Non-physical pain... or pleasant feelings... explains nearly everything you do

This article is dangerously personal...

Last night I watched a movie, Children of Men.

I remember seeing the trailer 10 years ago when it was a new movie. Then I never heard of it again until yesterday. That it is an accurate showing of where we are heading and where we already are.

I didn"t have anything else to go on, so I watched the movie almost till the last five-ten minutes not knowing what I was "supposed" to feel.

The reality it shows is horrid. Not supported with any emotions, any feelings whatsoever. So it made no sense to me. Why are these people killing each other?

But in the end the movie showed something it was worth watching for: men bowing to, in wonder, being uplifted by Life.

Feelings are running you. Do you have a handle on your feelings?

Needs are feelings. They run you, from the inside. Need is a feeling... and it can be on many levels.

Animals have needs. Human have the same needs, and more.

Depending on how many needs you have, you are on different evolutionary levels of humanity.

In this article we"ll need with the two needs where most get stuck: the needs of the self. These are non-physical needs, resulting in non-physical pain if not met, and pleasure if they are met.

So let"s begin.

I have always wondered why it is that only people who commit to something and then work on it are ever happy.

I could not explain it with the limited knowledge I"ve had... but this is changing.

Is antisemitism, racism, prejudice OK?

I am having an interesting issue to ponder. Maybe you can ponder with me?

The guy whose writing I am so taken with, his books, the Hungarian guy, according to my muscle test has a prejudice against Jews.

In common parlance, he is antisemitic.

Nothing special there, a full 30% of the developed countries" population is antisemitic and 70% of the Hungarian population. 1.4% of Hungary"s population is Jewish. A total of about 140,000 people. Before the Holocaust the number was 900,000. 14.31 million worldwide, or 0.2 percent. Or two people in every thousand people.

If you are part of a minority against whom there can be or are negative prejudices, a Jew, Black, Moslem, Indian, Chinese... you"ll have this issue as a daily, in the background and maybe even in the foreground conversation.

Growth is like chocolate working out the lumps by itself

How to grow...I dreamed it. Or rather I was kept up by it...I dreamed BEING chocolate... Working out all the bumps and unevenness... And I knew what it meant.

Then I got up... ran to my computer to write it down, because it is so important... By now it is almost like an unreal memory... But this is how much I could capture for you:

The way to grow and growing into excellent is to keep making parts of you better, until there is nothing to make better. Even and smooth like chocolate.

I don"t procrastinate.

I learned a new method of finding and following a mentor. You want to learn something, improve something, get something done. You find someone who can do what you can"t yet do. The link will be good till January 5 only...
You use the "compare and join" method: you compare what they do or how they do it, and find ONE THING that they do better to produce better results. You "join" them in doing that...

I don"t procrastinate. You could join me in that.

What? Procrastination is so "normal" that not procrastinating can put you into the mad-house... involuntary hospitalization. lol.

There is reality, and then there is the map of reality...

Kamikaze or the Cowardly Lion
New distinction: there is reality, and then there is the map of reality ((in your nervous system, feelings and the word level thinking (symbols and marker feeling) )).

If this sounds complicated, it is because it is.

But it is built of simple linear elements, so we can look at each linear element, and with enough examined, start seeing the three-dimensional picture.
Your map of reality is vastly out of alignment with the actual reality.

On Venus, Have We Got a Rabbi!

A long-lost space age satire about what it means to be a Jew from one of science fiction’s greatest humorists

By William Tenn

The story you are about to read was almost never written. By the early 1970s, one of America’s greatest science-fiction satirists had all but retired. After a celebrated literary career under the pen name of William Tenn, London-born Jewish author Philip Klass had hung up his pseudonym and settled in as a professor of English at Penn State University. That is, until he had a chance encounter with some young fans at a science-fiction convention in 1973.

“They asked me why I wasn’t still writing,” Klass recalled. He responded that teaching was its own satisfaction, and that “there was not much market for the fiction I wanted to write these days, especially for a specific story whose title was all I had but which had been on my mind for many months.” Klass told them the name, sure that it was a nonstarter. But as luck would have it, one of the fans was planning a collection of Jewish science fiction—and so “On Venus, Have We Got a Rabbi,” William Tenn’s final story, was commissioned.

Do you want to be a Jew?

I want to tell you a little story... because it"s been on my mind for a while, and I need to get it off my chest.

YOU don"t need it. You really don"t want to hear it, because you won"t like what it says about you.

So, it"s OK if you click off now. Good. Now I am alone with the handful of people who want to hear what I have to say. Because it is what makes us this little group of... Jews?

Funny, eh? Let me explain.

Long time ago, over the seas, and the mountains, a little old man, called God was in search of some people. Some people who would take it on themselves to run an experiment, much like the first fish that climbed on dry land.

So this little old man name God went from country to country, from town to town, village to village. He must have visited thousands of groups of people. The conversation always went the same way:

He (God) asked: would you be willing to follow my rules for living if I offered you to be the chosen people with unlimited wisdom, prosperity, and the key to The Kingdom?

They (the people): What are the rules?

So the little man (God), knowing the answers already, started to say:

You shall have no other gods before Me.
You shall not make idols.
You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Honor your father and your mother.
You shall not murder.
You shall not commit adultery.

This was the point where 99% of the groups he asked said: No way... The one percent got hung up on the next line: You shall not steal.

God was at his wits" end. No one was willing to participate in his experiment.

At this point he got to this narrow strip of land on the Mediterranean Sea, and found this people, shepherds. He asked them too: Would you be willing to follow my rules for living if I offered you to be the chosen people with unlimited wisdom, prosperity, and the key to The Kingdom?

The men asked: What are the rules?

The little man has already lost hope, but dutifully answered: (I am using an abbreviated version of the rules... )

You shall have no other gods before Me.
You shall not make idols.
You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Honor your father and your mother.
You shall not murder.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet.

The men asked for a day or two, to discuss it between themselves. And at the end of the second day they said: We"ll do it.


What the old man didn"t say is this: Are you willing to do this, in spite of all the hatred, envy, jealousy, murderous violent anger your learnedness, your knowledge, your faithfulness, your excellence will trigger in all the peoples of Earth?

He didn"t know. That was something he did not calculate for. He didn"t calculate that for the slothful, the most abominable sight is the sight of a diligent person.

Who are your customers? You don"t have any? Think again!

You have customers. Many. You have "vendor-customer" relationship with them.

It takes intellectual intelligence (the one the IQ tests test) to see this. It has nothing to do with being stingy, or emotionally unevolved.

So let"s have this conversation now to cause a sudden rise in your intelligence, and potentially a sudden rise in your income, your popularity, your street value.

The story behind this knowledge comes from 1991-1992.

He sold the company to its employees, and the company faltered.

More on customer service

Customer service comes from the heart afwj from Lyndon Seno
and an article:

 
Who your customer really is
Perhaps you think that the people who have direct contact with actual paying customers or clients are the only ones who need to consider service. You, as someone who deals purely with people inside the company, are not a giver of service and do not have customers yourself. What about the person from credit control who needs you to get a copy of a customer’s invoice for her? Or the person who does your books who needs you to keep your receipts in some kind of order?

People you deal with inside the organisation are your customers too - internal, rather than external customers, but still deserving of the same consideration and care.

The external customers are the people who buy your goods and services and who make pay day possible.

The internal customers are the people with whom you work inside your company, the people who pull together as a team to deliver the product or service required by the external customer.
What your customer expects
Although service is difficult to define, we can still say what it is that the customer wants from a transaction. Think about it for yourself - put yourself in the shoes of a customer of yours, or think of a time when you, as a customer contacted an organisation. You might like to make a list and see how it compares with the one below.

The customer wants:

someone who will listen;
someone who will solve their problem; and,
someone who will do what they say they will.

Or, to put it another way, the customer wants to speak to someone who is:



Courteous
Friendly


Understanding
Informal


Sincere
Responsive


Tolerant
Smiling


Open-minded
Truthful


Motivated



Empathetic



Reliable




There are other things you may have put - accepting, non-judgemental, trustworthy, professional - and these are equally valid points. Lists like this grow longer the more time you spend thinking about them. What you can’t do is to put these points into an order of importance - that depends on your customer. Remember, too, that customers are neither aware of, nor interested in, how many other customers there are or how busy you may be. As far as they are concerned, you have one customer and one problem with which to deal!
Benefits of good service
If, as service givers, we deal with our customers effectively and efficiently, the company will benefit in a number of areas:

the cost of solving problems that occur will be minimised;
money owed to the company may be collected quickly;
a relationship is developed between the company and the customer;
the possibility of supplying additional products and services is opened up; and,
it introduces the customer to an area of the company other than sales.

Distinctions are like the dots in a digitized photograph. The more dots you have the clearer the picture.

In printing they call this the resolution, or dot per inch. Different papers allow for different number of dots.

Your attitude, your innate intelligence, your emphasis on the mind can increase or decrease the number of dots you can take and reproduce without distortion.

In the previous article I demonstrated how Esther Hicks can only reproduce the largest letters, but not the spirit of the Emotional Guidance System.

And she isn"t towards the bottom of the pile. There is some intelligence there.

Is there an emotional guidance system the way Esther Hicks teaches it?

Let"s consider the possibility that Esther Hicks indeed is connected to some knowledge, some energy, and attempts to translate it to "English". Meaning symbols... words.

Given her level of consciousness, her level of vibration (170), her level of accurate knowledge of how things work (3% accuracy), wisdom would have to get lost in the translation.

I have a personal example of what happens. In 1973 or so, I had a live-in boy friend who was writing his dissertation for his degree. He was a Philosophy major.

He wrote about Hegel, a German Philosopher.

I was a good typist, so I volunteered to type up his thesis as he was writing it. He would write at night, I would type up the previous night"s portion in the evening.

Dethroning the mind... not a minute too early.

I have muscle tested dozens of teachers that teach or have taught the power of your mind religion. They are all miserable and wretched. Low vibration, inner disharmony, incoherence.

If the teachers that teach it can"t make it work for them, probably it is time for you to decide that it doesn"t work. That it"s junk science. A lie. Fraud. Deception. Tool to enslave humanity... successfully enslave it, so far.

Humanity as humanoids is about 200,000 years old.

Life has been largely the life of little kids, who are afraid of some god and some devil and of their own shadow.

Because humanity"s knowledge about what is behind the curtain has been faulty.

And faulty is a lot like Iatrogenic illnesses: the fault will kill you. And it has. Made humanity fat, made humanity stupid, and has given the power over to what makes us descend to hell.

Almost everything you find on the internet has hidden agendas

But this hidden agenda, to profit from every interaction, at your expense is not limited to the internet, it is just easier to see the dynamic there. It is harder to see it in person to person interactions, with every single person you interact with, or in books, articles, organizations, charity, politics, or people and their pets.

And it is hardest to see in yourself.

I am not condemning it: it seems that "desire for the self alone" is having a new renaissance, and you either don"t notice it, or are in a conspiracy for "I won"t tell on you, if you won"t tell on me."

I am a person who is well trained to help people create a context for their lives, for their relationships, for their businesses... a context, words, a speaking that sells the attractive part (bait) and hides the sinister. It is a misuse of my training and talent, but it is a possible use.

Distaste: the orienting feeling that you want to observe in yourself to learn about yourself

We all want to learn about ourselves... Knowledge is power. Understanding allows us to make sense of why things happen the way they do.

We are going to learn a new word that expresses a feeling that has been collapsed, confused with others... to take away our clarity.

One of the gems I"ve mined from the book "Feelings" ((From Amazon, by the author: On feelings, in a completely different way…
The fact that I can explain why Phineas P Gage used foul language may be interesting only to a few neurologists or psychologists at best.

My statement that Descartes’s famous saying “Cogito ergo sum”, i.e. “I think, therefore I am” should be modified to “Sentio ergo sum”, i.e. “I feel, therefore I am” will give a real headache only to a few philosophers.

“Okay, but then why should simple mortals read this book?” you may ask.
Because it can help you find your way in the world, one of the many individual worlds, but the only world that exists for you as well: the world of feelings – the world of your feelings.)) is isolating a particular feeling, the orienting feeling of distaste.

Distaste has wide range. What is common in any range is a slight desire to vomit. You feel it going from the stomach to the throat and back.

That is the essence of distaste? It is a feeling that indicates: purge because it is not good for you. Whatever the "it" is...

Working on the thing you want, directly, is a mistake...

The same faulty thinking, the same thinking that makes you not do things that don"t directly produce money, or the results you seek, the same thinking that makes you a chef with no food in the pantry, is what keeps your relationships empty, and causes your vibration to remain low.

I was just looking at a post of mine: an Osho talk.

It triggered a distaste in my mouth. I published that article and I am suddenly knocking it? WTF, right?
But there is a reason... I have changed. I see things that even just a week ago could not see

Are you eating the babies of another species?

One of the areas where humanity is growing and evolving backwards is eating.

When you eat right, your vibration goes up and you are a hell of a lot more intelligent.

But eating right requires you to have knowledge. Knowledge that you don"t have.

One thing I have noticed that you think:

if it is edible then it is ok to eat. As much as I want.

...or if you have your food list: if it is edible, I can eat the edible foods in any combination, and in any quantity.

And if you think that, and if that thinking reflects your behavior, your vibration is going lower.

It is all about the purpose of life... and the purposelessness of life, if you wish.

Your answer will depend on where you"re looking from.

In the movie, once both the hunter and the tiger lost their progeny, their offspring, and their hopes for the survival of their genes ended, they are both ready to die themselves. The purpose of life ended with the loss of their offspring.

Cooking from recipes... or being a master chef... a huge life lesson

I watched some instructive videos of a guy who is making a living publishing books that he only compiled. Cookbooks, mainly. Recipe books.

I have been anguished by the inability of my clients to use their food list and make it fully satisfying... Result: their well being plateaus at 20-30%, while mine is 70%.

I saw an article that suggests that following recipes is way inferior to knowing how to cook, knowing the patterns, the principles, the methods, the science and the art of preparing food.

Preparing food and your relationship to it is a how, not a what. And how you do anything is how you do everything, remember?

If your relationship to food, preparation, cooking is in one way, we"ll find the same thing in other areas of life. So pay close attention: this can be life altering.

Cooking the Food System We Want

article is from https://medium.com/the-future-market/cooking-jazz-not-classical-490eb9b77d8#.pjxql3r17

The Future of Food depends on our society’s ability and will to cook. Doing so rewards us in the short term with nourishment, and in the long term leads to us becoming a more informed and engaged food public.

If we as a society want to advocate for a certain type of food system, we can’t get there by ceding the knowledge gained through cooking to the packaged food companies and chefs who we’ve outsourced our diets to. To engage with the food system at large, we need to cook.

There are few things in life that we consume that we can also create with relative ease. We consume music, but how many of us are songwriters? We consume apps, but how many of us can code? The learning curve for assembling a home cooked meal is comparatively low, yet the rewards of knowledge over time are incredibly high.

Display and existence. These are two Landmark distinctions.

As I am looking at my students, the biggest missing is not intelligence, not diligence, it is these two distinctions.

I am still doing the preparation series for the mapping your life, or lifemapping workshop: I want you to come and do the work, instead of listening to me doing teaching.

Every learning is 5% input, and 95% you doing what you need to do, practicing it, using it, putting it into action.

The crash and burn style of life... are you guilty of it?

The hardest thing for people is to find the middle ground, the sustainable, the mean. The smooth. The life they claim they want. Everyone, on and off the internet, is trying to monopolize your time.

It is a lot like walking on a rope... any movement, leaning to the left immediately needs to be balanced to the right.

In rope dancing the consequences are clear and immediate.

In plate spinning: the consequences are clear and immediate.

In life, even in business, the consequences are removed, timewise, and unless you are astute with a very wide cone of vision, you don"t know what you are causing with each and every movement you make...

If you wanted to change... if you actually wanted to change... so your life can change too... where would you make the change?

I just had a conversation with one of my students who shows promise to be able to change.


On a side note: where do I look when I assess who will change and who will not?

I will look at two places:

1. do they argue or offer explanations or excuses when they get feedback from me. Argument, explanations, and excuses are the sign of a foolish person who won"t take feedback, and either won"t change, or will do it to either curry approval from you, or to prove you wrong.
2. An immediate testing tool is the 5-question exercise. If they do it, that is a very good sign that they will be willing to change.


The conversation was about how to behave, what to do when you notice mistakes, mistakes YOU make.
Mistakes are like the fruit on the fruit bearing tree. Symptoms. Show what kind of tree you have...

Weirdness Factor

Only one student whose mother tongue is not English interpreted weirdness correctly.

What the f... right? Compared to what?!

You think that you know English. But your English is a personal English... what you mean is not expressed by the words you use accurately, and what you read is not what the writer of a sentence meant.
So you see, with words being such a flimsy, unreliable vehicle for thinking and communicating, the world cannot be a better place.
The troubles in your life cannot be fixed with the language that created them. ((All sages, Sun Tzu, Lao Tzu, etc. emphasized the how... but people can only hear the what. No one, to the best of my knowledge, has ever attempted to teach humans to pay attention and to hear the how.))

The ape uses all his faculties in his day to day life.

His brain makes it able to see and recognize things and not others. Causality, that is based on doing things, is weak or not evolved in the ape"s brain. It cannot easily make concerned decisions about things that weren"t part of an ape life for ten thousand generations.

I haven"t often experienced this before...

I had a real hard time learning Arabic. Danish was another challenge.

Then I had an impossible time learning basic programming: I had to do the class three times to get it.

The allure of what vs. the how that is the difference between misery and 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 it accurately other ways, I would use that to tell you what is your spiritual vibration, your level of consciousness.

How? What? Are you kidding Sophie?

No, I am not kidding.

You have a billion words for "what"... much like apes, by the way... and only a few, imprecise words for "how". How words are adverbs...

The Second Phase Activators Course or what does cancer have to do with your how?

Human DNA has 160 spiritual capacities hard-coded. These are the capacities that can and hopefully will take humanity to the "human being" level, (and beyond,) where beingness causes action, not greed and other survival energies. At present there are eight individuals on the human being level on the planet. I don"t know who they are... I know I am one of the eight. You need 60 active spiritual capacities to be on that level.

80 of these capacities is activated in the Second Phase Activator Course.

A "normal" human has 2-5 spiritual capacities active, helping them to grow, make money, get along with others and themselves. Be healthy, be wise, be happy. 2-5 is mighty few...

The Starting Point measurements include this measure: how many of the 160 spiritual capacities you have active. And often someone asks me to pay to tell them what capacities they have active.

I never do it... because it"s useless, gossipy knowledge, a way to lord over other people.

I need your help... I am undecided

The 67 steps coaching is a really good program, but I have a few people who bought it and it is not a good match for them. They are not doing the work.

I am looking at some options:

1. let them go
2. offer them something that has proven itself to create amazing results and transfer their subscription and coaching to that.

What am I talking about? What is the "thing" that has proven itself to create amazing results?

Four years ago I created and ran a program, called the Second Phase Activators.

It ran, if I remember correctly, for 20 weeks... Four sessions a week.

People who graduated from it have such a solid foundation, spiritual foundation, that I can count on them to bounce back from any adversity.

Why? How?

Your life expectancy and your vibration are connected, but how?

I don"t know about you, but I have always thought that my food should be my medicine, and my medicine should be my food.

And this is mostly how it was for our ancestors... or more precisely: the more their food provided enough nutrients the more our ancestors thrived.

And the same is true for animals. People who raise animals, or take care of animals for a living, for their livelihood, know this.

Animals need nutrients they cannot always find in the right combination in nature... and they get sick or they die.

It makes economical (money) sense to keep the animals healthy: no money in a sick or dead animal...

I have learned this more than 20 years ago.

Then it took me 20 years to really do enough about it for it to matter for my own health.

The politically incorrect path to happiness

I popped out of bed this morning. I got a glimpse of something. I don"t know what I saw, because it went by so fast, but it was enough to shoot me out of bed.

Urgency. I am driving my life... and sleeping is almost like I am snoozing in the back of the bus.

This whole idea that you are in the driving seat of your life should hit you as a surprise. Why? Because if and when I observe your behavior, your attitude, it doesn"t look to me that you know it.
This is a long article. Be willing to read it, be willing to be lead to the conclusion. If you jump, you"ll miss the point.
Your hands are not on the steering wheel... you are not pressing the gas pedal, you are in passenger mode, exploring the onboard entertainment, and complain, occasionally about the onboard food, the onboard beverages... unaware that you actually allow the automatic pilot to go wherever it is going...

The habit of reading, nodding, and moving on...

Talk about useless activity! Tree of Knowledge, mind candy, justifying self... all the bad stuff. Bad for you... keeping you exactly where you are... and if that is a bad place... then it keeps you firmly anchored to that bad place.

And it is the overwhelming habit of readers of my site.

But to make it even worse: it is the habit of some of my 67 step students.

Useless, waste of time, unless all you want is entertainment. Then I understand.

So if you actually wanted, what you read/listen to, to make a difference for you, what should you do?


What is the habit of achievers as opposed to you?
Achievers are not interested in mind candy. Achievers are always looking to benefit from what they invest time in: reading an article, or watching a video.

The way they do it is
They map what they hear on themselves, on their lives, on their business, on issues they may face.
This is step one.

Which means: they don"t bring an ordinary listening to things: they listen FOR finding out more, so they can grow from what they hear.

Obviously, if you have a gossipy interest in what you are reading: you are listening FOR gossip, for titillation, for curiosity, for extraordinary.
Little minds are interested in the extraordinary; great minds in the commonplace.
If you are a "little mind", you know it.

Another way to see it is through this quote:

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.

99% of the visitors of this site come to find out and talk about people... My vibrational reviews simply backfired... because I really have nothing to say to small minds... I don"t even have to say anything to average minds.

So people self-select... 99% leave, 1% remain. 1% of the 1% is a good fit for this kind of work.

That is about one new person every 2-3 months.
So what else do achievers do when they read something or watch a video?
They, the achievers, if they find the information a good match to what they are dealing with, they pick out one action, and they decide to do that. If they are really smart: they write it down. And if they border being a genius, they schedule it.

This is the third way you know you are an underachiever if you don"t even have a place to schedule... you live life without a compass, with vague yearnings.

In the 67 step program people are "forced" to look at their own lives, and answer some crucial questions.

It"s not an accident that those questions are there. Whether they are good questions or not: we can argue about that. But just make sure you are not turning your life-altering course into cheap entertainment.
Unless you do something every step, you"ll never grow.
It doesn"t have to be an earth shattering action, it just has to be something.
The Destiny Map no one is willing to make for themselves
For example, in one of the steps there is a method introduced to find out what would be a good area, a good direction for you to push your life, given the

Context is decisive... or why your dreams only exist in words... not in reality

You have freedom to create any context you wish. There are only two kinds of contexts:

1. Empowering Context
2. Disempowering Context

Empowering means, simply, that it gives you power to go in the direction you meant to go. It is like the wind behind your back.

Disempowering, as in anything negative, what takes you off your path, hinders you, takes your power away, makes you doubt, etc.
The Anna Karenina principle ((The Anna Karenina principle describes an endeavor in which a deficiency in any one of a number of factors dooms it to failure. Consequently, a successful endeavor (subject to this principle) is one where every possible deficiency has been avoided.

The name of the principle derives from Leo Tolstoy"s book Anna Karenina, which begins:

Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.

In other words: in order to be happy, a family must be successful on each and every one of a range of criteria e.g: sexual attraction, money issues, parenting, religion, in-laws. Failure on only one of these counts leads to unhappiness. Thus there are more ways for a family to be unhappy than happy.)) applies here:
Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.

What life did you choose in the first hour of your day? The Backdrop

Every day works best if and when you have a context set in the first hour of the day. ((If you prefer the imprecise New Agey language of Esther Hicks, the original quote is here
Take the time to line up the Energy first, and action becomes inconsequential. If you don"t take the time to line up the Energy, if you don"t find the feeling place of what you"re looking for, not enough action in the world will make any difference.
She is trying to say the same thing. Trying.))

For most of you this is the same old, same old, because you put your attention to everything the same old way. I am not saying you should DO something different every morning, that is not what I am saying.

Doing different will not set the context, doing different will not change your beingness, doing different will not change what is the backdrop that all of life, everything that happens during that day, will happen.
Context, backdrop are being phenomena... They are like hunger.

Who are you to think that you don"t need skills, don"t need knowledge in the world?

Your self-preserving, self-sparing nature is humanity-wide. Across races, across continents, occupations, education levels.

Most people today try to eat soup while they can only contribute one or two ingredients to that meal.

What do I mean?

Speaking languages
playing musical instruments
singing
reading musical notes
playing chess, backgammon, bridge (a card game)

Internal and external barriers to growth, changing, success, the good life

Is that a distraction? Does that get me closer to my target?
One of the big issue I see with people is this:

You have big desires... but you don"t consider doing the things you have to do to attain them worth your while.

Catch 22.

Your desire for comfort and doing nothing conflicts with your desire for what you say you desire.

Something has to give.
