The Power of The Thought
Here Mooji explains how to view the thinking process and how anyone can escape being distracted or controlled by unwanted thoughts. Great advice for anyone who wants to transcend a particular stream of consciousness for another preferred path. Mooji describes how all thoughts gain power from the importance and meaning we ascribe to them, and then provides insight on how we can choose which thoughts we want to give more attention to. What thoughts would you like to trade today?
Bono recites Bukowski
Poem: "A roll of the dice." Bukowski advised us to "Go all the way", before Nike told us all to "Just do it." In this poem, recited by Bono, Bukowski tells us to be prepared to make trades and sacrifices in order to go after what we truly want. Is it possible not to have to sacrifice? Is it possible to have it all? As Steven Wright once said, "We can't have everything, because if we could, we wouldn't know where to put it." So for everything received, something is given up.
Charles Bukowski "Bluebird."
Charles Bukowski led a hard life of emotional suffering stemming back to his childhood. In his early years he had more to express than it seemed people close to him, even his father, cared to hear. Yet despite a depressive upbringing, he was self-driven and pushed himself forward to share his feelings and let others know they are not alone in their personal suffering and private pain. In "Bluebird", Bukowski beautifully conveys the feeling of wanting to share personal feelings but wondering if it is safe to do so. What is in your heart wanting to get out? Is it safer to hold it in or more safe to let it out?

ChangeThis :: ChangeThis
At ChangeThis you can get up to date perspectives from excellent thinkers, some well-known, others not. Think of the offerings there as free samples for the mind, a nice introduction to current non-ficition authors across a wide variety of disciplines. Some of the less disciplined (i.e. less rigid) authors can be even more stimulating. They speak in their own unique voice, telling it like it is, without pomposity or posing. You are even urged to send their works along and spread the word.
