Change vs. what you really want
We all say we want to change. Change ourselves, our financial situation, our habits.
Some of us only use the word because we don’t know how to say what we mean. But most of us literally mean: change.
But there is a problem with the phenomenon: change. It actually gets you more of what you are changing.
It sounds like an oxymoron. More of what I don’t want? Yeah, that’s right. More of what you don’t want.

As I said in my last article, life is drab, drudgery, boring, and meaningless… unless you blow magic dust over it.
Here are a few examples that illustrate the principle of magic:
I am using pictures with a well-known story to illustrate the point…
A few years ago I asked my little brother to look at some pictures I was putting on a gallery. His feedback to me was… “What?! just pictures!?!?!?”
That really made me think. An ordinary person, like my brother, without a context, without a story only sees the drab, the mundane, the boring, the ordinary.

Recently I found myself finding my life blah. So I set out to regain my will to live… because with blah comes no will to leave, much like when you are forced to eat tasteless food, you lose your will to eat.
I also noticed that the color faded from my language. People stopped complimenting me on the turn of phrases, the expressions, the metaphors I used… because I stopped using them.

I was thinking of making this an article, but I think, as a question and answer type of post it will work better…
I am sure after reading this, you will have plenty of questions. Please post them in the comment section of this post: that way I can answer many readers all at once. Thank you.
PS: Important: Read the summary at the end about the bug free mind, the good, the bad, and the ugly!
So, I have been observing my thoughts and emotions as they come up just like you mentioned and I am learning to surrender to everything, including negativity.
I have heard that surrendering to negativity involves feeling the emotion in its full form instead of trying to suppress them.
When you feel an emotion of sadness and start to have some tears instead of suppressing them, are you doing it right?
Because at the same time, I do not want to be giving energy to this negativity and hence manifesting them so yeah…

We all want to be intelligent, and we are never satisfied…
I have found, yesterday and today, that what we consider intelligence is wildly different from what it is, and having intelligence, intelligent behavior so misunderstood, is a big cause of us not being happy with ourselves.
Here is what I found… let’s see if I can articulate it in a way that it can make a difference for you.

My takeaways from session One of my skill workshopSome of my students are struggling to make real headway in the world, because they haven’t been able to see where their abilities could make them a success.
Although I haven’t lead the “What color is your parachute” skill finder workshop in years, I decided to gift them with a really low priced opportunity to do that workshop live with me.
I didn’t know what to expect. What I got is so much different, and so much more than what I thought could come out of that workshop… at least from the first session.

The first Osho book I have ever read, was Maturity. I started to read it in the store, and fell in love with it.
It echoed one of my favorite Landmark Education courses, the Wisdom Course.
In that course, maturity was a state (they call it possibility, just a Landmark Education word!): where you were using adult capacities to live your life.
One would think that when you are an adult you use your adult capacities, but that is not the case.

Ask anyone; the happiest moments of one’s life are the moment when we find ourselves in our vertical self… or at least centered and grounded in the bottom of it.
It doesn’t happen a lot, because we are brought up and encouraged to live in our horizontal being.

I have been observing people for about 30 years… I have participated with thousands. I have coached thousands. I have been friends with a few.
There has been one thing in common with all of them: they picked and chose what they wanted to do, so they never succeeded.
I observed the same thing on myself, and to the degree that it is there, to the degree someone won’t amount to anything, won’t amount to much.
I read quite a few sales letters a day, 1 mostly because I am interested… not in buying, but …

Yesterday I did some teaching with some people and the stuff didn’t go through. I am at a point where I am questioning if anything can be taught, if any change can be accomplished, if the current humanity is even able to go to the next level of evolution.
