#3 WANT IT ALL? THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY!

The ego always tells us the opposite of what is actually true from the perception of God/Source. And it always thinks in terms of ‘EITHER-OR.’ Either we have to be nice all the time or speak our mind and be a bad person. Either we are rich and evil or poor and righteous. Either be loved and accepted but a doormat OR be rejected but not allow ourselves to be used. These are but a few of the many fear based EITHER/OR beliefs we hold (mostly in our subconscious) that create the current reality we e… Continue

And the really big frustration of most is this truth; the majority of motives are hidden deep into the unconscious! So how do we know what ours and others motives are? There are only two ways…..watch and wait for the results! ‘By the fruit (result) we know them (motive.) the other way is to learn how to discern truth for ourselves. We have been told for thousands and thousands of years WHAT to believe and never taught HOW to discern truth for ourselves. Now, there is a way to know how BEFORE wai… Continue

#1: WANT TO RECOGNIZE YOUR SOUL MATE WHEN YOU FIND THEM?

What every person seeks, searches, aches and yearns for… is to fall in love. To REALLY fall in love. To find that special ‘someone’ who sees, knows, accepts and loves them in a profound way and be able to give the same in return. We have been told that that incredibly heady and highly desirable experience and feeling, is NOT real and is only fleeting infatuation. But the truth is it is that this experience is the ONLY thing that IS real. It is the moment in which we see and reflect the highest a… Continue

What Makes a Good Bad Guy

What Makes a Good Bad Guy? Getting your readers to hate the bad guy is much easier than getting them to sympathize with them. True, you may want to give your villain some redeeming qualities, but if your character does something truly loathsome, your readers will never forget. Some of the most memorable villains will often cause their victims to suffer in either their body or mind. Think about some of the most notorious bad guys, and you’ll see what I mean. Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over The C… Continue

Some advice to people trying to sell me a book or service

How to appeal to me and peak my interest: Do not post a blatant advertisement in my comment section or in my email inbox; this is the quickest way to get me to delete you and/or ignore you. I find this a touch rude; if you want me to read your ad, at least say hello first. A line or two of "nice page", "thought you might be interested in this" etc. goes a long way to getting me to read and check out what you have sent. It never hurts to be polite. It pays to make a good first impression, and… Continue

The Terrorist Attack on Mumbai, India and the Media

By Ben Furman, former FBI Counterterrorism Chief Here are my thoughts about the media coverage of the terrorist attack on Mumbai, formerly Bombay, India. The media, as it often does, caused my blood pressure to skyrocket by its soft-pedaling of the identification of the terrorist attackers as Muslims. I guess reporting this fact was something it considered offensive and politically incorrect. But this reporting by omission follows the media’s template of not calling terrorists “terrorists” for… Continue
