    how to be able to take criticism and then build from it. too many people let it knock them down and keep them from succeeding. there are stories of the few who let it fuel them and they achieve great things. imagine what the world would be if more people had the ability to see past the "nay-sayers" and stay true to their goals.

    First, I will list some basic principles.

    If you like life, and light in it, get with what is real, and dump the agendas of guilt, and misdirection that are imposed by religions, schools, political parties, merchants, and anyone who is more interested in the status quo than waking up.

    Whatever you can’t verify for yourself confuses your mind, creates questions with answers that tie you up with doubt, or force you into fanaticism. They weaken your life.

    Since the universe is vast and complex, it is not possible to verify all the details.

    It is possible to verify the mode of operation of everything, If you start with what you know to be true, no matter what, them everything else becomes a source of life with the light of wisdom, and joy because you will not have collisions with reality caused by mistaken beliefs. This only takes four short paragraphs.

    1. Energy exists, and matter exists. Matter does not exist without energy. Energy cannot be seen. So what you see is both visible, and comes from the invisible.

    2. Causes produce effects.

    3. Events change, yet lives continue.

    4. There isn’t any activity, or thing, that doesn’t fit within those three sentences. If you FOCUS your mind-attention on the combination of those sentences, your mind can let go of many unnecessary questions, and you will waste less life-energy. You build life-knowledge from the combination of these four reality descriptions.

    Many research results have verified sentences 1-4. The science is solid.

    It's just hard to turn a group of sentences into an effective mental tool. A compassionate genius named Nichiren recognized that 1-3 was already condensed into five words by a Chinese scholar named Kumarajiva. Nichiren added the sixth word for sentence four and created the amazingly powerful method of achieving the cognitive integration so often sought, and talked about as goals, by so many.

    I started using this method in the depth of despair, and quickly solved those particular problems. There have been crises since then, and I overcame each of them by using the Nichiren method of the six word cognitive integration . At each stage, I won the game of life.

    They are pronounced Nam Myoho Renge Kyo. When you say them repeatedly, you can clear your mind, give yourself hope and courage, and let yourself create the life you want.

    It is a real good idea to join others who are also doing so. Support groups are vital in any significant undertaking.

    As an instructor and consultant, I teach others and advise in great abundance. One thing I have learned about life though is that we would like others to learn from our mistakes but, we forget that the only way we learned were through our own. In school, were are given a lesson and then tested. In life we are tested and hopefully learn a lesson.

    TWO POINTS of concern, as below to the worthiness of the Bible as exclaimed

    *** g84 3/22 p. 10 Why Should I Read the Bible? ***

    “It is the best book that ever was or will be in the world, because it teaches you the best lessons by which any human creature who tries to be truthful and faithful can possibly be guided.”—Charles Dickens

    14 Can This Book Be Trusted? ***

    “I find more sure marks of authenticity in the Bible than in any profane [secular] history whatsoever.”—Sir Isaac Newton, renowned English scientist.

    I like many others constantly mused over the concepts, of religion, life, and creation but for many years resigned myself to atheism because of any lack of proof to support any religions beliefs. What i needed to see was a miracle; events with odds against so astronomical they’re effectively impossible, like oxygen spontaneously becoming gold. A miracle would not necessarily prove the existence of god, but perhaps give testament to the idea of there being a force out there greater than life and beyond our comprehension. I longed to witness such an event, yet, i neglected that in human coupling. A thousand million sperm vie for a single egg, multiply those odds by countless generations, against the odds of your ancestors being alive; meeting; siring this precise son; that exact daughter. Until finally, your mother loves a man, and of that union, of the thousand million children competing for fertilization, it was you, only you that emerged. To distill so specific a form from that chaos of improbability, its like turning air into gold. That is the crowning unlikelihood.

    I mean, yes, you could say that about anybody in the world, but the world is so full of people, so crowded with these miracles that they become commonplace and we forget; I forget. We gaze continually at the world and it grows dull in our perceptions. Yet seen from another vantage point, as if new, it may still take the breath away. So, rejoice, for you are life, rarer than a quark and unpredictable beyond the dreams of Heisenberg; the clay in which the forces that shape all things leave their fingerprints most clearly.

    Great question Breezey!

    Learning to with whatever life throws at you & still know God is good. I could teach it, but it's also an every minute lesson, that I often need to be taught too.

    I can also teach sign language.

    God bless

    To think for yourself. To do what you want to do, based on what will benefit you in the long term, ignoring whether something else would help someone else. To never sacrifice yourself for others because you are just as important as anyone else and to you, you MUST be the most important person in the world. To love yourself. To be able to throw all those things out if you find someone who deserves it, and live for them - because they are your life, and more - because they'll never ask you to do it.

    I could teach Objectivist ethics, in other words. The philosophy of Ayn Rand and the truth of the values behind Capitalism and Natural Selection.
