requests to eliminate people’s fear, but I am sorry to tell you: I can’t and no one can.
I am afraid too, and you wouldn’t know from watching me. Continue reading “Fear, arrogance, laziness… how do these stop you?”

Reality is highly patterned… except that you don’t often SEE reality beyond getting an occasional glimpse.
Scientists know that reality is patterned… because they were looking for it. Continue reading “Reality is highly patterned. But do you see reality?”

Patterns… or Why do billionaires read books on physics, the ice ages, the shorelines of our planet?
There are many ways to deal with the Universe, with reality, and most of them are ineffective.
The more effectively you ‘deal’ with reality, the more you get out of your life. Continue reading “Why does a billionaire read books on physics?”

Self-improvement, self-development is a lot like the illegal drug trade. It’s not regulated. A few ‘cartels’ dominate the market. What they sell is mostly addictive, pleasure promising, but on the long term destroys the user’s life.
Then there are the drug pushers, the evangelists that seems to know what’s right and what’s wrong, and how a teacher should or should not be.
The programs and the tools are ineffective… you’ll find out why later in this article.

How you look at something changes what you see. Everywhere.
If you manage to change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
This is a PhD level statement… and a popular meme. But that is the essence of context. Continue reading “How you look at something changes what you see”
Why is it so difficult to change?
I am in the business of causing change… Causing you to cause change for yourself…
I, for a period of time, declared that the context of my life was to be an inspiring leader of leaders.
How did that go? Not very well, I must admit. Continue reading “Why Is It So Hard to Change? A look under the hood”

I am not religious, so this article will be a thought experiment.
In any universe there needs to be a fixed point around which the universe can unfold.
In our universe that is the untouchable rule of human free will. Continue reading “Free will is a how not a what. It’s a who not a what.”

Clarity of language reflects your clarity of thinking…It is becoming clear that the parts that maybe are the most important ones (to you) in my articles are too new for you to hear.
I didn’t realize that I need to bring special attention to them, explain them, or they will be lost, maybe forever. And give me an unwelcome experience: frustration.
This is a great opportunity to bring some clarity to the use of two words that you, mistakenly, have been taking ans synonyms… meaning the same. They don’t.
The two words are disappointment and frustration.
They feel similar, yes, but the underlying cause is different. Continue reading “Is it disappointed or frustrated? What is the difference?”
