Things They Never Told Me At School But Could Have

Posted on by blogger

It’s funny, but when asked about things learnt that have served to be the greatest contribution to their lives most people will not mention anything from schools days. Have you noticed this? I can say that the things I have learnt which have served as a platform for personal growth did not come from the classroom.

Basically, the education system with its tunnel-minded curriculum is designed to make young people fit into boxes for the corporations and suchlike when they come out. In a way, that means, you’re going to have to make up for an absence of really learning about life!

Here are 7 things they never told me at school (but could have).

1. The Importance of Communication

We were never told the importance of communication or trained in this area. Effective communication brings together so many different things and therefore serves as a great life handling tool: Great relationships, successful projects, achievements… are all routed in effective communication.

2. Everything is the expression of consciousness

Life shows up as a consequence of where you are consciously at: Your thoughts, feelings and emotions, attitude… all contribute to the life that ‘shows up’ for you. So, if you don’t like the life you’re living then change these things. For example, if you find yourself in victimhood circumstances (the symptoms of victim consciousness) then look at where you are consciously at and change these things (the root cause).

3. Natural health

Like other schools we had our share of economics teachers but no one ever said that the best investment in life you could ever make is in your health. Because of corporate interests the education curriculum generally focuses only on pharmaceutical approaches when it comes to health. Alternative practitioners and great pioneers with their potentially life-saving approaches based on natural health have been ignored. There are 4 things that support good health. They are: Nutrition, exercise, attitude in life and the environment, but sadly, this is not given enough attention.

4. Applying philosophy

In school we never talked that much about life. No curriculum was ever set up to have conversations and discussions with our teachers on how to handle life; dealing with problems, or how to make relationships work… etc, the things that matter most to us. Sadly most people grow up, possibly out of school habit, seldom talk about life and spend much of their time talking meaningless nah, nah, nah nothings… and look at the result: A world full of people going nowhere in their lives, just like the soap opera characters on TV. Philosophy doesn’t have to be just mere armchair discussion. It can be used to practically apply ideas in life, hence the empowering phrase ‘applying philosophy.’

5. Being yourself

You don’t have to just be some corporate cog-in-wheel care of the education system’s grooming. I have learned that being yourself is your biggest strength. More than ever, particularly on the humanitarian front, the world needs people to think for themselves. Realize that there are other ways, different to this education sausage machine that turns out well educated clones unable to really think for themselves. As Albert Einstein once said “Real thinking is to think the unthinkable…” History has shown outside-of-the-box individuals thinking for themselves and they have contributed greatly to humanity…

6. Having a deep and genuine love for yourself

How do you expect to have a deep and genuine love flowing out there with your family, friends, groups, communities, the environment or all things spiritual… and then have it return on you when you had not began that deep and genuine love right there with your own self? This is consistent with 2 above that life shows up as a consequence of where you are consciously at.

7. The past is your biggest enemy in life

I was never told at school how to learn to realise that my past can run me instead of me running it: Fear, anxiety or an unwillingness to be creative and adventurous… are the operatives here. Because this subject could go into great lengths I’ve decided to make it something for another day. Simpler to say to be in present time, the only place where life exists is something to be cherished and mastered.

Of course, there were others but I’ll leave there, at least for now.

Feng Shui – How It Can Help You in Your Job

Posted on by blogger

Feng Shui enables you to calculate the energies of the building and recommend remedies for the problems that might exist – both before and after you are within a building (or space).

Your office is your resource base. The energy patterns surrounding it have an important influence on your entire life and your financial well being.

Feng Shui uses placement and design to balance and enhance energy flow. Although this ancient Eastern art was developed well before the evolution of the modern office, the principles are applicable to your workplace. So, if you are feeling overstressed and under inspired at work, the following tips might help:

1.Avoid offices that are at the dead-end of a street / road. 2.Do not have two parallel sliding doors into the main office space. Figuratively, the number of employees who quit work is equal to the number that joins. So, it is back to square one, in terms of number of employees on the rolls. 3.Do not sit in such a way that your back faces your boss. Either get a small wooden partition to block the view or change your seat position. Have round or oval shaped tables in the conference room. This will promote good understanding between the members in a board meeting. 4.Never let your subordinates working at a higher ground level than you or your boss sitting on a lower ground level than you. The ground level too should follow hierarchies for all practical purposes. 5.The marketing / sales department (which facilitates cash flow into the office) should have lots of open space to move around. There should be lots of light and breeze flowing in to the room. 6.Keep the entrance of your office free from any obstacle That is after a customer opens the door, he should not immediately confront a huge table (often the receptionist’s table) or a cubicle. 7.When you enter your office (or cubicle, the first thing you see should be an object that makes you happy. It could be a photo or plant – anything that makes you happy to be entering the space. 8.Position your desk as far from the door as possible. If your desk is too close to the door, it gives the impression that you are irresponsible and trying to sneak out of the office early! If your desk is against a wall, it blocks the flow of energy. Make sure that you sit facing the door or window. If this is not possible, hang a mirror above your computer or hang chimes over the door so you can see who’s coming into your office. If you can’t see a window from your desk, hang a picture of the outdoors or a plant directly in your line of vision. Don’t sit under a vent – the draft creates a bad feng shui. If you can’t move your desk, hang a scarf or flag under the vent to direct the draft away from you. 9.Have at least one object in your office that has got nothing to do with your work. A picture of your family, the cricket schedule or a favorite poster will remind you that you have a life outside the office and help create a sense of balance in your day.

Adopting these suggestions can help improve the environment but they can not guarantee success. You still have to work hard at your job!

Feng Shui And The White House

Posted on by blogger

By Kartar Diamond

The original White House in Washington, D.C. was built in 1792. It burned down and was re-built in 1815. Houses are built within 20 year construction cycles that repeat every 180 years. In this regard, the “energy” of the re-built White House is similar to structures that were built 180 years later (1995).

These south-facing “Period 7” houses have both positive and negative features that not only affect the First Family living there, but also make a general statement about our country’s “feng shui,” (i.e.health, prosperity, or reputation as a nation.) In the same way that Chinese Feng Shui Masters make predictions about the Chinese Stock Market, based on the building where the stocks are traded, we can make correlations about the White House’s feng shui symbolizing how American are doing.

The energy at the center of the White House is a 3-2 Flying Star pattern. ***The Flying Star School of Feng Shui takes into account the age of the building and the precise compass alignment. These numbers are code for UNSEEN influences, in the same way that H2O stands for “water.” When this 3-2 energy pattern is in the very center of a house, it means there is greater potential for gossip, arguments, and legal conflicts. Legal problems is not necessarily bad for a government building (that’s the nature of what a government building deals with), but the “3” energy also implies scandal.

Mud-slinging between political parties is an American tradition and the levels of scandal and deception continue to rise. A feng shui consultant did an evaluation of the White House in the mid-1990’s, which was published in an article in Newsweek magazine, where she predicted a sexual scandal long before the Clinton/Lewinsky story broke.

Can Feng Shui predict who will win the election? With enough information, it is possible to make a guesstimate. In the 2000 Election, some astrologers were not able to announce who would win because they were only looking at the positioning of the stars on that very Election Day. It was very indecisive energy that day for both candidates. As we all know, weeks later when we found out the results. If an astrologer had looked into each man’s personal chart, not just on Election Day, but months down the road, then it would have been more obvious who would take over as President.

With analysis of the White House alone, not considering the specific people living inside, the predictions would have to be more general. One thing is for sure, this south-facing building, with a south door, has the annual “9 fire” energy at the entrance this year. This 9 energy is highly volatile.In fact, it often predicts fire accidents and explosions. (Every building has annual cycles that change from year to year, like having a guest stay with you for that whole time.) In a general sense, the occupants in this house will have a very intense year. This can also extend to the American people. By the way, the very center of every structure this year has some very aggravated energy which can contribute to arguments. Lots of otherwise happy people may find themselves more agitated and argumentative with family members or co-workers this year.

For those of you who are new to feng shui, you may have found this article surprising in its commonality to astrology. Authentic Feng Shui factors in both timing and direction of a building, just like astrology requires a birth place and time to create a chart and make predictions.
