I’ll teach this until I am satisfied that the method the way I teach it works…
We have had, over the years, results all over the board: some came away moved to tears, some came away and quit coaching… lol Why? The workshop brings up what you have been desperately trying to hide. I teach that in another course… what you are trying to hide.

I have written about it, I have even quoted Lao Tsu: Because of great love one is courageous. Lao Tsu taught effortless action, which is in line with Life, he calls Tao.
But if the fundamental understanding of life is missing, if life is fundamentally misunderstood, then that quote is misunderstood.
We, humans, have that ‘love is something you feel for another person’. Or for ice cream, or a puppy… more often, lol.
But what if the love Lao Tsu is talking about is something entirely different?

The goal of this article is to show you why you haven’t been able to grow, and how to unstuck yourself: a new methodology.
The size of your projects is the size of your life. Your New Year’s resolution is a project. big or small shows the size of your life.
If you are not working on it, it is not a project. For it to be a project, you need to work on it. Otherwise it is just a fantasy.
The size of the people your project helps is the size of your world.
Giving away money that you didn’t earn isn’t a project.
Yesterday we had the 3-wishes workshop. It’s a fun little exercise. But we didn’t do it for fun. Most fun exercises have hidden huge learnings: about you, about the size of your world and the size of your life.
What does it have to do with a New year resolution? Patience, I’ll make them connect later. First you want to look at the ingredients… there are no jumps in reality, and when you jump, you do that in your imagination, and your results will be also in your imagination, not in reality… How is that for a learning, learning why your New Year Resolutions haven’t panned out thus far… You did jumps in it.
Projects are like building a ladder and climbing it to the fulfillment… not a jump. Continue reading “How to make New Year’s Resolutions succeed? of how to unstuck yourself for good?”
The art of being heard, being known the right wayOn one of the webinars the topic was “Not being heard… Being misunderstood”
Every person on the call had at least one painful childhood incident where their speaking wasn’t getting for them what they intended to get, instead their speaking was earning them grief and heart ache.
They wanted appreciation, understanding, equality, or love, validation, significance, or at least agreement.
When something doesn’t work, one would expect, next time you’ll try something different. But no… in real life it seems that the more something doesn’t work, the more you, humans are trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
When we looked, each and every one of us were repeating and repeating and repeating the incident in our lives, the same way, expecting a different result. Insanity, right? Continue reading “Always misjudged, misunderstood? No one sees your genius?”
The world is mundane. Ordinary. At least through ordinary eyes. It is just the way it is.
Some people see beauty, some people see truth, some people see goodness, but for the most part you see reasons to justify why you only trudge through life, never really seeing any poetry, any romance, anything really uplifting.
You cry, you laugh, you shut up… words don’t come close to express it.
When I work with people on their life’s purpose, on the meaning of their lives, especially when I do it in a private call, I need to work a lot.
When I speak your purpose, as I see it, I hear you being hooked, being moved. Then you get off the call, and turn it into mundane… money, sex, or such other stuff, that makes life and you stuck in the mud. Continue reading “A life worth living: What does poetry have to do with it?”
I am 70 years old… or to be exact, will be in two more months.
The biggest concern for older people is falling. Falling and not be able to get up. Or break a bone. My sister in law broke her thigh bone…
So many communities across the United States offer free exercise classes to older people to make us more self-reliant and not fall easily.
The exercises are directed at strengthening the core and the leg muscles.
I am mentioning this, because the work of becoming a human being needs a strong core. Otherwise one may get dizzy, scared, or fall.
Just like in real life.
What keeps you from having a strong core?
I can feel the wind, but I am not the wind. I can hear the voices and I am not the voices.
The above is a quote from one of my students who has raised his vibration, even though his soul correction is one of the difficult five.
Thinking that the voices are significant, engaging with the voices makes us schizophrenic, as if we were many people.
Thoughts, voices, are like the wind. If you start to listening to the wind as if it talked to you, you go crazy. The wind takes over your life, starts running your life, and you go crazy.
The wind whispers, the wind sings. It has nothing to do with you. And so is with all the thoughts.
Wanting life to be different than it is.
No one can promise you an easy life. No such thing.
The only authentic promise anyone can make is make you a match to life.

First: Heartmath has a theory, that the heart has a lot of brain cells in it and they can be influenced just like the brain can be…
The promise is of Heartmath is to help you calm down and handle life’s stresses better at will.
I first heard of and listened to recordings, exercises from the Heartmath Institute around 2003. I found the idea very seductive, and really wanted it to work for me… but it didn’t. When a few years later Dr. Alex Loyd used them to prove that the Healing Codes work I revisited them… and found the methodology still not working.
The truth is: they are both, the Healing Codes and the Heartmath, a nice idea… but neither of them works reliably, consistently, and for anyone. If something is NOT reliable, NOT consistent, then in essence it doesn’t work… what works is the Placebo effect.
I am not discounting the Placebo effect: it is powerful, but it is used to sell snake oil…

Who or What is calling the shot in your life? Commitment – new thoughts, new experiences
This is a continuation of the c-word article… and the getting ready for a breakthrough article. Read them first or this article won’t make sense completely
As I have written before, the “universe” or the aspect of you that conspires and is in cahoots with the Universe, will put up obstacles in your path, so instead of doing stuff that’s consistent with your commitment, you are now on a detour path: handling your obstacles.
Alex, a friend of mine, is dealing with his server and his websites being hacked… a moment after he made a commitment to growth. So he feels forced to deal with that, instead of following the path he set for himself.

Landmark Education was born in 1991. With its name change it also, appropriately, introduced a “new technology”.
The new technology was based on an earlier statement or assertion: that who you are in the present is given by the future you are living into.
It was also said like this: What gives you who you are in the present moment is the future you are living into.
But, although they were illustrating this assertion with a story 1 , what they meant was this: what gives your being and consequently your actions in the present moment is who you invented yourself to be.
Let’s say you invent yourself to be a winner… what give your being and consequently your actions in the present, that no matter what you do, you’ll at least end up landing on your feet… and that makes you, automatically, a winner. And some of the time you’ll win more than just your safety or your life… you may win some stuff, some arguments, etc.
