The best method of learning is not linear. It is holographic. Your picture always contains the whole picture… even if it is still fuzzy… so the context is already set. You know where and how things fit in the big picture. Miko brings up a topic that can lead us to some useful learning practices, […]
Your life is like a boat on sea… Where it’s going is given by the drift 96%
Every learning is becoming. Every action that is aimed at learning but doesn’t lead to becoming… is not learning, it is just a pretense. Treading water. The drift. But becoming is not easy, and it takes longer than you would expect. OK, longer than I expect. Longer than I have been expecting… 🙁 Why? because […]
Change your perspective asking questions that upset your status quo
In the 67 steps there is a method to make decisions using a calculator. Nine out of ten students skip it, the one that does it does it shabbily. Students won’t do it or won’t do it right even after I send them back to do it. Why? Because the method uses questions that you

Everything You Ever Wanted Is Coming To You Through Other People.
Henry David Thoreau wrote The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. What is the meaning of desperation? Desperate means “having lost all hope.” … If you are in a desperate situation, …

Clarity is power, but meaningless and powerless on the Tree of Knowledge.
But on the Tree of Life clarity is the main component of having a winning life. Clarity, on the Tree of Life, is finding the cause of an effect… Once you know the cause, you can play with it like … Continue reading
Who and what is making your decisions, your attitude, your behavior?
From time to time a student or client confides in me that they resent being told what to do. I find that really funny, especially when they paid me well for telling them what to do. But such is human … Continue reading
The connection between your vocabulary and your deserving factor
The connection between the number of words you can correctly use in writing or in speaking and your intelligence, your worth a damn factor, and your deserving the good life… or not.
I am a reader. I read a lot. But yet, a whole new world opened up for me when I started to read on the Kindle. Why? Because it has a built in dictionary. As a result, I have added, to date, 2,000 words to my vocabulary.
It was very cumbersome to read with a dictionary before… I would lose my place, etc.
But the Kindle has made it possible.
I find the word… but sometimes the word in the dictionary is not useful.
I am reading Seneca, the person with whom my teaching of how to live life, how to be happy, i
Can you be delusional? I bet you have never thought that about yourself…
Most of the things I find out were in front of me, in plain sight, but I could not see it.
As I am going deeper and deeper into teaching people to feel their feelings, so they can return to the Tree of Life, I am on uncharted territory. I encounter stuff that has always been there… and in this new context it hits me funny… weird… illogical… counter intuitive: to me.
Whenever I see things from the level I am, most of the things I see are things I have never had, and therefore they are new to me. Unfamiliar… Alien.
Such is the thing i want to write now: the delusion that you need to meet everyone’s expectation of you.
That it is your duty to be good enough for everyone, fast enough, smart enough, deep enough, pretty enou
Sadness. Tree of Life, Tree of Knowledge… more about what gives you what kind of life
I just exchanged emails with the author of the Feelings book, Gyozo Margoczi.
Gyozo means Winner, or Victor in Hungarian… someone who wins over something or someone.
My name: Sophie, means Wisdom.
Names can be taken two ways:
- 1. you are that
- 2. you need to become that
He wrote the books. Major accomplishment. Big win… mostly like a tree falling in a forest that didn’t make a sound because there was no one to hear it… until I came along.
Now I am taking what I learned from him, and still learn through the emails, and I am running with it.
He is stuck in his 9-5, family, financial obligations.
I have only one job: this.
I wrote to him saying that it seems it is m
People Who Are Good At Recognizing Emotions Make More Money
Everybody writes about recognizing other people’s emotions, or recognizing your own emotions… but that is talking about the 14th floor in a building that stands in thin air… They write about what they know… because no one knows there is a missing 13th floor, because the science isn’t built for the 13th floor, or not quite. It has begun by a nobody in Hungary… And the science is valid. ((Read the books.))
The 13th floor is the floor of feelings. And the whole world of feelings we have been discouraged to explore, no one teaches it, because a person who is grounded in their feeli
