Today’s article will be illustrated differently. I’ll use unrelated funny pictures… like the New Yorker magazine does.
Why? One of the ways I have opened up my tiny box is reading humorists’ take on the world. See the funny in everything. In every single thing.
Another way to open up your small box is to read, watch good movies or TV series from different cultures.

Poke the box, the non-holographic nature of all-of-it and the corrupting nature of power.
I wrote this article in 2012… Some things I have changed my mind about…
A lot of people are amazed that I can write a long article seven days a week… that is my standard production.
Do you know what is the difference between me and them? I bet you can’t even guess… lol.
Unless, of course, you have read the book by Seth Godin, Poke the Box
Poking the box is the difference.
My article writing teacher says that the way to write a good article is to have three topics and let people know what they are, ahead of time.
This is the same dude who takes three months of vacation every year… maybe he knows something most don’t, and therefore it is worth listening to him?
So here are the three topics:
1. work-life balance: how the masses are wrong
2. your straitjacket… a detrimental early decision
3. what you eat… how it makes you ill or keeps you well.

What is the important job I am supposed to do now, that is so urgent that I am banned from measuring people’s vibration?
The job, guiding people, humanity, to the next evolutionary step, has been anything but a straightforward, linear progression.
It’s a team job, Source, my core group, and I, are working as a close-knit team. Partners in trouble… as the Hungarian word, bajtars would say it.
All morning this song was humming in my head… my only real tie to my first 34 years: songs. Not any kind of songs, songs to encourage the proletariat to fight on. And although that fight is gone, although I don’t believe in the ideas of communism any more, the core values those songs taught me are still valid, and rare in the world.
One of those is this “bajtars” idea, being partners in trouble, partners in life. In English I would say like this: “we’ve been in the trenches together.” Trenches of war, where I watched your back and you watched mine. Where we faced certain death together. Where, maybe, we starved together, we risked together, but not each other, no, together.
I wrote this article 2011… even with the rewrite it has notions I no longer consider, it has mentions of stuff I have completely eliminated from my teaching. But it is worth reading: it probably bridges to the general public than my newer articles…
What is higher vibration?
How would you know it? How would you feel it? Why would you want it? What is this thing about?

Audio introduction by me:
I have been anguished by the inability of my clients to abide by their food list and make it fully satisfying… Result: their well being tops off at 10%, while mine is 70%.
I saw an article that suggests that following recipes is way inferior to knowing how to cook, knowing the patterns, the principles, the methods, the science and the art of preparing food. I republished that article here Cooking Jazz
Preparing food and your relationship to it is a ‘how’, not a ‘what’. And how you do anything is how you do everything, remember?
If your relationship to food, to the preparation, to cooking is in one way, we’ll find the same one way in other areas of life. So pay close attention to what is your relationship to cooking: this can be life altering.
The scenic route of getting some teaching, and making it your own.
Making it nurturing, life affirming tree of life knowledge
I want to share a phenomenon, that, hopefully, will get clearer as I am sharing it. At the moment I can only see its visible aspect. I am almost certain it has an invisible aspect as well.
I read about three hours a day. Something that isn’t connected to my work: fiction.
But recently I have taken on a 20-day challenge: listen to 20 episodes of a Hungarian psychologist, Dr. Peter Popper, in his Mesterkurzus (master course) series, an hour long each.
Excellent, fascinating, the dude is both a psychologist, a university professor, a clinician, AND a religion expert… whatever that means.

You’ve got to define what’s enough for you. And that is what you should aim for
Until you do that, you are dealing with too much freedom. To much freedom often leads to unclarity, to confusion, or inaction, where fear, ego, delusion rule.
It is smart to define that and it takes smarts to define the dance floor where you can win.
What is winning?
Winning always needs a game.

My trials and tribulations to find an alcohol-free way for you to get your remedy…
I like the taste of a little brandy in my water or in my tea. I would not want it in my coffee (I like mine with cream!) but I could probably live with it.
But I would not want my boyfriend to drink my remedy in a moment of extreme thirst for alcohol.
I don’t have a boy friend, if you are now wondering. But I did have one, and that relationship taught me a lot.
We met in 2000 and he was an alcoholic. I told him that it is unacceptable. He did the Landmark Forum and he stopped drinking cold turkey. He was doing well, no drinking, not even talking about drinking, for a whole year. Until a kindly waiter at the Japanese restaurant rewarded us with a glass of plum wine for our patronage.
Alex Hormozi is a 1000.
I started to write this post yesterday while I was listening to Alex’s video on youtube. And of course it is the next day, and I have no idea what is the one thing I saw yesterday.
So lesson #1… when you have an insight, write it all down, don’t count on your memory.
Moreover: don’t count on your memory for anything… In fact have no use for your memory.
People whom I found unteachable all do everything in their memory and thus they are unteachable.
