I am changing… Why aren’t you? You can’t? You won’t?

I am changing… Why aren’t you? You can’t? You won’t?

the-measure-of-intelligenceI have been changing. Subtly.

The biggest problem with subtle changes is that they go unnoticed. And if you are like most people, you want encouragement, you want people to see that you are becoming something better.

But your environment is about as aware and as present as you are, which means: not very. And besides they are busy having their head up their ass… so until you are very very very different, they don’t notice it.

A good example is your weight: if you drop two dress sizes… then they notice it. But if you are doing it right, in a sustainable fashion, it’s taken you months… And for those months you had gotten no feedback.

5 Characteristics Of Grit — How Many Do You Have?

5 Characteristics Of Grit — How Many Do You Have?

be creative and persistentReprinted from Forbes… 1

Recently some close friends visited, both of whom have worked in education with adolescents for over 40 years. We were talking about students in general and when I asked what has changed with regards to the character of kids, in unison they said “grit” – or more specifically, lack thereof. There seems to be growing concern among teachers that kids these days are growing soft.

When I took a deeper dive, I found that what my friends have been observing in-the-field, researchers have been measuring in the lab. The role grit plays in success has become a topic du jour, spearheaded by Angela Duckworth, who was catapulted to the forefront of the field after delivering a TED talk which has since been viewed well over a million times.

Jane Roberts, Seth, other channelers… Vibrational Review

All channelers are fakes, frauds, impostors.

There are no entities that can be channeled.

Reality is a lot simpler than that.

You CAN tune into the Zero Point Field, I have been, but it is much less colorful, much less like the channelers and the entities and the b.s. that is floating out there.

But you are stupid… and you can be told anything, you’ll be fascinated, and blown away.

Here are a few examples:

  • Jane Roberts: personal vibration: 100. Truth value of what she says: less than 1%. Bullshit artist.
  • Esther Hicks: personal vibration: 150. Truth value of what she says: 1%
  • A course in miracles and its author Helen Schucman: personal vibration: 70, 1%

Expanding human being aka living an interesting life

Expanding human being aka living an interesting life

tumblr_o59w74rBvA1szqwnwo1_500I am reading one of my all time favorite books. Again. I was guided to read it again. As I have been guided to watch everything I watch, read everything I read.

Sometimes the key to the insight is on page 800 of a book, or in episode 60 of a Netflix series.

The trick is: trust, don’t be in a hurry

Don’t expect the “key” to be a direct answer, and once you have what you were needing, acknowledge it.

This book is full of clues for me. Clues for why you are living a life of quiet desperation, why you don’t live an interesting life.

The book is about a little girl who gets an interactive smart book, to teach her life.

Neal Stephenson: The Diamond Age. Wikipedia says: The most important quality to achieving an “interesting life” is deemed to be a subversive attitude towards the status quo.

She is four years old when she gets the book.

The chemicals in your food: are they a big threat?

The chemicals in your food: are they a big threat?

 

coverThe biggest threat to “them” is the man who stops jumping

There is an issue that I need to address: your trained Chemophobia.

You have been trained to bark up the wrong tree.

You have been trained to have Chemophobia, and it is bigger threat to your health than the chemicals themselves.

Why? For the same reason that you are attracted to film stars’ sex life… You don’t know chemistry, but you understand some words. So you are morbidly curious…

It takes tweaking to get things right… including your diet

It takes tweaking to get things right… including your diet

individual... with a brain to useI find that most people want to be mindless… Get a solution and never look again, never think again.

Tai calls this: an experiment run too long.

But for most people experiments are non-existent. They want to live their lives as puppies or kitties… not as humans.

Why is that? you ask… whether you are one of “most people” or one of the few who are individuals.

To answer that why question,

  • You may look at how you were brought up.
  • You may look at how you were educated to be sheep.
  • You may look at that as character defect.
  • You may blame this or that…
The truth is simpler and more sinister than any of those you have already thought of.

Arrogance. Ignorance just hides behind it…

arrogance is looking down... comparisonI have been dealing with arrogance in my students.

Arrogance is unearned boastful superiority.

Most people don’t know and don’t care because they themselves are not achievers… but you can have confidence that is justified by your accomplishments, your superior knowledge. Continue reading “Arrogance. Ignorance just hides behind it…”

What does the “good food” you eat do to your body?

What does the “good food” you eat do to your body?

alzheimers-brain-image_largeMost people’s health number is at or under 10%. Same is the hydration number… at or under 10%. The more you know about your nutrition, the lower is your number.

I know a “star” nutritionist whose number is 5%. Both the health and hydration numbers.

I have found only a few exceptions with higher numbers.

I mean a few… People who are working with me on their health… plus a long time student, plus a long time friend, plus Dr. Joel Wallach.
