Well, now.
Well. How to begin.
New thoughts, coming in. All the time they keep coming and coming, and I keep receiving and Receiving.
Here, now. T Harv Eker is someone I've never personally met, but I have read most of his book and I have been to "The Millionaire MInd Intensive" and I bought the package, the Platinum Package, honey.
Now.
Here is what I learned. For myself. For the record, for the Record.
I learned that you have to be very, very Careful about who your guru is.
I learned that even the best of Intentions can be smeared a bit with the desire for power, Power.
Now.
I have no desire to fight this out with anyone because it is not a fighting matter, it is not an issue of anyone getting upset with what I have to say, and me defending anything. It is an experience that can be recounted and retold and I am doing that. Because it has a lot of Good in it, to do so.
At the Intensive seminar, which lasts for two days and three evenings, and has much in common with Landmark Forum seminars (which are also something valuable), I played the game like everyone else. Those who didn't wish to play were welcomed to leave and some certainly did and yes, it dwindled. I heard a lot of stories about the positive changes in people.
I wasn't one of them, not for a long, long time. In fact, I suffered a great deal afterwards from feelings of extreme failure and self-disappointment because I Could Not, or as I'm sure many would say, I Chose, not to continue with these people, that being T Harv Eker and Peak Potentials .. I did that, I did Warrior Camp, and it was just one fr*gg*ng ordeal after another for days. I got so sick, I became extremely dehydrated and it was puking before the firewalk, honey, out in the field and crouching down so my head would maybe, Maybe stop feeling like it would explode for one moment, please God.
And that was the end of the camps, I was done with the threat of outhouses that overflowed and feeling like you were constantly in prison having to do this and that, honey, like it or not you're not a warrior if you're not Doing it.
Now.
That was it, for me. I am a woman and a strong woman and I don't need anyone else shoving that sh*t down my throat, I have been throught fricking childbirth three times, honey, count 'em Three and they were experiences that would rock the boat of any man. Hah. I have been a single mother and raised a child who's really successful in life, and happy and active, without financial help from anybody, including his irresponsible physician father who now lives in Italy to escape detention in the U.S.
So, I couldn't do anymore of this stuff. But I had a program to go through with a coach, because I signed up for the whole package, honey.
And I learned that you have to be really careful who your gurus are.
I couldn't do it anymore, after nine months we essentially both threw up our hands in disgust at each other, that is, my coach and I. And I ended up suicidal during the time I was under his coaching. And that's okay, because I came through it.
I did. And now I'm reaching huge levels of potential, that i never thought I had before.
Now, I signed over my package, this Platinum Package with all these other camps to go to, to my ex-husband.
My ex-husband, who used to be very, extremely Unenlightened, has gained some valuable insights into his life and he's progressing and I believe he will become financially successful one day, which is what he really wants right now.
I never wanted that. My real desires lay in other directions.
Be careful who your gurus are.
Be VERY CAREFUL about the way they send their messages across.
Because if their message, essentially, turns out to be laced with too much of their own desire for power, they could hurt you.
Be careful.
Listen to your own heart.
Take the time to be still, when something doesn't feel right, and really listen to your heart.
Because what works for one person, doesn't work for everyone .. and when the intentions, the Intentions, such as the desire to make money in order to "do things for others" overcomes the desire Not to Do Harm ... a lot of damage can be done.
People are helped, and people are hurt.
Always.

Scattered, that last post. But I will get to my point, and then I'll sift through it all later, and put it together cohesively to make sense. Because there's much that's not been said, stuff that hasn't been explored, but this is true. That I'm donating a sum of money to Sudanese refugees, today, and on Monday I'm going to work the morning for them. That is their time. Monday morning is for them.
What a Wonderful way to see it, finally, to give it scope and meaning and spread good energy in every direction.
And yes, T. Harv, one day I will have Lots of passive income, darling, and I will use it the way I use it today.
Now.
Before the income, comes the intention. The Intention, Darling.
Thank you.
Mwah.

Hmm, not a "Desire not to do harm"... a desire to do Only Good. To create only that which is Good.
As the overwhelming goal, the overwhelming objective.
F*ck your status, status is just a tool.
Trouble is, it gets insides people's heads, it messes with their egos, their egos Love Status, honey, it's more than a tool now, it's crept into your insides and it's there
in
your
eyes.

Scary, to think I promised myself a lot of money.
Why do I think that's a possibility?
Why do I think my old age will be more than sitting in an apartment, every day aging a little bit more, maybe going out for Sunday tea, maybe a little bit of pot-gardening, maybe a little seeing my children, babysit the grandkids .. maybe a little ... f*ck*ng lonely old age .. no, I don't think so.
No.
Not for me. Not, not for me. No, I will be happy in my old age because it will Mean Something and I WILL NOT be confined to a safe little life. Not a small life. No, please god, no.
This is the end of the thread.
