just woke up, just water, wore black (Great), no food, no coffee before, energizing awesome convo. good. I saw a darren brown and david tennant clip (for darren’s tv show) and I relized that they went out into public to have a woman draw a picture and david was supposed to have predicted what she’d draw, but the interesting thing was how it almost seemed like david and darren were competing for the woman’s attention to impress her! LOL these two HUGE awesome dudes and names (darren brown and david [...]
inspiration
The historical 2004-2008 category that emphasizes (quite naturally) things and events that are poignant and inspiring!
Easier exercise, better temperature, smoother reading, and improved home. How? Law of Contrast!
Question. You’re drinking a cup of lukewarm tea? You want to have it taste warmer. How do you make it taste warmer without a stove, microwave or anyway to heat the tea?? Think about this. It’s a riddle. Now the answer to our riddle as you may have guess. Answer: You drink a cup of frigid icewater!! Seriously, try this is it’s amazing. The contrast principle seriously does work on a neurological level as well as perceptive level. If you have a bowl of lukewarm water that you want to [...]
I like to swim upstream and my Future is my Past
I like to swim upstream. What this means? Life is a circular mote flowing downstream. Life’s a gigantic circular mote. Most people float and surrender to the currents’ of life’s river. And the unaware people don’t pick up on the fact that it’s merely one gigantic circle they keep revolving in. I’ve surrendered. I’ve let life’s river take me, twirl me around, slosh me into addictions and fixations incredibly dangerous places, and spit me out on the bank of nowhere with Nothing. I’ve touched my shadow. I’ve done all the [...]
No More Religious Board Games! Anti-Christianity and Human Herbivore!
Finally, the best article on (anti) Christianity that I needed to read to reaffirm my new intentions, emerging beliefs, and values (Basically I’ve realized that all religions are just clever cult-worshipping myths. They’re just elaborate myths, fables. Jesus isn’t any different from the Hare in the tortoise and the hair or Buddha isn’t any different from Prometheus (the god of fire from ancient greece). Religions are myths. They are not true. Jesus, Buddha, Allah…they never existed. That however is not condemning hope and faith. Hope and faith are very strong [...]
Getting And Staying Organized with UMSD
Basically this specific part is messy and infected with a lot of David Allen’s GTD muck. Frankly GTD is too bloated of an organizational system; you take on a lot of crap you don’t need if you use it. It has some great concepts but as a whole the system sucks. So I’m on the process of writing up details of my own system. For computers, it basically uses all online documents, almost all documents on hard drives are backups. It consolidates consolidates consolidates!! All like files. It gets all [...]
NLP Associated/Dissociated State
“A state is our way of being in any moment It comes from our physiology.thinking and emotions, and is greater than the sum of its parts. Weexperience states from the inside, but they have external markers that canbe measured from the outside, like a particular frequency of brain waves,pulse rate, etc. But none of these can tell you what it is like to feel angryor to be in love. “Oconnor.SOOOO TRue. so awesome!!! OMG so helpful. My baseline state changed in 00 (after meeting the devil worshipper bitch maya). Before [...]
The Human Race as Rogue
The human race is vagrant. It’s designed to be vagrant. We originated in Kenya. We’ve traveled, we’ve roamed. We’re itinerant. Vagrancy shouldn’t have a negative connotation. And neither should rogue – someone without a master, without consistent income, without land, without legitimate trade, but is healthy. A rogue can sound like freedom. The human race by nature is evolving rogue. We’re moving more and more into transitioning towards alternative habitation other than earth! ARTICLE . People on Maldives are planning to relocate due to rising sea levels from global warming [...]
Declining Invitations Gracefully
Staying On Top of the Game: Declining Invitations Gracefully Treat every invitation as a mere compliment and that way declining the invitation is a lot easier to do!! When someone invites you to a group, a party, an event, or to be a member that’s a MASSIVE compliment!! They’re saying “hey, we like you, we can tell you’re a good person, we want to interact with you more often or on a regular basis”. So often very nice and grateful people find it difficult to decline invitations they can’t accept [...]
POP Suite Part 4: Electronic Organization and "Brain Trust" Part 2
If there’s one thing I have to say about electronic organization, it’s this: close open loops FAST! I’ve surfed the net many a time and accumulated 8 open windows, and over 30 tabs in less than an hour. That’s a lot to sort through. Just develop the habit of executing lightning-fast decisions to quickly archive, capture, delete, discard, dismiss, are do things that catch your interest. In fact, the general rule of thumb should be “nothing should catch your interest for too long!” Okay, I speak a lot about soft-copy [...]
POP Suite Part 4: Electronic Organization and "Brain Trust" Part 1
Welcome back to the Productivity and Organizational Progress (POP) Suite. Today we’re talking about electronic organization. We’re jumping straight to the nitty gritty here. In today’s age, “paper-based organization” is an incredibly small percentage of the organization management we conduct; mostly all of it is electronic. I think the best first step in structuring and organizing your electronic management first starts with “contexts” of electronic. By “context” in e-management we do not mean “store”, “house”, “office”, etc, but rather applications! Just capture all your contexts for these types of information [...]
Remember Some Old Art Projects
Here’s a desk I painted my Junior year of Highschool. And this was the year-long art project of (I think) 4th grade and 6th grade, respectively. I’d done pinch pots, but The canvas one was an amazingly cool effect (painting over your masterpiece black and then scratching off to reveal color) So worthwhile and good to have these memorabilia archived!
Productivity & Organizational Progress Suite 1: Intro Part 2
[2)Some solutions people have have just so much absence of logic and lack of practicality imbedded in them it's hilarious.] Cont… I’m seriously thinking of submitting “Stupidest Productivity Ideas” to some kind of segment for the Jay Leno Show. I hear people rave and talk about how these “productivity systems” work so magically well, when they’re really wrought with stupidity and inefficiency. One of my favorites of this category is Google Notebooks. Laughing at other methods. Here’s a “genius” method I’ve seen people raving over. What is with it with [...]
Productivity & Organizational Progress Suite 1: Intro Part 1
Thus begin the first installment of the Productivity & Organizational Progress (POP) Suite. Stay tuned for the next 5 (or more) installments detailing everything from organizational mastery within email, on the homefront, within your office, how to douse email insanity, and get clear and stay clear on your todos… This may be one of the most curmedgeonly posts in the history of blogging. Okay, that’s a little extreme, but this does have a critical flavor to it. One of the most brilliant “insulters” of the 20th century was Roald Dahl. [...]
Remembering the 90s…Music Videos
I first discovered MTV in the 90s. Once the 21st century hit, I had peeled off into other interests, and if I hit up the MTV Channel post-90s I usually get bombarded with some rapper I don’t know decorated in “bling” or some odd band whose acoustics don’t really tickle my fancy. I’m not some geezer reminiscing on “Sonatra days” but I do have a repertoire of “Old School” music videos by which I felt utterly entranced by in the early 90s. In addition to watching a music video being [...]
Essentials for Life health
Exercise Math Finances — quicken, numbers Reading my books Why? Exercise creates body-mind mastery. Math is just fun and uplifts the quality of your thinking organizing all “muck”. Finances is freedom and stuff you eNJOY focusing on because it gives you awareness of your expenses and reading my books is more mind-body master because that connects your own truisms and principles with your understanding. And swimming is the best for exercise because you can “hammer” out in swimming and not injure your body. What kind of math is best? Any [...]
True Love Is Psychotic
True love, that genuine rare art form, is ultimately psychotic. Learn to love the wild. Embrace the rifts, tides, and currents of that change. Create your unknown and then live to understand your reality. Truth is subjective; discover your own wisdom and comprehend the desires of your intrinsic beauty. This should function as a wake-up call for all your music. No more snooze or booze; time to use your capacity for that rhythmic sagacity.
Hinduism: Siva, Kali, and Tantra
update 20111011: fail religion rubbish. After sparking up an older email connection with a college religion professor, I recently found some facts about Hinduism fascinating. Siva, for example, according the the mythology, Siva rides around on this Bull, Nandi, wherever he goes. Siva also carries this trisula (trident) weapon; functions as the Destroyer lord (or the whole shebang Destroyer, Creator, and Sustainer god to some Saivites) and the Lord of Dance. Parvati and Siva gave birth to the God of good fortune, Ganesha, who has the elephant head. Parvati, [...]
Manufacturing the Dream-Reality Passage
“Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, your life becomes a broken-winged bird that cannot fly” – Langston Hughes I don’t have an interest in being an Olympic athlete; I don’t have an interest in being a millionaire. Those would be fantastic achievements, and if they happened, I certainly would be excited and appreciative. But those are not my dreams. Those are my father’s dreams, my mother’s dreams, dreams of close friends; my brother and I are very closer so many of those are his dreams – but not [...]
Manufactured Time & Infinite Time
Man made time – man manufactured time — by counting tallies etched in stone and examining the solar and lunar phases, thousands of years ago. The ancient Mayans and Aztecs used advanced astronomy towers to accurately use the sun (which, due to physics) reliably showed the source of time it took for earth to complete one revolution in the solar system. Because of Newton’s first law: An object in motion, stays in motion; and an object at rest, stays at rest” the earth, with no friction in space, has constant [...]
Poignant Persons of Other Realms
Despite the bizarreness of the interrogation and the fact that this inquiry ranks quite highly on the “oddity scale”, you should ask this. I guess you have to ask it now. This is quite an peculiar inquiry. However, while some irrationally classify it as mystical, Oiji board, cheesy BS, this communication is practiced by highly-successful individuals. The practice is staying in touch with those who’ve transferred to different realms. Do you still communicate with dead relatives or close friends? Do you check in and share your news or ask for [...]
To Panacea or Not to Panacea, that is the Question
Dreams and Non-Dreamers Of the two archetypal life trajectories — abandoning dreams for fear of residing in fantasy or accepting the risk of visions and carving a reality for seemingly wild aspirations — the former is reliable and stable, but ultimately mundane, while the latter has its own vibe and frequency, its own unique risks, and a distinct robustness. The positive outcome of abandoning dreams as hogwash drivel is that one can quickly plan their life. Without a focus on dreams, one’s life may be robotic or inhuman, but there [...]
