Playground: it is never too late to have a happy childhood

The playground distinction: A simple distinction really... uncollapse reality and your commentary and you"ll stop marker feelings (emotions) from pulling you out of your well-being. ((The second distinction of the Playground is that unless the ability becomes automatic, muscle memory, you have only gotten some, a little of what is available...))

A relatively short sentence... But like with everything that is simple: it is not easy.

It is not easy to see, and it is not easy to not leave the two sides collapsed... the world, religion, society, your rules fight against it.

Morality, societal rules, personal rules, ego

• If your moral values come from religion, school, they will be hard to break


• Your ego may have created rules in which you have to be smart, even smarter than others... hard to break


• Your ancestral history may put you in a victim/abused/exploited mindset, and that is hard to break


• Your soul correction may work actively against you growing, becoming whole and complete


• and a lot more (Read the footnotes!)

In a previous article I mentioned that even though I even lead the Playground back in 1988, I got a huge breakdown that I could barely climb through in 1995 when my mother died.

How is that possible? I was already masterful at uncollapsing the two sides of the picture... so why? How? What was missing?

What I never saw before is that many of our complaints have a "no" in them... and while they sound valid, they are not reality. ((What feels weird in hindsight is to what degree I didn"t fully understand what I had already seen. I 1987 I did a course, The More Money Workshop, where the mantra was: "nothing is missing, unless you say so"... Missing is saying "no", saying that what is missing should be there. You should have this and that, or you should be this and that... making you utterly miserable... and losing sight of what you have, who you are, and even of what you are doing. Very very very costly, damaging... and all part of the Playground.))

My particular complaining was: I wasn"t there when my mother died, and I didn"t, I couldn"t help her to get well.

It took me a whole six weeks of wallowing, self-flagellation, AND a conversation with a coach, to see that none of the "no" parts ever happened. It didn"t happen that I wasn"t there. It didn"t happen that I didn"t or couldn"t help her get well.

What actually happened is this:

My mother was in Budapest, Hungary
I was in New Jersey, USA.
My mother died.

Everything else is commentary. Everything else didn"t happen, it was just talk.

Now, you would thing that seeing it (insight alert!) made a difference for future occurrences of that same phenomenon... "there is never any no in reality!"

Far from it.

I had to practice. But, of course, life doesn"t, isn"t designed to give you many organized opportunities to practice a distinction... life is going to throw stuff at you with instant upset... so LIFE is not a good place to learn things...

Practice is the purpose of the Playground.

Here is an example: you know, you have seen the big parks in cities with built in chess tables... if nowhere else, in movies.

Do you think the dudes that play there every day ever get better? No. But why? Because learning, practice, as nowadays it is fashionable and hip to say "deliberate practice" is impossible while you play a game to win.

You need to play specifically for learning... and take the time to cogitate, to analyze, to fully see what is happening from every side possible.

Life is serious business (fun) if you want to have a good life.

I have noticed that most everyone, 99.4% of all people rely on their natural intelligence to wing life.

Everyone in my family, every one of my students, every one of my fellow students (except one)... that is how people deal with life that is a serious business.

No wonder humanity hasn"t evolved in the past 30,000 years. Intellectually, and consciousness-wise.

The only learning that matters, the only learning that makes a difference, is learning that alters you. It creates a muscle memory, or it creates a new person inside.

I used to be 100% like most people... top of the class without studying.
Then my father said, at age 13: you need to get good at the violin before I let you learn guitar.

It was the most unreasonable demand... but I did it. And when I got really good: I had a choice to remain with what I was newly good at and started to love, or start something new.

I had a new relationship with playing an instrument, or singing which was my second musical "instrument". I started to do scales 70% of the time, and "pieces" only 30% of the time.

But it didn"t carry over to my school work, or to swimming, or to gymnastic: I was still only did there what I had to do to get by.

But, I was lucky. I guess Life had plans with me, because at age 16 I was not good enough to stay in the school I was: I was one of the least performing students.

I knew I had to learn to learn... had to learn to study, to go beyond just using my natural quick wit. And I created a system... and I quickly produced results no one expected of me.

I brought the same painstaking, eager beaver method to my participation in Landmark Education: I made it a separate "job" to master the material I was given. 3-6 hours of input... 34-37 hours of processing.

Yeah, for mastery that is the proportion: for every hour of input to take, you need 10 hours of practice.

Did you think that the depth, breadth of my understanding and knowledge was achieved with my natural intelligence? Not at all. I worked at it... diligently, tenaciously, over time.

I am seeing that I haven"t brought the same attitude to learning business, to learning marketing... and I am trying to get by on my natural intelligence, which is not enough.

I work with students who are sure that watching a video, attending a webinar, reading a book, or having a coaching call with me is going to get them to a place where they will be able to change themselves "molecular" level.

Between you and me: impossible.

But how you do anything is how you do everything: you are just as "skating" on your natural intelligence, what you already know, in your work! And not surprisingly: you are not happy.

Why? Because the "design" of a human is to be happy only if certain conditions are met.

I subscribe to Nietzsche"s take on it:

“What is good? All that heightens the feeling of power in man, the will to power, power itself. What is bad? All that is born of weakness. What is happiness? The feeling that power is growing, that resistance is overcome.”

—Friedrich Nietzsche, Philosopher (1844-1900)

When you are skating in life on what you already know, your natural aptitude or intelligence, the power in you isn"t growing, no resistance is overcome, and you are not happy.

It is a rare program that focuses in on one distinction, and lets participants practice and practice and practice.

Programs, courses consider that people pay for is information. But information is worthless unless it changes who you are...

So most everything is worthless information out there, as much as 91% of all you can find, paid or free is worthless...

If you want me to look at MY stuff: my articles, my hundreds of webinars, maybe even my coaching calls are worthless... because they don"t force you to do the practicing.

Exceptions are the Reclaim (67 steps), the Accountability program, and this... Becoming an Idea Machine practice... The Playground combined with choosing.

All the posturing of how advanced you are, how spiritual you are, how blah blah blah you are is that: posturing.

Unless you become the kind of person who lives in a way that the power is growing, that resistance is overcome, you are going to remain unhappy, and nothing and no one can change that.

You are, most likely, part of the 99.4% of humanity who will remain the same, using only your real or imagined intelligence.

But if you feel in yourself the stirring of the Power... you owe it to yourself to step off the diving board and land in the deep water of becoming all you can become.

The Playground is an amazing and FUN vehicle.

One of the people, definitely part of the .6% of humanity who shares generously his own methods, is James Altucher.

In his books, Choose Yourself, Reinvent Yourself, Choose yourself for Wealth, in his podcasts he talks to everyone who is willing to listen, and teaches the .6% who is willing to learn.

This podcast I watched today is excellent... watch it. It goes hand in hand with what I am saying.

It"s an hour long, but is worth the .6%"s time

Is that you?

The secret of becoming impervious... the secret that really successful people don"t even know they have...

Impervious means: unaffected by, untouched by, immune to, invulnerable to, insusceptible to, resistant to, indifferent to, heedless of, insensible to, "he seemed impervious to the chill wind", impervious to insults, impervious to fear

Of course no one is impervious to anything really, or they would be dead... You need to be present and notice attacks, malicious intention, fear, pain, and everything that you need to protect yourself from.

The impervious we are talking about is the emotional unshakeability that spares you from a life of a roller coaster, from being reactive, from being judgmental, for going into despair or going to mania.

The kind of inner environment where you can actually have joy, contentment, and workability. Where you "horse" doesn"t run away with you, hijacking you at the slightest irritation.

I had an activator in the Second Phase Activators course... And I made it the very first one, because it is probably the most important capacity you can acquire. I called it the Lotus. The lotus is a swamp flower that grows out of mud and morass turning ugly into beauty, because it is impervious to ugly... it goes by its own "mind".

I used to have a life of roller coaster, in health, mental health, in success... Highs and lows alternated, and I pretty much felt like life took me through the spinning cycle of the washing machine, and left me limp and sick and suicidal periodically.

At some point I saw that no matter how much talent, diligence, curiosity, iron will you bring to life, if life takes you out, you"ll never amount to much.

What takes you out can be big and can be small. A sniffly cold, and you are gone. A co-worker"s snippy remark and you are gone for days. A failure in something... and you are gone, you give up.

Your TLB, your twitchy little bastard score and your imperviousness go hand in hand, in fact they are one and the same.

You trade in the stock market... and you sell too late, or you buy too late, too early... jump into conclusions, throw up your hands, cry "bloody murder"... and, of course you lose your shirt.

You are a musician. You only want to play with the best, because incompetence, slothfulness irritates you and brings you out of your cool.

You crave attention. You want to be loved, respected, appreciated, and this concern throws you to the curb more often than most people have breakfast.

You step on the bathroom scale and look at the number and you start the day with self-hate, or with celebration.

You never have "sober eyes"... everything means something, leading to drama and more drama.

You react. You may have a fixed way to react to irritation, difficulty, or "attack".

Some become docile... some become too nice... some become belligerent, argumentative, hostile... some weep, wail, mourn... some become frightened and spend days trying to figure out how to protect themselves from what they see may happen. some eat, drink, play computer games, sex, drugs, disappear...

You have your own non-winning way. It is fixed.

What is in common in all the non-winning ways: you are taken out of the game, taken out of the life, you are girl or boy interrupted.

I observe people and I notice that they are shrinking. They try to not show any vulnerability, any attackable surface to anyone... they are protecting themselves from being attacked.

They become small, bored, closed, uninspired... so they are looking for stimulation elsewhere. Because it is against human nature to be closed!

Everybody thinks that the culprit is outside of themselves. That it is other people, life that makes them react, makes them feel attacked, or would make them loved and cherished.

Everybody is ignorant of their role... inside.

In the new Playground we turn our attention to the inside.

Instead of trying to make life easy and unthreatening, we"ll make you stronger. How?

By revealing the inner mechanism that traps you, the inner mechanism that makes you so darn vulnerable, so darn jumpy, so darn scaredy cat, so darn ineffective and inefficient.

It is a long long long workshop. Why?

Because learning to

• 1. recognize


• 2. process


• 3. respond differently needs to be embedded in muscle memory... and it takes time, and lots of repetition.

It"s an 8% teaching course, and 92% learning course.

It"s the only one in the world.

I invented it in 1988 after a stint in a 12-step program I found really useful. So I built a program around the same non-threatening, practice-based system, and it worked brilliantly.

But even though I was the designer of the program, I lead the sessions, I benefited, some inner dynamic I didn"t see, didn"t witness and could not include in the original program.

In 1995, seven years after the first program, my mother died.

It threw me to the curb. I cried for six weeks. I could not work. I was languishing... until I could, one day, see the dynamic, and suddenly I, forever, became impervious to that type of grief. This dynamic is also included in the program.

Later I had two more attacks on my well-being... and they were both a different leaf from the same tree: looking totally different. I included those in this program too.

Nowadays I am 90% impervious to bad stuff, and that means it"s a rarity that I react... It happened once this year, and it"s September. And it lasted an hour or so... until I got myself extricated from the jaws of misery and upset. I can live with that frequency and that duration.

A little bit about the course or program:

I now have a little bit more time... so I will be able to run this inexpensive program longer than the previous ones, except the first one that ran for two years.

The longer the program runs, the more exposure you have to see how it works, what"s the enemy, and what"s the principle to disassemble the threat.

If you cannot make most of the live sessions, be prepared that you"ll only do mind-learning and it will be largely worthless. You are going to become a knowledgeable wretch.

Knowing about something and being able to do it in your sleep are two different things.

If you are someone who gets tired of a program... please don"t join the program, you"ll quit and I"ll surprise you: I won"t beg you to come back.

This program is only for those people who have enough inner drive to stick with it, to celebrate every learning moment so it gives them energy to go deeper, longer, and become a new breed of human.

That"s not you? Then please don"t come.

If you have been in the last Playground and you haven"t learned much of anything: you misunderstood the program. But it wasn"t the program"s fault: it was you. And most likely it is still you: you relate to everything that understanding is enough... it isn"t.

I want only the handful of people in the program who are convinced that life the way it is now with all its upsets is not really what they want to live... and they are willing to change.

A handful, I said... and I meant it. 3-6 people in a group. If the number grows larger, I"ll split the group.

I"ll also place people I deem a good match for that into pairs, so they can practice and practice and practice.

And Kawa, my creative student and I are working on a computer program to give you a little practice daily, so you can get to impervious faster.

OK, I hope I have scared enough people off, and excited the handful I want at the same time.

--->Here is the sales letter: it was written four years ago, so it"s a tad outdated... but you probably already know if it is for you and if you are for it.

The first session is tomorrow, September 8 at 4 pm New York time. I am working on opening up a weekday or Sunday group as soon as it makes sense.

You can sign up any time. The recordings are in the members" area, and you can catch up on the past sessions any time. The price is the same no matter when you sign up.

If you change your mind within three days, I"ll refund all your money. After three days all bets are off.

OK, go and read the sales letter... or if you know you want it: here is the payment button.



There is a payment plan... it is not a subscription. If you cancel or default, I"ll cut your access to the members" area.

Removing the leaks created by your inner habits, your attitude, your "how"

The current humanity, homo sapiens, is ignorant to the 90% of reality, the invisible reality. They are like a bunch of Missourians, the show me state... ((Missouri’s United States Congressman, Willard Duncan Vandiver. Back in the year of 1899 with a skeptical tone of voice, he spoke to Philadelphia’s Five o"clock Club saying the following:

"I come from a state that raises corn and cotton and cockleburs and Democrats, and frothy eloquence neither convinces nor satisfies me. I am from Missouri. You have got to show me."

The underlying meaning of his statement may be interpreted as: Missourians are not naïve - and if you wish us to believe you, convincing evidence has to be displayed. )) Building and changing the invisible habits

Most people judge by appearances, overt actions, your voice, your actions. But those cover only the top 10% of who you are.

The remaining 90% is invisible, sometimes even to yourself.

And as with everything in our 10% world, what defines how the 10% "manifests" is the 90%. ((Surprising to me is that even high achievers don"t know, don"t see what and how they do things, what is their attitude that makes them high achievers, or if they do, no one hears them.

T Harv Eker"s programs used to say: inner work for outer results, or something like that. But he knows very little about the inner world... because he focuses on the popular issue of a human: their minds. Of course he would: that is where the money is... Why? Because you have been brainwashed! You think the mind is the same as your brain power! And while you can"t tell the difference between the brain and the mind, you can"t tell the difference between your ass and a hole in the ground... Now please hate me... lol.

Or the other shyster, Christie Marie Sheldon who"ll disappear your blockages to wealth... I have to give it to her: she is a witch with considerable killing power: I suffer from it every day. But disappearing blockages to wealth? lol.))

Two people can do the exact same things, and produce strikingly different results inside and outside.

If you take two people, same physical characteristics, same looks, same age, same knowledge... maybe they are identical twins.

You give them a series of tasks, and ask them to do it with a different attitude: chop wood, prepare a financial statement, sell a piece of art, a horse feeding equipment, teach a dog to sit... anything really.

Their results will have 90% reflect their attitude. Their attitude towards themselves, towards the thing they are doing, towards you who gave them the tasks.

Yesterday"s article dealt with the invisible... the attitude.

I have a handful of students in the Reclaim program... and most of them wrote to me. Most of them dream about stuff... but none of them is doing anything or much to get better at what they do for a living.

Which results in a life they don"t love... of course.

I am not talking about the results of your work... I am talking about the doing of your work.

If you have your attention on your results, I can guarantee that you are not doing good work. You can"t... your inner eyes are not on what you are doing... So only a fragment of you, the automatic you is available... whereas to do good work, you need to apply yourself: all of you.

I love my life about 90% of the time... I love the doing part. I don"t love the result part. But when I do the doing, my attention is 100% on that, and I am grooving... even when i do mundane stuff, like updating stuff on 50 different websites I own. Repetitive, and could be boring... but it isn"t. It is a lot like cooking, or fishing, or sawing, or playing cards... every moment is slightly different, offering different challenges, so no chance to be bored.

The Zen monks say life is about cutting wood and carrying water. When you cut wood and carry water, you fantasize about dinner, or a trip to Tanzania, or think about needing a hair cut... The Zen monks give all their attention to what they are doing, and they are content, they are fulfilled.

I like Zen... it is taking back your power. Your power is with your attention, your power is with your attitude.

Of course, we live in the world. And the world is full of underachievers, busy underachievers who can"t shut up. Or listen to something or other all the time: nobody home.

If you want to live a life that is full of joy, where you love what you do, where you can love the people in your life, where you enjoy yourself... you need to learn the different unproductive attitudes and habits that take up your life.

There are quite a few. They are all in the Starting Point Measurements, but unless you really know how things work in the invisible, the Starting Point Measurements won"t help you: I have started to cut the number of characteristics I provide for people"s $15 to 11, instead of the original 27. They are happier... and I am happier.

Those 27 habitual ways of being (attitude habits) are practically about 5-6 distinct thinking habits.

In the upcoming Playground program we"ll deal with two of them: in the frequency and importance they cover 90% of the unproductive habits you can have. Amazing, isn"t it? ((In a webinar format, where I act as the moderator and occasional teacher, and the members of the group work with me, one-on-one. If you come to every session, and if you work with me every session, after just three session you got more private coaching with me than I offer in my private coaching sessions for a lot more money.

This program, because of the need to practice, will probably go for a long time.))

Of course, like with everything, knowing about these dynamics, these leaks, won"t make a difference. Doing them once... ditto.

Like with everything you need to practice and practice them right.

In the original Playground group (in 1988) the results started to really carry over people"s lives after a whole year, and blossomed after two.

It is penny wise and dollar foolish to not sign up... but then that is your life... isn"t it? Penny wise and dollar foolish.

If there are enough people I"ll open two groups...

And if you know a game developer, I"d love to talk to that person.

Yesterday I saw that the Andy Shaw outfit came up with a board game. Meh... But if I could come up with a game similar to EyeQ where one can practice the two fundamental "moves" daily, in a fun way, 5-6 minutes at a time, I think I may be able to say what Archimedes said: "Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world." Yeah... I would say that. Because the results for the players would be that significant.

I am reading a book, I don"t know if I"d recommend it yet, where an alien intelligence sets up a "game" to decimate humanity to create a group of a few million people who can achieve singularity and beat the superintelligence that threatens it.

If you don"t know beans about singularity and superintelligence, you are not alone... I don"t either. But when i look at my work, most of humanity isn"t going to take control of their inner world, their attitudes, their inner habits, because they are not interested.

If I had to guess, a few millions may.

And if I had to make up what is evolutionary singularity, I would say humans, homo sapiens, acquiring the ability and the states of beingness of "gods"... and this is what we are working on... this is what I am guiding my students to do. ((OK, I just spent three minutes reading what "they" say... Of course no one can see the unused potential in correcting the evolutionary/thinking mistakes of humans... so they go to Artificial Intelligence... But it"s still going in the wrong direction... ugh... I hope we"ll never live the future they are predicting.))

Just getting good at the two skills, the playground and choosing improves your life manifold and places you head and shoulders above the rest of humanity.

You"ll stop worrying about your vibration (result) and put your attention to what you are doing and how you are doing it... Watching the scoreboard will mire you in desire trap... And there is no hell more hellish than living in a desire trap.

I don"t want to be judged! you cry

Why would you think that someone will judge you? Simple... you have already judged yourself.

But why would you? Not everyone judge themselves. I, for example, don"t... or not often at all. I often assess myself, my behavior, my looks, my stuff... but assessment does not carry condemnation in it, and it doesn"t carry praise in it either.

What is the difference between judgment and assessment ((assessment: the evaluation or estimation of the nature, quality, or ability of someone or something. My starting point measurements are assessments, even if you take them as judgments. You add the judgment to my assessment!)) ?

The main difference is fixed mindset.

In judgment, the judging person lives as if there were a fixed good or bad, smart or stupid, right or wrong. And then they act as if they were assigned the job of judging...

So a high fixed mindset plus arrogance, superiority, plus high desire/low ambition numbers.

I have found that people with this combination are unable, unwilling, or resistant to do the work of the Playground.

The Playground is a very simple distinction: separating reality with what you say about it. Your opinion, your narrative, your story, your judgment. Being able to see that reality is reality, and what you say is what you say. No inherent connection between the two.

The moment you get it about any piece of reality, you have a chance to be free.

If you continue collapsing the two independent parts: what happened?/what is so? and your judgment about it, you"ll remain miserable.

This principle is expressed in Henry Ford"s statement: If you say you can, or if you say you can"t, you are right.

Both can and can"t are commentary, but what you see will be modified by your commentary, and that will hide the reality: that you either will or won"t.

   I watched Lincoln, the movie over the weekend, and it was quite obvious that this inability or unwillingness to see reality and your opinion, your reaction to it as separate and non-connected is largely missing for people: and it is the secret of human misery. Utter misery.

Every step that has taken me closer to become a happy person has been the result of gaining this clarity, little by little, this ability to separate and uncollapse reality and the interpretation of it. The "what it means"...

It is simple, but it is not easy.

On the way to happiness you"ll have to say good bye to your favorite complaints, your favorite woes... and admit that it was all made up.

Whether you made it up yourself, or took it, uncritically from others is immaterial.

If I asked you if you sat down on a quiet Sunday afternoon to meditate what would be the fastest and surest way to live a life of quiet desperation, to always be on the verge of utter unhappiness... you would say: no I didn"t do it.

And yet you maintain the behavior, the collapsing reality with the story...

The third Playground is scheduled to start in a few days, this coming Saturday, but I won"t start it if there are not enough participants.

It seems that freedom, happiness, grace and ease is not enough for most people to strive for... they want magic, and angels, and superhuman... and anything that will actually make you happy is not big enough for you. Hm.

By the way: Certain soul corrections are resistant to this separation... ((And here is a list of all the soul-correction numbers and their titles. I marked with one, two or three x"s the soul corrections that are especially resistant to transformation... a different way of seeing the world, namely uncollapsing what happened and what you said about it.

What is your soul correction?



))

If you have a soul correction that is marked with x, xx, or xxx on the list below, you"ll have a harder time to cause your transformation, because you feel like your life depends on remaining the same...

Look in your heart and see if you are willing to let go of your skin so you can live a life with a whole lot more happiness, fulfillment and a whole less of misery, complaints, and excuses why you are not all you can be.

And if you are, then register in the Playground. It is very inexpensive, it is once a month, and can produce the kinds of results ten thousand dollar courses can"t: because it concentrates all the energy and all the power on a sticky point, that when it lets go, the sun comes out.

I have seen it time and time again. It is like a miracle, a rebirth, a new lease on life.

If you"d like to do it, but the Saturday afternoon time is not good for you, please let me know. I am flexible.

OK. And here are a few useful quotes for you:

You"re not clever. You don"t know what you want. You have no proper fierceness.

John Steinbeck writes about the importance of individuality and creativity. "And this I believe: that the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world...And this I must against any idea, religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual...If the glory can be killed, we are lost.

"...a man"s importance in the world can be measured by the quality and numbers his glories. It is a lonely thing but it relates us to the world. It is mother of all creativeness, and it sets each man separate from all other man". this means that the greatness of a man depends on his deeds during his life, which is a sad fact. But these glories or deeds is what gives people individuality and creativeness. Those two traits ultimately makes humans human. It"s why we"re so special.

I don"t want to be judged! you cry

Why would you think that someone will judge you? Simple... you have already judged yourself.

But why would you? Not everyone judge themselves. I, for example, don"t... or not often at all. I often assess myself, my behavior, my looks, my stuff... but assessment does not carry condemnation in it, and it doesn"t carry praise in it either.

But these glories or deeds is what gives people individuality and creativeness. Those two traits ultimately makes humans human. It"s why we"re so special.

Generosity, choosing, gratitude

Generosity was one of the distinctions I spent years researching and trying to BE...

It is a tricky way to be, the full meaning of generosity, because almost no one ever is really generous.

We normally equate giving with generosity. Some give stuff, others give praise, some give of themselves.

Most generosity makes the recipient suspicious: what is the ulterior motive?

And rightly so: culturally, human culture, I mean, generosity doesn"t make sense... only trade does. "I give you this, so you"ll give me that."

And yet, there are a very few people who are actually generous, and they are happy. WTF, right?

Here is another important question: just like with love, whose experience matters, the giver or the receiver?

I have been teaching that the only way to experience love is to love. That you can only feel your own energy: I, in fact, never ever have felt love from another. Which doesn"t mean no one has loved me, I am talking about the experience.

So is there something similar with generosity?

That you experience generosity when you GIVE, not when you RECEIVE?

What does generosity, real generosity feel like?

Real generosity is a life changer.

The moment you are generous, really generous, in that moment, you have overcome ego, or the selfish gene... and you are in a space of abundance, as opposed to scarcity where most people live, where, maybe even you, live most of the time.

Scarcity says that there is something wrong. That you need all you got, and more. Money, love, freedom, liberty, respect, everything. That if you give it away, you"ll have less.

And it doesn"t matter how much you have, the dynamic is the same.

And scarcity is a tough master, it can torture you, and it won"t allow you to breathe freely.

So when you escape it for a moment, or through certain practices, for long stretches of time, maybe hours!, it is a major event.

Because you cross an invisible line, an evolutionary line, between human and human being... however long it lasts.

There are two other ways of being that we talk about frequently, that could be grouped with generosity, because without the leap to abundance they are as impossible as generosity.

These are gratitude and choosing.

Thanking someone isn"t gratitude, just like giving isn"t generosity. What makes it gratitude is the total disappearance of the precious "I" aka ego, for a little while.

And choosing is the same. What you choose is seemingly your enemy: reality. Reality with all its ugly events, bad things happening, etc.

Someone in a comment asked "What were you choosing in this article. ..."choose that", "choose it"

I am talking about nasty things that are happening to me, to my students, to the water, and everyone in between.

The idea to choose that to be the way it is is ludicrous: after all it feels like you condone it, your choosing it perpetuates it.

But that is scarcity thinking. When you resist, fight what is, you get frozen into that mood of resisting: misery. And sometimes you don"t even notice that it is gone...

But that is not the point that it"s gone. The point is to get out of your own way, and just embrace what is.

I have a favorite quote that it took me a long time to fully get... but it was worth it.

Arthur Miller – Take One"s Life in One"s Arms

I think it"s a mistake to ever look for hope outside of one"s self. One day the house smells of fresh bread, the next of smoke and blood. One day you faint because the gardener cuts his finger off, within a week you"re climbing over corpses of children bombed in a subway. What hope can there be if that is so? I tried to die near the end of the war. The same dream returned each night until I dared not to go to sleep and grew quite ill. I dreamed I had a child, and even in the dream I saw it was my life, and it was an idiot, and I ran away. But it always crept onto my lap again, clutched at my clothes. Until I thought, if I could kiss it, whatever in it was my own, perhaps I could sleep. And I bent to its broken face, and it was horrible... but I kissed it. I think one must finally take one"s life in one"s arms.

Arthur Miller
from the play After the Fall

Embracing what you don"t want, embracing your own life is the generous act of choosing.

Here is an interview with Keith Ferrazzi by Tai Lopez that says a lot of what I discovered in those years, and some.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pvk5Gl4M0eE

and here is more on generosity...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsuCFL-SQLg

and here is another one by James Altucher:

Dark side attack, hurry, and how choosing can save the day

What is a Dark Side event? Hard to know... but it is a lot like a locust swarm event... ((
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bx5JUGVahk
)) you see the aftermath, the people"s vibration dropping, bad behaviors that were already forgotten are revived, the water losing its coherence, inside you and outside you.

My own experience is quite dramatic: hurry has crept back... anger, anxiety, wallowing, and the water.

What is it about hurry that is harmful? All of it.

When you hurry, what makes you hurry is not something you want. You seems to be animated by a devilish dark energy, a hunger, a fear, that pushes you, and you are nowhere to be found.

You are breathless, you ignore details, you even ignore the experience, you are suddenly a puppet on a string.

The best illustration for the difference between hurry and no hurry style of fighting is the difference between a shaolin monk and a bar fight. Men in the bar fight are reacting to some ego stuff, and pifpuf try to place some blows on the "enemy".

The shaolin monks, or the Aikido masters stand and breathe... and when the action is most advantageous, they make a slight movement and decimate the opponent.

You can live your life like a bar-fight, and get very little done, very little life in it.

Hurry makes you make mistakes, miss important details... make you inefficient and ineffective. You always sit on the edge of the seat... you never settle in to do good work... The doing, the process become secondary behind the hoped for end result... and your work is shabby, below grade, and your life is filled with wanting and not having.

Worst of all: there is no beingness.

Beingness is when you experience yourself, and life as magnificent.

In a Dark Side event, a long Dark Side effect beingness is near impossible, you feel you live on borrowed time, and that forces you to hurry.

As I am sitting here writing this, I feel as the energy is pressing on my heart, and if I didn"t know what"s going on, I would go to the emergency room. But I know, and I just breathe.

There is nothing wrong with my heart, and I will be well once the attacks subside.

The secret to regain your control is to breathe. Slow down your breath which at this point is probably ragged. The depth of breath may not be there... but you can always control the speed, and the deep breath will come.

You cannot control fear, but you can always control the speed of your breath.

Forcing a deep breath is counterproductive: it also comes from hurry... don"t do it. Never force anything... I mean it.

By the way, I have observed that these Dark Side Events always coincide with some major holiday, this time Labor Day in the USA.

I am not a holiday person, but a friend explained to me that people are not in their everyday environment, not doing their everyday activities, like work, and they become more vulnerable. I don"t know.

But if you consider holidays important, then the Dark Side events lower the quality of your life more than not having any holidays at all.

What else can you do so you can suffer no permanent damage by the Dark Side event?

You can choose things the way things are.

The water is losing its coherence. Fast. In every country. And you"ll be duller, less coherent, and will have less energy... for a few days.

Choose it. It"s like choosing a storm... while the storm is going on. If you resist it, it will kill you.

It seems that the "mites" love the Dark Side energy: in spite of doing all the things I have been doing, their activity and their numbers suddenly through the roof.

It"s taken me many hours to choose that. Maybe I haven"t quite chosen it...

Choosing is the hardest and most counter intuitive transformational move of all the moves. Choosing is more than allowing. Choosing is more than accepting. Choosing is like embracing... embracing what you don"t want. Ugh...

But if you want to be well, if you want to be high vibration, you must.
