How to Make Big Decisions Consciously – Instead of on Auto-Pilot It is an insult to tell anyone living that they make their most important decisions non-consciously. Homo sapiens pride ourselves on behaviors using logic and reason, math and science, right? Neuroscientists until 2008 concluded our consciousness (reason, logic and thinking) was the basis for western civilization and its progress. Imagine an executive at Apple being told his conscious mind is almost an illusion, and all their success is the product of non-consciousrn(auto-pilot) decision-making. Ridiculous.

Many of us fail to recognize the dormant hero that lies in each one of us. We are taught to believe that in order to be a hero we must perform some truly noble act or possess supe atural abilities. Only then, we feel, will our lives be validated and some higher duty fulfilled. The greatest heroes in our world from a historical perspective, however, have at first been the greatest thinkers. Their abilities had very little to do with their physical prowess and everything to do with their beliefs in their own capabilities.

Procrastination is a common problem for students in high school and college. Frustrated parents often believe their child’s procrastination comes from laziness or lack of motivation.

My job was to help Jenny do better in school.

What is the Law of Expectation, And Who Cares? Now you are an intelligent person, wise in the ways of the world. If you do some quick internet research on the Law of Expectation, what will you find? Answer: Google has to remove this drivel. These articles contain facts a first-grader would not believe.

Three (3) Strategies to Attract Wealth 1. Bagha 2. Positioning 3.

You’re unique, just like everyone else. There has never been anyone like you and there never will be. After a long day the only thing you bear in mind when you rest your head on your pillow is how you feel. Feelings are everything. They are the body’s response to thoughts in the mind. Daily happenings take a back seat to feelings. Thoughts visit temporarily, but feelings linger indefinitely. You cannot get rid of them even if you try. Feelings instigate your mindset, and navigate your perception of reality from the helm of their powerful ship.

Why Peripheral Vision is Your Secret Asset “Always look people in the eye,” my Pop said, “because Gonifs (thieves, swindlers, and rascals) never look you in the orbs.

“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.” Frederick Douglass Our kids have so much choice these days.
