    You can go with standard cute replies, or you can get serious, and study this with people who really care about it.

    It's not a simple magic trick, and its not a few phrases.

    You can find out, and open to the unlimited nature of what is, if you are willing to creak the hinges of your mind to the learning of people who follow two thousand years of study, and effort in India, China, Japan.

    The most complex, thrilling, and final game of all is life. To play it well you have to grit your teeth, expand your consciousness way beyond what you think is possible, and go for the whole.

    I have modernized, and westernized the translations of some of the concepts in this blog.

    The ultimate potential self has no limits save the the limits placed on ones own self through belief or disbelief. The inner nature of man is aware or unaware, is selfish or selfless, connected or disconnected etc etc. what decides the fate of a man is attitude, opportunity, motivation & perseverance. Sometimes just dumb luck.

    I've seen those with the greatest potential fail the best. Something was missing -

    usually perseverance or lack of humility. The biggest battle most of us face in life is ourselves no matter who we try to pass off responsibility to.

    Mindset constrains the nature or frees it.

    Variety is the spice of life, but it isn't a hard answer. There isn't an absolutist frame of mind for variety, when it comes down to the actual daily approach to commitments (some call them price tags), any unified system is incidental and instantly outdated. Knowing age comes before knowing youth. The greatest potential is the potential of the good, and it is realized only in the precise and realistic---sometimes demanding---ways that people present to themselves. Nothing is better than the right influence upon quality of life.

    Here is a set of options:

    1. Fate or Hope or Luck or Ambition

    2. Science or Psychology or Philosophy or Religion

    3. Personality or Influence or Words or Weapons

    4. Dream or Career or Art or Gambling

    We need to choose one thing in each of those lists. They run in order of increasing desperation.

    Resistance constrains the unification of inner man with outer man. Letting go of resistance and allowing communication leads to the flow.

    If I can hang with Christ the sky the limits! For if I be free he is free indeed! It’s the lesson that makes things really happen, it may be a chore to free to it, but if we hold sure the confession of righteousness’ the doors open themselves.

    Sounds of I is key of heartl,

    and face of them is sure fit I,

    makes pleasant a days’ work.

    “If The Son therefore will set you free, you will truly be the children of liberty.”

    And on another note: Luke 17:20-21

    (20) Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God does not come with observation; (21) nor will they say, "See here!" or "See there!" For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you."

    You can not sever two masters!

    "No man can work for two masters, for either he will hate one and will love the other, or he will honor one and the other he will ignore. You cannot work for God and for money." (Matthew 6:24)

    The task is plain to see, before you, Him a happy man.

    it's hard to let go if that what one is letting go is considered to be part of oneself.
