Write for Wealth

Because I love the English language and its
amazing flexibility,

because I love thought-provoking ideas

and because I understand the machinations
and power of the subconscious mind and its
daily effects, I am offering you my thoughts
and some unusual quotations.

Here's today's:

"The child is father of the man." William Wordsworth

That line has always intrigued me. What we perceive
as children makes up our current reality and governs
our thoughts as adults.

And our thoughts govern our actions. If we want
different results in our lives we need to investigate
the early childhood perceptions that formed our current
conclusions about ourselves in the world.

EMOTIONS

"The value of truth is absolute, its nature
subjective." Russell Allen

Do you agree?

Rusty Allen was a student of mine who came to
my class once every two weeks for two years. 
The rest of the time he hid in a garage and
read philosophy, psychology and related
literature.  At the end of two years he
distilled his reading into three "aphorisms
toward the meaning of existence".

The first: "The value of truth is absolute,
its nature subjective." 

His second aphorism: "The righteousness of a
belief is inherent unto the believer." This
is self-explanatory.  You get stories on this
from the Middle East every day.

His third: "Eros: All thought begins with
the body.

The body begins at birth, is not separate
from the mind, and definitely creates thought.

Only 2% of the mind works in words.  Most of
the information we receive comes in a massive
flow of images to all our senses.  Our conscious
minds interpret these messages. How we interpret
them determines how we feel and think.

The body is a field of energy.  Emotions
are E (energy) in Motion.  Because feelings
of inadequacy, despair, anger, resentment,
hate, love and joy are emotions, they are
momentary.  They are in motion, moving on,
unless we fight ourselves to keep them.

 

Here's to your life,
