Yesterday’s article caused some despair. Rightly so…

Yesterday’s article caused some despair. Rightly so…

The article was about your about-me score… and the illness that you either already have, or will have soon enough.

How do I know that I am about me? That my about-me score is high?

Now, before I answer that question, I have to say: that some people managed to overcome it with The Sight capacity practice. Continue reading “Yesterday’s article caused some despair. Rightly so…”

The art and science of turning your life around

OK, the title is lofty, and I am not at all sure I can actually teach the art and science… but I’ll share all I have seen so far.

I am learning something I hoped I’d never learn…

I just measured his health measurements… and he is not well… again. Continue reading “I am learning something I hoped I’d never learn…”

Why can’t you love yourself? Any idea what’s missing?

Why can’t you love yourself? Any ideas what’s missing? Prepare to be shocked…

I woke up and it was almost 6 am. My plan is to get up between 3 and 5 am…

I wasn’t upset. I didn’t think I should have gotten up earlier.

The question here is to ask: who is driving my life? My shoulds or me?
