How to make the empty wish "Happy New Year!" come true for you?

I took the garbage out this morning. It was really cold... I was shivering.

The guy across the street yelled to me: Happy New Year... and I responded in kind... But these good wished as nothing but wishful thinking: your word won"t make it happen. You wanting the New Year to be happy won"t do it for you... unless something changes... something fundamental... like your word will start to have power.

Because, at present, it has no power, or not much... instead your emotions control what you do, not your words.

Here is an example:

What happens when your want (want is an emotion, like craving) overrides your need, your rational part of the brain, and you buy something that you can"t use, or won"t use



You have two choices: you return it, if you can, or you keep it and suffer a double loss: an emotional loss and a financial loss.

I am just like you in this regard, with the only difference: I have trained myself to wait before I click the buy button.

It is also helpful, to me, that given that I am a not for profit company, I am always short of cash... It has the benefit of forcing me to think before I buy.

Especially now that I have lost a private client... who is, by the way, a prime example of the emotional buy: he wanted what private coaching offers, but was unwilling to do what it takes to benefit.

By the way: I don"t think he got the lesson.

Sometimes the price of failure is repaid in what you learn about yourself so you won"t make the same mistake again.

I have been observing people"s behavior especially their two selves relationship to each other... aka integrity.

The further away those two selves are from each other, the harder it is for those people to stick to anything, because they want what is instant, immediate, painless and fun. They also have a super sensitive "precious I" that takes offense when the truth is told about them.

Your Silver Bullet

I have mentioned before the "silver bullet" that has a short statement, often just one word, that instantly triggers collapse and being personally offended.

Mine, I have revised it recently, is someone calling me unkind. Why is it such a big deal? Because it is true, despite all my efforts to be kind, or at least perceived kind.

The client who quit: his silver bullet was "taker"... (Sexual Energy)

The common symptom is: you can"t be with your Silver Bullet.

A student emailed me the other day. His soul correction is Memories. I promised to ferret it out, and I think it is "liar". He"ll tell me... if it hurts, it is.

Whatever your Silver Bullet is, it makes you doubly vulnerable: this may be the only thing you haven"t been able to choose, haven"t been able to embrace, haven"t been able to be with.

Some more silver bullets of people I deal with: stupid (stupid as the stupid does way! not a low IQ!), pontificating, two-faced, all-about-you, perfectionist

Here is a share, that hides the Silver Bullet in plain sight

I slipped back into the gutter these past two days, or rather nights. But I was shown something this time, about how I maybe haven"t been really interested in growing up, and haven"t fully owned that. How it"s MY decisions and actions that have given me this life, and how a lot of them aren"t leading to a pretty place, but it"s up to me to do things differently. I can see how I"ve been a pleasure seeker or a hedonist ever since I was a kid who was spoiled by my grandmother, and allowed to be lazy. Hoping, on some level, that I can get away with that, that it"s compatible with the good life, but it"s not. Avoiding responsibility, I think.

I recalled what Sophie said in the article which has been coming back to me for a while now, and recognized myself: "When you need to confront me, and tell me the things about yourself that you don"t like, your slothfulness, or your complacency, or your anger, you are pretending while you are doing that. As if your behavior, attitude, etc. didn"t constitute who you are. It does. And unless you own it, fully, THERE IS NOTHING THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT."

And one thing I glimpsed from Sophie"s recent article is that I haven"t really been disgusted with what I"ve been doing, and that I could bring disgust to it. Which doesn"t mean making it wrong – that would be not sticking to the reality. It seems like I"ve been missing the distinction there… it"s like so far I"ve been mostly familiar with fixing, coming from "there"s something wrong or missing here". It seems that as I would start seeing that any "wrong" is not based on reality, and start dropping some of the rigid rules, the ugly would come up (like it maybe has) – the ugly that was until now covered up or controlled for using force. Does that make sense?

If so, then interrupting this process of seeing by reacting to my case, and jumping back, at some point, into making what I saw wrong and fixing, may have formed a trap I"ve been stuck in… where I could never fully own who I was.

Either way, I think I can now declare that I hit rock bottom...

None of those words would not hurt my feelings... I could be saying "it is true some of the time"... no resistance.

When you know your Silver Bullet you can immediately start working on accepting it, embracing it, owning it, choosing it. And be truly disgusted by it as intolerable... It is wickedly difficult, but not impossible. It is the energy of disgust that makes the change... not the "desire" to become better. The "desire" will make you hide it.

Nowadays if you tell me I am unkind, I will look and nod. I am still disgusted.

I am a critical Virgo plus a "Forget Thyself", so yeah, I am naturally blunt, but I don"t mean to be unkind. I mean to be truthful. It works some of the time, and it doesn"t work most of the time. If you consider your feelings, your emotion reality, then you won"t appreciate what I say, because it triggers bad feelings. But if you look in reality: my assessment of you is accurate.

What"s your Silver bullet? and being a clearing to be conned

Silver bullet ((What does the silver bullet do?
Silver bullet. In folklore, a bullet cast from silver is often the only weapon that is effective against a werewolf, witch, or other monsters. The term is also a metaphor for a simple, seemingly magical, solution to a difficult problem: for example, penicillin was a silver bullet that cured many bacterial infections.

What"s the meaning of the phrase "Silver bullet"?

A direct and effortless solution to a problem.
What"s the origin of the phrase "Silver bullet"?

We now use the term "silver bullet" to refer to an action which cuts through complexity and provides an immediate solution to a problem. The allusion is to a miraculous fix, otherwise portrayed as "waving a magic wand". This figurative use derives from the use of actual silver bullets and the widespread folk belief that they were the only way of killing werewolves or other supernatural beings.

Silver bullet

The most famous user of silver bullets was of course the Lone Ranger. This cowboy series ran from 1933 on radio and later as a highly popular television show. Silver bullets fitted well with the masked hero"s miraculous persona. He typically arrived from nowhere, overcame evil and departed, leaving behind only a silver bullet and echoes of "who was that masked man?".

The belief in the magical power of silver, especially of weapons made from silver, is very ancient. Book XVI of Horace"s Odes has it that the Delphic Oracle advised Philip of Macedonia to "fight with silver spears". References to the use of silver bullets date from the late 17th century. An early 19th century citation which specifically mentions the belief in their use as the only way to kill evil supernatural beings is found in Sir Walter Scott"s Tales of My Landlord, 1816:

Conspicuous by his black horse and white feather ... the object of aim to everyone, he seemed as if he were impassive to their shots. The superstitious fanatics looked upon him as a man gifted by the Evil Spirit with supernatural means of defense. Many a whig that day loaded his musket with a dollar cut into slugs, in order that a silver bullet (such was their belief) might bring down the persecutor of the holy kirk, on whom lead had no power.

There are numerous examples in 19th century fiction of the efficacy of silver bullets against werewolves, witches, the Devil and all manner of creatures, which were generically called "uncanny bodies".

Into the 20th century and the term was adopted in other contexts as meaning a solution to a problem. War bonds with that name were issued in 1914. In 1916, The Times advised the population of the UK to:

"Invest the savings in buying "Silver Bullets" in the form most suitable and convenient - Exchequer bonds, or through the Post Office Savings Bank."

Silver Bullet cocktails, a solution in a literal sense, were devised a little later. Harry Craddock"s Savoy Cocktail Book, 1930, lists the ingredients:

Silver bullet cocktail. half Gin. quarter Lemon Juice. quarter Kummel. Shake well and strain into cocktail glass.

The expression "magic bullet" also came into being at around this time. This had a similar meaning to "silver bullet" but related specifically to highly targeted medical treatments. It was coined by the German scientist Paul Ehrlich in a speech in 1906, using the German word Zauberkugel. This was translated as "magic bullet" when Ehrlich"s work was reported in Science, in August 1924:

"Ehrlich aptly compared them [natural antibodies] to magic bullets, constrained by a charm to fly straight to their specific objective, and to turn aside from anything else in their path."

Oddly, the figurative use of "silver bullet" that is now commonplace wasn"t adopted into general use until well after all of the above, probably in response to the activities of "that masked man". The US newspaper The Bedford Gazette included this piece in a September 1951 issue:

"There are those who warn against viewing the atom as a magic weapon... I agree. This is not a silver bullet which can deliver itself or otherwise work military miracles."
))... and being a clearing to be conned

In this article, as I usually do, I go deep into the recesses of your person... and dig out important information so you can regain your control over you life, and start moving in the direction you envision for yourself... or ignore what I am saying, and be like a boat that is directed by the undertow....

As you can learn from the "Feelings: the need for a new science" book, humans have a lot of needs. But humans can be manipulated... and they are.

One of these needs, the need for security, the need to be sure, the need to not make a mistake, the need to feel good (these sound like they are different needs, but they are the same need) has been manipulated into one of the most dominant needs that tells us what to do, tells you what is most important.

I see this all the time with my clients and students. They ultimately want to hand over their decision making to me... because decision making is fraught with the risk of making wrong steps... and that goes against that need to feel good.

... or if not that, they are trying to "suck up to me" to make me believe that they really really really, but really want to do the right thing, are doing the right thing, but the results prove the opposite.

Water energizing... a battle field

We, the few hundred people who want to raise their cell hydration, have been struggling with the water...

I was, probably, conned into believing that the problem was with the audio ((THE water energizer works through and audio recording of me charging some water, breathing heavy. The breath recorded carries the energizer energy. Of course it"s weaker. I can charge a bottle of water in 2-3 minutes with my hands, pushing the energizer energy into the water, while for the audio to do the same it takes nearly 24 hours.))

I became reactive, looking for a "fix of what"s wrong". So, as a fix, I combined two energies, and made a new recording.

Turns out the new recording is about three times slower, but it has revealed the mischief... because the cell hydration of most people isn"t going up... while some people"s do.

I could say that I am confused, I am puzzled, I am clueless...

The results are tainted with people"s personal agenda...

You don"t have a personal agenda, you say? Of course you do. Your self-awareness may be dimmed and you don"t see it. Or you are lying to yourself. Or you have more sinister agenda, for all I know. Maybe you want to prove that i don"t know what I am talking about...

Unfortunately this means: the feedback I am getting is not clean.

When you have an agenda, you are plagued with conflicting interest. And almost always the desire to be THE winner while another will be a loser (zero sum game) wins out.

In the work I do with you, in the work I attempt to do, I intend to do with you, I am on the side of what you said when you entered into an agreement with me: take you to a place where you can become the best you can become. I have no other agenda, neither conscious, nor unconscious. ((How do I know I have no other agenda? Something hidden from my view? Because I used to. And I noticed it and then eliminated it.))

I am OK with you wanting to be right, wanting to be secure, even with you wanting to be smarter than me. But not if that desire trumps your desire to become the best you can be.

In a course some 30 years ago I learned about my silver bullet... which was "selfish". If anyone thought I had a self-interest, if they implied that I was selfish, I crumbled and lost all power to just be. That is the nature of a silver bullet: it kills.

The other thing I learned in that course, 30 years ago, is that we are all an invitation, unconscious invitation to be manipulated, conned, coerced, forced... and that most of us respond to that invitation with vigor... become manipulative, conning, coercing, and forcing.

OK, truth be told, I could see that 30 years ago. Today I can"t see it on myself... maybe I have left the "we all"... even though if you use making me angry as a tool to manipulate me, I am still putty in your hand... :-(

I still have three people in my life who use that tool on me, when I am willing to engage with them, so in that regard, I am still part of the "we all"...

There is no protection, only awareness and conscious preparation can help you avoid it.

But in this article I am more interested in YOU being the perpetrator, the manipulator, the forcer, the conman.

Until you get aware, clear, and face the tiger, you"ll never be able to become all you can become, you"ll never develop a Self, and you"ll never love yourself or your life.

And you know what kind of life that gives you.

So what does this mean to you?

Start considering that you have conflicting agendas: your public agendas and your private, hidden, not savory agendas. And that they are mutually exclusive.

Just observe, and bring consciousness to it. Consciousness it the part of you that sheds light to things you do, that you cannot unsee.

Unless you are wholly on the dark side, just seeing what you do for what it is, in the light of your consciousness, is enough to initiate some behavioral change.

In essence, all coaching with me is bringing the light of consciousness to pockets of ugly in your attitude, in your behavior.

If the secret agenda still allows you to grow, that is all you need to straighten yourself out, and start growing.

And if the secret agenda is too strong... then you are on the dark side, and I can"t help you.

It was coined by the German scientist Paul Ehrlich in a speech in 1906, using the German word Zauberkugel. This was translated as "magic bullet" when Ehrlich"s work was reported in Science, in August 1924:

"Ehrlich aptly compared them [natural antibodies] to magic bullets, constrained by a charm to fly straight to their specific objective, and to turn aside from anything else in their path."

Oddly, the figurative use of "silver bullet" that is now commonplace wasn"t adopted into general use until well after all of the above, probably in response to the activities of "that masked man". The US newspaper The Bedford Gazette included this piece in a September 1951 issue:

"There are those who warn against viewing the atom as a magic weapon... I agree. This is not a silver bullet which can deliver itself or otherwise work military miracles."
))... and being a clearing to be conned

In this article, as I usually do, I go deep into the recesses of your person... and dig out important information so you can regain your control over you life, and start moving in the direction you envision for yourself... or ignore what I am saying, and be like a boat that is directed by the undertow....

As you can learn from the "Feelings: the need for a new science" book, humans have a lot of needs. But humans can be manipulated... and they are.

One of these needs, the need for security, the need to be sure, the need to not make a mistake, the need to feel good (these sound like they are different needs, but they are the same need) has been manipulated into one of the most dominant needs that tells us what to do, tells you what is most important.

I see this all the time with my clients and students. They ultimately want to hand over their decision making to me... because decision making is fraught with the risk of making wrong steps... and that goes against that need to feel good.

... or if not that, they are trying to "suck up to me" to make me believe that they really really really, but really want to do the right thing, are doing the right thing, but the results prove the opposite.

Water energizing... a battle field

We, the few hundred people who want to raise their cell hydration, have been struggling with the water...

I was, probably, conned into believing that the problem was with the audio ((THE water energizer works through and audio recording of me charging some water, breathing heavy. The breath recorded carries the energizer energy. Of course it"s weaker. I can charge a bottle of water in 2-3 minutes with my hands, pushing the energizer energy into the water, while for the audio to do the same it takes nearly 24 hours.))

I became reactive, looking for a "fix of what"s wrong". So, as a fix, I combined two energies, and made a new recording.

Turns out the new recording is about three times slower, but it has revealed the mischief... because the cell hydration of most people isn"t going up... while some people"s do.

I could say that I am confused, I am puzzled, I am clueless...

The results are tainted with people"s personal agenda...

You don"t have a personal agenda, you say? Of course you do. Your self-awareness may be dimmed and you don"t see it. Or you are lying to yourself. Or you have more sinister agenda, for all I know. Maybe you want to prove that i don"t know what I am talking about...

Unfortunately this means: the feedback I am getting is not clean.

When you have an agenda, you are plagued with conflicting interest. And almost always the desire to be THE winner while another will be a loser (zero sum game) wins out.

In the work I do with you, in the work I attempt to do, I intend to do with you, I am on the side of what you said when you entered into an agreement with me: take you to a place where you can become the best you can become. I have no other agenda, neither conscious, nor unconscious. ((How do I know I have no other agenda? Something hidden from my view? Because I used to. And I noticed it and then eliminated it.))

I am OK with you wanting to be right, wanting to be secure, even with you wanting to be smarter than me. But not if that desire trumps your desire to become the best you can be.

In a course some 30 years ago I learned about my silver bullet... which was "selfish". If anyone thought I had a self-interest, if they implied that I was selfish, I crumbled and lost all power to just be. That is the nature of a silver bullet: it kills.

The other thing I learned in that course, 30 years ago, is that we are all an invitation, unconscious invitation to be manipulated, conned, coerced, forced... and that most of us respond to that invitation with vigor... become manipulative, conning, coercing, and forcing.

OK, truth be told, I could see that 30 years ago. Today I can"t see it on myself... maybe I have left the "we all"... even though if you use making me angry as a tool to manipulate me, I am still putty in your hand... :-(

I still have three people in my life who use that tool on me, when I am willing to engage with them, so in that regard, I am still part of the "we all"...

There is no protection, only awareness and conscious preparation can help you avoid it.

But in this article I am more interested in YOU being the perpetrator, the manipulator, the forcer, the conman.

Until you get aware, clear, and face the tiger, you"ll never be able to become all you can become, you"ll never develop a Self, and you"ll never love yourself or your life.

And you know what kind of life that gives you.

So what does this mean to you?

Start considering that you have conflicting agendas: your public agendas and your private, hidden, not savory agendas. And that they are mutually exclusive.

Just observe, and bring consciousness to it. Consciousness it the part of you that sheds light to things you do, that you cannot unsee.

Unless you are wholly on the dark side, just seeing what you do for what it is, in the light of your consciousness, is enough to initiate some behavioral change.

In essence, all coaching with me is bringing the light of consciousness to pockets of ugly in your attitude, in your behavior.

If the secret agenda still allows you to grow, that is all you need to straighten yourself out, and start growing.

And if the secret agenda is too strong... then you are on the dark side, and I can"t help you.
