All right… Now, how fast can we find this funny?
In a Video of Mike Meyers’ about how he creates his characters, he talks about his father who was funnier than him… And this quote is from the father.
This morning as I was playing Freecell to get to the ‘mode’ of wanting to write an article, I noticed something in how I was… playing Freecell.

The new measure I am including in the Starting Point Measurements is Self-Esteem. Or more precisely: how distorted your self-esteem is.
Esteem, the word, comes from the Latin appraise, estimate, measure the value of, the size of… through French and Middle English (as a noun in the sense ‘worth, reputation’): from Old French estime (noun), estimer (verb), from Latin aestimare ‘to estimate.’ The verb was originally in the Latin sense, also ‘appraise’ (compare with estimate), used figuratively to mean ‘assess the merit of.’ Current senses date from the 16th century.
So Self-Esteem is how you think your size is compared to others, compared to a standard.
80% of the people, who have a distorted (inaccurate) sense of themselves, overestimate themselves. This also differs by countries… a lot. For example, Koreans underestimate themselves, and therefore work diligently to measure up.
Not surprisingly, countries with the lowest Ambition number are highest on the overestimation scale… “If I am so wonderful already, why should I want to be more wonderful… says the unconscious culture of these countries.

I read this sentence in an article on the Theta Healing site.
It’s an interesting sentence. It kept me looking, feeling, inquiring, and connecting to Source for a while before I got my answer.
One of the most harmful words in the English language are I, my, and me.
It is not that they are intrinsically harmful! they are harmful the way we relate to their meaning.
Context is decisive. Sometimes these words (I, my and me) are the context, and sometimes they are heard in a context… confusing? Yeah, context has been confusing to many of my students. But being confused is a very high state: the lowest state a human is “knowing.” Why? Because once you think you know, once you think you have the answer, you stop looking, you stop being present, your mind is running the show, the stupid machine that anyone can hack, and they do, and you wouldn’t even know.
What is the highest state? I am not sure. But I am certain that the “I can see that” is higher than “confused”. I am not at the highest state, or if I am, I have no idea what indicates that state… so let’s not go there, ok?
Did you, have you asked yourself the question why I have such a long list of measures in the Starting Point Measurements?
After all, there was a time when I only offered your vibration number and your soul correction… wasn’t that enough?
Maybe yes, maybe no.
The more ways I get to look at you and give you feedback the more potential access you have to actually turn your life around, and become an expanding human being.
After all, when you say that you want to raise your vibration, that is what you are saying: that you want to become an expanding human being.
Of course you also want to feel better, be happier, healthier, and have better relationships, but given the nature of the beast, given the culture we all live in, feeling better, be a little happier, little healthier, maybe even have better relationships is still going to be not enough.
The pursuit of happiness pushes happiness away, like a snow plow pushes snow
I find myself more often than not, in complete sync with my favorite people, one of them is Roy H. Williams, the Wizard of Ads, famous ad man with a whole school of like-minded amazing expert, and thousands of students.
Roy H. Williams is a Christian, and that bothers me, but it’s the concept that bothers me, not the man. He writes about the subject I have been pursuing on this blog for the past week or so… so here is his piece from today’s Monday Morning Memo.
A disproportionately large percentage of “knowledge” available on the internet is false.
Some of it is intentional propaganda.
But most of it is the result of wrong world view, false beliefs, Tree of Life undigested stuff, accepted as the truth.
So given the amount of crap, it is you who needs to be a “truth seeker”.
Not “The Truth” but truth…

Here is the bad news:
In spite of the video, in spite of the revision of the Tangerine Method article’s wording, only 1% of you experience the connection.
