I rarely do one-on-one sessions. And unless it is about someone’s health, r business, I don’t do them.
Why? I don’t think they are effective. Not effective for the client. and if I am interested in causing something: it is not effective for me.
Most coaching programs are useless as far as making a difference. Continue reading “Want to go fast, go alone. Want to go far? go together”

The secret of big success in most any endeavor is to outwork the competition.
But humanity, you, have a problem with that.
I watched IP Man, four movies on Netflix, yesterday. Binge-watched. I considered it work.
Work? Yeah. Character study, life study, I learn from books and movies… so I can work with you better. I love working. Continue reading “What is your issue with work? Because you have one!”

The Soaring Method to create new reality while soaring.Soaring is an altered mind state… you are not in your mind, you are not in beta brain waves… you are either in alpha or it theta mode.
Why does the soaring method work, how it works, what is different from pedestrian methods you have heard about or maybe you are practicing? This is what this article tries to sell you…
Create your own reality. Doesn’t it just roll of your tongue easily? ou can just create a new reality and this horror we are experiencing will disappear… lol.
But did you notice that it is not as easy as that?

This article is about a youtube guru type, who now teaches classes and consults to eliminate procrastination.
I have a special email address I use to sign up to things I don’t really want to be bothered further on. Continue reading “Procrastination… Do his methods work?”

Complaining implies expressing dissatisfaction about a situation or behavior. Ranting is all about expressing anger by shouting in frustration. And gossiping is talking about a person who isn’t present. So this article, at least the first part is all three. But it is also a teaching opportunity.
Every Tuesday I am on a group coaching call with one of my coaches.
I don’t like him. I say this upfront so I can watch if I have a prejudice… while I am writing about him.
Anyway, I have once written an article that I can’t now find where I say that even if you copy everything visible about a person who is doing better than you, you won’t be like him, and your results probably won’t be like his. Continue reading “Is ranting gossiping? Is ranting complaining?”

All humans are all born with a full DNA tree, like a ‘Christmas tree’ loaded with ornaments. Ornaments are the DNA capacities. Some of those capacities light up, they are active, most of those don’t light up. They are inactive or dormant.
Capacities are like abilities. In vocational testing, they test you for abilities that you can work with… Active abilities. They are not looking for more… even though there are abilities dormant in your DNA that could be activated, but aren’t.
Very few if any jobs are interested in training you to that degree. And even higher learning institutions concentrate on the material, not on your abilities… Those are totally up to you.
The more and more diverse and challenging activities you do in your life, successfully, the more abilities are activated.
The DNA capacities that those dark, unlit ornaments show as dormant are, for example, patience, compassion, perseverance, process, caring, generosity, stepping out of the picture, letting go of your obsession with what you want, seeing the big picture, intelligence, focus, connecting the dots, astuteness, empathy, process and lots more… a total of 160 capacities… Those are the prized qualities of real winners. Continue reading “Does activating DNA capacities cause an epigenetic shift?”

Why would non-linear anything be so difficult for you? So difficult that you can’t even fathom what I am talking about, let alone do it. I am talking about wordless thinking…
The answer will surprise you, but not for the reason you think.
This means a lot. It definitely means that the mind can’t help you think… the mind is all words. Words upon words, meaning upon meanings.
The mind is not the organ of thinking. Continue reading “Wordless, non-linear, real thinking is wordless”

What is confabulating? It is telling a story based on actual things that happened… But you can make, based on actual things, hundreds of different stories. But alas, most people retell the same boring story… and they are surprised that their life is predictable, boring, and not fun.
Storytelling is part and parcel with humanity. It seems that without stories people shrink, people get narrow, people can boring.
I crave stories.
When I was an architecture student, there was no time to read. It was horrible for me.
Luckily architecture, the actual doing the work doesn’t need all your attention. It is only 5% that is brain-dependent, and the rest of it is manual work. That is what I hated about being an architect, by the way. I like to use my brain, and 5% is not enough for me.
To give you a sense of what 5% is, it’s about the time you spend drinking coffee in a normal business day. Continue reading “Your life is built on a story. Make it a better story”

The anchor to your doom attachmentWhat gives it away is the implied inevitability. The language. That it’s always, or never.
Like I am never going to be successful. Stings. Hurts. My eyes are watering. I scramble to avoid it, fight mightily, only to give up after a while and resign… burn, and get up from the ashes like a phoenix bird… This has been the story of my life. Horrid.
Now, imagine free falling towards the Earth, accelerating. Your language, I guess: I am going to die. I am going to be pulped by the impact.
Imagined it? Now imagine that I order you to pay attention to the weather, to the shape of the clouds in the sky.

Dominant belief is like the fir tree that was growing in this Russian man’s lung. True story… and a great illustration of what an attachment is and how it debilitates you.
15 years ago I met a guy who was into energies. It all sounded a tall tale to me, somewhat irritating, to tell you the truth. After all I knew everything about everything… and this wasn’t one of the things I had even heard of… energies?
Anyway, I was proven wrong soon, and became a convert.
Energies became very real for me, as physical as dirt and milk and bread… Soon I was training to become an energy practitioner, and I worked on him, on myself, and even traded energy work for massage therapy… Continue reading “Dominant belief is found to act like an energetic attachment”
