The love of a dog & a penguin.
87MCTG67KJX2
Recently I listened to Robert Greene’s speech he gave at Yale University. I was fascinated by his current study of Machiavellian Intelligence. While listening, I learned that humans and primates are the only two species on earth that have this “large” brain that has evolved to cope with the complex social environments that both species have. It is also a brain that exceeds our capacity to use it.
This got me thinking because I love dogs. So a dog does not have the “large” brain that a human or primate has. Yet, you can train a dog to protect and obey you. Further, a dog can love you unconditionally. It has a laser like focus, and for the most part, it is focused on its owner. A dog’s sole function is to be with you, love you, and follow you. My beagle, Jake, will wait all day just to see me, and when he does see me, he runs, jumps, barks, licks, and wags his tail uncontrollably.
When a penguin finds its mate they stay together forever. A penguin main (parent) will sacrifice its own body for food, to continue the penguin offspring’s life if there is a short food supply. Yet this species also is without the “large” brain of humans and primates.
We live and will continue to live in complex social environments, our brains our going to evolve and adapt. These environments seem to only become more complex with each generation. This is however, how evolution works, it will happen no matter what.
But what if, the best way for us to evolve is to investigate and learn from a species that doesn’t have this “large” brain, because they seem to know how to love someone pretty damn well. Isn’t love the most powerful emotion in existence?

TIME INFILTRATION

Go homeless
Hey Stellar fans,
In light of the latest Charlie Sheen drama, I offer this suggestion. Go homeless. Some may recognize that subconciously we tend to drag ourselves down. Nobody stands in the way of your dreams as big as yourself.
Mr. Sheen only had to keep quiet regarding the custody agreement. What did he do? Tweeted about it, smart guy. He placed his needs of belonging ahead of safety. According to Maslow, that is ass backwards (my verbal twist of course).
Maslow's theory suggested that human beings are motivated by unfullfilled needs (condensed). In the following order: physiological, safety, love/belonging, esteem, and self-actualization.
Do you constantly sabatoge yourself? Start taking away needs you already have met, you will have an immediate shift in motivation. It could be your turning point!
**I accept no responsibility for the actions of my readers, unless these actions lead to unimaginable success, fame, and fortune. Life is choices, start authoring your own.

What's Next?
Do you know what is next for you? If not, why not? Since having goals is constantly littered inside most self-help literature, I should cover it too. There is a lot about goals you can learn by reading up on the subject, and I would advise that you do.
So I will assume most of you have participated in New Years Resolutions, right? Good, that is somewhat of a start. I have learned that a lot of those resolutions consist of "give up" goals.
Examples:
"I'm gonna lose XX pounds"
"I'm gonna pay off XXX debt"
blah, blah, blah, blah
There is a part of your brain that brings to your awareness things that you consistently think about. Have you ever bought a car, or wanted a particular type of car? And then, began noticing that car everywhere you went? Those cars did not just appear. They were always there. However, in the past, your brain filtered that information out of your conscious awareness because it didn't think it was important for you to know about it. Once you put that thought in your brain though, the filtering process changed and began showing you how that car is in abundance.
So what does this have to do with the goals? Well, look at them again. POUNDS, DEBT, ECT.
1. Think about what you do want, not what you don't want. Your brain took the subject and started working on it. So you thought 4 door Chevy Cavalier, now you are seeing a bunch of cavaliers. Your start talking about debt, even though you want to get rid of it, you're still talking about debt. That is what your brain will start working on, showing you more debt.
2. Infiltrate your life with it. Thinking about it is not enough. Make a poster board of pictures that represent already having achieved the goal. Get them off the Internet or find a magazine. If you want to lose weight, you are not going to cut out pictures of fat people. Put this poster board somewhere visible to you throughout the day. Make numerous copies. Have one on the bathroom mirror, at work, in the living room, kitchen, ect. Put it as a banner on your phone! Cover the interior of your car with it. There is no extreme here, any passenger in your car should LITERALLY be questioning your sanity. (find out what happened to Guglielmo Marconi)
3. Reverse Engineer It. Start from the point of having it totally achieved and start working backwards. If I would have achieved (insert goal here), what would have happened right before? So on and so on. Keep working backwards until you arrive at where you are today (you now know what is next).
TIP: Your brain is very intelligent (actually beyond your capacity). Use this last process in helping you reach your goals:
1. Pick someone that already has, is, represents what your goal is (dead or alive, does not matter).
2. Ask them, imagine asking them, or read about them!
You will get the answers.
One final note. Making a plan, poster boards, and all that jazz will not carry you to your goals. YOU HAVE TO GET UP GET OUT AND GO GET SOMETHING! YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING EVERY SINGLE DAY, NO MATTER HOW SMALL, THAT LEADS YOU TOWARDS YOUR GOAL.
Now go do something about it.

Keep Your Cool
Below is my actual reply to someone that had aroused my negative emotions today:
XXXXX,
I know this is getting to be a bit much. I just want to apologize. This is not the life I want to lead. I'm sorry if I ever slighted you, believe me it was not intentional. I harbor no ill feelings toward you and if you hate me, then that is your choice.
