Become all you can become with SophieHe that won't be counselled, can't be helped
Everyone can get to the good life, but not everyone will get to the good life. Why? Because not everyone is willing to do what they need to do to get to the good life.
Tai Lopez said that. What he didn’t say: you need to go beyond where you are comfortable, so you’ll need a second wind.
And it is true on certain conditions. Continue reading “Second Wind: Abilities or effort? The role of effort”
What is learning? (If in spite of all your efforts to learn, change, become a winner, you haven’t succeeded, this is an article you need to read! You’ll find out why nothing has worked… )
There are two kinds of “learning”,
If you were good in school, then you were probably good in the first kind… live in your mind, in a narrow cone of vision way. You do life the same way… because how you do anything is how you do everything…
Your vibration is really low, even though you think you are really smart.
But vibration is most correlated with how wide your cone of vision is, how many questions you ask, how much you see.

What is the bane of your existence? What kills your life? Your joy, your fulfillment, the love in your heart?
It is everyday arrogance.
What is everyday arrogance? It is simple, and so everywhere, all the time, that it is invisible.
You see something. You hear something. And you know what it means. Continue reading “What is the bane of your existence? What kills your joy?”
The 67 steps spiral… second take… I am at step two… and can see the territory I have covered.
There are a few incredibly useful distinctions in the 67 step program.
Of course, if you listen to the audios through the filter: true/false, right/wrong, agree/don’t agree, you’ll miss them all.
And it’s a pity.
How do I listen? I have said it before: I listen in theta mode… i.e. as if I were taking a shower. I get wet.

When you ask the question why you are reading my articles, your answer will be saying what you want.
More, better, different.
You may say: you want to raise your vibration, so you can have more, better, or different. What…
You may be prepared to do different, maybe even more, but you surely aren’t thinking that it is NOT what you do, it is how you do it.
When I talk about beingness… you think it’s a what. But it’s a how.
When I say “love,” you hear “what”. but I mean “how”. When I say generous, you hear “ugh, I have to give” which is a what, while generous is a how.

If you go about it the same way you have always gone, you’ll get the same results: not much.
I just got an insight I want to share.
There are all kinds of valid sayings that, as it turns out, only tell half truths.
If you do what you have always done… you’ll get what you have always gotten. Meaning: do something different.
But when you do something different, you get the same dismal result.
So what they are missing is the how.
The how, interestingly, points to your beingness. To your approach, not only to the task, but to life.
Because, please don’t forget, how you do anything is how you do everything.

This past week I had a lot of interactions: a lot more than usual.
I had calls, where the other person, from time to time, got hold of the steering wheel… and it felt dangerous for me of losing control or the conversation.
I also had to cancel some utilities and restart them with a different provider.
The bad cell phone connection, the voice mail systems, the operators that talk without listening, like a machine, the hold-music… all factors that could be causing me to lose myself.
Loud TV, a typical marketeer loud forceful audio on the computer, peak traffic, noises, bumping into carts in the grocery store… all tearing at you, wanting attention.
Continue reading “If you feel you are losing yourself, maybe lost yourself…”
I am watching Person of Interest for the second time on Netflix. I argue, I get angry, hateful, steaming… I criticize, a am sad, depressed, in total reaction mode.
I am watching the “bad guy” calm, collected, emotionless, calculated, for years working patiently and methodically towards the success of the Dark Side.
Hm, the good side is losing, and the dark side us unstoppable.
And then I see it.

It’s a behavior we mostly only know as “missing” in others.
We see what others don’t do… and we complain.
We rarely see ourselves not doing a complete and thorough job.
Why? Because doing a complete and thorough job means going outside the narrow swath our cone of vision lights up.
Even when someone gives us feedback, we consider it their problem…
Here is a positive example:

This article has three parts: truth in science, truth in growth, and truth in hindsight…
There are two ways to “do” science:
