Guaranteed to make you feel happy: It"s all in a day"s work

It"s all in a day"s work

Of all the things I have ever said to myself, this is the most potent saying.

It has saved me from suffering, it has saved me from all the nasty feelings that plague humans nowadays: belligerence, entitledness, feeling slighted, frustration, anger, laziness, yearning, wanting, and more.

How? Why?

Because the saying puts you in the present moment where nothing is ever wrong, where nothing is too much, where nothing is supposed to be different than the way it is, and it isn"t supposed to mean something, and it doesn"t.

To the degree I can bring this "It"s all in a day"s work" to bear in my life, to the same degree I can be happy.

I have been dealing some health issues... mostly pain. Some are really scary pain... it seems I am dying.

When I bring "it"s all in a day"s work" to it, then I just go through the pain, because when it hurts, what there is to do is go with the pain. Hurts a lot... then that is what there is to go though: lots of pain.

Going through life without resistance transforms every activity into a source of flow, a source of "of course", and it is all good.

• When I have computer troubles, what there is to do is research how to fix it, how to make it work.


• When I have to wait two hours for my ride, what there is to do is wait, and fill the time with useful activity, like reading on my kindle.


• When someone interrupts me at the most interesting part of the book, is what there is to do is smile, and have an enriching conversation... the book can wait.


• When I can"t fall asleep, what there is to do is stare into the darkness, or visit old memories, or just breathe... and rest.


• When I am tired, what there is to do is rest.


• When I am rested, what there is to do is notice that I am rested and return to work.

Life is in constant flow, enjoyable.

• When walking hurts, what there is to do is put one foot after the other. The longer it hurts, the further I get.


• When someone"s smile lights up the room, what there is to do is compliment them on their smile...

Life is lived with ease and grace, when you bring "it"s all in a day"s work" to it.

I used to say, before I learned to say "this too shall pass" but it was still making it wrong, and I held my breath, so I didn"t have to be present to what I wanted to pass... whatever was happening.

Different soul correction people deal with life differently.

• Circuitry people stop the flow... get stuck in everything, don"t want life to be the way life is...


• Removing hatred just want to block out the ugly, be all pink colored glasses... but the ugly is there, and what there is to be with is the ugly.


• Revealing the dark side... hopes that if they judge strong enough, then they separate themselves from the dark... but judgment creates darkness in them... so life is not pretty


• Memories are really "clear" how life is supposed to be, so they are hardly ever even noticing how it is... they can only see life in the contrast... it"s not how it is supposed to be.


• Silent Partner is the rule maker, the belligerent rule maker, feeling forced, feeling put upon, feeling unwilling, picking and choosing what should be in a day"s work...

As you see, it is not easy and light being an untrained human... It is mostly: "not this and not that"... suffering.

I learn a lot by observing dogs.

A well trained dog is happier than an untrained dog. The untrained pulls on its leash, jumps on people, whines, barks, and all that behavior would get them killed in the wild...

A trained dog is happy... it can relate to what there is to do like I do: "It"s all in a day"s work" and stop trying to change, trying to fix, trying to complain, and fuss, and anger, and be unhappy.

As you can see, the strait and narrow, the Anna Karenina Principle: "it is all in a day"s work" has lots of "opposites"... of the flavor of "this is how it should be"... all the way to "I should feel good all the time".

I saw something yesterday: when I am willing to look for examples of a new word, like jaunty: naturally bouncy and happy, no pretense, no airs... and let the new "example" know I noticed, I can make fans, friends, or just someone happy to have met me.

• I saw a jaunty person and did just that: let her know that I saw that. And she was rewarded... and we had a meaningful albeit short conversation: my ride was ready to ride... lol.


• I talked to a prickly radio personality yesterday and thanked him for returning me to love music again. He said: that was the nicest thing you have ever told me...

Letting people know what you appreciate about them can remind you to appreciate... Appreciate is tricky word: its root, the word"s root is "precious", set a price, appraise... which we would call today: value... see as valuable.

People can"t appreciate unless they see value. And they cannot see value unless they appreciate. Tricky, eh?

Our natural inclination is to devalue... so we can feel superior to it... whatever the "it" is... But being more valuable that something that has no value is not valuable at all...

The more value you can detect, the more value you seem to have... Because you don"t see the world the way the world is, including value. You see the world the way you are... valueless, if that is how you are for yourself.

And devaluing another"s action, their gesture, their gift, for example, by explaining that you are so noble, or whatever you present yourself as, is reducing you to not having any value to yourself... darn...

The strait and narrow is at it again... lol.

The 20-day skill learning challenge is a great time to observe your relationship to yourself, your value, your habits, your ability to appreciate, your attitude.

• You can"t learn what you already know.


• You can"t grow if you fancy yourself as big as you can get.


• You can"t love if you hate.


• You can"t fix anything really, because in reality nothing is ever wrong... so you are trying to fix unreality... and you know how that ends up... with more disappointments, with more frustration, with more self-hatred.

Try out "it"s all in a day"s work" and mean it.

Let me know how it works for you.

Holographic reading: the secret of billionaires...

Holographic learning: the only way to human being level

I am reading a book I don"t like. I was told by Source to read it... and I think I found the one sentence (so far) in the 700 page book that I needed to read. One sentence...

Reading, when it creates a world, a rich world to live in, to accomplish in, is holographic. Each book sharpens some area, fills in the missing or fuzzy details.

This one sentence has been that kind of a sentence. It was like a Flash of lightening.

The sentence was, I am paraphrasing, "I asked Tristan was she happy. and he said, not especially, but he thinks this is due to she is Hungarian and they are not a merry race. And he has a point..." ((The book is Neal Stephenson"s in name... The Rise and fall of DODO, don"t read it.))

Wooohooo

Like a flashlight, my consciousness is now looking for signs/patterns of mood... disposition: merry, gloomy, angry, something I have never considered, never really noticed... as if it didn"t exist.

Suddenly I am noticing. And you know what? It is significant.

Disposition

I binged on a Russian series over the weekend. This guy loves two women. One is a great match for him, the other...

Our guy is a happy person ready for fun... lives like fun. The other woman is gloomy. A perfect match with the gloomy other guy who loves her.

Hm.

I probably lean towards gloomy. But have a capacity for fun. Rowdy fun. Like dancing and joking.

I am going to add vocabulary words to add more color, more shades, more details into my hologram. I am excited. Wow.

Something happened, something opened up for me, because this, mood, disposition is not the only area where I am starting to see more details.

It"s as if someone had raised the level of lighting... opened the shutters...

Exhilarating.

Let"s not jinx it... lol.

Until you have an interconnected, holographic picture of reality that is largely (30%) truthful, all your learning will be unlearning. Correcting. Exchanging myth for truth.

30% is a lot. The best books have 10% truth value or under. The books written by known and renown scientists...

And these books also are fragmented: their authors don"t have that interconnected, holographic picture of reality.

They are like one of my clients who has a tendency to focus in on one thing, and dig. Deep. He is in business, and his mistakes are business mistakes. But the mistakes could be in any area of life.

The skill is to alternate among three modes of looking:

• looking at the big picture where you can see proportions, contexts. These is seeing the forest.


• The second way to look is to see the timeline. See the process. To see where things are going. In time.


• And the third say to look is the shortest amount of time, the thing you are working on. The project.

For example: I was eating New Zealand lamb for a few months. Now my supply has dried up [note]Jet.com won"t deliver fresh groceries to Syracuse NY, darn![/note] and I am forced to eat American Lamb. Since last Wednesday (it is Monday only! Five days![/note] has already killed my gut flora... my probiotics are needed again.

Why? Because American farms, American supermarkets, "generously" feed homegrown lamb with antibiotics, because: guess, they feed them grains which makes them sick... and makes me sick. The label says: organic, grass fed, but it is a lie. Every label in American supermarkets is a lie. Every single one of them.

But without me looking all those three ways at what is happening, without having enough truth and enough details in my holographic picture of food manufacturing in the world and especially in the United States of "let"s make people sick" I would not have checked if I needed probiotics, and would get really sick... fast, and would not know what hit me.

Here is another example: I am watching this TED talk video ((

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stc5MUIloP0

)) on converting desert sand into soil... soil meaning: stuff grows in it. Attempts of turning the deserts of the planet into greed have been around but of all the methods this feels the most effective and most cost-effective.

But the powers that be are not interested.

Scarcity serves their purpose: keeping humanity in victim mode, effect mode, not even thinking of self-determination.

And here is a holographic shift of focus: I go from looking at the planet, that is getting uncomfortably warmer. Now I look at you: your cells are drying out. Your inner "terrain" is getting less and less fertile. You are able to thrive less and less... You live in scarcity, your attention is on yourself, and you have scarcely any attention left to get something done.

Do you see the connection? The same picture, from two different vantage points.

If we add the third, temporality, time, we see that the ones that are not narrowed into their own little limited perspective because they have their cells hydrated, are going to move onto the next century, the next evolutionary phase of humanity.

This is what I am talking about.

If you want to know where you are standing, the 16 different measures of the Starting Point Measurements will set you on the map... where you are and which way you need to go, if you want to become part of the next evolutionary phase of humanity.

And here is an insight from the Russian Netflix series, worth for you to have read this article: when you don"t live like your life is in danger, when you don"t live in scarcity, which is actually an attitude, then you can bring creativity, joy, inventiveness to life.

When you can say: it"s all in a day"s work, and don"t even have to say "honest work", and you can bring caring to your work, it is heaven on earth. I mean it.

But as long as you live in scarcity, as long as you have to look at everything through yourself... your life is hell. Hell on earth. Same exact circumstances... nothing else changed. Just your experience and therefore your actions.

In one paradigm you want to make as much as possible with as little work as possible, in the other, where work is part of life and not a negation of life, you are joyfully investing as much as you got... for who wouldn"t?

I have observed that stingy students, stingy clients, all suffer from the effects of stinginess. Because that is how it is.

One way stinginess shows up is in your integrity measure... in your empowering or disempowering context, and also in your actions... But ultimately there is only one loser: you.
