Taking away what doesn’t contribute: the Anna Karenina Principle

Taking away what doesn’t contribute: the Anna Karenina Principle

anna karenina principleHow does change fit into the Anna Karenina Principle, or the principle said in another way: the method of taking away what doesn’t contribute to happiness to make your life better?

Remember: the Anna Karenina Principle says: All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.

The principle implies that the unhappy families have one or more things that make them unhappy, things happy families don’t have… That happiness is simple, while unhappiness is complicated.

In this article I will look at change and how the Anna Karenina principle, of taking away what doesn’t contribute can be done in the context of change. Continue reading “Taking away what doesn’t contribute: the Anna Karenina Principle”

I am reading this book, Change or Die by Alan Deutschman

the three r's of changeAlan Deutschman says you need 3 R’s… relate, repeat, reframe to effect lasting change.

I hate when people try to do anagrams or 3r’s from their advice, but I’ll fight off my disgust, and translate for you…

Relate, the first R, stands for hope. Trust. Faith. Faith that you can and will do it.

He says that for someone to change someone else has the believe that they can.

The doctor, the therapist, the teacher. Continue reading “I am reading this book, Change or Die by Alan Deutschman”

What is the Promised Land I have been talking about?

What is the Promised Land I have been talking about?

the promised land signThe Promised Land… what the F…?

Yeah, I expected this reaction. And no, I am not some religious cult, and the Promised Land is not somewhere physically, like on Mars.

The Promised Land is embedded in our DNA… a new Man, fully godlike, and fully equipped to live in productive peace that was foretold, the thousand years of peace.

What is that? Continue reading “What is the Promised Land I have been talking about?”

How do you change yourself into someone who actually gets sh!t done?

How do you change yourself into someone who actually gets sh!t done?

change yourself change your lifeChange yourself, change your life. When you change everything changes.

That is the principle… But how do you change yourself?

And if you manage to do that: is that change permanent? Does it go as deep as your DNA? or is it temporary?

Great questions, disappointing answers. You CAN change yourself, and the new you will be temporary… unless the change is so profound that it causes epigenetic shift… which is rare, but possible.

Why change? Because how you are creates a predictable future, and for most of us: that is very ugly, tragic, and lacks what we really wanted our life to give us: joy, satisfaction, self-love.

If that is a good reason for you, then keep reading. If not… don’t bother…

This article is going to be, hopefully, the first in a series of articles that explore change. Continue reading “How do you change yourself into someone who actually gets sh!t done?”

What causes disease: a lack of ease, feeling bad? Can your health measurements answer that question?

What causes disease: a lack of ease, feeling bad? Can your health measurements answer that question?

health measurements show the 90%, the invisibleI have a number of people who subscribe to getting their health measurements monthly.

Today I measured four of those. I played Freecell in between to cleanse my system.

Of what? Of the previous person’s energy.

This cleansing serves two purposes: 1. I won’t accidentally remain connected to the person I just measured 2. I steel myself to the experience of being them.

What?

Yeah… When I am connected to you, I am, physically and emotionally merged with you. My brain, luckily isn’t, that’s why I can stay connected to Source, that’s why I can measure stuff about you. Continue reading “What causes disease: a lack of ease, feeling bad? Can your health measurements answer that question?”

What is the lesson that if you learned it your light could shine?

What is the lesson that if you learned it your light could shine?

not too old to learn the lessonIt seems that there is a lesson to learn to all of us. The lesson that most of us never learn.

A few years ago, OK, I just looked it up: exactly 10 years ago I bought a bunch of books written by L. Ron Hubbard of Dianetics and Scientology fame.

I ended up reading only one of them halfway, watching a video, and leafing through another book.

I don’t like to be influenced much, and I especially don’t like to speak ‘Tree of Knowledge’ stuff… repeating what others said.

As a young woman, still a student, I lived with a philosophy student whose father was a famous philosopher. They had ‘classes’ every Sunday… he, his two brothers, and his father. My friend, Bundi wasn’t a thinker. His middle brother was. The brother has a Wikipedia entry, my friend is long forgotten.

I want to explore the state of soaring more… if you don’t mind

I want to explore the state of soaring more… if you don’t mind

naked cleaner and state of soaringThere are authors of books and courses, gurus who seem to walk a foot off the ground. Then they turn around and ‘document’ what they are doing, what they did to accomplish what they did… NOT!

My first experience of this whole idea of not teaching what you did to enter connecting, or soaring, or whatever you want to call it, was with Vianna Stibal…

This woman published two books, has ‘trained’ hundreds of teachers to be theta healers.

I was intrigued. I did his exercises from his books and they worked… except where he teaches how to connect.

Then one time I found a video where she teaches it.

My naked cleaner was there that day, and I called him over. I gave him the headphones to watch the youtube video, and I watched the screen with him. Continue reading “I want to explore the state of soaring more… if you don’t mind”

Why some cultures honor the soaring eagle as their symbol?

Why some cultures honor the soaring eagle as their symbol?

soaring methodAre you in harmony with Life? If you aren’t, you likely cannot soar… And soaring is the key to living a life worth living. This article shows what’s in the way and suggests how to remove what prevents you from soaring.

This article is a meandering journal entry: just walk with me… it will be worth your while. I promise.

The more in tune you are with the Universe, inner or outer, the more what I am going to share here applies to you.

My core group students are going through the grief of what it was like to be a child with a violent father, or a father who didn’t like the way you were, or having been an unplanned unwanted pregnancy…

The deeper you can go into the despair of it, the easier it is going to be to create a new name for you… and to create a new reality around that new person. Continue reading “Why some cultures honor the soaring eagle as their symbol?”

You are the anchor of the world that keeps it fixed.

It’s Friday. Friday is my day off… which doesn’t mean I won’t write an article. A day off is a feeling. I can do anything I want…

Psychopathy will prevent you from soaring…

Psychopathy will prevent you from soaring…

psychopathy will stop you from soaring, will make the world fixedIn this article we’ll look how psychopathy will stop you from soaring by making you, the center of the world fixed, unchangeable. And unless you can change…

Don’t be mistaken: Source’s definition of psychopathy doesn’t quite agree with the common view… I listen to Source, not the common view.

Long time ago clients are suddenly interested in participating again… clients that I hadn’t heard from for many years.

And somehow I managed to talk to their soul… and the soul told them to get off their butt and do something about their life.

Because don’t be mistaken, life is not kind to anyone, and it continues to be unkind if you continue living exactly the way you have always lived. Continue reading “Psychopathy will prevent you from soaring…”
