Become all you can become with Sophie
He that won't be counselled, can't be helped
I came up with the expression “top 10% of your mind” many years ago, when I was teaching the What Color is Your Parachute workshop.
It is said that you only use 5% of your brain. But, of course, you use your brain most of the time, but not for something worth using a precision instrument even the stupidest person possesses. Continue reading “How you dampen the fire that motivates you to grow”

I just realized that I left out one of the most frequent energy leaks, need leaks from the last article.
And that is the minuscule pleasure you gain when you feel clever, when you feel you got one over someone, when you are told you are clever.
Or maybe that you are pretty. Maybe some other compliment, that you are put together. Or that you do a good job. Or that someone pays attention to you. It is all the same bait.
You are the guy/gal who, when you do the five questions exercise, you pay attention to the positive feedback. When you listen to me: you are waiting for the positive feedback… and hear none of the negative, or if you do, you grieve about it, but won’t change a thing.
You are a whore for little pleasures, ego boost, ego gratification, ego stroking.
You sold who you could be for a bowl of lentils. Bowl of lentils or whatever it was that Esau sold his firstborn right to Jacob for.
As long as you are hooked on this pleasure/release, you’ll never amount to anything… guaranteed. Because anything worth achieving requires you to control the release… to bear with discomfort, to hold your peepee, so to say.
I am lucky. My parents never complimented me, so I never thought I was clever and I never thought that I don’t have to work for things.
They did tell my two brothers, though. And both of them suffered because of it.
One married someone who pushed him, the other one married someone who didn’t.
And me? I worked my ass off, got into trouble, got thrown out, was rich, was poor, went from country to country, learned seven languages, and here I am, attempting to teach you something that can change your life, that can return you to the path of becoming a person, to fulfill the Original Design.
Obviously my chances are between slim and none.
Because to change, you need to make a huge and consistent effort to take more and more discomfort, more and more pain, without trying to fix it.
Do you want to? I don’t feel that you are… but I am willing to be surprised.
Some of you are… to some degree.
If you do well with it, then you probably will do well with everything.
If you don’t… well, we know that how you do anything is how you do everything.
One good sign I have: the new clients are a whole new breed. And with them I think I can start a revolution.
The old clients, nearly all came at the time when it seemed that what I am about is doing it for you… energy healing and such.
Or: just connect to Source and get everything you wanted.
Laughable. But you see I had to get clearer myself… and I have to admit it to you and to myself that I didn’t know how to take you to the promised land, to Heaven on Earth, because a lot of knowledge was still missing.
And my hunch is there is still a lot missing. But the truth value of what I am teaching is climbing steadily.
And it’s a journey. If you are waiting for someone who knows everything you’ll get someone who pretends that they know everything… just like you have.
This is a very important article. If you just read one article, this is it. Without getting this, what I am showing here, you can’t and won’t be able to fulfill your destiny as a human.To belong to the cool guys, you needed to, at least, pretend, that work, school work, reading, learning, achieving are not important to you.
It is pretending that you don’t care.
The cool guys are losers. In life. But they look good. Continue reading “You have uncomfortable feelings? The why will surprise you”
If I asked you: how much of my articles you actually get… What would you say?
Experiments and tests show that if you have the right attitude, high level of interest, and you are coherent: you can receive as much as 7% of what is being said. Word based communication.
Re-listening or re-reading the same thing won’t improve the percentage much. Why? Because what you think is there replaces, effectively, what you hear or read the second time.
This is what is normal.

A lot of years ago a guy, another participant stood up in a Landmark Education seminar and shared something that has impacted my life to this day.
Here is what he said:
“The other day I was lying on the couch, working on a report for my workplace.
I didn’t like what I wrote, so I crumpled the paper and pitched it to the waste basket that was on the other side of the room. After missing it several times, my wife picked up the waste basket and put it right next to me.”
That was all he said. I was shaken to the core. Move the things you need close to where you need them… Hah.
Because we don’t live that way. We hope to get everything done. We make to-do lists, but something always falls by the wayside.
If and when you add a new thing to do, which happens all the time, something else falls off, or you forget to do it.
You live a life that is set up to remain the same. No matter what you want… no matter what you say.

Some insights on health, and why things are the way they are, and why are people different in their needs…
Yesterday I spent three hours to listen to Dr. Joel Wallach. 1
I think I have spent, to date, about a hundred hours listening to him. Why so much? He talks too fast, and he isn’t saying the things to be understood, but to impress… In that he is a typical doctor: big ego… holding his cards close to his chest.
But… But knowing where to look, knowing what sort of things to expect, to always expect wrong eating, nutritional deficiency, misguided knowledge, has been my tool, in addition to being able to muscletest, while I am connected to Source.

This is famed ad writer, Roy William’s article, but I know you should read it… You don’t feel you need it, but if you can turn around and actually need it, and follow what it teaches, it will make you a winner. A rarity.
An it is not only about jobs, it is also about anything that involves other people. Whether you are a college student struggling to write your dissertation in Poland, or a doorman in New York dreaming of stage success. You may be an accountant in Sweden, or a policy writer in Virginia.
Maybe an earth moving company owner in Minnesota? A recent graduate of Chinese descent? Or me.
We all need to learn what he says, or else…

The biggest issue is not what you have. The biggest issue is how you use it.
I get a lot of emails. People want better health. People want more money. People want to make a difference. People want to have a higher vibration.
What no one has said to me: I want to know more. I want to see more. I want to grow.
One of my students wrote to me this morning: How must it be to see so clearly the truth of things invisible to others? I wonder.
If I took you on the top of the Empire State building, you would be able to recognize a few landmarks, more if you are from New York.
Vibration, the number, is like the number of floors you are above street level.
But it is not enough to be higher, it is important to see things for what they are.

Visualization is a tool to accomplish what you want, but it can also be the tool to diagnose what you are not resonating with. Or a tool to get trapped in the desire trap.
The ultimate clue as to what you can have and hold onto, is to what degree you can visualize, what detail, what variety of images you can have in your “movie”.
This is what vision boards and vision movies use.
As with any other singular method, the results are a mixed bag: about 6% of the users see their vision materialize, some sees some result, most see no result.
Why is that? why is it that a Frank Kern, millionaire marketer, can envision in one afternoon a whole life, with a lot of details, like the tiles of the bathroom, and a few years later get exactly that, while another person can’t imagine a coherent image, and can’t get results…

This article reveals the tip of a significant iceberg.
Icebergs are huge chunks of ice, shaped like a pyramid. The tip of that pyramid shows above the water level, the rest of the iceberg is underwater wreaking havoc. Continue reading “Gatekeepers To The Good Life You Could Negotiate With?”
