Polyphasic considerations

By |2010-01-04T01:13:48+13:00January 4th, 2010|Introspection|

Its a new year, and although I am giving myself a weeks leeway until I make resolutions (the advantage of having a birthday on January 7, coupled with an intense december, means I need a week off for vacation) I am considering implementing a huge new lifestyle change: polyphasic sleep. Buckminster Fuller successfully employed this [...]

Pre-New Years Resolutions

By |2009-12-20T16:50:42+13:00December 20th, 2009|Introspection|

It is beginning to strike me what I will be manifesting this upcoming year. I will be spending a lot of time on my resolutions, with the seminar Claim Your New Year Now, and I will also spend time at coffee with my wife earlier that day writing out my resolutions. There are a couple [...]

Thanks for the tea

By |2009-12-18T16:31:34+13:00December 18th, 2009|Introspection|

I did nothing for this tea. I am drinking a hot cup of Organic Hojicha green tea, and I have the abundance of the Universe to thank for it. Last week I received an unexpected check in the mail.  It was for $3.60.  About ten years ago, when PGE decommissioned the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant, [...]

Straightedge

I've gotta take a break again. After a day of feasting, on both food and favored intoxicants, I need to give my body a reprieve. Maybe not an all-out detox or cleanse, but I am enough out of balance that I need to take some time to give my body a break. I am doing [...]

Information peddler

By |2009-11-28T05:31:15+13:00November 28th, 2009|Introspection|

I have spent some time studying those clever entrepreneurs who have put up a website, marketed an ebook, and made up to $300k a year. They share the same skill set as myself. It it not only within my reach to accomplish so accomplishable a task; it is beginning to be embarrasing that I have [...]

Owning the Badass

By |2009-11-06T21:56:11+13:00November 6th, 2009|Introspection|

I have moved into the uncomfortable, a practice that is essential for continual growth.  My lessons lately have been in accepting my inherent badass. I am not like other people.  I differ greatly from my own society, and my studies and skils have brought me above and beyond the general populace to such a degree [...]

NaNoWriMo year 3

By |2009-11-02T00:05:41+13:00November 2nd, 2009|Introspection|

I didn't think I was going to partake in National Novel Writing Month this year.  I really didn't. But I've got a huge project I am brainstorming on, and getting ready to move on in the next few weeks.  All I really need to do is spend some time kicking the idea into shape and [...]

Money is Power

By |2009-10-23T22:38:59+13:00October 23rd, 2009|Introspection|

Plain and simple. Money = power. Money, in many ways, equals the unnable force of the divine, manifested on the earthly plane. I have come to realize this by the simple act of possessing large amounts of money. In the grand scheme of things, the money I have had the luxury of possessing isn't even [...]

Retaining relaxation

By |2009-10-22T16:49:29+13:00October 22nd, 2009|Introspection|

The key, I have found, is to maintain a cool head no matter what happens. Epictetus said that we have no control over our external circumstances.  All we can control is our reaction to those circumstances. My manager called to say that the Windows upgrade which was originally scheduled for today, and cancelled, is now [...]
