It’s all in a day’s work
Of all the things I have ever said to myself, this is the most potent saying.
It has saved me from suffering, it has saved me from all the nasty feelings that plague humans nowadays: belligerence, entitledness, feeling slighted, frustration, anger, laziness, yearning, wanting, and more.
How? Why? Continue reading “Guaranteed to make you feel happy: It’s all in a day’s work”
I have worked for myself for the past 40 years with a short, three-year stint working for the City of Jerusalem…
But even there, it was both clear and unclear to me that the number one skill to make a living is the ability to sell… in person, on the phone, on a video, or in writing.
In fact… it is not just a skill you need to make a living… it is a skill needed to make a life…
Because either you sell them… or they sell you….
Now, why am I telling you this? Continue reading “Some things that you didn’t know that you didn’t know”
I just moved my sites to a new, bigger server… made the jump after about eight months of waffling… I waffled because of the money, waffled because of the technical challenge, waffled because I didn’t want to do it…
But on New Year’s Eve I did it, and was bracing what was going to be a lot of work, but more importantly a rare occasion for me to face the tiger: I am not the smartest person on the planet.
Not even close.
I never was… by the way. But since i have repurposed my brain cells to do the inner work for seeing, I feel stupider, if that is even possible, than before. Continue reading “Coherence: what is it and why you should strive to have it?”
If what we need is a larger vocabulary so we don’t fall into the trap of the mind where everything is the same as everything else, that it makes a lot of sense to start, as soon as you can, building a larger vocabulary.
Here is the first word:
Jaunty. 1. könnyed and 2. vidám in Hungarian, I have to admit that in the past 37 years since I left Hungary, I haven’t seen anyone being jaunty… Maybe I saw people obnoxiously loud and too much smiling… but jaunty?
Jaunty is having or expressing a lively, cheerful, and self-confident manner, cheerful, cheery, happy, merry, jolly, joyful, gleeful, glad. It is not the the jolliness of pretense. And it is not the drunken glibness of the party. It is beautiful and it is natural. And I am, occasionally that, but haven’t had a word for it.
When I look at people’s reaction to it, they cheer up and smile with you… Continue reading “Your vocabulary is predictive of your success”

OK, confession time: I have never inspired a challenge, and I am not exceptionally good at doing anything like this, but…
But with the limited knowledge and experience I have, let me share with you some of the ideas of winning, and some of the reasons for failing. These will come up, count on it. I know they will, even if you are prepared well:

Confession: You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me
One of your most defining characteristics as a person is, whether you are an optimist or a pessimist.
But the common, and ordinary way to look at those attitudes is inane… as in stupid and near-sighted. Continue reading “Everybody teaches you the shadow-work of Plato’s Cave”
How you do anything is how you do everything. I can spend five minutes with you and can tell your chances for success, for love, for money… even without measuring your vibration. Just by observing you…
You can also watch your behavior. Observe it when you can, observe it when I ask you to.
Now, go back to the article, Not all complaints are created equal… or just think about the word “complaint.”
Watch if your knee jerk reaction is to turn away from it.
MY knee jerk reaction is to tell you to go away. But I’ve noticed it, and I know that asking you to leave will want you to stay… so I’ll just shut up, and let you fall off by yourself.
You know the joke:

I, occasionally, maybe twice a week, get listless… List·less(of a person or their manner) lacking energy or enthusiasm.
“bouts of listless depression”
synonyms: lethargic, enervated, lackadaisical, spiritless, unenergetic, lifeless, vigourless, lacking energy, limp, effete;
So I have been looking into what this listlessness really is. Is it an emotion? Is it a feeling? Where is it coming from?
It’s an unpleasant feeling. Not restful… quite the opposite, it makes me want to get rid of it. Continue reading “When the spark is gone: where has the spark gone?”
