Thanksgiving – Every Day Of The Year – For Real

The Fourth Thursday

Today is November 24, the national holiday of Thanksgiving. The present form of this holiday of gratitude was signed into law in 1885. It stemmed from a proclamation by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863 during the Civil War. The proclamation called for a national day of thanksgiving to be celebrated the final Thursday of November. In 1941 the date was fixed by law as the fourth Thursday in November.

In the midst of the calamity of the Civil War, death and destruction was a daily consequence of war. President Lincoln intuitively felt it necessary to designate one day for everyone to re-set their minds. Re-set their minds for one day away from the grieving and relentless horrors of war. Re-set their minds for one day on gratitude for any and all blessings received as well as on the coming day when the war would eventually end.

And so, today in America, the fourth Thursday of the month of November is celebrated as Thanksgiving Day. It is traditionally a day of family members gathering together for a dinner of turkey with gravy, stuffing, mashed potatoes, string beans, cranberry sauce and all manner of good things to eat. Apple pie or pumpkin pie with ice cream for dessert. A thanksgiving prayer is said before the meal. After the meal is the time for conversation. Football games are on the television. And the secret of the true explosive power of gratitude gets scant attention.

Yeah It Really Does Say That

On this Thanksgiving Day of the year 2022, you are now being issued a direct challenge. If you prove to be successful in meeting this challenge, your life is guaranteed to dramatically change – for the better. Why should I care if your life changes for the better? I am not really sure. I believe that it may have something to do with the interconnectedness of humanity as well as the “productive intercession” part of my life mission, my grand manifestation.

Here is your challenge – live and feel and breathe thanksgiving every single day between November 24, 2022 and November 23, 2023. All 365 days. After you are done rolling your eyes and saying “not that count your blessings stuff again”, further on in this post, I will explain why it is that you should do this. Hint: It is for your benefit.

In First Thessalonians 5:18, it states the following: “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”(NIV). Yeah, it really does say that – “in all circumstances”.

Now a response by many reasonable people might be as follows: “That’s total bullshit. Why should I be thankful when the shit is hitting the fan in my life or in the life of someone I love?” Fair enough. Part of the widespread error in belief about thanksgiving however is how society misperceives the process of giving thanks. Read on.

Dance Minions, Dance

As you grew up, you were primarily told by your parents to say thank you when someone gives you something or does something for you. This may have been reinforced by religious leaders, teachers, uncles, aunts, grandparents, friends, etc. You were told that people like it when they are thanked. So as time goes on you angle your thank you’s to game the system. A quick “thank you, appreciate it” and then be on your way.

You may have been told to be thankful because “it’s good manners”. You may have been told by Uncle Charlie that if you don’t get your ass over there and thank Aunt Gertrude for that sweater, Aunt Gertrude is going to be pissed off and take it out on Uncle Charlie when they get home.

The member of the clergy of your particular religion may imperiously state, “It is the will of God for you to be thankful so just do it”. The unspoken rest of the statement is “or else”. It tends to present an image of an old guy with a long white beard wearing a flowing robe. The imposing geezer has a stern look on his face. He looks over his entourage and commands from his throne, “Dance, my minions, dance”. Then if he sees someone not be thankful, he frowns and reaches for his divine taser. Then next thing you hear from the crowd is “Yeowww! That hurt!”

The Law Is The Law Is The Law

Universal Law is divinely impartial. It is no respecter of persons. It works no matter who employs it. Your life reality merely reflects back to you your awareness of being, as a mirror reflects your image. If you are truly feeling (not just mouthing) thanksgiving, you are actively transmitting. You are transmitting neural electro-magnetic impulses to Universal Law which then always responds accordingly. Your neural thought impulses, accompanied by your feeling of it, are received. This sets off a fateful chain reaction for something good to happen in your reality. It is a scientific certainty. This is equivalent to a television signal sent out from a broadcasting tower.

A specific wave frequency dials you into the television channel that you have chosen to watch. Change the chosen frequency, you get a different channel. In the case of your life, change your inner frequency and you change your reality. It’s just that simple. Universal Law responds in a positive manner to the frequency of gratitude. Maintain that frequency and you will receive something for which to be thankful. Turn off the flow and you then block the connection. The Law is the Law is the Law. That is the hidden reason why, even in the midst of adverse circumstances, scripture counsels you to be thankful in all circumstances. It is your way out. It is your way out of your troubles.

A Real Life Example

Let me give you an actual minor example of pursuing gratitude in an adverse situation. At a job that I worked at for many years, I found myself in the situation of working with a troublesome employee. The employee was just plain annoying, to me as well as others. I think the crux of the problem was that the employee was insecure inside. This then projected outward into irritating behavior.

I observed how there was constant bickering and tension between this employee and another co-worker. The employee even tried to get me in trouble one time but I was one step ahead of her and her attempt was fruitless. Intuitively, I felt that confrontation was not the solution to the problem. “In everything be thankful” came into my mind. I made the decision to steadfastly remain in gratitude mode rather than place my focus on the fact that I really disliked this person.

Thankful for what? you might say. For whatever lesson life was presenting to me. Thankful for Ultimate Intelligence being available for guidance. Thankful for the indisputable fact that I am the only person who gets to decide how I feel inside. Thankful that I was given an opportunity to prove this in concrete terms. Thankful that I am a sovereign thinking being.

As you might guess, in a very short amount of time, I was unexpectedly transferred to another facility within the installation where I did not come in contact with the annoying person. Furthermore, in a short while after that, that employee left that job completely and found employment elsewhere. I thought to myself afterward, “Wow, this stuff really works”.

The Dynamic Duo

Two mystics, seven hundred years apart, were on the same wavelength when it comes to the critical importance in your life of thanksgiving.

The thirteenth century theologian and mystic, Meister Eckhart, summed it up concisely. He wrote “If the only prayer that you ever uttered during your entire life was “thank you”, it would be enough”.

Some seven hundred years later, in the twentieth century, the latter day mystic, author and lecturer, Neville Goddard, wrote “…(a) way of praying is simply to feel thankful. If I want something, either for myself or for another, I immobilize the physical body, then I produce the state akin to sleep and in that drowsy state, just feel happy, feel thankful, which thankfulness implies realization of what I want.”

Feel It. Feel It. Feel It.

And there it is. Therein lies the hidden secret of the power of thanksgiving. The Law is the Law is the Law. That is the precise reason that you should be thankful in all circumstances. If the circumstances are good, you desire them to continue in that manner. Thanksgiving. If the circumstances are neutral, you want to “kick start” things in the desired direction. Thanksgiving. Further, if the circumstances are bad, you want to engage in an action that is going to turn things around to the good side somehow. Thanksgiving.

If you feel thanksgiving, you live in a manner that will make your life worth living. You will then desire to do something that expresses the gratitude you feel. This then always empowers you. You walk the divine path. The divine path of creating. Creating something that did not exist before. When you keep the faith no matter what, you have the privilege of expressing the power and majesty of Universal Mind during your brief stay here on planet Earth.

Thanksgiving is eternal. Thanksgiving is magical. Set your mind on it every day of the year. You will reap the golden harvest.

Conceive. Believe. Receive.

Infused Believing: It Has A Taste You’ll Really Enjoy

Infused Believing: Try It, You’ll Like It

Nowadays there are many infused products available to the public for purchase. Infused waters are now very popular giving water a huge variety of interesting flavors. There is infused honey, infused olive oil, infused coffees and teas, infused dried fruits and vegetables. More recently we have the addition of CBD and cannabis infused products. Let’s take a look at the dictionary to review a definition of infused – to cause an item to be permeated with another item with the additional item altering the original item for the better.

The very core, the center if you will, of manifesting your reality is belief. Even though your five senses cannot perceive “the desire fulfilled”, your imaginal sense not only clearly perceives it but likewise believes it as real. What creates the finishing touch to your manifesting efforts is gratitude. When you infuse your assured belief in the unseen with gratitude, infused believing I call it, you are co-creating with God. You are creating an energy based power vortex that comes straight out of the Kingdom of God within you. Your only job from then on is to stay true and constant to this infused belief and maintain your faith in the unseen reality.

Plasma, as seen in the image above, is one of the four fundamental states of matter. It contains a significant portion of charged particles – ions and/or electrons. Lightning is a commonplace generator of plasma. When you infuse your desired manifestation belief with true gratitude, you are creating a virtual plasma energy bomb that releases explosive power – power to fulfill your life’s desires.

And The Great Thing About It Is—–It Feels Really Good

Let’s say that your car appears to be on its last legs. You have about $37.00 in your bank account and a $3.00 in your wallet. Your basic fear is that you car will conk out on you and you won’t have the money to fix it. When you leave for work you are wondering will the car last you another year or even another month. You think that if it breaks down, how the hell will you be able to get to work. And so on. Listen, if that does happen, you’ll figure it out somehow. By dwelling on it however, you dangerously create an energy vortex that actually serves to draw that scenario to your reality.

Try this instead. Create in your mind’s eye the vision of a car make and model, car mileage, car condition that you could live with, a car that is mechanically sound and cosmetically acceptable to you. Forget about how much it might cost you. Forget about credit reports. Forget about other bills you may have. Forget about down payments. Just concentrate on your car, you driving the car, you driving others in the car, pulling up to the gas pump and filling your car’s tank with gas, parking your car at your residence after finishing work, getting into your car to go to work, giving a ride to someone else who may not have a car. In a drowsy state, either immediately upon waking or just before drifting off to sleep, feel it. Just feel that it has really happened to you. It is real. Then INFUSE your belief, your feeling, with how thankful, how effing thankful that you are that everything came together for you. You have it. You did it. Then either fully wake up and start your day or drift off to sleep for the night.

A quote from Neville Goddard – (note: capitalization has been added by me) – “(a) way of praying is simply to FEEL thankful. If I want something, either for myself, or another, I immobilize the physical body, then I produce the state akin to sleep and in that state just feel happy, feel thankful, which thankfulness implies realization of what I want. I assume the FEELING of the wish fulfilled and with my mind dominated by this single sensation, I go to sleep. I need do nothing to make it so, because it IS so. My FEELING of the wish FULFILLED implies that it is done.”

If you successfully feel gratitude for your wish fulfilled, remember this – the human mind, the human heart cannot feel grateful for that which you have not been given. Your subconscious mind takes its marching orders from what you believe as true and your feeling of gratitude that what you desire is yours.

Do not be surprised if you practice infused believing and you begin crying out of what I call “primal gratitude”. It is akin to those game show contestants who start bawling when they win the grand showcase prize. Primal gratitude is gratitude that has penetrated down to your very core, the center of your being. The feeling is different for different people. Some may feel a perfect calm and peace. Others may taste a brief sample of the feeling of ecstasy. Yet others may feel the benevolent power of a state of being purely centered. Whatever way you feel, if you are doing it right, it feels good.

Some may respond to this with disdain and say, ” Yeah right, I got problems hitting me from every which way and you want me to be thankful for that?!” Absolutely not. Not for whatever misfortune that you or a loved one may be suffering. I want you to imagine, to create an outcome that you desire, then believe, utterly believe that is your true reality and not what you eyes are seeing. Believe with your “inner eyes”, the eyes you use when dwelling in the Kingdom of God. When your belief is full, infuse that belief of “that which is unseen” with thankfulness, simple thankfulness, true thankfulness. Stay consistent. Stay true to your feeling. If you do, at some point your desire will come to fruition. It has to, it has no choice but to manifest. It may be a day, a week, a month, a year but it will arrive on your lap, many times when you least expect it. Even in the act of procreation there is a nine month lag between conception and birth.

Give It Everything That You Have To Give

This infused believing manifestation method is a true delight to use. There is something about true gratitude that is extremely powerful. Outer adverse circumstances may attempt to hang in there but ultimately, if you remain focused and committed to the process, they will have no choice but to back away. It is necessary to totally surrender to the idea. At first, you may find it too hard to do. Keep at it. If it was “a walk in the park” everyone, everywhere would be doing it. But everyone is not doing it because you have to do it when you do not feel like doing it. You have to do it when you are angry. You have to do it when you are tired. You have to do it when a part of you is telling you that you are a fool for doing it.

Like most manifesting techniques, the more that you give to the process, the more you will get. A quote from Stuart Wilde, ” Universal Law is impartial. It will give you anything you believe. It will throw you garbage or roses depending on the energy you put in. You are the one in charge, and you must accept that and stand alone. If you think God is coming down to fix things for you, forget it. God is out playing golf.” To stand alone is to be responsible for the results emanating from your thoughts, words, actions, feelings, beliefs.

One of my favorite singers is the jazz vocalist, Dianne Reeves. If you want a short visual example of someone experiencing gratitude, go on You Tube and watch her performance of the song “Testify” from August 12, 2000 at the Newport Jazz Festival. Near the end of the song, part of the lyrics are the words, “thank you”. She generates amazing energy as she repeats the words over and over again. She is not merely singing the words, she is experiencing those words.

Believe, Gratitude, Receive. Referencing that famous line from the editorial in the New York Sun newspaper, “Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus”, through infused believing, that Santa Claus is you.

The Magic Phone Call That Changes Your Life

A Fond Memory

Are you old enough to remember when house phones looked like this and all households had just one phone? Rotary dial. Basic black. The coil phone line connecting the phone to the handset. And let me tell you that phone was one heavy piece of equipment. In my house growing up we had the one house phone. It was in the kitchen and it was the type that you hung on the wall. The type you see in the image above, is almost an exact duplicate of the house phone that my grandparents had. Whenever my brother and I got to visit, I remember hearing the bell sound when the phone rung and then Grandpop or Grandmom walking into the living room to answer the phone. The phone had its own little table next to a living room easy chair. Grandmom even had a lace doily underneath the phone. Built into the small table was a little shelf under the phone where the telephone directory (aka the phone book) was kept. Sometimes the caller would be from “the old neighborhood” and the conversation would be in Polish. Whenever I see a picture of a phone like this, it brings forth a fond memory of my beloved grandparents. Duplicating an episode from the television series The Twilight Zone, if I ever purchased a phone like they had in an antique store, I would half expect to get a phone call on it from my grandparents from The Great Beyond.

How To Do It

The twentieth century author, lecturer and mystic, Neville Goddard, popularized a technique for manifesting an outcome in your life reality that is known simply as “the phone call technique”. It is a technique that is simple to understand, extremely easy to implement, can be done by absolutely anyone, and is a fun way to use your God-given Imagination. With that said, here is how you go about using the telephone call technique to consciously manifest something.

First, you must be crystal clear as to what it is that you desire to manifest. Vague outcomes are the result of blurry desires. Refrain from trying to manifest eighteen different desires with one phone call. Keep it at one or possibly two clear cut manifesting outcomes. For example, you can go for a manifestation of receiving a sum of money which then allows you to find the suitable lodging that you are longing for. You can also use the phone call technique for intercession – manifesting something for a loved one. Just remember to keep it focused on one or two clear desires. Refrain from trying to “conquer the world” with one phone call.

Second, decide who will be the person on the other end of the phone call. Perhaps the phone will be on speaker and there will be more than one person on the other end. It’s your call, you decide. Make every effort to choose someone with whom you can be completely free to let your emotions be expressed full force.

Third, construct the content of the phone call. Choose all the words you would be saying and how you would be saying them. Write every word of the phone conversation down on paper, preferably a spiral bound notebook. Take your time with this part and refrain from rushing it. Choose all the words the other person would be saying and how they would be saying them. It is your creation, you decide. One example would be you calling that person with pure excitement to inform him that you have received in full your desired manifestation. Hear that person being truly happy for you. Feel how thankful you are for what you have received. And so on. It’s your call, you decide. If your manifestation desire was an intercession manifestation on someone’s behalf who needed help, you can have the phone call being from that person to you telling you all about it. You can hear the excitement and happiness in their voice. You can feel your true happiness for their success. And so on.

Fourth, use your emotions, your feelings, to the max. The word construct of the phone call that you created in your mind is the spaceship. Your inner feeling that you initiate to go along with the words of the phone call is the rocket fuel. Together they will propel your spaceship to the moon (your manifested desire). It is essential to have both – the rocket ship and the rocket fuel.

When, Where And For How Long

OK, so much for the basics of what to do. Now let’s move on to the when, the where and the for how long of it all.

With regard to when to have your magic phone call during the course of the day, there is really no specific time that is the magic hour. The key to it all is the elimination of distractions and your level of devotion and commitment to being in a relaxed state of mind. You will not get good results with a clenched fist, a clenched heart, or a clenched mind. Relax. Relax. Relax. If morning is best for you, then morning it is. If bedtime is the best time, then bedtime it is. To use the old Nike advertising motto, just do it.

As to where to have your phone call, it is best to find a quiet place without distractions or interruptions. All that you should be hearing is your phone call. If wherever you go in your lodging, there is noise at all times of day and night, there are two alternative possibilities. One is to purchase a set of ear mufflers like the type you see guys wearing on the runway at airports. The other alternative is to find a quiet spot outside of the house. If at all possible, try to have your phone call at the same place or places every day. Again, however, as you did with the when part of it, just do it. All the methods of doing it are simply useless unless you actually do it every day.

That leads us to the “how long” of it all. How long should you continue having the phone call. Continue until you no longer have to continue. Results can arrive in the short term or the long term. Some of it depends on what you are going for and the fullness of your faith. The bigger the prize, the longer to realize. The absolute minimum time period to which you should commit yourself is thirty days. During that thirty day period pay attention to everything that goes on around you. Be alert. If you have raised your energy vibration each day as a result of your phone call, your manifestation “order” has been received and is being acted upon. Refuse to fret over how it will come about. If for example, it is money, keep from outlining where the money came from in your call. Just focus on how it has changed your life and the various ways that you will be using it. If it is improved health, don’t focus on how it came about but zero in on how much better you now feel and all the things you can now do. Just concentrate on the phone call and your accompanying feelings. If the manifestation is really important to you, you will stick with it until results arrive as you go about your daily activities.

A Few Final Thoughts

When Neville Goddard communicated the phone call technique, it was using the technology of the 1950’s. If you want to modify this technique to using texting or live chat or even a video call by all means do it. Just use the same ingredients as would be in play for the phone call. Again, the primary ingredients to this recipe are your vision, the use of your five senses and how you feel as a result of the call. If done correctly, you should be continually raising your energy vibrational frequency every time you do it.

There are a great multitude of ways that humans utilize to escape their reality. Many of these ways have ruinous results for the person employing them. Instead of attempting to escape your reality, always, to the best of your ability, put forth the necessary effort to go in a different direction. Proceed directly to the Kingdom of God to create a better reality, a reality that you run to instead of away from.

Believe. Receive.

Your Personal Magic Soviet Textbook

The Soviet Textbook

Josef Stalin. Russian Big Cheese. Dictator of the Soviet Union from 1924 to his death in 1953. He is seated in the middle of the front row in the image above. He pretty much was the new tsar of Russia taking over where Nicholas II left off, with seven years of Lenin in between. The big difference however between Stalin and Nicholas was that Russia/the Soviet Union was now totally immersed in the political structure known as totalitarian communism.

In the Soviet Union, as was the case in the 1930’s and 1940’s with fascism in Germany, the state was paramount. The state controlled the newspapers. The state controlled radio and movies. The state controlled travel. The state controlled industry. The state controlled agriculture. Maybe most important of all, the state controlled the youth of the society through its total control of the education system. Of course, in a political system such as this, the functionaries of the state wrote and printed all of the textbooks approved for use throughout all levels of schooling, primary thru university. While science and mathematics were pretty standard with the textbooks of schools outside of the Soviet Union, things like history and literature were most assuredly “bent” to reflect whatever the state wanted to feed the populace. History textbooks reflected history as what Stalin and the communists wanted it to be. Factual data was secondary to promoting the communist agenda.

Now You See Him…..Now you Don’t

One of the unusual facets of the Soviet textbooks was the “now you see him, now you don’t” phenomena. A famous example of this was a famous photograph taken in the mid-twenties of Stalin and three other luminaries of the communist revolution. They were standing around a desk of some sort. Stalin was more or less in the middle and the other three were by his side. First of all, Stalin, who had a pitted face due to contracting smallpox as a child, miraculously now had a perfect complexion. As each year or two went by, one by one the other three poor slobs fell out of favor with Stalin and wound up executed or given a free one-way ticket to Siberia. In the second edition of that textbook, the picture showed Stalin and two others. The fourth was totally removed from the photograph and all textbooks having the picture of comrade number four were destroyed. In the next edition of this text, there was no mention of comrade number four ever existing and the photo showed Stalin with two revolutionary comrades. The man never existed. The next edition of the text showed Stalin and one other revolutionary comrade. Yes, comrade number three must not have laughed loud enough at one of Stalin’s jokes because he was tried and executed and unceremoniously deleted from the textbook. No mention is made of the now two deleted men. The final edition of the text shows Joe Stalin standing alone at the desk. I think he’s even a little taller now in the photo. That’s right, the other guy was likewise given the heave-ho and all mention of him completely excised from the new edition of the text. It reminds me of a Twilight Zone episode that I watched one time where something similiar happened.

Having total control of the educational system of the Soviet Union, the communist structure merely revised their history to whatever they wanted it to be. Due to censorship imposed by authorities, history was what Stalin and Company said it was. What children believed about their past was based what they were taught from the revised reimaging of it by their totalitarian controllers.

Your Own Personal Soviet Textbook

So what does all this Stalin and soviet stuff have to do with manifesting something that you want in your life? Well it has to do with the concept of revision popularized by Neville Goddard. Revision is a simple concept. Notice that I said simple but I did not say easy. If some event in your life does not meet your satisfaction, just revise it in your mind to something that you find more satisfactory. After you do that part of the revision process, then invoke within yourself the feeling that your revision was actually real. Feel the way you woud feel if things happened according to your revision. Once you do this part of the process then drop the matter and go about your activities for the day. This whole thing need not take more than five minutes of your time. That’s it. Your personal soviet textbook method for manifesting something.

There are many success stories on the internet of people using revision. Here is one example: A man’s relatives were in town to visit him. They lived far away so he did not get to see them very often. Among the group of relatives was his mom. The mom texted him saying that his niece, just a small tyke, had caught a severe cold. The man revised the text in his mind to say, “Your niece looked to be catching a bad cold but she feels much better now and everything is on track for tonight.” The man continued reading and re-reading his revised text until he got himself to the point where he really believed it was real. Then he dropped the matter and went on with his day. That evening, when he met with his relatives, they told him that the niece bounced back quickly and the cold symptoms left as if she had never had them. That is but one example of manifesting using revision.

Try it. You might be like Mikey from that old Life cereal commercial. That was the one where two brothers at the kitchen table saw a new box of cereal their mother had bought that was supposed to be healthy. They both said that they were not going to try it. They then said they would give it to their younger brother. Mikey, who hates everything (food-wise). Then to their surprise, Mikey liked the cereal whereupon they poured the cereal into their own bowls. Further study about revision is readily available on the net. Pour some into your bowl.

Free To You…….The Lectures of Neville Goddard

One of the beautiful things about writings and recordings that are in what is known as “the public domain” is that they are absolutely free of charge to anyone who wishes to read, listen or copy them in any way they choose. One set of writings and recordings that are in the public domain that could help you jumpstart your manifesting efforts involve those of the twentieth century mystic, author and lecturer, Neville Goddard.

Neville Goddard (1905 – 1972) was born in the British West Indies on the island of Barbados. He was the fourth of ten children and immigrated to the United States in 1922. He was the author of several books as well as giving countless lectures in person, on the radio, on television and on recorded albums. He is not an easy person to pigeon hole as a proponent of this philosophy or that philosophy but was definitely radical in his explanation of scripture. I guess you can call him a proponent of the power of imagination to shape your reality.

If you are a person who would rather listen than read a book, there are many of Goddard’s lectures that are available on the internet. A quick sampling of just some of the lectures available to you include: How To Use Your Imagination; Live In The End; You Create The Reality You Live In; How To Really Pray; Your Creative Power; How To Feel Your Way Into The Wish Fulfilled. The lectures where he is talking to a physical audience at a lecture hall are the best as he seems to talk a little slower than when he is under time constraints (radio, tv, albums). This guy could make a fortune today as a voiceover artist. When you listen, it is as if you are listening to a kindly professor (with an melifluous English accent no less) in a lecture hall somewhere. Instead of a lecture on engineering or history or mathematics however, you are listening to a lecture about insights on life.

Q: Why bother with this? A: You can immediately take and use to your benefit the concepts put forth by Goddard to make your life better. If you truly commit yourself, you can shape your life how you really want it to be instead of getting stuck in a life, your life, that somehow just doesn’t feel to you like it’s hitting on all cylinders. If you feel that your life could be better than it is now and you have a true desire to do something about it, then, that is why you take the time to hear what he has to say.

Take advantage of these commercial-free lectures. Just sit, chill, and listen. Open the windows of your mind. Some ideas may give you an “aha moment” while others may give you an “I don’t buy that moment”. If you don’t resonate with all the concepts put forth, that’s ok. Take the ones that resonate with you at this juncture of your life and run with them. You’ve got nothing to lose but less than an hour of your time but you’ve potentially got a whole lot to gain.
