Why You Should Consciously Choose Consequences - Decision Making

As a human being, you are wired to seek pleasure and avoid pain… Seek the wanted, avoid the unwanted. This wiring governs your decisions and actions.

What is The Purpose of Life? Life is an Adventure

What is the purpose of life? This question has plagued people for centuries. It is the subject of religious, philosophical and cultural debate the world over. No person lives their life without asking this question at least once.

Taking Action Is A Crucial Part Of Manifestation

Something very important to understand about life is that it doesn’t matter how much information you have, if you don’t apply it.

How Your Inner Compass Leads You to Both Pleasure and Pain

All people possess an internal guidance system. Sometimes people call it ‘the inner voice’. Sometimes people call it ‘the internal compass’. Sometimes people call it their emotional guidance system. This internal guidance system helps a person navigate life, make choices and keep heading towards their desires. But people make a faulty assumption about the internal guidance system.

The Cube Test

Follow along with this exercise, keeping in mind that it is important to try to concentrate on how you feel about what you are describing and not just on how it looks. For example, you may describe something as a certain color because it gives you a feeling of calmness. However, another person may describe a different color but say that it gives him or her a sense of calmness.

Why Love Isn't Selfless, Love is Selfish

Why Love Isn't Selfless, Love is Selfish. In this video I'll explain why love is selfish and not why love isn't selfless. To generalize, wherever you go in the world, in human society selflessness is a huge value. At face value, this seems like a good thing.

What is the Dupe Pattern?

There are a few common dysfunctional relationship patterns that people slip into that if not resolved, will cause inevitable end to a relationship. One of those patterns is one that I call the “Dupe Pattern”.
