Before I do the webinar on inventing being a winner, it would be useful, wouldn’t you say, to distinguish what is winning, what is a winner, so you can choose to be that, or not.
So, I have been looking at everything through this distinction for the past few days, and I am starting to see things.
I have found that the difference between winning or not winning, oftentimes can be seen in the difference in attention.
Andy teaches a technique to get to no mind. It was easy for me… but I doubt that it’s easy for you.
When you are a “normal” human: living more than 70% of the time in your mind, repeating the same mental processes day in and day out, when you relate to the world through the mind, when you don’t spend any time in the present moment, then getting into no-mind is beyond you.
The best you can do is enter an illusion.
If the who doesn’t change, nothing can change
This morning I opened an email from a dude who reads my emails, reads my articles, and says he resonates with what I say.
In his latest email he said that we should talk. That we are the world’s two smartest people… so we should talk.

The way to find the strait and narrow of happiness (See The Anna Karenina Principle) is to watch the feedback … and self-correct.
Yesterday I added integrity to the starting point measurements. so far all people I measured ranked on 3 out of 100. Wow.
I had an exchange of text messages with a guy, whose vibration was low, and that is all he asked for. His vibration.
He is a Polish person, part of the Starseed Global Alliance to save the earth or something. To me it sounds like a computer game… to him: it is reality.

Connecting To Source, Connecting To Higher Self, Connecting To Intuition: Which Is The Easiest? Which Can Be Taught?
Warning: this article is written so a 9-year old won’t understand it. If your comprehension is on a 9-year old’s level, go, find another website to read… and if this warning insults you… Good. I woke you up!
What is the difference between getting guidance from Source and intuition?
What is the difference between connecting to your higher self and connecting to Source?
What is inspiration and where does it come from? How can I access it when I need it?
How do I pick a path and stay on it? Where does it come from?
I remember, in the “Ultimate Leadership” course, being guided around land mines while my eyes were closed. The issue of trust, trusting my life to another human being was something I still have nightmares about today. The course was almost 10 years ago.
But in that exercise I knew the outcome, so I could keep it in my mind’s eye as “that’s what will be the result if all goes as planned.”
I think, that of all Osho’s talks that I know, this is the most significant, and the most helpful, if you EVER want to be able to return HOME, to the present moment, where you can be content, happy, and start living.
Osho talks: The Man Who Loved Seagulls
7 May 1975 am in Buddha Hall
There was a man living by the seashore who loved seagulls. Every morning he went down to the sea to roam with the seagulls. More birds came to him than could be counted in hundreds.
His father said to him one day: I hear the seagulls all come roaming with you — bring me some to play with.
Next day, when he went to the sea, the seagulls danced above him and would not come down.
The greatest secret of life is — and remember it always — that life is a gift. You have not deserved it in the first place. It is not your right. It has been given to you, you have not earned it. Once you understand this, many things will become clear.
If life is a gift then all that belongs to life is going to be a gift. Happiness, love, meditation — all that is beautiful is going to be a gift from the holy, from the whole.

Just for clarification: the Matrix is the same as the Chicken Coop in the novel, White Tiger…
As a mad scientist, my job is to distinguish the “things” that are in your way of direction, in your way of clarity, and to devise ways for you to go around them or through them.
One tool that has proven invaluable is isolation. Isolating what you want to see. Seeing it by itself. So you can see it for what it is, in all its glory…
In nature, to our eyes, things are grouped, things are undifferentiated and solid.
Your language supports that too… everything is the same as everything else, except not always. That is how we see. We don’t see boundaries, we don’t separate out what we want to see, we always see things together. We say: it IS… but there is no “it” and therefore there is no “is”. If we said: It seems that … then we would be closer to reality… but we don’t say that. That would require humility.
The ignorant is easily mislead. And we are all ignorant and thus mislead to one degree or another. It is on the scale of 1 to 100 like most things in life.
Ignorance, ignorant simply means: lacking knowledge, information, or awareness about a particular thing… often most things to be precise.
Ignoring, the verb, interestingly, means: make room for it, pay it no heed, grant it no significance.

It’s hard to be silently brilliant. Lots of thoughts occur when you open your mouth.
This has been one of the principles I live by.
Now, that finally the harmful effects of the milk protein wore off… and I am returning to being normal.
So my Sunday Rants call was more productive than maybe ever. Not less ranty… mind you, but more insights.
It is very easy to think in a tiny box, and most people live that way. It is even possible for most to stay in that tiny box when they listen to someone, or read something. They never leave, never enlarge the box, never go anywhere.
Because what gives you your world, what you see, your actions, your words, your feelings… that is what is in the box.
I realized that some 29 years ago. It was New Year’s Eve, and I spent it on the phone with a Landmark staff member from Detroit.
We took turns to speak the New Year into existence.
