Life is just what is there. Part of spirituality is letting go.

Okay, feeling myself get worked up about life purpose again… I seem to go through waves. How can I correct this? 
 

I want to honour my life, be wealthy, so what I love and do good for the world.

I am also noting a tendency to ruminate, blame, demonize, hate, judge, imagine revenge, etc towards people who “harmed” me… like a past employer, and this marketing course.

Todays question is… in what ways do I act or think like a child?

I am getting more insight into my low integrity, or double mindedness. This marketing course I’ve been so upset about, how I left some (then deleted) nasty reviews, etc… I think had many factors been different… 

Ultimately the whole thing is 100% my responsibility. My mind has been working to understand from different perspectives what the situation is as I still don’t understand marketing fully, or how to put an accurate valuation on information products. The course didn’t earn me money. I honestly don’t feel in retrospect I was ready for the course. But, now knowing that I can change.

New book.. opening pages talk about the Tao, leadership, conflict resolution, peace and harmony and systems thinking.

you must contradict yourself

Finally tried adding ground black pepper to my cinnamon and ginger tea. It's surpisingly good, really brings together the tea actually in terms of flavour but also warmness. Totally recommend if you live somewhere damp and cold.

Next few books I will buy will be on sales, marketing, sales copy, handling objections, client journeys, email marketing etc.. This will build off of my marketing course investment which taught me a lot about sales funnels, copy writing etc

Not all of Leo’s teachings will be applicable to me because I am unique. Also, I need to note and discover the unique personality quirks Leo has in his way of seeing and teaching. I need to avoid the trap of emulating him and instead create something unique and authentic to me. I need to verify information for myself, think for myself , and get direct experience in things for myself. I should be mindful when I am saying I know things I don’t know and when I am copy catting people.

I am going to do a review of my Qigong teacher training. I am going to write short essays on each of the key things I learned in my Qigong teacher training:

1. The 5 Elements 

2. The Three Treasures 

3. The Microcosmic Orbit

4. The Healing sounds

I will also contemplate 

1. What are the fundamentals?

2. What are the basic principles of Qigong?

3. What is a Qigong/ Toaist lifestyle?
 

Then, I will create my first course and go through the process of sales copy, presale, sales process, sales funnel, closing sales, , sales calls maybe, course creation, executing on the course deliverables and then reflect on the success or failure of this. Then, I will review the principles of mastery and effective interaction, my clients wants and needs, noting any errors, I will focus on learning and experience and not number of sales only. 

I will continue creating and marketing courses until I have a successful evergreen product that sells regularly. I will continue to develop more comprehensive courses, workshops, etc

There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true
Oh why

There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear

We're lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We're trapped in a world
That's troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly

Deep in my heart there's a trembling question
Still I am sure that the answer, answer's gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle, yeah
And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream
Oh, please let my dream
Come true
Right now
Let it come true right now
Oh yeah

The Buddhist 4 Noble Truths and the 8 fold path are very practical for living a good life. When combined with studying other schools of though it serves as a solid pillar.
