332 Time

admin · April 4, 2013 · 1 Comment

When you include Time in your calculations /judgments,

things change.

Example: I slept with 5 people /made a million, etc.

Ok, so?

All at once = Wow!

Over 50 years = Boring

I aim at nothing = Stupid!

Actually, I aim at where it will be = clever /creative!

Include Time in your calculations otherwise ‚initially‘ you aim at, … nothing!

It’s counter-intuitive to do something that ‚does-not-exist‘.

Once again, too simple?

327 Rejection

admin · Februar 28, 2013 · Leave a Comment

A rejection becomes relevant only when your action /non-action makes it so. If everyone agreed with the rejections of so-called experts, how would this world now be. (I was up to several pages after only an hour of searching!)

– His teachers’ opinion: too stupid to learn anything. THOMAS EDISON (1,300+ inventions)

– Protest with all our strength and indignation, against the erection of this useless and monstrous EIFFEL TOWER

– “Can’t act. Slightly bald. Can dance a little.” FRED ASTAIRE

– Decca Record executive, “We don’t like their sound.” BEATLES

– ‘It has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication.’ TELEPHONE

– ‚It does not meet the fundamental technical requirements of a motorcar.‘ VOLKSWAGEN

– ‘No flying machine will ever fly from New York to Paris.’ ORVILLE WRIGHT

– Rejected 27 times. DR. SEUSS

– “The Twilight Saga” 9 rejections

– Her first Harry Potter novel, 12 publishers rejected it.

– First novel, 20 rejections. AGATHA CHRISTIE (sold four billion copies!)

A rejection becomes relevant only when your action /non-action makes it so.

324 10%

This is the distortion between what you say and the # of times it’s repeated.

The first time it’s repeated = 90% accurate

Then 80% accurate (at best!)

Then 70% and now it starts to get dangerous as to just how accurate.

Then 60% and that’s about it.

At 50% there is a 50/50 chance the message is … not accurate!

OK, so?

Well, you hear things that influence your very life /lifestyle.

How far removed are these from their source(s)?

Not from the speaker you hear, but the actual source.

The „Red Menace“ in the 1960’s, 70’s & 80’s (!), WMD in the 2000’s, etc. came from the speakers you heard and not the original research source(s).

They heard /read it as a summary of someone else’s compilation of many others‘ research.

Are we at 50% yet?

Whenever you are concerned about something, look to see just how far from the source it is.

Takes time, but sure is better than being continuously affected /concerned.

309 Response

My wife woke up one morning feeling ‚down‘.

I asked her if there was anything I could do to help.

She said “No”

I asked her if it was anything I did.

She said “No”

So I got up, got dressed and went to work.

She said “Are you just going to leave me like this?”

And I answered yes, there is nothing I can do and you are responsible for your own self.

Your Responsibility is easily determined by the actual word:

Response-ability.

If you do not have the ability to respond, then you have no response – ability.

307 Sniper

admin · August 12, 2012 · Leave a Comment

This is just a guess: you are not a Sniper.

So you don’t take infinite pains / time to aim and adjust and re-aim and re-adjust and…

until you pass to one ‚perfect‘ action.

And so, because you are not a Sniper, your aim is off.

Oh, just a little. Well, as it leaves the barrel.

Then the further it gets, the more ‚wrong‘ it becomes.

So, unless you are a Sniper, correct those things that you (yes, you!) did wrong as soon as possible.

Otherwise, as it nears the target, the error gets so very large … then you truly are wrong.

Only an amateur believes that error correction draws unwanted attention to self.

Early correction of initially slight errors is the way all targets are achieved.

Unless you are a Sniper.

You’re not a Sniper, are you?

Then don’t delay to correct the initially small things!

(Family stuff too.)
