9 Mind-Bending Epiphanies That Turned My World Upside-Down | Spirit Science and Metaphysics. Over the years I’ve learned dozens of little tricks and insights for making life more fulfilling. They’ve added up to a significant improvement in the ease and quality of my day-to-day life. But the major breakthroughs have come from a handful of insights that completely rocked my world and redefined reality forever. The world now seems to be a completely different one than the one I lived in about ten years ago, when I started looking into the mechanics of quality of life. It wasn’t the world (and its people) that changed really, it was how I thought of it. Maybe you’ve had some of the same insights.
Or maybe you’re about to. 1. The first time I heard somebody say that — in the opening chapter of The Power of Now — I didn’t like the sound of it one bit. I see quite clearly now that life is nothing but passing experiences, and my thoughts are just one more category of things I experience. If you can observe your thoughts just like you can observe other objects, who’s doing the observing? 32 Pictures That Will Change The Way You See The World. Aversion to Happiness Across Cultures: A Review of Where and Why People are Averse to Happiness. Is Work Necessary? I saw this bouncing around Facebook, and I would like to endorse the underlying philosophy: For those of you still using text-based browsers (hey, remember Lynx?) , here we have Buckminster Fuller making a point about work and responsibility in a high-tech society.
Namely: maybe people don’t have to work. Maybe, if machines become really good at producing the basic necessities of life, rather than bemoaning a loss of jobs we should celebrate our liberation from the toil of labor. As a practical matter, I recognize that this might be hopelessly utopian. It amounts to saying that we should have fairly high taxes, and redistribute most of the money as a minimal income to every person.
Nothing wrong with working and earning additional money, but everyone would get their personal share no matter what, and in principle that might be enough to live on. But nevertheless the spirit is admirable, and that’s what I want to endorse. Search. 9 Signs You’re An Old Soul. “How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?” ~ Satchel Paige There is a special kind of person in our world who finds himself alone and isolated, almost since birth. His solitary existence isn’t from a preference or an antisocial temperament – he is simply old. Old in heart, old in mind and old in soul, this person is an old soul who finds his outlook on life vastly different and more matured than those around him.
The “Old Soul” Robert Frost, Eckhart Tolle and even Nick Jonas have been called them. If you have not yet discovered whether you’re an old soul, read some of the revealing signs below. 1. Because old souls are disinterested in the pursuits and interests of the people in their age groups, they find it dissatisfying to make friends with people they find it hard to relate to. 2. Yep … this seems a little grandiose and overly noble, but the old soul finds himself naturally gravitating towards the intellectual side of life. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

3 Ways to Market Your Content to Millennials.

Especially if you’re still relying on traditional delivery methods like email marketing and display ads.
According to analytics and research firm SDL’s latest global study, millenials favor social channels over email when it comes to sharing content: They also discover new shareable content on social networks and customizable news feeds like Buzzfeed, while search engine and email content come in dead last at capturing their attention.

Evolution of Conciousness. By Susan Meindl Recent research by social psychologist Elaine Aron and her team describes a set of human characteristics which she calls “high sensitivity.” Her research suggests that approximately 15-20% of the human (and for that matter animals) have evolved to be markedly more responsive to their environment. It is not that these “highly sensitive people” (HSPs) are gifted with super-hearing or hyper-acute vision but rather, that they have nervous systems and minds which permit more stimulation to enter without automatically and unconsciously shutting it out, and further, that they then cognitively process the stimulation that they receive in more detail than others do.
What do we mean by “stimulation? Stimulation comes in on all sensory channels: sights, sounds, smells, vibrations, touch. HSP’s typically respond strongly and quickly reach their natural level of tolerance in loud, bright or chaotic environments. Five kinds of over-stimulation which can contribute to depression.

Last week, I wrote about the challenge of doing the right things vs. the nice things. As simple as the idea is, it can be far more complicated in real life. Sometimes it’s hard to discern – which is the right choice?
This question of right things vs. nice things is not an esoteric discussion. The ability to do the right things is predicated on our ability to discern the right things. Leaders who consistently do the right things will separate themselves from other leaders. Here are a few considerations when you’re trying to separate the right things from the nice ones. What are you paid to do? What are your goals? What are the long-term implications? What were you made to do? What does your gut tell you to do? As I mentioned last week, my challenge is often finding the courage to do what I know I should do. Here’s the bottom line… To maximize our impact we’ve got to trade the nice things for the right things.

Note: There are many different sorts of paradoxes. Most of the paradoxes referred to here would be categorized as dialethia. © 2007, 2008 Jonathan Zap Edited by Austin Iredale “Words that are strictly true seem to be paradoxical.” —Lao-tse “There is nothing absolute and final. “Objection, evasion, joyous distrust, and love of irony are signs of health. Dynamic paradoxicalism is my attempt to create a meta-philosophy that is a counter to fundamentalist and absolutist thought, which is nearly as common amongst New Agers and the Left as it is amongst religious fundamentalists and the Right. Dynamic paradoxicalism is based on the the principle that the opposite of a profound truth is often another profound truth. “Bohr challenged another scientific shibboleth in 1927 by proposing that opposites were not necessarily either/or, as all earlier Western dualistic thinkers had assumed, but rather might be both/and.
“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. Adapting to Circumstance vs. Huh? Ten ways to be a great host. Between high school and college I went to school in England and stayed often with a family in London. The parents, Tim and Caroline Gladstone, were the kindest and best hosts I've ever encountered. Whenever I rang their doorbell, Caroline would greet me, welcome me right in the door with my dirty backpack from the train station or airport, and ask me whether I wanted to eat first or wash up.
While this seemed like an odd question the first time I showed up at their door, I soon realized that it was the BEST one and accurately captured the two greatest areas of need or discomfort I could possibly have upon any arrival. For the record, I usually took the bath. Caroline would then proceed to set me up with the further instructions that Tim and she would meet me afterwards in the dining room to hear about everything I'd done, at which time, they'd also give me their complete schedule for the next few days. 10 Ways To Be A Great Host 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13.
All of my blogs are inspired by something. Something I read, a conversation I had, a video I watched, something someone did, or often said. It’s a Vesica Pisces, which I wrote about in this blog. Todays blog is a combination of several of these things. You see, i recently watched a video on Youtube of a Q&A with a man I have grand respect for, talking about the shift in consciousness that we’re experiencing on this planet. I don’t want to say who it is, for i’m not sure that’s important. What is important that what he said was basically that the shift is going to happen sometime in the next few years, and we pretty much just gotta wait for it, and if nothing happens, then all of the mayans and prophecies are wrong.
As I was sitting there, listening to that… It got me thinking… I need to write a blog about this. I know, I used to say the exact same thing, and as i’ve been growing over the past year, my understanding of it has changed quite a bit. It’s up to all of us to change this world. September 20, 2013. Why We Feel Lonely, Part 1 | infp Blog Why We Feel Lonely, Part 1 | Thoughts on the INFP Personality Type from an INFP. A boy goes to his mom and says, “I’m bored.” The mom replies, “Then you should stop being boring.” This lesson applies in different variations. If I’m lonely, then I stop being alone. In my early 20′s, I thought loneliness stemmed from feeling disconnected, and that disconnection was caused by having no people in my life who really understood me. It took me a decade before I realized that we don’t feel lonely because we’re disconnected. I was trying to fix the wrong problem.

Problems Make Us Feel Alone 1. 2. 7 Ways That You (Yes, You) Could End Up On A Terrorist Watch List. Earlier this week, The Intercept published a 166-page document outlining the government's guidelines for placing people on an expansive network of terror watch lists, including the no-fly list. In their report, Jeremy Scahill and Ryan Devereaux highlighted the extremely vague and loosely defined criteria developed by 19 federal agencies, supposedly to fight terrorism.
Using these criteria, government officials have secretly characterized an unknown number of individuals as threats or potential threats to national security. In 2013 alone, 468,749 watch-list nominations were submitted to the National Counterterrorism Center. It rejected only 1 percent of the recommendations. Critics say the system is bloated and imprecise, needlessly sweeping up thousands of people while simultaneously failing to catch legitimate threats, like Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
