Only people who are willing to go to hell and back can have real compassion and be happy.

It"s been a weird couple of days.

Every time I stop doing something my mind goes to evil acts I have seen in movies or read about in books.

It started with the Marco Polo series on Netflix. I realized that I can"t watch betrayal... something about betrayal is too difficult for me to be with.

I wondered if it was that I saw myself in either the traitor or the betrayed, but I don"t think it"s that.

But it dislodged a veritable mound of buried memories of acts in books and other movies.

An Atlantic article: What does ISIS really want?

What ISIS Really Wants
from the Atlantic

The Islamic State is no mere collection of psychopaths. It is a religious group with carefully considered beliefs, among them that it is a key agent of the coming apocalypse. Here"s what that means for its strategy—and for how to stop it.

What is the Islamic State?


Where did it come from, and what are its intentions? The simplicity of these questions can be deceiving, and few Western leaders seem to know the answers. In December, The New York Times published confidential comments by Major General Michael K. Nagata, the Special Operations commander for the United States in the Middle East, admitting that he had hardly begun figuring out the Islamic State"s appeal. "We have not defeated the idea," he said. "We do not even understand the idea." In the past year, President Obama has referred to the Islamic State, variously, as "not Islamic" and as al-Qaeda"s "jayvee team," statements that reflected confusion about the group, and may have contributed to significant strategic errors.

What is human nature and what is human being nature?

This article may not be to your liking... Be forewarned... If you stay, please make sure you read the footnotes. If you don"t know what they are... you know what to do...

What is human nature?

Counter to new agey bs, counter to positive thinking, etc. Human nature, at this point, is to desire everything ONLY for themselves. Or shall I talk to you? Only for yourself. Sharing is not a capacity that is compatible with human nature.

Why? Because human nature is all about survival.

The fastest way to break up a family is to die... and then the people who inherit from you will fight and hate each other.

My two brothers did that over an old rare book... both wanted it. They haven"t warmed up to each other since... this was 20 years ago.

It is so in sex, it is so in business, it is so everywhere.

The anatomy of missing the mark

Have you been wondering why public services and big companies employ semi-morons for customer service?

I am, I think, supposed to mention this, given how many times it has happened in the past week.

Not every customer service person acts stupid, only most of them.

So what is their stupidity about? They only hear what they know. The filter of their mind screens out everything that is not the three-four basic issues: refund request, payment plan request, return request... you know the kind most people will have.

For every issue outside of the ones that the solution is standardized, the customer rep can"t hear...

The mind did not allow the person to interact with reality, only with what"s in the mind.

Can Karma put a cord or attachment on you?

If you believe in Karma

Karma (in Hinduism and Buddhism: the sum of a person"s actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in future existences.) is an action that, according to Indian philosophy, needs to be countered with another action.

There is good karma and there is bad karma.

Karma is a method to imprison you. Imprison? Yeah... Truth be told: A good action doesn"t balance a bad one, and no matter what you do, a bad action is a bad action. Done. Over. Next.

Karma acts on you like an energetic attachment. Not the action, no. The belief of karma energetically attaches yourself, anchors you and leaches your aliveness.

Karma is a lot like the national debt: it cannot be worked off, paid off, by design. You are always in debt, and that"s that.

This whole inquiry started from a recent insight I had: that people from India or Pakistan, originally or still live there, have disproportionately more attachments than "normal" people with different belief system.

What creates the attachment? It is a strong emotional connection, in Karma"s case.

Teal Swan, John Assaraf, Omharmonics... review: should you follow them, learn from them?

Teal Scott aka Teal Swan aka Teal Bosworth must be making waves again... Frequency paintings ((Can these paintings raise your vibration automatically? Of course not. It is another greed: raising your vibration... without work... hah, gotcha! lol



)) automatically raising people"s vibrations? Or maybe people"s greed glands are swollen due to spring...

So let me write an article that will, maybe once and forever, put this question to bed: is it worth for you to watch, listen to, learn from a guru, not specifically from any guru, and specifically from this
Teal person, whatever her last name may be at the moment.

What should be your criteria? How should you make a good decision?

What"s missing from Rapid Peace, the Power of Now, and other books...

Everybody and their sister is teaching you to be in the present moment, to surrender to the present moment.

I have observed people who loved it in Eckhart Tolle"s book, and now I am observing a famous marketer marketing an ebook on the same principle. ((
A piano playing black-belt MOM reveals...
"The "Little Switch" That Lets You Immediately Enter A PRODUCTIVE State Of Mind, Get Laser Focus, And Enjoy Zen Calm..."
... no matter how stressed out, busy, or desperate you are!

Long ago I, Jason Fladlien, discovered a peculiar paradox... that I still, to this day believe is responsible for most entrepreneurs NOT achieving their goals.

It"s the reason why your life might feel like you"re driving with the handbrake on. And why it feels like a massive struggle to get anything done.

And it"s killing me to know that everyone has it in their power...

... To fix it by flipping a "little switch" - that comes pre-installed in every single human soul on this planet. Yet... most people don"t bother. They go through their lives feeling slow. Groggy. Frustrated and with little willpower.
Here"s what"s going on...
At least 77% percent of people in the U.S. experience physical symptoms of stress.

These include difficulty concentrating, racing thoughts, trouble learning new information...

... Headaches, lightheadedness, nervous habits, feet tapping, feeling overloaded, overwhelmed...

... Reduced work efficiency, poor productivity, feelings of loneliness... and so on and so on.
Does that sound familiar?
No wonder it"s hard to accomplish anything!

And, unfortunately... I know this all too well.

Back when I was painting houses for $12/hour, I was also really stressed out.

There was never enough money. There was never enough time. There was never enough energy... to do anything besides go to work, put in my hours, come back and lay on the bed exhausted.

It was a vicious circle. And I felt trapped.

But lack of productivity, focus and even happiness... is not even the biggest problem. The biggest problem with stress is...
... It"s DEADLY.
It"s not just your mental health and productivity that"s suffering.

Stress takes a huge toll on every single cell in your body.

From your gums to your heart, from your brain to your lungs. It can make you more susceptible to illnesses ranging from the common cold to cancer, from heart disease to intestinal problems, from erectile dysfunction to anxiety attacks.

There are multiple studies from the Mayo Clinic that link the probability of someone developing Type 2 diabetes if they experience high amounts of stress.

And so on. Bottom line is... stress kills.

Plus... 3/4 of the population is at risk. Statistically, that means MOST people reading this!
So How Did I Go From A Stressed, Burned Out House Painter To One Of The Most Productive Marketers... While Being Calm As A Monk Inside No Matter What Happened?
Well, I did actually became a monk.

To the right, you can see a picture of me... when I was actively practicing. It"s from a local newspaper in Iowa.

What being a monk taught me... was how to be completely calm, in control and focused at the task at hand... which did wonders to my productivity.

In fact... if it wasn"t for this ability to calm down and focus - I wouldn"t have made...
8 figures online!
I wouldn"t have had the resources to go after my dreams with so much energy I quickly surpassed most other marketers, many of them more experienced that me.

And it all started with me, becoming a monk. One of the best time investments of my life.
You Don"t Need To Become A Monk
To Achieve Your Goals
Most of people reading this don"t have the time to become monks, learn how to meditate, learn a bunch of poses and then practice all that for years.

What most of us need...

... Is a way to instantly de-stress and be productive, happy, and 100% in the moment, focused at the task at hand, right?

It doesn"t matter what exactly your goals are. This isn"t just about making more money.

Maybe your goal is to have enough energy to pursue your passion - like photography, guitar, or anything else - after your day job. Maybe you"re just looking to feel better as you go on about your life. Or maybe you just want to discover how to be 100% in the moment when you spend time with your family.

... Or maybe your goal is to "just" protect yourself from an early grave!
I"d like you to meet someone
Her name is Karla Grove. And I haven"t met her personally...

But boy... am I glad our CMO, John S. Rhodes brought Karla to my attention.

He told me she"s always positive always happy, always in the moment... It"s just incredible.

She"s a piano player (Fellowship from Royal School of Music in London, no less!) and a 3rd degree black belt at taekwondo. She teaches both taekwondo and piano lessons. And she"s a mom.

That would put anyone under a lot of stress... But not Karla.
And she has a life-changing "secret" to share
In fact... her approach isn"t a secret.

You"ll read it everywhere. From Cosmopolitan to wishy-washy self-help books... to Tony Robbins and so on.

Here it is.

"You need to live in the present moment, the here and now, what"s right in front of you, and focus on that one thing right now."

Duh, right?
How do you actually apply this though?
I"ve seen hundreds of courses and books on personal development.

And all of them just give you the theory. Then, you"re supposed to figure out how to apply this to your own situation.

Which is where most people give up.

But what if you were able to just follow a simple set of instructions to actually apply this simple principle in your life no matter what it is you do?
What could you achieve... if you were able to give 100% to your every goal?
Work on your online business with 100% focus and energy. Spend time with your family while being 100% there for them, without worrying about anything else - money, work, bills, whatever. Excel at your job because you come in replenished and ready to rock... and so on.

Sounds awesome, right?

This is why it is with great pleasure I"m introducing a life-changing product we created together with Karla.
Introducing...
Rapid Peace
Instant Stress Reduction, Inner Peace And Zen Calm For Entrepreneurs
When I reviewed Karla"s course before publishing it... I was blown away.

There"s none of that fluff most personal development courses (even the expensive ones!) are filled with.

Instead, you"re getting short, to the point, HOW TO style instructions that you can immediately apply to your life.

Here"s what you"re going to discover inside...

What the stress hormones really want you to do... This is the reason 99% of your stress is counterproductive & negative (and what to do about it!)
The anti-stress "switch" explained: the exact formula to destress no matter how noisy it is outside and no matter how many responsibilities and tasks you have...
How to deal with crazy schedules, unpredictable days, tough situations, and anything else life throws your way... (this is NOT designed to make all the difficult parts go away - they"re important! Rather you"ll learn to focus on what matters...)

Oh and by the way... You"re going to discover that in JUST the introduction. It"s that amazing.
Here"s what you"re going to discover when you read further...

Why stress isn"t something BAD per se and how it can be a life saver, too (plus, how to tell when it"s killing you and when it"s saving your life...)
The counter-intuitive reason why most people can"t find time to take care of themselves... (Get this: the more time you spend on replenishing yourself the more time you start to have - if you follow these simple instructions!)
Why three out of four doctor"s visits are for stress-related ailments (In fact... it costs the US $300 billion every year in medical bills and lost productivity. United States population is around 300 million. That means EVERY single one of us loses least $1,000 per year!)
How to "switch off" the learned behaviour that puts more and more stress on your shoulders... faster than it takes to turn on your TV!
Why you as an internet marketer might have the toughest challenge in the world when it comes to focusing on your goals... and how you can wake up productive and focused as soon as tomorrow morning

Here"s the deal...
What we have looked at so far... is just the beginning of this guide. It"s short if you count the pages... but it does NOT come up short when we"re looking at the value of this.

Going through material like this is a life-changing experience. Just look at what else you"re going to discover...

If you"re thinking "I don"t have time for this!" then you need it the most. Why? Because if you think you"re going to do this later, you won"t. Here"s how to start now...
The special routine that, in just a few minutes, will energize you more than extra snooze time or a cup of super-strong coffee...
The 3 things you need that cost $0.00 you"ll need for this to work (time required? no more than few minutes per day... and for great results, keep it up for at least 30 days!)
How to use "Paganini"s Secret" to installing a hyper-productive, life saving routine like this in your life forever
Are you vibrant and full of energy or are you tired and just surviving? If it"s the latter, you probably need to fix these 3 simple things. Discover how you can do it on a busy schedule... in a simple series of steps.

This is WHAT you do...
And this is HOW you do it
What I personally love about this course is that everything is explained so well, the instructions are so clear, you won"t be able NOT to take action.

You"re getting the WHY... the WHAT... And most importantly the HOW... that you can use to change your life immediately after you get this course.

Here are some more things you can look forward immediately when you invest in this...

What to do if over and over... you find yourself started on one thing... but can"t finish it because of distractions (this puts a stop to every website and every app pulling you in 100 different directions!)
The curious thing about multitasking that empty TV shows, feel-good movies and fluffy time management books will have you believe... that"s been proven to slash your productivity in half AND double the number of mistakes you make!
How to access the playful, happy part of you that has never changed ever since you were a child... in an instant - and how to use it to find your balance when there"s yet another Google update, your kids need help with their school work and you have to turn in an important report tomorrow morning 9:00 am sharp!
How to achieve Zen-like state without reading the "right" books, learning to meditate for years, taking up a life of chastity, or anything like that...
And much much more!

Plus, you get these amazing worksheets!
I"ve saved the best for last.

You"re also getting really useful worksheets that will let you take advantage of Rapid Peace in a systematic, effective way.

For example, there"s a worksheet that lets you identify and evaluate the causes of stress in your life.

Then there"s the worksheet that outlines morning routines. From "Oh my gosh! I overslept" 6 minute routine... to an expanded 30 minute routine for when you have loads of time (which you will after you"re done with this course!)

There"s a similar worksheet for nighttime routines too. Then you get...

The "Simple Moment" journaling worksheet. Then you get worksheets that"ll let you evaluate and track your physical self... your mental self... your emotional self... and your spiritual self. And more!


It"s like IKEA of personal development!
Using these worksheets makes your personal quest for happiness and productivity...

As simple as putting together a couch from IKEA.

Suddenly, everything is clear, systematic, and doable. There"s no overwhelm and you"re going to be able to take back your life... in an instant.
How much does this cost?
$29.95. Plain and simple. Which is almost ridiculous, considering that...

... Around these parts $29.95 is the cost of a couple of movie tickets.

When you consider that you"re getting your life back (and will probably feel much healthier and happier too...) - and it only takes an hour to go through this course and a few minutes per day to implement the techniques... you"re going to see that the value is staggering.

However this super low price is only valid if you grab this before the special offer expires. When it does, the price is going to be $49.95... which is still a steal of course.

The more something resonates with you the less its truth value or Why Paul Selig is so popular

Why? Because you like what you are. You are attracted what confirms what you think, how you are, who you are, what you know. ((









A tuning fork is calibrated to vibrate at a precise vibration, like the musical sound A. A piano wire is manufactured to resonate at a certain frequency, approximately, depending on the exact length of the wire. A piano can be out of tune, meaning that its wires are relaxed and too long... A person is like a material that resonates strongly at the particular frequency of whatever "it" is. Means the same thing as "it struck a chord with me" - just that you recognized it well, related to it really strongly.

A person is more like an orchestra than a piano: many instruments. Ego, soul, mind, body, conscious mind, subconscious mind, will, attention... a real orchestra full of instruments, no musicians.

Sometimes your soul resonates, sometimes your ego resonates, sometimes, most of the time, your mind resonates... and it resonates with what it has heard most often, so whatever lies you have heard a lot, you resonate with it.

The Germans, after Hitler repeated his lies often enough, the Germans resonated with what he said, and marched into their death, willingly, blindly, heroically.))

There is no mystery why humanity is growing away from its true nature, not towards it.

Watch who and what is hugely popular? The more popular they are the more people they attract the closer their "truth" is to the common society trained mind. The more it sounds true.

What goal should you set? A goal is a result achieved by a certain time...

A friend of mine asked for help in setting a goal. It wasn"t that he was interested in accomplishment. Really, he wanted to look like he was... Appearances.

Why am I so hard on him? I"ve known him for four-five years, and he hasn"t done anything, hasn"t accomplished anything.

He started a lot of things, talked about starting even more, but never actually took anything near a place where it would have worked, where it would have been either a failure or success.

Worry

I have to admit, I would have never thought to write this article, without reading Andy Shaw"s book, Creating a Bug Free Mind. He writes extensively about worry.

I never thought of myself as a worrier, but, of course, I still worry from time to time. Nowhere near as much as others.

They call it fear of failure, anxiety, but it is all worry.

Spending all your mental energy fretting about something in the future, while in the present things don"t get done. Hm. Really stupid, isn"t it?

Warning: read the footnotes... In this article they are especially telling. I put everything in the footnotes that would make the article difficult to read... But their position, in the footnotes, doesn"t make them not important, or not part of the article. Consider yourself warned... lol

I measured someone"s vibration, re-measured 3 times. It was consistently 100.

We emailed back and forth, this is the last email that came, this morning:

Hello Sophie,
My last message to you was a kind of joke, I must apologize and thank you for your reply. The reason for my writing is to let you know for the final time that you are wrong. My vibration is somewhere around 350, not 100.

NEW: How to Think For Yourself... or Don"t be a buffalo

When buffalo were still common in North America, Native American hunters learned a trick to hunt the herd animals. Buffalo don’t look up when moving as a group. In fact, if a few buffalo in a herd were startled into running, the entire herd would charge, even if most of the buffalo had no idea what they were running from.

The Native American hunters learned that if they encouraged a few buffalo to start running towards a cliff, the entire herd would run off the edge. The buffalo followed the group thinking, and couldn’t stop themselves–even when it meant their own deaths.

Although you’re probably not gullible enough to run off a cliff, it’s easy to stop thinking for yourself. It’s easy, because you don’t realize when you’re doing it. Thinking for yourself takes effort, and it’s easy to be tricked into going over the edge.

NEW: The road to hell is hell itself

http://www.yourvibration.com/wp-content/uploads/movie_50108.jpg
I consider a book or a movie really good, if it gives me pause.

What I really mean: it gives me a question that I can ponder, maybe even decades. Or until the insight comes.

Obviously, if you have been reading my stuff long enough, you know that I believe that to find the path, you need to evaluate and analyze the mis-steps, the mistakes. To know good, you need to know evil.

One of this puzzle pieces fell into place today.

The movie is about Genghis Khan, the starting point of the the 300 year old invasion, plundering, and decimating of Russia, China, and Europe.

Now, what is puzzling about that? It"s wrong, right? After all killing is bad... waaah,waaah,waaah. All life is sacred... waaah, waaah, waaah.
