Become all you can become with Sophie
He that won't be counselled, can't be helped
It’s Tuesday and I just got back from my exercise class.
It was full today. Everyone was in post-holiday mode, except a few people.
I had a conversation with a woman, and had a chance to see how certain words, how certain way of saying what I have been saying lands.
I shared my story, how I escaped becoming mediocre like most people. I said no to coasting with people in my life.

If you want to grow as a person, or grow anything worth growing, you need energy. Lots of it. Continuously.
Physical law says that systems, unless they are very highly organized closed systems, like the brain, will fall apart with time (entropy)… Your life is NOT highly organized, because it is not a closed system. So in order for it to stay organized and effective, it needs a ton of energy to be injected, continually.
Left alone, your life starts falling apart. This is what happens during holidays and vacations.
Injecting energy into your life is going to be a crucial distinction you need to learn.

Success literature, books, articles, movies about success… are they worth following?
Success leaves traces… as in footprints in the sand
If you look at what people did, how they did it, the tracks converge and become the “strait and narrow’, exactly the way Leo Tolstoy says it in the Anna Karenina Principle.
So there is no wonder that I am finding articles nowadays that I could have written myself, if I were a success writer.

I cried when I watched this video. I didn’t know there was any sign that there is hope. I still find it hard to believe, but my tears are flowing nevertheless.
Can you game the system?
Some of you think you can.
The system is the physical reality with its laws of physics.
How do I know?
We had the Days of Power meditation on December 30th. The “sky” opened at 4:07 pm.
It stays open for 24 hours.
I say it plainly on the call… every time.
If you went to use the recording of the call: your whole life, your how of life is “wanting to game the system”. Continue reading “Check yourself before you wreck yourself”
I saw something today I hadn’t seen before. But before I say what I saw, let me dispel some myth: there is no such thing as bad energy. Energy is energy. It is good if you use it for good. And bad if you use it for bad. I’ll write another article on this: but I have the urge to state it here and now: there is no such thing as bad energy.
OK. let me start saying what I wanted to say: Continue reading “How will you have the energy to grow? How I did it…”
When you experience life as good, harmonious, nurturing: what is it that makes you experience it like that? What you have? What you do? Who you are with? What you have accomplished?
This is a question I bet you never asked.
You have asked different questions:
I am having an interesting issue to ponder. Maybe you can ponder with me?
The guy whose writing I am so taken with, his books, the Hungarian guy, according to my muscletest has a prejudice against Jews.
In common parlance, he is antisemitic.
Nothing special there, a full 30% of the developed countries’ population is antisemitic and 70% of the Hungarian population. 1.4% of Hungary’s population is Jewish. A total of about 140,000 people. Before the Holocaust the number was 900,000. 14.31 million worldwide, or 0.2 percent. Or two people in every thousand people.
If you are part of a minority against whom there can be or are negative prejudices, a Jew, Black, Moslem, Indian, Chinese… you’ll have this issue as a daily, in the background and maybe even in the foreground conversation.

How to grow…I dreamed it. Or rather I was kept up by it…I dreamed BEING chocolate… Working out all the bumps and unevenness… And I knew what it meant.Then I got up… ran to my computer to write it down, because it is so important… By now it is almost like an unreal memory… But this is how much I could capture for you:
The way to grow and growing into excellent is to keep making parts of you better, until there is nothing to make better. Even and smooth like chocolate.
Continue reading “Growth is like chocolate working out the lumps by itself”
You use the “compare and join” method: you compare what they do or how they do it, and find ONE THING that they do better to produce better results. You “join” them in doing that…
I don’t procrastinate. You could join me in that.
What? Procrastination is so “normal” that not procrastinating can put you into the mad-house… involuntary hospitalization. lol.
