Why can’t you be deliberate? Deliberate practice… mastery… sound so good!

Deliberate… the opposite of sloppy, floppy, mindless way you now operate

We are all big on what to do… what to eat, what to read, what this and what that… and no one is teaching us how… I don’t necessarily mean the moves… that is not how, that is still what.

The how is somewhat invisible.

Easy… that is a how.
Sloppy, floppy, mindless… these are all hows.
And you guessed right: deliberately… is a how that very few people even begin to know.

So when you watch a youtube video, or an Olympic athlete, you see easy, grace, but you don’t see deliberate.

I am old, and finally I decided to live to the end of my life expectancy, which, obviously requires of me some different

Enough

I wrote this article in 2011… and by accident I stumbled on it again. there are 3500 articles on this blog… but there are no accidents. This distinction is a big missing for people…

I have been working on a new activator. I have tested it now with five testers. There is a new and exciting capacity in it, that I would like to share with you.

The activator is called “enough.”

… as in being enough, having enough, doing enough. Smart enough, knowledgeable enough, pretty enough, well-spoken enough, etc. etc. etc.

Nowadays, if you are like me, you find yourself fragmented. You are not able to focu

Are you a money magnet? If not, read this article

What would put you into the vibration of money? Or why are you repelling money?

Summary: 90% of what keeps you in money, or what repels money from you are you attitudes towards people, including yourself.

It is not vibration, per se… but people feel it. And they refuse to give you money.

The solution is to develop attitudes more conducive, more attractive, more inviting to money.

Most of my courses are about that… Changing your attitudes…

The article below may be too scholarly for most of you…

What is blocking

What the heck is the worth a damn factor, what is yours, and how do you raise it?

My declared purpose is: I work to raise the truth value of people’s world view and consequently raise their vibration. This article is, seemingly, not about truth value and not about vibration… it is about your worth a damn factor ((Here is a video from Tai:

The expression is from Tai Lopez’s 67 Steps Program. The expression is interchangeable with Charlie Munger’s deserving factor… how much reward you deserve for your efforts. Many people think that deserving is their god given right… and maybe in god’s view you are deserving. But in a world, in an economy, you need to earn what you want to get… We are talking about that kind of deserving. Creating value that others are

What you don’t know that you don’t know

If you are like me at any point you think that what you know is how it is. And that makes you stuck.

Here is what happened that woke me up from this seductive illusion that what I know is so.

I have been fascinated with nut butters. OK… nothing fancy in that…

I bought a machine to make nut butters, and it was a tedious job: 90% of the time was scraping the wall of the bowl… or the machine would run as if it were empty.

My commercial Vitamixer died a few years ago, and it could not be fixed… Vitamix came out with a brand new design.

Then I suddenly needed to make nut butter… instead of just being fascinated: I learned that I am viol

What does reading your email do to you… ok, what does it do to me… A deep look…

I am working on something important to me. In fact two things I have two things I am working on: what I teach and how to put myself in the position to have more people to teach… These are important things to me.

So I get up, as always, shuffle to my computer, make my first come of tea with hemp and butter, and tackle my students’ emails…

But then I make a mistake. I look at my email from Medium, and I can feel as I am being dragged away from what is important to me. I am not on the straight and narrow… I am on someone else’s agenda.

And although that agenda may be informative, helpful, close to mine… it is still their agenda… and the further I go from what is important to me, the harder it will be to find my w

How do you know what you are afraid of? Why you are afraid… even when you have no reason to be.

what are you afraid of?It was 1991. Georgia… some miles from Atlanta, in a hunting lodge. November. Communication Commando Course.

Just the name was enough to put the fear of god in me. But then they ushered me in this little room where I needed to answer some questions about myself, name, age, where I live, who I live with… in front of a camera.

Now, by that time I had been on television twice, seen and recognized by millions of people. And yet, I was terrified.

What was I afraid of?

This is what this article is about… what is it that you are afraid of, that you cannot tell what it is, but it is as real as that if they keep you underwater long enough, you’ll be dead. Dead dead….

I scanned an article this aft

What is the level of your awareness? awareness of what’s going on, inside and outside

you don't know your ass from a hole in the groundFirst let me digress… If you search this question of google, you’ll find out that not many people even know what this question means, what awareness means… They confuse and collapse consciousness and awareness… It’s like they don’t know shit from shinola…

OK, back on track: If you went back to your high school class and were given the opportunity to pick one person. And you would get 10% of their earnings for your lifetime. How would you pick? Would you pick yourself?

There are many criteria you can choose by.

According to the 67 steps, the level of awareness is the most telling of

What if you find that your word has no power?

One of the hardest things for anyone is to know themselves. [note]Thousands give lip service to this commandment, and pretty much none of them knows how to do it.

I do this for a living, holding up a mirror to people’s eyes so they can see themselves. And yet I learn new things in nearly every conversation.

For example: know what pushes your buttons. Know it intimately. That is an incredibly valuable guidance t
