A Better Way to Live and Work

We See the World

I like this quote because it mirrors our beliefs about the
importance of vision, attitudes and beliefs. And the Better
Way to Work program provides the structure and format to
make it happen,

We see the world not as it is, but as we are. The

reality you experience is the one you carry with you
in your mind. Therefore, the vision you use is crucial
to your destiny. 
 
All of life is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Your experience
isn’t created by outside agents, but by your attitudes
and beliefs. As a co-creator with God, imbued with
free will, you’re powerful enough to generate a world
in your mind and then step into it in your experience.

Power vs Force Revisited

Daily_showI found an interesting site by Dr. David Moyle that calibrates popular media using the Power vs Force scale. Remember that anything under 200 is taking energy from the universe and anything over 200 is adding positive energy. Here are his results :

Desperate Housewives  63                                 

NFL football  82                                             

CSI Miami    92

Daily Show   223                                          

  Whale Rider   483                                  

What  The Bleep   817

Again are all of these true, who knows. Does it make sense to me, yea. Do I still like to watch NFL football, sure. The point is only to be aware.

I’ll do a post some day on What The Bleep, but if any of this Between Seeing stuff makes sense to you you should rent the DVD.

He also points out, as does Dr. Hawkins, that the consciousness of the world is increasing and this is a good thing.

Check out the site to see some other shows he rated.               

Dr. David Hawkins Power vs. Force

Hawkins_colorDr. Hawkins is one amazing man and he is an enigma. He has authored three fantastic books and developed a scale for measuring consciousness. The books are Power vs Force, The Eye of the Eye and I: Reality and Subjectivity.  A fourth book should be available shortly. His Power vs Force book is now number 187 on the Amazon best seller list. I think this is due to his being profiled in Wayne Dyer‘s latest book The Power of Intention.

One of the people quoted about the book is Mother Teresa. She says "A beautiful gift of writing. You spread joy, love and compassion through what you write. The fruit of these is peace which you know."

His publishers site on him is here. You can also listen to him in fascinating hour long conversations on a wide range of subjects on this site.

Spiral Dynamics

Spiral_dynamicsWhat is Spiral Dynamics? The best place to start is to look at Clare Graves homepage. The best article on Spiral Dynamics is the interview of Don Beck in What is Enlightenment Magazine. They do a great job of explaining the concept and each of the memes. Ken Wilbur has brought Spiral Dynamics to the mainstream. Here is his explanation of why this matters. A really cool visual presentation of the spiral is here. In a brief search I found some great info on Spiral Dynamics at the blogs coolmel and What’s in your mind.
