The One thing: The who, the how, and the role of rest?

The One thing: The who, the how, and the role of rest?

working 7 days a weekWhile context is decisive, the One thing, the way I teach it is as decisive regarding your life as context.

This is how it works:

Let’s say you invent for yourself and for your life to be consistent. That is your One Thing.

And then you use that one thing to do the same things you’ve been doing, but now you do them differently. Continue reading “The One thing: The who, the how, and the role of rest?”

What is yours to do? Your ONE THING, right now…

What is yours to do? Your ONE THING, right now…
do what is yours to doDo what is yours to do… and all will be well.

I have found that this above statement has only 30% truth value.

What is in the 70% that would make it really true?

If you look at the 100% true statement: ‘How you do anything is how you do everything’ it gives you a clue. Continue reading “What is yours to do? Your ONE THING, right now…”

Curiosity, hunger, appetite, are you killing them all?

Curiosity, hunger, appetite, are you killing them all?
Curiosity… Hunger… appetite… sexual desire…are you killing them all?

Your parents, your teachers told you: don’t eat candy, don’t eat cookies before dinner: it will kill your appetite.

The five ‘hardware-type’ needs, the need for energy supply, information, safety, reproduction and group are guided by feelings… all a lot like hunger.

Hunger can be fulfilled with empty calories or good, nourishing food.

The need, the second most vital need is the hunger for information. We also call that curiosity. You can fulfill it, just like the first one, with junk. Continue reading “Curiosity, hunger, appetite, are you killing them all?”

Can you grow? Grow curiosity, intelligence, motivation?

Let me start with a joke:

How to have a million dollars in business? Start with two million

How do you make a million dollars in the restaurant business? Start with two million

The role of curiosity in how far you can go in life

The role of curiosity in how far you can go in life

I am following the teaching of a guy who teaches marketing…

Marketing is finding a need or a problem you can help resolve, finding the people who have it. Create  or find the solution to sell, finding buyers for it, and selling it mostly through audio, video, or the written word.

The company that is the best at it is Agora Financial. So this marketing teacher went to Agora to find out how they teach tens, maybe hundreds of people to write in a way that Agora’s marketing is so extraordinary. Continue reading “The role of curiosity in how far you can go in life”

Why acknowledging source raises your TLB score?

Why acknowledging source raises your TLB score?

When I ask a question, either on the phone or on a webinar, I feel where the person I am asking is looking for an answer.

99% of the time the person is looking in their mind. As if that were the only place to look.

When I ask people if they ever knew the answer to my question, they don’t hesitate to tell me that no, they had never met the question or the answer. And yet… they look in their mind. Continue reading “Why acknowledging source raises your TLB score?”

Meditation: separate yourself from the mind

Meditation: separate yourself from the mind

I have started the Osho meditation series with Day One.

Lots of talk… very meditative for me. Participants complained that there was no meditation.

When you meditate, that doesn’t mean there is silence outside. The silence is inside. When you meditate it doesn’t mean you cannot listen to someone talk: it only means you listen and hear it, but not through the busy mind, that compares, argues, tries to understand, criticizes and judges. No, the mind simply allows it to be, allows it in, in a meditative state.

It is like when you are in the shower. The mind doesn’t argue with every drop of water… and you can get wet without the mind interfering.

The human species was ‘designed’ to reach the stars…
You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.
~ Buckminster Fuller

The human species was ‘designed’ to reach the stars… intellectually and spiritually.

If it were a spaceship, it came with a design flaw: you need to flip a switch  to leave the earth’s atmosphere, and it kind find the switch.

The switch to unload the earthly attitude is there, but it is incompatible with living on earth as a physical being fully relying on the mind’s translation of sensory information.

So humans can’t find the switch. Continue reading “The human species was ‘designed’ to reach the stars…”

Intention is the gateway to your higher functioning self

Intention is the gateway to your higher functioning self

The response to my offer to train you to turn on and use your intention has been disappointing.

So in this article I am going to focus on what it is that you are missing.

Obviously I am not a salesperson, and have no real experience in selling you what you want…

Even though you want what I have, maybe, you sill only hear what you have always heard.

So what is it that I haven’t told you about the Intention activation?

The most important thing is: Continue reading “Intention is the gateway to your higher functioning self”

Cancer: The unintended consequence of positive thinking

Cancer: The unintended consequence of positive thinking

Whoever thought that the well-meaning positive thinking will become a prison and a sentence to a ‘no joy life’ for most who become a ‘practitioner’ of it, about 80% of humanity at this time.

Whether you know it or not, your powers of comprehension depend on your powers of distinguishing. Continue reading “Cancer: The unintended consequence of positive thinking”
