On Procrastination
If you have come here looking for a solution to this problem, I'm afraid you won't find one here because I am not there yet myself. Procrastination is a hard thing to deal with, and you usually get it in a bundle along with frustration, guilt, depression, anxiety, stress, among others. As I write this article, I am struggling against it and ignoring the overwhelming amount of other things I should be doing right now. Unless you have experienced procrastination firsthand, it will be hard to understand the extent of the damage it can cause. Therefore I'm here to give you an idea on how it works, and how it feels.

Subconscious Beliefs/Feelings Controlling Everything
Quick Facts -Many people have beliefs and emotions in their subconscious that run the show. -Realizing which beliefs and emotions are the most problematic puts them in our conscious minds. Then we can write them down, let them play mentally play themselves out, disidentify from them, have complete control, transform them into other beliefs and feelings, and completely enjoy them for what they are!

A Strong Condemnation of Your Enemies Encourages False Allies.
I’ve noticed a consistent frustration within myself over the last couple of years revolving around authenticity. Most people when asked, will of course say that they value people being honest and authentic in their interactions with others; however, this seems to be deeply incompatible with how they act.

The Primacy of (Spoken) Language With a Unique Solution
Quick Fact -Spoken language is, ultimately, less effective than visual and emotional communication! Intro It’s very rare to come across a person who really knows what they’re talking about. It’s rare to be truly enthralled by someone’s speech, and when you are you are very much so. This is because (spoken) language is actually a very primal activity to participate in if we don’t understand what it’s meant to do.

What Is Meaning? A Look at Meaning, What It Is, and How To Find It For Yourself
Quick Facts -Meaning can be experienced as a felt, emotional experience, one that many people seek to feel every day. -You can decide what is meaningful for yourself! On the same token, you can ‘disidentify’ from the belief that anything you consider to be void of meaning is, indeed, void of meaning; this greatly helps our emotional states!

Smoke
When I lived in the Alexandria, VA, area, I knew three homeless individuals, a woman, and two men. I would see them occasionally in a shopping center just down the highway from where we lived. The shopping center had a thrift store that I liked to visit. My husband and I enjoyed thrift-store shopping, delighted in the goodies we found. I was in that thrift store one day when I noticed a wallet on the floor. I thought it had fallen off the counter and I picked it up. It was a nice wallet but upon closer inspection, I found that it belonged to someone. The wallet contained $40.00, assorted cards, and a driver's license. I left my name and phone number with the thrift store manager. I told her I was taking the wallet to the police station and the individual could pick it up there. A few hours later I received a call from a man with a heavy accent. "This would never have happened in my country!" he exclaimed. "Everything was in my wallet! This is what makes your country so great!" he continued. He told me he had recently immigrated to our country. He also told me that he would always pray for my goodness.
