The allure of what vs. the how. Scarcity vs abundance

Your vocabulary, the number and the kind of words you use, is a dead giveaway of the level of your spiritual evolution… simply put your vibrational frequency.

If I could not measure your spiritual/consciousness level accurately other ways, I would use your vocabulary number to tell you what is your spiritual vibration, what is your level of consciousness.

How? What? Are you kidding Sophie? Continue reading “The allure of what vs. the how. Scarcity vs abundance”

What are the most typical signs of stupid… aka low or no intelligence?

First off, what do I consider intelligent?

Intelligent, if you look, has a certain appropriateness. Flow. Fitting. Maybe even elegance. Maybe even grace and ease. Workability. Life working.

Nowadays we hear a lot about AI, artificial intelligence chatbots. Notice that they don’t call it artificial smarts… It’s intelligence. Continue reading “What are the most typical signs of low or no intelligence?”

This is the way the cookie crumbles… Really

This is the way the cookie crumbles: your life, the quality of your life depends on you.

I’ve read somewhere that people are only curious about something they already know. Not ‘know about’ but actually know. Had experience with.

Knowing about is idle curiosity: useless.

You don’t know the river until you wade into it.
You don’t know a person unless you wade in and deal with him.
And you don’t know a poem until you try to say it out loud.

I don’t believe in the Law of Attraction.

If I could stand on the rooftop and yell it to every person who visits my site, I would have a mailing list that has eliminated the weak, the slothful, the unable to think for themselves crowd.

So, what is the ‘famous’ law of attraction myth and what are the common characteristics of the people who believe in it?

In the New Thought philosophy, the law of attraction is the belief that by focusing on positive or negative thoughts a person brings positive or negative experiences into their life. The teaching is based upon the idea that people and their thoughts are both made from ‘pure energy’, and that through the process of ‘like energy attracting like energy’ a person can improve their own health, wealth and personal relationships.

The concept of law of attraction received criticism in skeptical essays, such as Robert Todd Carroll’s The Skeptic’s Dictionary.

Law of attraction is an example of a pseudoscience.

Rooted in reality, un-self-concerned, learning as you go

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Some of the most important things I say in my Friday Podcast.

It’s not planned. And it is not being stingy. It is because until I see it I can’t see it.

What is special about that every Friday call is that the person I do it with doesn’t want to be coached. So I coach through her all the people who subscribe to the podcast.

Some of them don’t want to be coached either. But the ones that do get a great deal. Continue reading “Rooted in reality, un-self-concerned, learning as you go”

The all-or-nothing attitude (Gentian). The ‘I will always/I will never’ attitude.

We have been working with the machine. The machine we all live in. It is alive… and yet it’s a machine.

This, the self-sabotaging Gentian attitude is the most frequent move of the machine. Continue reading “Dynamics of self-sabotage: I will always I will never”

My soul correction (Forget Thyself) is hasty. Jumping in, and making mistakes, getting in a mess, scrambling to get out.

Nowadays that we are hunting for the should shouldn’t spouting little voice, I am forced to realize that for me it is not words… it is a push. Or is it a pull?

I am also seeing that many of may I hate that come from that push

So let’s hunt for some hates… and let’s see if this is personal to me, or across the field. Please, I will need your feedback.

There are a few things I can’t tolerate, would not tolerate. Continue reading “How you can go from being a rough diamond to finely cut gem”

Have the ‘why bother?’ attitude? A Big C symptom

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

I overslept this morning. Whenever you oversleep, or allow comfort to set in, something sinister happens in the invisible.

Your brain takes your behavior as an instruction that you want to practice for death.

You could call it hibernation, but it is only hibernation if that is what you meant to do. Otherwise it is the state where there is no future.

The first signs are hopelessness. There is no hope. There is no future. Just blah. Continue reading “Have the ‘why bother?’ attitude? A Big C symptom”

How do you think of yourself less? your about-me score

How do you think of yourself less?

What does that mean? Thinking of others? By becoming a do-gooder?

OK, I am going to clarify something. Something that myself don’t quite know how it works, and why it works that way.

So it may come out incomprehensible, botched up, and useless. But, in my view, it is worth to try…

Note: if you only read one example, make it #5!

OK, the issue: one of the measurements is to what degree your life is about you and your life… the words I use I borrowed from someone else… True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less. and the words are ‘to what degree you think of yourself’… as a measure of humility i.e. how much room you have to learn and grow, how much room you have for the world, for work, for life… for others.

Your life is like a boat. It is driven by the drift 99%

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Every learning is becoming. Every action that is aimed at learning but doesn’t lead to becoming… is not learning, it is just a pretense. Treading water. The drift.

But becoming is not easy, and it takes longer than you would expect. OK, longer than I expect. Longer than I have been expecting 🙁

Why? because some of the learning requires you to be right there, ready for that particular learning. You first need to become ready.
