Redundancy

This deals with the idea of patterns.  In this case the only way to undue old patterns is to create new ones.  Quite often the only way this is done is by repeating the new patterns over and over until the old ones no longer exist.


Chains and learning

A chain is a condition in which you have no choice but to react to.  It is an event in which you have only once way in which you can act.

 

Think of something that makes you extremely anger or upset to be around.  It isn’t the event itself that is upsetting.  The event itself didn’t take a gun to your head and say you have to act or behave in a certain way.  The event itself didn’t grab your hand and make you act in a certain way.  You made yourself act that way. 

 

This is what a chain is and does.  It is a trigger that snaps off a kind of gun deep down in all of us when we encounter something we never learned or refused to deal with.

 

All those people who go crazy and attack something which never caused them any harm are responding to chains deep with in themselves.  It isn’t the event, which is upsetting but the inability to deal or handle it with in ourselves that we are responding to.

 

A chain is something, which gives you no choice in how you respond to a person, object or event.  Any time you can stand back and define your four choices of options rationally a chain deep with in you is manipulating you. 

 

In everything in life there are four choices in which to deal with something.  That doesn’t however mean all four of the choices have consequences that you can or should deal with.  It is the ability to understand, decide and choose between those four choices that determines a persons ability to make there own paths and choices in life.

 

Programming is similar to a chain.  It however isn’t a condition in which you have no choice in which to respond.  In fact the programming is usually decided by the patterns you create or choose to create in life.  This always gives you the choice and chance to do other wise.  A person who has made wise choices usually chooses to make the same ones over.  However, he is aware that at any time if the need arises he can and will choose differently next time around.

 

Another aspect of programming is that after time the conditions and reactions become almost automatic.  That is you will be aware of the choice and path you wish to take when the time comes to choose.  You will also find choosing the path you wish easier to follow regardless of the desire to do other wise.


Creative Process

This is the process in which your mind comes up with new ideas.  There are several steps required here. 

 

The first thing required is that a chance is made available.  This means you can’t be using your mind to work.  The mind needs to be relaxed and have free space.  Creativity is a passive element.  The more control you exert generally will mean the less creative your ideas will become.

 

Second thing you must accept any and all ideas the pop out.  The average person can easily have one good idea for every ten bad ones.  The more creative people generally have a larger amount of both kinds of ideas.  Here again, forcing the bad ideas out means control and aggression.  Creativity cannot work to its best if it works at all if each bad idea that comes is forced out as being unacceptable or not any good.

 

Third thing is spontaneity.  The quicker the ideas come the better.   

 

Third thing you must do is record your ideas.  If you force your mind to remember them you are again using force and aggression styled tactics.  You may very well remember your ideas.  While your mind is focused on the remembered ideas it may be all but impossible to come up with new ones.


Awareness

This means you must be aware of all that is around you.  Quite often people all around you are in situations they must learn from.  They face events in which they can either learn from or ignore.

 

The idea here is that it is possible for you to learn from their mistakes as well.  It just takes time to understand what was done wrong and what could have been done better.

 

This also means being aware of your own mistakes.  It will take time here to understand what was done wrong and what could have been done better.
