Could you take advice from the more successful future you?

Course-correction is the nature of Life

Scorpio horoscope: Don’t allow a longing for impossible perfection to derail your commitment to doing what’s right

I got an interesting question this morning from a client who is trying to get healthier.

She asks: I also have another question as I really have to and want to take this food issue really seriously now.

Is there also a test you do where one can see: this is the food the body is really designed for and food which is better to avoid.

A list where I can see this is what the body really needs when its in a good condition and to keep and maintain the health with its appropriate food?

Pay attention to how many time the client uses the word “really”. Continue reading “Could you take advice from the more successful future you?”

How I used the ‘how to boil a frog’ method to grow myself

immersion frogsI have been attempting to learn higher level marketing than I have been doing for a few years now.

Marketing is hard… and I don’t have a natural aptitude for it.

Every time I bought a program I ‘had to’ abandon it, because … well, I didn’t know why.

This is what I saw : Continue reading “How I used the ‘how to boil a frog’ method to grow myself”

Validation Challenge… Why is it worth doing it?

Because 95-97% of humans live as an object in a world of objects, they can’t see you as a person. They see you as they are…

So they can’t…

In my Validation Challenge where you have only one job: as you go about your life in the world and find something to notice, something of value, in people, whether you know them or not.

When people start out in the challenge, all they can see is what they don’t like. Then occasionally they can see something they like. That is still all about them. Continue reading “Validation Challenge… Why is it worth doing it?”

Will doing more of what you are doing make you successful?

Will doing more of what you are doing make you successful, happy, accomplished?

Most businesses, including my type of business… seem to accept anyone as a client.

But no business can serve everyone well.

Some people come, with credit card, cash in their hands, or their umbilical cord… ready to plug it into your business, and yet you, as a business, you as a person, are better off without them.

I can’t help everyone. I literally can’t produce the result you pay for without your participation, without you being part of the solution.

There is a saying: you can’t teach a pig to sing. It will only annoy the pig, and they’ll never sing.

This is not to say that some people are pigs… this is to say that some things you can do, some things you are willing to do, some things are in your nature to do, and others aren’t. Not a problem… Not wrong… those things are just beyond what you can do. Continue reading “Will doing more of what you are doing make you successful?”

Seeing value and validating is a facet of The Sight capacity

Why is having The Sight important to you? why is seeing important? You are not blind after all!

Religions that talk about the Third Eye are full of crap, by the way. Here is the Wikipedia entry:

The third eye is a mystical and esoteric concept of a speculative invisible eye, usually depicted as located on the forehead, which provides perception beyond ordinary sight

They make it sound a woo-woo thing… but the sight capacity, seeing what you can’t see, what is beyond ordinary sight is available and important in your day to day living. Continue reading “Seeing value and validating is a facet of The Sight capacity”

Your actions, your desires are for the immediate

This is a long article. It is only worth reading if you are interested in a different life than you are living. If not… not worth reading… Go back to Facebook, or your romance novel, or witches, goblins, vampires, computer games, daydreaming, or whatever you fill your life with.

I am re-reading one of my favorite fiction books, Reamde by Neal Stephenson. Continue reading “Your actions, your desires are for the immediate”

Imagine having more money than anyone on Earth… How would you feel?

Imagine that you are on the riverside fishing.

You see that the line is tout, the rod is trembling, so you do what fishermen do, and you pull out a fish.

As you take the hook out of the fish’s mouth the fish starts to talk. It says: My good man (or woman, if you are a woman), please release me back into the water and I will reward you handsomely: I will fulfill three wishes for you.

You are surprised, you question your sanity for a little bit, so you throw the fish back, after all any wish should be more valuable than the 3-4 bucks this fish is worth when you cook it. Continue reading “Imagine having more money than anyone on Earth… How would you feel?”

Most of life is counterintuitive. Maybe all…

Most of life is counterintuitive. Maybe all… but I shy away from all, always, every kind of statements… they are always suspect of an ideology…

So how is life counterintuitive?

Here are a few examples:

  • If you want to get something done fast, the worst way to go about it is to hurry. It either takes the same time, but cost you emotional expenditure you can’t afford, or it takes a whole longer.
  • The more coffee (or tea) you drink because you are tired the more tired you become.
  • The higher your moods are the deeper your depression will become.
  • The more important praise is for you the more wounding a bad feedback will feel.
  • The more you want to be happy to less happy you’ll become.
  • If you want to be happy, and say: I will have a little about-me time, or more than a little… you immediately less happy.
  • In fact, the more your life is about you or about your life, the unhappier you become.

Why would your brain hinder you instead of helping you? what does it think?

Your brain only allows you to act on what it can see… what you know it ignores.

I have a few partially written articles… how many? about a hundred… or more

I often take notes in a text file, and save it. So I have 6,201 files in this articles folder. So when I don’t know what to write about, I have a ‘swipe-file’ of sorts… I just find something that still lights my fire.

One of the things I avoid like the plague is boring. Other words for boring is tiresome, flat, uninteresting, or officious… I didn’t even know about this until today.

I have been asking and paying for help.

For about a decade or two before that? lol, I never asked for help. My Forget Thyself soul correction is very proud of being able to be independent and be able to do anything… but it is a very limiting way to be.

It doesn’t matter what you know, it only matters what you do

I am still in the middle of finding all the ways I screw myself.

I am seeing something that, of course, I am not alone with. I am soo proud of what I know… but, of course, in life the only thing that matters is what you do. What you actually do. Not what you can do, not what you plan on doing, but what you do.

In games, at work, in your growth… Bummer.

I know so much… but it is all mind candy, unless what I do comes from that knowledge.

Some more than 50 years ago… yeah, I know, most people weren’t even born yet, I had a chance to learn this, but I didn’t.

Budapest, 1969. I was sitting in the department head’s office with two other students. Architecture school. Structural calculations exam…. called Statika in Hungarian. Continue reading “It doesn’t matter what you know, it only matters what you do”
