Become all you can become with Sophie
He that won't be counselled, can't be helped
This article may be a bit upsetting… but hey, I am known for rocking the boat… Being a trouble-maker. Have always been…
Can you identify with this scenario?
Something bothers you. Something hits you the wrong way.
You sit and you say: ‘I know I shouldn’t be upset about this. I know it is not cool. I even know that it is my issue, but I am still bothered.’
And you are bothered, and you are bothered.

I am in a state that can be compared to the cocoon state. I intend to emerge on the other side as a butterfly.
Wasn’t I a butterfly before? Who knows. But humans don’t live a day or two, like butterflies, and they have more stages than butterflies.
When you grow (if you grow) spiritually your growth pattern is much like…

Humans, are smarter than animals. On the other hand, they are ignoring their cellular intelligence… that has as much knowledge as their mind.
Animal species have survived because they adapted to circumstances, and because only the strongest specimen of each species was allowed to multiply.
Let’s talk about adaptation.
It’s 94 degrees in Syracuse today, and I don’t have air conditioner.
So how do I survive? How am I well regardless of the circumstances?

The culture we live in, the mind-meme that is the dominant influencer of our emotions, our actions, our decisions in life says: the most important thing in life is fitting in, taking care of your loved ones, to be loved, to belong.
Sounds so nice, doesn’t it? Sounds like that is what will cause our species to survive, that is what is going to cause us to be happy.
Let’s examine if it, in fact, contributes to happiness, and to the survival of the species… i.e. if it contributes to personal growth, personal evolution, because any species that its members don’t grow or can’t grow is declining and dying.

First off: what is an empath, what is empathy?
Empathy is innate to humans… it gets killed, mostly, in childhood… but it is still there, dormant. Empathy, like caring, seems to be a threat to most humans, it seems that to care, or feel another’s pain robs you of your power to take care of yourself first. It is a DS suggestion, it’s not true. Even feeling caring or empathy, the choice of action is yours…
An empath is someone who can direct their attention and feel someone’s feeling, physical or emotional, accurately, at will. It is rare, and most empaths are unconscious, unaware that they are feeling someone else’s feelings. I don’t know any other conscious and highly evolved empaths, and muscletest says there isn’t any other alive at this point in time, it’s just me.

There is a strange phenomenon I’d like to share with you.
It’s been bothering me for 23 years, and I have never been able to remedy it.
23 years ago I was a local celebrity publishing magazines for bar-patrons. It was a cutting edge magazine, and my editorials were making some waves.
I had my own angle on everything and people loved it. I had people calling me begging for back issues they missed: the magazine was a collectors’ item.
The number of people that volunteered to help out in the office was also significant: I could pick the best ones.

Giving permission to yourself to feel what you REALLY feel is strong medicine
We live in a “fix-it” culture. Doctors, chiropractors, coaches, husbands, parents (especially mothers) are all about fixing what’s wrong with you. No wonder that you relate to everything that is going on with you as something to fix.
What is part of the “fix-it” culture, and is hidden behind it, but gives it the context, is that what is going on is INTOLERABLE, and MUST BE FIXED.
It feels like an imperative… like a straightjacket.
What is the problem with fixing stuff?
Let’s look at the action of fixing from a different point of view: what is your cone of vision when you are looking to fix something?
Narrow.

Financial Freedom: Why Context is decisive, or why your gurus are fake, why they are miserable, and why what they teach is crapOne can get caught up in the “money game” on any levels of income. You can even get hooked in its tangles before you make any decision about what to do with your life… as in inherited from your parents, or getting hooked on the perks money gave you through stuff your parents bought you.
No matter when and how you got hooked, you can unhook yourself and be financially free.
What does “financially free” mean?

People need leaders. Need leadership.
“Most people spend their lives walking around with their umbilical cords in their hands, looking for someplace to plug in.”
Life for a human needs to make sense. It needs to have a coherent story to make sense. Life without a coherent story has no meaning, and a life without meaning is unbearable, intolerable.
People (you?) are in a continual search for meaning.
Meaning that changes with what’s happening is maddening, and confusing, and cause you to shrink. Instinctively and predictably. So REAL meaning cannot come from the outside…

Mistakes… what causes them?Today is a day when I am mistake-prone. The source of 99% of all my mistakes have been caused by a phenomenon that I see in everyone I speak with… so I am not alone.
The biggest difference between different people is only the frequency with which the incidents occur, no one is immune to this mistake. Continue reading “Life is getting faster. Are you getting faster or hastier?”
