"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress in the world depends on the unreasonable man."~ George Bernard Shaw

It is reasonable for people to go in a direction where there is less resistance. This can be easily understood even further by thinking of human beings a electrical charges in the current circuit called the universe. It is a known physics fact that charges will always seek to pass through a conductor with less resistance than the one with more resistance. Not that there aren't charges that go through the more resistant conduct, just that the majority prefer the easier/common route.

For years or since the begin of human experience, man has always encountered a fork in a road, and deciding which to take determined what sort of experience one would have through the journey called Life.

"Two roads divulge in the road, and I took the road less travelled by and that has made all the difference". Robert Frost.

Life is really fun if you can learn to deal with the uncertainty factor that's engraved at its core. However, because of this resistance or uncertainty that people fear so much, life has thus become monotonous and not really valued for most. For many the predominant that they have this idea that there is only one way to getting to a destination, whether here on earth or heavens. And that it would surely be reasonable to walk through the path that so many have travelled because you are guaranteed safety.

If you want to experience life at its fullest glory you have to follow your own guidance and heart, and believe that there is more than just one way, as sure as there is more than just one position of the sun in the sky.

Martin Luther King Jnr once said, "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands in times of challenge and controversy." Taking the most popular path may give you some "assurance" (which isn't certain for we are each different) but it means you just let others determine your experiences and destination for you. You give away the most precious gift after life, which is the gift to choose. You bury the potential and desires that you were meant to manifest.

It has been said that if you don't know how to manage your time, people will manage it for you. Likewise with your thoughts, if you don't manage what you allow your mind to think about, people will freely impress that upon you. It’s important to remember that your thoughts create your reality, which means that if people will allow themselves to think differently from the masses, they will have different experiences from the mass. If you like what the mass experiences, then keep thinking like the masses. But if you want something else, think something else. And it follows then that there is more than one way of reaching your desired destination which ultimately is happiness and contentment.
The fear of being different has blinded man from the possibilities that are laid out there before him. 
The pride of belonging has robbed us of joy true fulfillment.

"Trust your instincts. Your mistakes might as well be your own instead of someone else's." ~ Billy Wilder.

Business 101: Becoming an Investor.

What is one of the key disciplines that any successful corporation practises? INVESTING. Every business relies on investing for success, and for the incredibly successful businesses they invest like crazy; in R&D, and product lines. Heck, even our own economy relies on investors in order to grow. So why not be an investor. Probably the first and almost immediate objection to this suggestion is "I don't have money to invest." And I for one, am completely in agreements with that. However, why not invest the one resource that you always have at your disposal - TIME . That's right. Invest your time. Ah, suddenly it seems so obvious now doesn't it, but would you like to guess on how many people actually overlook this important fact? (By the way, this is can well be a lecture on time management). And since all investment have the dominant factor of Time in them, why not begin by turning your focus on this one incredible resource and use it to your personal investmen...

The truth behind the truth!

What is truth? Maybe the truth about truth is there is no Truth, just perception or consciousness. Just as we can't taste sound or hear yellow or smell hard, truth is just perceptual and subjective to the mode of perception. Yellow is true to the eyes because they can see it, yet not true for the ears because they can't hear it. And yet both are valid perceptual avenues. Reality is the illusion Thought/Perception/Consciousness is what's real.   In this world there are two kinds of truths: real truth and notions that you have convinced yourself are truth. However as I have always observed, truth is a very subjective phenomenon. Subject to your personal viewpoint or point of reference, which is determined by your perception or  paradigm   So debating about what is true and what is not, is like trying to discredit knowledge with knowledge (e.g. science and religion). The truth is that there is no absolute truth (well not in human perspective) because our perceptions a...

WE CANNOT HEAR ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS WE ARE NOT ASKING

It is my truest understanding and belief that this universe is a universe of summoning. It is a plane of constant expansion and becoming. We are living on the edge of creation as we move thoughts forward to fuller expression.This summoning is brought through by the asking, the wondering   and exploration of this time-space reality a nd from which springs forth the answering, and new understandings, which will still brings in more asking. We all unconsciously know this, that's why we are inherently asking, wondering,  and imagining beings, as we are inherently curious and want to know. We  inherently  understand the natural ebb and flow about the  dynamics  universe and how it is expanding all ways.  We all knew and understood that whenever there is an asking, there will be an answer. The Law of Cause and Effect .  We knew and fully understood (even though we cannot remember now) that once we come into these physical plan...
