The most amazing thing has been happening to me lately, I’ve been diving into moments of synchronicity and swimming in the stream of consciousness. It’s like when you’re communicating and all of a sudden these amazing statements came out of your mouth, that sound incredibly wise and well articulated but you wonder where they came from.
Every day I riide my bicycle along the Pacific ocean and I practice breathing and intentionally defrag my mental hard-drive and clean my random memory access, often times it happens easily, especially when I see wildlife in nature, doing what wildlife tends to do, it captivates my mind and I forget about the things that were preoccupying me only moments previously.
After having practised this disciplined and regular mental CCleaner for the brain for such a long time, I’m beginning to really notice the differences in my life. Oddly enough my vision of how I wanted things to go, has started to go the way I had hoped. Nothing is ever perfect of course but the best part of my gradual improvement, in clarity of purpose, was that I occasionally find that I’m able to write entire paragraphs and realize that I wasn’t really concentrating on what I was saying, the keyboard was accepting my fingers and the words were just tumbling out on to the page in front of me.
Most of the time it’s more laborious for me, that’s because my mind is holding too many different things in the ram at the same time, whereas I need to be either completely focused on the topic, or being really immersed in the idea I’m trying to convey and if I’m informed on the topic, it’s become easier to write, plus more enjoyable, than ever before.
When I was a teenager I wanted to be a writer one day, if I’d only written more then, it’s like I’m forty years too late to catching on to the joy of writing…. oh well, this blog is much more fun than writing a book anyway and the purpose always has been to seek that Stream of Consciousness where the words come through me, rather than from me.
I realize I promised not to spin negative yarns and talk conspiracy here on this blog, especially since I’m recovering from my own cognitive dissonance and doing awesome in my recovery. Occasionally I’ll gripe about the aerosol injections in the sky over my head, and wish they wouldn’t spray us but I generally keep it to myself and just avoid being in the mist clouds when they come to land. It’s just part of Living in a Post Truth World.
During the summer here in BC you can see geo-engineering so obviously man made, against the backdrop of blue skies, with big puffy white normal clouds, seen far away, climbing the mountains (as clouds normally do). The contrast of the 2 cloud types is obvious but the frogs have been boiled already and nothing anyone could say makes any difference in the new world of total truth duality.
Duality means there is more than one truth and two people can have different versions of truth. One person say’s contrail and I say chemtrail, that’s just one of hundreds of examples and I’m not about to force cognitive dissonance on anyone, even my enemy, so I accept both versions.
Duality in every category, in every world leader, in every important topic and in every fabric of society. Wrong is right, right is wrong.
The confusion is by design and essential for there to be order from chaos because first you need chaos. The best way to achieve chaos is to delete the truth and leave only the questions by themselves, like a half-baked frozen pizza, it looks fine on the surface but as soon as you bite in you immediately know something is wrong. You’re not being fed the truth.
Did
CIA Director William Casey really say, “We’ll know our disinformation
program is complete when everything the American public believes is
false”?
It’s not so important what that CIA director said off the record because his predecessor, William Colby said that the Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in major media. On the record, period…. full stop. Take a read of a 1996 article from the LA Times – Colby: The Man Who Told Secrets. This explains how we became a Post Truth World.
Recently the sealed records from the JFK job were released to prove that it was a coup and the gov was the trigger, period – full stop. Therefore the best way to protect the eventual truth from coming out was the change the meaning of truth, exactly as the Mr. Casey was quoted as having said.
I forgive all these people, since I think that most things are done with good intentions but it was the words of JFK himself that really close the case on the entire topic and should make anyone realize that it’s got to end. It will end because we are awakening to the real truth.
The very word “secrecy” is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions. Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it is in my control. And no official of my Administration, whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know.
Before you can develop proof of concept you need to have a business plan, a dream, a passion, time money and ambition. It’s often compared to climbing Mt. Everest but I promise you it’s much harder and many more people have made the trek and everybody starts at the bottom.
Over a decade ago I was a student and member of the record setting success of Rich Schefren and his launch of Strategic Profits, which all started with the single best piece of free information ever given to the public about how to operate a business online, the Internet Business Manifesto. The manifesto is such valuable knowledge that it’s required reading for anyone in business.
According to Rich Schefren, unless you have more money in the bank at the end of the week, than at the beginning, you are not in business. Cash flow is the blood of business, with positive cash flow you have proof of concept. If your enterprise has negative cash flow your business is on life support and someone needs to invest money into your company to keep it alive.
The very best Business Model development school is the 4 Week MBA where any company that has gained proof of concept, to any notable degree and all those that have set records, the business model of one and all is laid bare, defined, explained, itemized and analyzed to provide the student the ingredients to the most successful cakes that have ever been baked.
At the end of the day, the primary factor for success remains the same as the late great Napoleon Hill told us some eighty years ago, in his amazing book “Think and Grow Rich” where the key is to find a problem and solve it.
Think and Grow Rich was written by Napoleon Hill in 1937
While the book’s title and much of the writing concerns increasing income, the author insists that his philosophy can help people succeed in any line of work, to do and be anything they can imagine. First published during the Great Depression, the book sold more than 20 million copies by Hill’s death in 1970. By 2015, more than 100 million copies had been sold worldwide.
It remains the biggest seller of Napoleon Hill’s books. BusinessWeek magazine’s Best-Seller List ranked it the sixth best-selling paperback business book 70 years after it was published. Think and Grow Rich is listed in John C. Maxwell‘s A Lifetime “Must Read” Books List.
Content
Think and Grow Rich is based on Hill’s earlier work The Law of Success, said to be the result of more than twenty years of study of many individuals who had amassed personal fortunes.
Hill studied their habits and drew some 16 “laws” to be applied to achieve success. Think and Grow Rich condenses them, providing the reader with 13 principles in the form of a “Philosophy of Achievement”. The book asserts that desire, faith, and persistence can propel one to great heights if one can suppress negative thoughts and focus on long-term goals.
The 13 “steps” listed in the book are:
Desire
Faith
Autosuggestion
Specialized Knowledge
Imagination
Organized Planning
Decision
Persistence
Power of the Master Mind
The Mystery of Sex Transmutation
The Subconscious Mind
The Brain
The Sixth Sense
In this article I’ve provided three sources of knowledge to obtain, if you want to know how to Develop Proof of Concept but in the begging of this I compared Business Development to climbing Mt. Everest where there’s a few important take-away ideas, like the imagination it takes to want to climb a mountain (how could that be fun?), consider the determination it must take, just to get to the base-camp? Recognize the commitment it takes once you start trekking towards the top…. there’s no turning back…. now you really ask yourself if you had prepared the best you could, if you have good team members and even whether or not you are on the right path.
For some of us, there is no choice but to make the trek again and again until we make it to the top because we know that it’s the most rewarding mission you can take and the only path towards freedom from having to exchange the hours of your life for enough money to keep planning for the next climb but as you get older you know how tough it gets in bad weather and there’s no room for mistakes anymore. You must be prepared.
What’s at the peak and why this obsession? Once a business make’s it past launch of a start-up and with good planning and business launch formula a company will next experience rapid-growth, which is like the hardest and most dangerous part of the climb and many businesses fail from their own success and implode for various reasons but the next phase is called stability and that’s the summit. You can now plant your flag and sell your company to prepare for your next climb. – The end.
Once upon a time I was a licensed Real Estate Agent in Toronto, Canada and I met these experts at limited partnership, real estate development. They were a couple and both with allot of experience in major resort development in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
The year was 1987 and I was learning from two seasoned veterans how to sell real estate on a far away island, to people from Ontario. Why would a Canadian buy island property you might ask? Well, it would seem that the enterprising couple had learned how to use a Family Estate Trust, to own Limited Partnerships and not need to pay tax, or some such thing.
It was all new to me, the idea of buying a limited partnership in a beautiful luxury tropical resort and what ended up happening is those same laws were created for Ontario, not Turks and Caicos but many groups used those regulations to build a glut, also my real estate board said that it was the exploitation of Limited Partnerships that caused the great real estate crash of 1989. Another good thing gone wrong.
Interesting that I’ve always had a desire to visit the Turks and Caicos Islands because what I learned was that for a couple of decades there had been concentrated investments in developing real estate of all kinds and that the location and the luxury of these communities was exceptional.
So I was very happy to be involved in a project recently, that seeks commercial property and licenses in the Turks and Caicos, especially after having seen Bruce Willis had sold his enclave there. Many people say it’s the most incredible tropical properties in the world. Guess I’ll just have to go there and see for myself. Stay tuned, I’ll keep you posted.
The Turks and Caicos Islands (abbreviated TCI; are a British Overseas Territory consisting of the larger Caicos Islands and smaller Turks Islands, two groups of tropical islands in the Lucayan Archipelago of the Atlantic Ocean and northern West Indies. They are known primarily for tourism and as an offshore financial centre. The resident population was 31,458 as of 2012 of whom 23,769 live on Providenciales in the Caicos Islands; July 2018 estimates put the population at 53,700. It is the third largest of the British overseas territories by population.
The Turks and Caicos Islands lie southeast of Mayaguana in the Bahamas island chain, northeast of Cuba, and north of the island of Hispaniola (Haiti and the Dominican Republic). Cockburn Town, the capital since 1766, is situated on Grand Turk Island about 1,042 kilometres (647 mi) east-southeast of Miami, United States. The islands have a total land area of 430 square kilometres (170 sq mi).
The Turks and Caicos Islands were inhabited for centuries by native Amerindian peoples. The first recorded European sighting of the islands occurred in 1512. In the subsequent centuries, the islands were claimed by several European powers, with the British Empire eventually gaining control. For many years the islands were governed indirectly through Bermuda, the Bahamas, and Jamaica. When the Bahamas gained independence in 1973, the islands received their own governor, and have remained a separate autonomous British Overseas Territory since.
The Turks and Caicos Islands are named after the Turk’s cap cactus (Melocactus intortus), and the Lucayan term caya hico, meaning ‘string of islands
Once upon a time I was the Bahama Out Islands webmaster, until the Ministry of Tourism amalgamated that site, which I had archived, with thousands of photos sent by the resort owners. As there were, at that time in the 90’s about 72 Resorts, Hotels, Motels and Guest Houses listed on the website, from about a dozen different islands of the Bahamas.
While I lived in South Florida for over a dozen years I was able to visit some of the Bahamas and several Caribbean islands, also having been addicted to Earnest Hemmingway I was always attracted to the Keys, the sea and the islands of the Caribbean. Bermuda and Bahamas are not in the Caribbean Sea, which often comes as a surprise to people.
Always wanted to see Bermuda, nor have I been to Turks and Caicos, which I often gripe should have been a Canadian protectorate, as Canada helped build T&C but in the 50’s our leadership voted against adopting T&C into Canada – sad day in my opinion. However, Bermuda is unique and the most separate from the Caribbean
Giancarlo Zema Design Group
Recently projects in Turks and Caicos have been going through my inbox and perhaps the most exciting project since the Roaring Thunder Resort and Casino on Victoria Falls in Tanzania (a story for another day), is the combo Eco-resort and Agriplex in Bermuda with collaboration of the super cool Italian genius of the Giancarlo Zema Design Team to work with Ninurta Enterprises and Rosario de Medici to incorporate scientific agriculture, vertical gardening and aquaculture in an ultimate sea meets land eco resort.
The Agriplex sustainable vertical garden with aquaculture for food production will help to make Bermuda food-secure and self-sustaining, plus ecologically low-impact but economically big impact because people are going to want to experience living in a garden and eating from what is grown all around you. It just makes sense that Bermuda would be the first place we create this magical combo of farming and tourism.
I recon if I live long enough that Earthships, Organite and Pyramid Power will become so common as to be blasé, as the millennial’s have now picked up on organite and many more people are learning about earthships. Eventually everyone will know about these wonderful products.
In my mind I’d be ecstatic if Michael Reynolds, the inventor of Earthship Biotecture from New Mexico were to find a practical way to incorporate both organite and pyramid energy into his designs, most likely he has at one project over so many builds (as they call them), however I’ve yet to see one.
As for Organite, it’s largely due to rising awareness of damaging EMF waves caused by wifi in our world of IoT, so on Amazon for example there are dozens if not hundreds of Organite vendors selling a vast array of designs, styles, shapes and sizes but by far the most common is the pyramid. Although, keep in mind that organite was originally generated in a cabinet that resembled a thick wooden cabinet, so the pyramid shape was adopted.
It’s the combination of the pyramid and the elements inside the resin that cause the most effect and I’m not one to be able to notice it but they can be tested by using an EMF sensor and a cell phone, measuring with and without the organite. So there you have it, we can’t prove that organite actually omits anything but we can provide that it reduces EMF (electro magnetic frequency).
The key purpose of a good organite pyramid is to use near your head when you are sleeping, so that you can give your brain a better rest from the constant bombardment of the hidden waves we call wifi. Then the the pyramid is mentioned here to, as it’s similar in that it’s hard to prove that the correctly tuned structure does anything measurable but there’s dozens of test you can do, for example cut fruit in half and put half in and half out but once again all you can prove is what doesn’t happen.
Earthships are the most exciting invention to me, since the wheel. To get people living in shelters that produce food and generate their own electricity is such a breakthrough towards creating peaceful, happy existence on planet earth and get off the grid and back to nature.
I found a new Earthship video today, from Collingwood, Ontario and I want to share this and keep spreading the good news.
The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and the British bands made such an impact on my generation, we were awe struck from the first note and I know I wasn’t alone at the time, nor am I alone now. Perhaps the greatest cross-culture music movement of all time, and it triggered a rock renaissance in the USA as a response. There were so many great new bands at one time, from both sides of the Atlantic, that each week a new classic hit was dropped
In the first waves of the British invasion we were introduced to bands like the Who, the Rolling Stones, Cream and a long list of legends, as well as artist like Eric Clapton and Sting, just to mention a couple. So the America’s responded with Leonard Skynard selling out Wembly Stadium in London and Creedence Clearwater Revival, the Grateful Dead and the Eagles, with Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell and Jimi Hendrix blasting there way into the hearts of the British rock fans, and across every border and language.
The Beatles, Let it Be was the first cassette tape I ever bought and that started my life-long passion for rock n roll music, which continues-on today. My favourite song remains “Come Together” and I feel sorry for my parents when I listen to this song, wondering if they know it word for word, from me playing it in the car, on the way to the ski club in the winter.
The Beatles Summary from Wikipedia
Led by primary songwriters Lennon and McCartney, the Beatles built their reputation playing clubs in Liverpool and Hamburg over a three-year period from 1960, initially with Stuart Sutcliffe playing bass. The core trio of Lennon, McCartney and Harrison, who had been together since 1958, went through a succession of drummers, including Pete Best, before asking Starr to join them in 1962. Manager Brian Epstein moulded them into a professional act, and producer George Martin guided and developed their recordings, greatly expanding their domestic success after their first hit, “Love Me Do“, in late 1962. As their popularity grew into the intense fan frenzy dubbed “Beatlemania“, the band acquired the nickname “the Fab Four”, with Epstein, Martin and other members of the band’s entourage sometimes given the informal title of “fifth Beatle“.
The Beatles were international stars by early 1964, leading the “British Invasion” of the United States pop market and breaking numerous sales records. They soon made their film debut with A Hard Day’s Night (1964). From 1965 onwards, they produced increasingly innovative recordings, including the albums Rubber Soul (1965), Revolver (1966) and Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967), and enjoyed further commercial success with The Beatles (also known as the “White Album”, 1968) and Abbey Road (1969). In 1968, they founded Apple Corps, a multi-armed multimedia corporation that continues to oversee projects related to the band’s legacy. After the group’s break-up in 1970, all four members enjoyed success as solo artists. Lennon was shot and killed in December 1980, and Harrison died of lung cancer in November 2001. McCartney and Starr remain musically active.
1. A miracle is a correction. It does not create, nor really change at all. It merely looks on devastation, and reminds the mind that what it sees is false. It undoes error, but does not attempt to go beyond perception, nor exceed the function of forgiveness. Thus it stays within time’s limits.
Yet it paves the way for the return of timelessness and love’s
awakening, for fear must slip away under the gentle remedy it brings.
2. A miracle contains the gift of grace, for it is given and received as one. And thus it illustrates the law of truth the world does not obey, because it fails entirely to understand its ways. A miracle inverts perception which was upside down before, and thus it ends the strange distortions that were manifest. Now is perception open to the truth. Now is forgiveness seen as justified.
3. Forgiveness is the home of miracles. The eyes of Christ deliver them to all they look upon in mercy and in love. Perception stands corrected in His sight, and what was meant to curse has come to bless. Each lily of forgiveness offers all the world the silent miracle of love.
And each is laid before the Word of God, upon the universal altar to
Creator and creation in the light of perfect purity and endless joy.
4. The miracle is taken
first on faith, because to ask for it implies the mind has been made
ready to conceive of what it cannot see and does not understand. Yet faith will bring its witnesses to show that what it rested on is really there.
And thus the miracle will justify your faith in it, and show it rested
on a world more real than what you saw before; a world redeemed from
what you thought was there.
5. Miracles fall like drops of healing rain from Heaven on a dry and dusty world, where starved and thirsty creatures come to die. Now they have water. Now the world is green. And everywhere the signs of life spring up, to show that what is born can never die, for what has life has immortality.
Norm Sklar was a good man and now he’s gone and I can’t stop thinking about what a positive force he was in my life. It was just a few days ago that we were last talking and never more than a week would pass without some sharp witted dialog with Norm, a New York Expat from Costa Rica.
Over the course of the past few years Norm and I developed a really close bond and the weirdest thing is though, that we had never met in real life and yet we often talked every day for five days in a row. We had so many plans and just about to execute on some of them, one of which was to take Norm for Dim Sum with our Chinese colleagues in Vancouver.
Norm had a tremendous regard for the Chinese culture, having earned 3 black belts he had been trained and mentored by martial artists from China that lived in New York where Norm grew-up and lived much of his life. He often talked about how connected he was with Chinese people in NYC, and elsewhere. Naturally, he was always very appreciative of the associates he made in Beijing via Vancouver. His specialty was infrastructure funding agreements, or any type of bank note contract.
The locals of Escazu in Costa Rica loved Norm and knew that he was a Master Champion Bridge player, as well as karate champion. He’d travelled to all central American countries, lived many years in Panama and had made major contributions to these people, by setting up clinics and bringing superior medical technology to Guatemala and El Salvador.
Recently Norm had been solving energy generating issues for a power company in Brazil, by introducing California based engineers that he had been coaching and nurturing. Really, Norm had been helping many people in at least a dozen different projects, many of these projects are focused on clean drinking water, medicine and electricity. This work will continue, as Norm would have insisted. He will not be forgotten when it’s done.
There’s so much to say about Norm Sklar that I’m going to ask for some further input from our mutual friends and attempt to find some good photos. I’m really feeling a big loss but hope that he’s in peace and back with God.
Australia (Oz) taught me so much and I was so green in my twenties that looking back, I consider my years from the age of twenty one to twenty five to have been my college education. Also, it was the years leading up to the move to Australia, where I worked in the toughest jobs in Canada, from work camps inside the Arctic circle and up the sides of the Rocky Mountains. Seasonal work in every industry, such as mining, logging, tree-planting and lot’s of pipeline construction, with a stint in seismic to boot.
I was RWA (ready willing and able) in Oz
I survived the first part of my youth and felt well prepared for Australia and one lesson I learned there from the very beginning, well two, always say “Good day” to people you pass in the morning, whether you know them or not, and the second and most important lesson; there’s no free lunch. Although I did here about young Brits who had come to exploit the unemployment insurance that accept people who had never previously worked to pay into it. That was what they called “the Dole” since they doled it out and some people surfed every day while collecting free money.
We all know that there’s a massive inequity in the distribution of wealth on our planet, much of it has to do with access to information. Yes, really, often times people just don’t know the same things other people know and usually it’s because we are not asking the right questions. However, what you come to learn, is that knowledge is power, not money and that is why Oz was part of my journey to find, obtain and consume knowledge.
Starting with the Penguin Classics I read every great author and anything recommended to me. From the start of my journey I’ve never had less than 3 books on the go at a time, same as now. I let each book suggest the next and follow all topics to their source, until I feel satisfied I understand and then move on. Some classic authors are harder to relate to, like James Joyce for example, it takes longer to appreciate than Joseph Conrad, for example but within every single book was the clues to my path to current day.
Fast forward to 2010 where the library in Youtube had now grown to encompass every single writer, every single book and all the ideas contained within them and indexed out into incredible byte sized downloads, to meet the maximum data input rate, of an information addict (me) accustomed to the highest doses, that is how I am. I turned that logic analysis machine, which is my mind, into a funnel with filters and then poured as much information through it as was possible.
One of my main questions, especially because I have been the editor of Invest Offshore and report on cross-border banking, is there an evil cabal of people who intentionally control the world through the central banking system? Then, secondly, and largely because of my favourite classic that touches upon this topic with historical context; The Prince by Niccolò Machiavelli what knowledge can I derive from this information.
The answer is to the first is yes, and corroborated by the The Creature from Jekyll Island (1994) by G. Edward Griffin. The answer to the second is to become an agent of Private Placement Programs (PPP) and to become knowledgeable in Bank Trading Platforms. Then with this knowledge, seek and find qualified participants and inform them of this knowledge, explain how it can benefit them and provide an introduction to the experts.
The lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox cannot defend himself from wolves. One must therefore be a fox to recognize traps, and a lion to frighten wolves.
Niccolò Machiavelli
The Prince is an extended analysis of how to acquire and maintain political power. It includes 26 chapters and an opening dedication to Lorenzo de Medici. The dedication declares Machiavelli’s intention to discuss in plain language the conduct of great men and the principles of princely government.
So in the end, it’s who you know and what you know, then being able to prove that you can help them. That sounds an awful lot like politics to me : ). So, all you need to know, is someone with vast amounts of money and show them Private Placement Programs (PPP) and Bank Trading Platforms, then introduce them to a banker that is willing to award you for introducing the person with vast quantities of money.
Sounds simple right? Like Money for nothing, just remember though, that there’s no free lunch.
