Become all you can become with SophieHe that won't be counselled, can't be helped
80% of your results come from 20% of your efforts.
This translates to a lot of mischief.
I just read an article, OK, I read 20% of it… lol… about China, and about chabuduo… that is Chinese for Good Enough.
The problem is standards.
Your 100%, the Chinese 100%, and my 100% are not the same.

I started to read the book by Edward Deci, “Why we do what we do. Understanding self-motivation”.
This is the first book, that I know, that defines self the way, or similarly the way I do…
To become a person, to have autonomy, self-determination, self-expression, integrity, self-motivation, the most important job is to find the self, by distinguishing what is the driver of all your actions, whether it is inner or outer.
And if it is inner… is it the self, or is it the “not-self”?
Greed, narcissism, hate… area inner motivators, but they are all the not-self. So are all the “negative” emotions, like frustration, haste, the desire to fix, to punish, to suffer… etc. Continue reading “Want to find your self? Express it? Be true to it? Be motivated by it?”
The current state of science, knowledge is “one size fits all”.
Just do this and this and this… and you’ll be happy, wealthy, healthy, and in love.
Every profession has their “this is the way, this is the truth” postage stamp size area where they dance…
The medical establishment, pharmaceuticals, psychologists, religion, education, and even the “spiritual” or “alternative” people.
I am a people watcher. I watch their behavior. I watch what they welcome, love, what they tolerate, what they avoid.
I remember I was about 30, and I said:
this is exactly 57 times more complicated than that.

I wrote this article in 2016. Nothing much has changed… I got older…
As you know it is the 50th anniversary of my high school graduation.
I had a bunch of extraordinary folks as classmates: they have been meeting every year for the past ten years… and this year they decided to redo the yearbook, which is not a book in Hungary: it is a big board with everyone’s picture and their names.

Rarely, (hailing mostly from other countries,) I find people who have all the 90 daily essential nutrients supplied in their diet. Amazing.
Now, the craze of taking supplements, the MLM (Network Marketing) type of sales systems gets to these people through friends and family, and they start taking “designer” supplements, and suddenly they don’t feel well.
They are entering the Western world’s unhealthy habit of trying to fix something that is not broken.

I am asked questions, all the time.
Asking questions is one sign. What kind of questions… that is yet another sign.
And then asking intelligent questions… well, that is quite another matter.
I am going to my memory now, and say what I retained about questions from the book Curious… that the better questions, the more intellectual questions one asks the higher level of evolution the person is.
But no matter what question you ask, the answer, if it sticks strictly to the question, will be on the same level where you asked it from.
That is a problem… Continue reading “Where do your questions come from? If you even HAVE any”

I am sitting here this morning, playing Freecell.
Every game this morning is such that it takes no effort, no talent, no guidance.
WTF? What is the message here? If Freecell is my guidance system, and I have to extend no effort, what does that mean about me?
I am playing and I am thinking, probing, pondering.
Is it a reflection of my life? My life right now? That I am shying away from doing courageous things? Hm, that feels bad enough, so I must be on the right track! Bummer. I muscletest, and the answer is YES. Hm.

There is a fundamental built-in error in tests that involve answering questions about ourselves.
I have found that personality tests that rely on your knowing yourself and to predict what you would do in certain situations, are profoundly flawed. 1
I say this after working with thousands of people, one-on-one, observing them, feeling them (I am an empath) and comparing who and how they are compared to what they say about themselves.
The gap is significant between the two. Continue reading “What is your self-image? Do personality profiles work?”
People who are hopeless, people who can’t see a future for themselves are more likely to throw their money on unproductive purchases, or YOLO…
Ever since I’ve started to download the energy of the Days of Power, I’ve been wondering how I am going to know that it’s working… how it will manifest, practically, in my life.
Whenever something new comes in, my imagination goes to the known, the familiar, and I guess that is how the human mind works.
So I had no idea what may happen, what could happen, given the energy.
