On the Tree of Life (Reality) clarity is the main component of having a winning life.
Clarity, on the Tree of Life, is finding the cause of an effect… Once you know the cause, you can play with it like a musical instrument: you can change out of the cause, you can modulate. Continue reading “Clarity is power, but meaningless on the Tree of Knowledge”
As I am observing my students they belong to two very distinguishable camps.
I myself belong to the second camp. But my reasons for not asking help is different from yours… lol. Maybe.
When I look back at my childhood, I must have decided really early on that asking for help is useless. At best they say “go away”, or who do you think you are… At the worst they beat you up.
And I could use a lot of help. Especially in learning. Especially since by brain damage almost 20 years ago. Continue reading “You’d rather die than ask for help. People should volunteer”
I have come to say: “I don’t see how it can be done”
It’s taken me many years… and diligent practice.
My soul correction is arrogance… Knowing it all. And being rigid about it.
In the olden days I used to say: “There is no way”, or “I can’t…” or “It can’t be done”
The difference between the two attitudes is: one is arrogant, the other is not. It has taken me this long, because letting go of what you know, letting go of knowing that you see the truth… is painful.

If you look, carefully, now you know why you are not happy.
Here is another quote: People get married because they want their lives witnessed. When your life is witnessed you feel alive… I was par phrasing the Susan Sarandon character’s words in “Shall we Dance?”
The best way to make sure you are on the path to happiness… is actually to be in a coaching program.
In my 67 step coaching program I witness your life.
Obviously, if you don’t care what I see: if you don’t care that I see that there is no harmony in what you think, what you say and what you do, then it is not really doing much for you…
If you don’t care… Continue reading “Happiness is when what you think, say, and do are in harmony”
How The Tree of Knowledge goes against nature… on the level of individual. Case studies
The insights of this article came from participants. The insights could not have come without participants looking at their behavior and attitude from the sensations perspective, which is the Tree of Life, working with what nature intended.
On a sidenote: I don’t think nature intended 99% of humans to be obsolete and be replaced by Artificial Intelligence. I think nature intended evolution on a more human trajectory.
But back to what we have discovered, what we have observed, what we have gleaned.
First off: I will begin calling the feelings that come through the senses: Sensations. I think that the book should be re-christened as well… but it is really not up to me.
I’ll organize the observations by the soul correction… but you may find your limiting behavior in any soul correction. Continue reading “How The Tree of Knowledge goes against nature…”
One of the big obstacles that is in your way to growth is not being able to tell things apart, things that are different, but the difference is either subtle, or it is below the water level. Or is confusing because the names from the Tree of Knowledge use the same word for both
One of these is going to be important, so I’d like to encourage you to put some energy and effort into telling these two apart: 1
Why is this important? and why you want to learn what I say and not what others teach… 2 Continue reading “Feelings and emotions: what is the difference?”
March is a survival month. I have been observing it for 30 years. If a business can make it past March, then it will make it another year. This is due to people’s (the buyers who keep business in business) spending habits…
For people, the reason they don’t have money to spend in January, February and March, I think, begins by overspending in December. Then they scramble through January, February and March to make up for the Christmas indulgence.
Most people live hand to mouth, YOLO (you only live once), Epicurian… Continue reading “Who or what has the power in your life. You? something else?”
If the opportunity to step into the success you crave came along: would you be able to take advantage of it?
I was listening to an audio that talks about being prepared for opportunity.
Now, please listen up, I intend to teach you a spiritual practice. So if you listen ‘about’, in a gossipy way, you won’t get anything, and that would be a pity. Continue reading “If an opportunity came along: would you be able to benefit?”
This article is about using guidance, but not for its truth value, but in spite of its truth value. 1
Tai’s 67 steps program coupled with my coaching is the perfect growth program.
It’s not because of me, it is not because of the steps either but because of its structural essence.

I wasn’t going to write an article today.
I had four calls yesterday, and I expected myself to be tired, and running on empty.
But I am well. Not tired. The Days of Power must be really working… lol.
The fear, the uncertainty is never quite extinguished in a healthy brain: nothing is certain… even what you see or feel can be mirages.
Anyway, I am putzing around, and find an old Landmark Education notebook… and it triggers an issue I will need to deal with.
