THE TRUTH ABOUT SECURITY

Security_large

Security: n. absence of danger and/or lawbreakers

Most want security from criminals but there is also financial security which comes from being employed or having savings and investments in a relatively secure location.

Security from ill health or disease is also desired and some try to eat organic and exercise to optimize their health.

Insurance which covers natural disasters, business failures, theft, illnesses, fires and accidents is also taken out by humans wanting to feel secure in almost everything which they do.

Finally social security and Medicare is a form of financial and health security in old age.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SMARTNESS

56ab13295c4d9c5dbaa19c314439ae4f

Smartness: n. a human having complete logical reasoning skills and successfully applying them to solve political and social and economic and scientific problems and/or having emotional intelligence

Many humans confuse intelligence with being smart. Although intelligent humans are frequently also smart there are plenty of intelligent humans doing stupid things which are not so smart to do.

Intelligence is really having a very good memory for facts and information which may not necessarily be used in a smart way. Being smart is having the reasoning or logical ability to find practical solutions to problems and an added bonus is having emotional intelligence which helps you to successfully deal with human emotional states.

There are many smart humans with relatively little book learning who have had extensive contact with humans and have learned important information on their own or with personal experience. It can help in many instances to have good grades and a college degree but there are plenty of very smart humans who have become very successful without the formal education. Very smart humans are frequently bored by formal education and learn most of what they have to know on their own.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SORROW

sweep-away-my-sorrow-quotes

Sorrow: n. sadness with possible loneliness which is frequently caused by a loss or death of something of importance in one’s life such as a close relative(s)

Sorrow is a subset of grief and is not as intense an emotion as grief. Initial grief frequently becomes sorrow with the passage of time.

Sorrow is frequently sadness with a feeling of loneliness or loss because it is frequently a human or pet who had been very close to you in your life.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SUSPICION

239 - baby big-eyes suspicion

Suspicion: n. judging intuitively that a subset(s) with little evidence or no proof is the probable cause of an event(s) in the past or the future

Sometimes we may have no proof or just a suspicion that someone is lying to us or stealing from us or an organization. If we investigate thoroughly we may find evidence that our suspicions were accurate.

Sometimes our impulsive feelings are accurate without proof because we have become very skilled at determining small changes in speech or mannerisms which are indicators of lying or deception.

After working for many years in the personnel department or having much experience hiring employees we may sometimes go with our gut or intuitive feelings about a human and not just the details found on a resume.

Sizing up a human based on speech patterns and body language is an acquired skill which few have in abundance because it demands exposure to a wide variety of human personality types over many years. The intuitive feelings of older adults are frequently more accurate than the intuitive feelings of young adults. The intuitive feelings of spouses and close friends about each other are frequently more accurate than intuitive feelings about casual friends.

Blaming or criticizing a human based on a suspicion is a dangerous thing to do overtly because without proof you are merely guessing. In many cases your guesses may be totally wrong and you may wind up offending a human unjustly for something they did not do.

There are also rare paranoid humans who intuitively feel or suspect that almost everyone is lying to them or deceiving them and maybe even stealing from them.

THE TRUTH ABOUT WILDERNESS

Amazon-rain-forest

Wilderness: n. nature real estate minimally changed by humans

Wilderness is a vital safety net of biodiversity for future humanity when domesticated plants and animals will no longer be healthy food for consumption due to irresponsible interference by technology which emphasizes short duration profit, the use of too many artificial chemicals, and monoculture to grow domesticated plants and animals.

Not only that but emphasis on the growing of very few species in great numbers runs the risk of long duration famine when those few species become devastated by pests and disease and can no longer be grown safely and economically for human consumption.

We will need healthy biodiverse animals and plants from the wilderness to make our food supply healthy again so it doesn’t devastate the health of humans as it is already doing in ever increasing numbers. Overly processed food which is not organic is also a large contributing factor to bad food but once you destroy the foundation of healthy organic plants and animals there are no quick fixes possible any more to reverse the unhealthy trends and unhealthy food supply whose DNA is irreversibly damaged.

A smart human generation should promote certified organic farming and protect and even expand wilderness real estate for the long duration survival of humanity on the face of this endangered precious planet earth.

Untested  GMO’s are the biggest threat to healthy plant and animal DNA because they select plants and animals based on so few criteria such as size, fat content, rate of growth, crop yields, and herbicide and generalized pest resistance when there are hundreds of traits which should be selected for to make a truly healthy food for human consumption. Myopic short duration selection is devastating the health of the current food supply and we will all suffer from the irresponsible behavior in the long duration.

Bees are already dying in huge numbers all proving that current growing methods and altered DNA is injurious to animal health and it is also unquestioningly dangerously affecting human health in the long duration.

THE TRUTH ABOUT LANDSCAPES

1524976_476083369179384_1575121786_n

Landscapes range in degrees from the truly great or awesome to the mediocre or not very interesting. They cover a large distance to a focused close up view of one or more objects.

Sky, land, and water are the elements which are seen. What captivates our attention is the size, shape, and color contrast of the objects in the picture. The larger the size, the more unusual the shape, and the more varied the color the more the landscape captures our attention and looks interesting or even awesome.

Great landscapes usually cover great distances, have sky, land, and water in them and are very colorful as well as in total focus without any blurring effects.

Mountains, cliffs, waterfalls, lakes, rivers, and the ocean by themselves or in tandem can all make for spectacular views and animals, plants, and trees are what can add interest to a landscape and make it truly outstanding.

Aerial views or views from the sky can be pretty spectacular and cover larger distances than a ground camera can.

I prefer spectacular landscapes with waterfalls, many mountains, and very colorful contrasts or truly rare sights in this world because I have not been overexposed to those views and still find them awesome and inspiring.

If you want to become a renowned landscape photographer or videographer then you will unfortunately have to afford to go to all the spectacular places on this planet earth to do so.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE UNIVERSE

Observing space through a telescope

Our attempted explanations of the universe don’t make any logical sense and we must admit honestly that our minds and science are just not smart enough to explain it.

Theoretically a galaxy is a black or grey hole which spews out stars and the universe is a black or grey hole which spews out galaxies. What does a black or grey hole with infinite mass and energy really spew out? Is it stars or galaxies which are clusters of stars that are spewed out? No one really knows and it is a logical dilemma without an answer.

If we accept the illogical fact that there are black or grey holes then they can’t spew out stars in one instance and galaxies in another instance. Our preoccupation with life and death answers can’t answer the fundamental question as to whether there is life and death for galaxies or life and death for the universe. I personally believe that there is no life and death for the universe and that it always has been around and it will always be around on into the foreseeable future.

The big bang is an illogical myth as are the theories about multiple universes or bubble universes. Bubble universes are also modern myths which don’t make any logical sense. A universe is infinite or never ends and bubble universes have a limit which theoretically is infinity. However infinity really can’t be a limit because infinity by definition is without limits.

Modern theoretical physics is unprovable mythological bullshit which doesn’t explain anything logically and never will because our brains and the relatively poor mathematical tool which we use is not adequate to give us true answers to the origin of the universe because truthfully there may have been no origin to the universe or an actual beginning.

The logical question to ask is what happened or went on before the beginning of the universe? Frankly no one knows or ever will!!!!!! The universe is a big mystery which even science can’t or ever will explain adequately.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPECULATION

1speculation

Speculation: n. doing an investment which is frequently a very risky action(s) for short or long duration profit with a subset(s) which is frequently money

Speculation in its broadest sense can be thought of as taking a risk by investing in something which may increase or decrease in value with time.

Frequently speculative investments are very risky and considered to be rather unwise investments because you can lose all or most of the value in a rather short duration.

CAPSOCIALISM: THE JUST WORLDWIDE SOCIETY

Quotation-Deepak-Chopra-society-generations-Meetville-Quotes-209074

Sharing emotions about past events is called empathy but most of us think of sharing as the sharing of a possession or an experience with someone. 

Learning to share does not come naturally to offspring who are very possessive and don’t usually want to share their toys.

Philosophically communism is sharing property which no one legally owns and it has been an abysmal failure because something which one doesn’t own is usually something which one does not take care of very well.

Owning of property by two humans gives rise to an ethical question. If one breaks the property then who pays for fixing it or is responsible for fixing it? Is it both parties that have the responsibility to fix it or is the one responsible for breaking it the one who pays to fix it?

Communism says it is both parties that bear the responsibility for fixing it and that is why injustice is felt by individuals who basically have to pay for another’s mistakes which includes reproductive mistakes or mishandling of the property which should include your genetic offspring.

Mutual ownership is practiced by some rare communal groups and cooperatives but they are frequently not very stable organizations because someone always feels that one is getting most of the benefit out of communal property and the other is left shorthanded. That is why the right to private property and private offspring is such an important right since it assigns responsibility of the property to the owner of the property who then is responsible for taking care of it. If the owner of the property including offspring does not take care of it then they should be penalized for mishandling the property.

Taxation is sharing your wealth with the government bureaucracy and the general welfare. This is why humans think it is unjust if the government is doing an inefficient bureaucratic job and giving their money to special interests which do not benefit the general welfare. Citizens are only willing to share their wealth voluntarily if they feel that the government is doing a just distribution of their wealth for the whole nation.

If given the choice of being taxed or not taxed most citizens would voluntarily opt out because the present state of government is so unjust and most, except for the wealthy and those on welfare, feel that they are contributing more than their just share to the operation of government.

The higher the taxation the more communistic or socialistic a nation becomes and the less efficient and unjust it becomes in sharing your wealth with others.

Socialism is delegating personal responsibility to the government where government increasingly becomes a parental figure taking care of all of your life’s needs. If you become sick, it is paid for by others, if you have offspring they are subsidized or partially paid for by others, if you become unemployed you get generous financial support from others until you get another job.

That many citizens begin to work the system or milk it for maximum personal benefit is the result of socialism and this parasitic nature causes the costs for the nation to increase without any motivation to decrease the generous support in the long duration. 

You get rewarded generously for being sick, for being a mother with children, and for being unemployed. The result in the long duration is more sick humans, more unwed mothers with children on the dole, and many on never ending unemployment benefits. The incentive to work greatly decreases and the long duration result is a bankrupt social system where almost everyone prefers to be on government welfare benefits. The ultimate result of progressive socialism is a government ruling bureaucracy with everyone dependent on it or in reality communism which is a colossal historical failure.

How do you put the incentive to live financially responsibly back into socialism which so desperately needs it?

Create two classes of citizens. One class the destitute and unemployed who are totally dependent on the government and the other a working class which is totally responsible for its own medical care, unemployment costs, and child support. If you bankrupt yourself with medical costs, unemployment costs, or child costs then you become a member of the destitute and unemployed class totally dependent on the government with a low standard of living and little free choice.

If you are totally dependent on the government then your voting rights will be less or a fraction of the voting rights of working citizens. You will lose your right to a motorized vehicle and be dependent on government door to door delivery of basic standardized needs such as food, drink, clothing, sanitary needs, cell phone, and computer and you will live mostly in high rise apartment dwellings with or without offspring.

If you are single then you will be sharing that apartment with other welfare recipients sleeping in bunk beds more than one to a room. In effect it should be a prison like system without locks so you have the incentive to go on the internet and get reeducated in a useful job which will result in mobility freedom and the luxury of purchasing what you want and when you want it. Yes, there will once again be an incentive to get back into the work force and enjoy basic luxuries such as food and drink which you like and a dwelling in a location of your personal choice.

Yes, incentive can be put back into a socialist system but you will need two classes of citizens with different political voting power so that those on welfare do not enslave the working class of citizens. What is this new updated form of socialism called? I don’t have a name for it but it can be called Capsocialism or a mix of responsible capitalism with the social need for a safety net for the destitute and also unemployed!!!!!!

EVERY HUMAN IS NOT EQUAL ALL THE TIME and if you are destitute and unemployed then you are not equal to the working citizens of a nation. One person one vote because everyone is equal all the time? No they are not! If everyone has equal voting power throughout their lifetime then communism is the long duration unjust result. Yes, as soon as you are employed you get back your full voting rights!!!!!! The concept of human equality in its present form is outdated and needs radical revision!!!!!!

Financially independent responsible healthy citizens and families are the necessary backbone of a just society and that means that you should be rewarded for being healthy, having a job, and responsibly taking care of your offspring. If you aren’t healthy, don’t have a job, and can’t take care of your offspring financially then you should be punished with a lower standard of living than the employed financially responsible humans.

This kind of a just society promotes the reproduction of healthy, educated, good parents who feel a caring responsibility for their offspring. Once again responsible citizens will be justly rewarded and financially irresponsible uneducated citizens without a job will be punished justly for their irresponsibility. There will be an incentive to remain healthy, to be educated with a job, and to have offspring only if you can afford them financially.

Society will once again have just purpose and those financially responsible will reproduce in greater numbers than the financially irresponsible ones. Today the financially irresponsible members of society are being rewarded disproportionately and that is why all the responsible working citizens in the society sense profound injustice and there is family breakdown with the offspring suffering the most and handicapping the next generation.

A financially irresponsible society gets more unjust from generation to generation and a financially responsible society gets more just from generation to generation. You can control society with money in a just way or you can control society with money in an unjust way and I think that controlling society with money in a just way is preferable.

The financially poor are always at a disadvantage in any society because their education is relatively bad and useless and a cohesive family structure is not encouraged financially resulting in irresponsible behavior and a high crime rate. A lower standard of living WITHOUT MONEY to spend on drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, gambling, and unwise luxuries is necessary coupled with an incentive to get reeducated or educated in a useful job is vital.

Ultimately useful interactive audio visual education in the home for both parents and offspring should be the goal in an upwardly mobile society where a secure living environment exists for parents and offspring and a desire to get off of a standardized MONEY FREE living environment which has no special mobility and no freedom of choice to buy what you want and when your want.

Humans on welfare WITH MONEY TO FREELY SPEND make largely bad choices in food, drink, clothing, lifestyle, and education and they must be motivated to get usefully educated so that they can successfully join the financially responsible working class. Humans and offspring living in a drug free crime free environment with financial minimum security can be motivated to join the financially responsible working class through personal time, effort, and achievement educationally which is the foundation of a healthy responsible living lifestyle.

Everyone will not put in the necessary time, effort, and achievement to become employable so they will be destined to live a totally dependent welfare lifestyle for the rest of their lives. They will not be profligate money spending irresponsible spending units and will not cost the working taxpayers that much money and they will be living efficiently with minimum cost to the nation.

If they reproduce irresponsibly then they will not get more money from the government for additional offspring but will be punished by having to live with many adult offspring in a congested lifestyle for the rest of their lives if the offspring do not get properly educated and join the independent lifestyle of the working class.

Do you want to have badly educated adult offspring living with you for the rest of your life or are you going to make sure that they study hard and become employable members of society and go out and make it on their own leaving you to live in relative comfort in your old age?  

Just population control will exist in society and the financially poor will be incentivized to work hard at educating themselves so that they can become financially contributing members of society and not the other way around which is becoming lifelong parasites on the society and contributing nothing towards the general welfare of society.

Capsocialism will ultimately make political parties obsolete because the only financial issue will be how much money will go towards the support of the destitute and also unemployed. The other primary role of government will be to ensure the survival of biodiversity, wilderness, and a minimally polluted environment so that future generations can live healthy productive lives.

Do we really need pseudo political parties which unjustly benefit their special interests which is the very rich and those on welfare? Political parties are an unjust anachronism which change corrupt leadership and solve no social problems in the long duration.

China and Russia can also institute Capsocialism with only one party in control and create a just society without the need for giving voting rights to the public. Smart political leadership which solves social problems is what is needed and not stupid leadership which rewards profligate spending and irresponsible reproduction in society.

Capsocialism means that there will no longer be a need for government funded social workers who solve no social problems but make them worse. There will be less need for psychiatrists, doctors, and jails because the poor will be free of drug use and dysfunctional financially irresponsible lifestyles. They will not be involved in accident prone dangerous lifestyles and will be eating healthy standardized food which will result in minimal medical expense funded by the government.

The truly poor will have no free money to irresponsibly spend on social vices and society will improve from generation to generation and not become more dysfunctional from generation to generation.

The concept of true social freedom will have to change to one of true freedom only if you are financially responsible with money. If you are financially responsible with money then you are a true adult and can spend it almost any way that you choose provided that it does not endanger the lives of your fellow working citizens.

If you are not financially responsible then you are not an adult yet and will have to continue your education until you qualify for adult working responsibility. Adults on welfare are realistically only dependent children dependent on the taxpayer’s money and their lifestyles must be controlled or supervised as are the lifestyles of children.

How do you transition to a Capsocialism society? My evergreen truth books CHANGES IN WELFARE LAWS, EDUCATION REFORM, JUSTICE, and NEW CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES outline in somewhat great detail how this can be done. Join me in trying to make this world a more just society by promoting the principles of Capsocialism.

THE TRUTH ABOUT TALENT

logo-TalentSearch7

Talent: n. much natural ability whose dominant cause is hereditary

Talent or hereditary ability generally can be classified as an exceptional memory which is frequently verbal or mathematical or both and/or physical ability which is demonstrated by great strength and/or very good coordination.

Relatively few humans are multitalented both mentally and physically but if there should be a standard of human excellence then it should be one who is both mentally and physically multitalented.

Hard work can sometimes make up for an absence of talent but talent combined with hard work is an unbeatable combination which many celebrities and charismatic leaders have.

Far too many without much talent think that with enough hard work they can achieve almost any lofty goal. Unfortunately quite a few of them wind up being premature burnouts or serial failures from trying to do the impossible and fame and fortune eludes them.

You can be an idiot savant with a special talent in one area of expertise only but the truly talented have the ability to creatively manipulate all the information which they have learned and create new concepts and/or new useful rearrangements with it.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SHARING***

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Share: v. to contribute for mutual benefit such as alternating possession of a subset(s) and/or using a subset(s) at the same time by two or more lifeforms

THE TRUTH ABOUT TEAMWORK

Teamwork

Teamwork: n. interacting with more than one human trying to achieve the same goal(s).

The ideal team is competent individuals who know their skill set and can function relatively independently towards a common goal(s).

In the real world there are team members who need some assistance in the form of information and/or guidance to do the work successfully and this frequently requires input from the team leader and other members of the team. Feedback during the common goal(s) achievement is very important so that the work proceeds in an orderly timely way.

Sharing information and knowledge amongst team members is frequently also necessary so the interaction of the team is seldom a one on one interaction.

What may surface during teamwork is that an additional team member may be necessary or a current team member needs to be replaced with a better one.

In sports teamwork physical ability takes precedence with overall strategic advice incorporated into the game and knowing how to adjust to opposing team tactics. Sports teamwork is much more impulsive than corporate teamwork and doesn’t last that long unless you incorporate the time spent planning before a game too.

Keeping a team emotionally motivated despite inevitable failures along the way is very important and the team leader must have emotional IQ as well as a pretty good knowledge of what has to be done to complete a goal(s) successfully. It also helps if the team members are emotionally mature and not interested in goofing off, getting others to do their work, and backstabbing coworkers.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELFMOTIVATION***

unnamed

Selfmotivation: n. motivated by one’s desire(s) and/or need(s) and/or belief(s) and/or past experiences which activate and/or prevent one’s behavior(s)

Many of us wrongly assume that all motivation is external from other humans and events which happen in our lives. The truth is that there is a complex interaction between external motivators and internal motivators which result in the behavior which we do.

The internal motivators are what is called selfmotivation and it is the desires, needs, beliefs, past experiences, and reactions to external factors which we personally possess. The internal motivation can either stimulate us to enthusiastically pursue a goal(s) or to cautiously pursue that goal(s) or to not pursue that goal(s) all mediated by what we personally largely impulsively think in our minds.

Before we do something everything in effect passes through our personal filter of desires, needs, beliefs, and past experiences which largely determines how we react to external stimuli.

If the world does not motivate you to become a better human then don’t entirely blame the world but put most of the blame on yourself and your absence of proper selfmotivation. Ultimately you have to motivate yourself to do important things in your life and that means taking time out to think about your progress throughout life and readjusting your goals accordingly.

You must push yourself or selfmotivate yourself to do important things in your life. Try to make good judgments along the way and do the right things and not the wrong things with your life.

If you are unhappy with your lifestyle then learn new useful skills and knowledge, make some new goals, associate with better humans, exclude or reduce the bad habits in your life, and push yourself with one or more small steps which will hopefully lead to a happier future. Motivate yourself to do something better with your life and chances are that it will be much happier in the long duration.

The enemy of proper selfmotivation is the deluge of external propaganda which brainwashes you with lies, deceptions, and bad advice into leading the wrong kind of life impulsively so you are not entirely to blame if your life seems purposeless, unsatisfying, and unrewarding.

If you want to seriously exclude lies, deceptions, and bad advice from your life then you can start by reading some of my evergreen truth blogs which are the antidote to untrue political, economic, social, and even scientific propaganda which has brainwashed you and most of the world.

The truth is not always pleasant to know and frequently selfdeceptions or comforting lies are more soothing to live with. It is lies which we have lived with during our entire life to date and it is subjective lies which we believe to be the truth. Changing our long held objectively untrue beliefs is very hard to do without overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

Another reason that we don’t change our untrue beliefs is that there is frequently some truth in them and they are not total untruths. There is such a thing as being partially true and partially untrue and it is the partial truth which we frequently hold on for dear life. Most of us believe that something is either totally true or totally untrue without shades of grey or uncertainty.

You can thank our archaic language for this unfortunate irrational logic that everything must be either black or white, yes or no, true or untrue, antonym or synonym, and always or never. We are all guilty of falling into the logical trap that one or a few examples is evidence enough that what we believe is always true. The truth is that many more examples can show that what you believe is only true in certain circumstances or at certain times. Most humans don’t have an analytical mentality which thinks in terms of sometimes true and sometimes untrue.

Moral truth should not be relativistic most of the time but many of our opinions and beliefs about human nature and reality are relativistic and not true all the time or not true in all circumstances. Many of our beliefs are frequently, sometimes, or infrequently true and not true all the time or under all circumstances.

Most of us are committed to our physical survival as well as the survival of our strong beliefs even though the lifelong beliefs are sometimes very wrong and untrue either totally or partially.

Continue to live with your old desires, needs,  beliefs, and untruths OR reeducate yourself and start to realistically think about and make new adjustments to your desires, needs, and beliefs and view the world and your place in it slightly or radically differently. The choice is up to you!!!!!!

THE HIDDEN MEANING OR TRUTH IN MOTIVATION***

motivation

Motivation is frequently thought of as getting someone to do something or achieve a goal(s) and what is not realized is that doing something right frequently means not doing something which will prevent us from achieving the goal(s).

 

Proper motivation is sometimes accompanied by a warning that you should not do something along the way which will interfere with your goal(s) achievement.

 

Motivation does not have a true antonym such as blocking or preventing a behavior but the blocking or preventing is an integral part of the motivation process where only some things are prevented or blocked so that the motivation can proceed successfully to its conclusion or goal(s).

 

Proper motivation is not just emotionally stimulating a desire to win or succeed with promises of rewards, commands, encouragements, and even instilling some fear with threats of punishment if the goal(s) is not achieved. To properly motivate you must have taught how to achieve by warning of the possible mistakes which should not be made along the way.

 

“Cross the street by yourself but look both ways before you do” is the proper way to motivate offspring to cross the street but in safety with an appropriate warning.

 

“Get the job done in a week but remember to get enough sleep so that you can function efficiently every day” is an example of properly motivating an employee  who historically has frequently shown up tired for work.

 

The hidden truth is that to motivate properly you must also frequently have a good knowledge or understanding of the weaknesses of the one whom you want to motivate. Warning of the weaknesses or suggesting real ways to minimize those weaknesses is an important part of the motivational process or motivation!!!!!!

 

The other hidden truth not found in the definition of motivation is that selfmotivation is what you need the most in life to achieve success. If you mostly depend on others to motivate you then you may sometimes be waiting forever to get off your butt and do something truly useful with your life.

Motivation: n. stimulating and/or preventing a behavior(s) with a subset(s) which is frequently done with (the promise of a reward and/or punishment) and/or (a command and/or an encouragement(s)) and/or (a threat and/or a warning)

Selfmotivation: n. motivated by one’s desire(s) and/or need(s) and/or belief(s) and/or past experiences which activate and/or prevent one’s behavior(s)

THE TRUTH ABOUT TEMPTATION

temptation

Temptation: n. enticement into wrongdoing

Circumstances or humans can create a desire to overrule your good conscience and do something which you ordinarily consider to be bad, wrong, or immoral.

We may be tempted to eat bad food, have sex with the wrong human, lie, deceive, be adulterous, and even steal something which doesn’t belong to us under certain circumstances sometimes encouraged by other humans without our scruples.

We desire many things in life and the smart adult human does not get tempted by bad things and bad humans and knows the difference between good and bad.

THE TRUTH ABOUT TERRORISM

ReadyTerrorism

Terrorism:  n. willfully stealing personal and/or political peace with much violence and/or threats of violence and/or cyber attacks

There is strategic terrorism at one extreme and random non-strategic terrorism at the other extreme.

Strategic terrorism can be combated to some extent by hardening security measures at strategic locations but it is impossible to rationally plan against random acts of terror such as serial killings by a deranged gunman or  explosions at random locations.

Strategic terrorism can cause the most damage but random terrorism can create even more fear and chaos in the general public who are the primary victims.

Strategic terrorism is organized terrorism frequently conducted by more than one individual. A group or gang is easier to locate and apprehend than individual terrorists who independently chose a target for their random terrorist acts.

A nuclear bomb destroying a communications hub or exploding in space and causing catastrophic communications breakdowns is scary enough but cyber terrorism can potentially take out power grids, steal and/or destroy corporate data, and severely affect military security with hair raising results.

With increasing dependence on electrical power and the internet, western society is very vulnerable to terrorism and the only defense possible is unrelenting national and international spying or espionage on radical groups and nations who can potentially protect terrorist cells.

Traditional cyber security will have to be continuously updated at great cost to counter new potential personal, organization, and national security threats.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THRIFT

Thrift Logo Final_full

Thrift: n. being efficient and utilitarian with money

If you are an impulsive shopper who buys what you want and not what you need, if you have no money saved for emergencies or retirement, and if you don’t budget your money then you are not being thrifty.

Society no longer encourages thrift by not paying decent interest on savings accounts and no longer having safe investments for the long duration with the exception of real estate. It no longer pays to be thrifty with your money. The result is personal bankruptcies and nations teetering on the verge of bankruptcy not being able to balance their budgets.

China, Japan, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland are still examples of relatively thrifty nations but profligacy with money is also threatening them in the long duration.

Nature is thrifty with energy and has fat reserves for emergencies. It is time for humans, organizations, and nations also to become more thrifty with money or the symbol for energy. Live within your means or suffer inevitable personal, organizational, or national financial collapse.

THE TRUTH ABOUT TOLERANCE

tolerance3

Tolerance: n. having the ability to let a belief(s) and/or a moral behavior(s) to exist without attacking it and/or arguing against it immediately

If you have strong personal beliefs and opinions but do not attack or argue immediately against opposing views unless absolutely necessary then you are a tolerant individual.

You can promote your strong beliefs and opinions with humans who share them but that does not mean that you have to challenge different beliefs and opinions at every turn. If you try to avoid confrontations and arguing about politics, religion, and sports then you are a smart tolerant individual.

Being tolerant of criminal and immoral behavior such as lying, stealing, and adultery promotes chaos in society and you can be considered to be an anarchist trying to destroy society if you do so.

THE TRUTH ABOUT NICE

Niceness: n. good and/or right behavior(s) towards a human(s) and/or an animal and this behavior(s) is frequently done politely and/or respectfully and/or caringly and/or kindly and/or friendly and/or courteously and/or modestly and/or with just praise

We frequently like nice humans. Those are the ones that are polite, respectful, caring, kind, friendly, courteous, give appropriate compliments, and generally make us feel good in their presence.

Being nice is a social skill and if you need many friends or acquaintances in your life then you should learn how to be nice to humans whom you want to impress in a good way.

You don’t have to be nice all the time, especially if you are in a leadership position which may require firing and criticizing where appropriate, but as the old saying goes-you can attract more humans with honey rather than vinegar, so being nice is the honey which you should be using most of the time.

One very overlooked area which should be treated nicely is wilderness plants and animals. Be nice to them and don’t steal their real estate!

THE TRUTH ABOUT UTILITARIANISM

utilitarianism-1275515948-phpapp01-thumbnail-4

Utilitarianism: n. making efficiently useful with beauty and/or large size being relatively unimportant

If you are promoting the efficient use of money and efficient human behavior with minimal emphasis on beauty and large size then you are a utilitarian.

Aerodynamic vehicle shapes are utilitarian and are objectively beautiful and efficient as are passive homes which utilize the least amount of energy to obtain creature comforts.

Subjective beauty in fashion and clothes and large size as a symbol for strength or power is misguided value judgments which are not utilitarian and lead to inefficiency and profligate use of natural resources with the corresponding pollution.

We also desperately need a utilitarian efficient worldwide morality which includes biodiversity and efficiency as part of the moral code which I have stated more than once in many of my blogs.

Utilitarian morality coupled with utilitarian efficient use of money or energy is what the world needs to escape its inevitable plunge into inefficient human self-destruction. Self-destruction is caused by inefficient human behavior which nature abhors and will punish us for our immorality in the long duration.

THE TRUTH ABOUT REMORSE

remorse

Remorse: n. sensing guilt and badness after having done a bad and/or wrong subset(s) which is frequently an immoral behavior(s) and/or offense(s) and wishing the behavior had never existed

Most of us have a moral sense of what is right and wrong and feel bad, guilty, or have remorse if we lie, steal, or commit adultery.

There are psychopaths and humans who do not have much of a moral conscience and do not feel remorse after lying or an act of adultery. Some even don’t feel remorse after stealing and getting away with it.

Remorse is something moral humans feel and it frequently prevents them from doing an immoral act again if they make a mistake and do something bad or immoral. Remorseful humans feel guilty and try not to repeat bad or immoral mistakes the next time around.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INDECISION

download (1)

Indecision: n. not being able to make an opinion and/or judgment after some thought and/or inquiry

Many of us have thought and researched a problem and still feel indecisive because we either don’t know what to do or have so many options that we have trouble choosing what should be the right one first.

We consult other humans with similar situations in life and sometimes find their decisive solutions to be acceptable in our situation also.

When in doubt or faced with indecision then try to find someone who has been through the same problem and has successfully resolved it. It can be your spouse, a close personal friend, or a licensed professional. Further research on the internet from humans who have had your problem and found solutions to it are also an excellent source to end your indecisiveness.

Finally, if you are faced with indecision it is just a question of more time needed to research a solution to your indecision and you may even conclude that the best decision is to make no decision at all!!!!!!

THE TRUTH ABOUT INCONSIDERATION

Inconsideration: n. not thinking about the goals which others are trying to achieve and causing human stress which easily begins when those opposing and/or different goals are not acknowledged and/or processed with human etiquette

We have all had experiences with inconsiderate humans.

Most have bad human etiquette and are rude, impulsive, selfish, argumentative, not willing to listen, overly demanding, overly talkative, or messy in public.

An inconsiderate human frequently does not realize that you have needs and wants too and want to be treated with respect and empathy.

It is best to try and avoid inconsiderate humans and if you can’t avoid them then try to ignore them and ostracize them from your life as much as possible.

If it is an inconsiderate boss whom you are struggling with then plan to change jobs in the not too distant future or develop a calloused attitude which will protect you to some extent from the extended mental abuse on the job.

CAUTION: MISLEADING FOOD LABELS WITH HEALTH BUZZWORDS!!!

food-label-claims-cover-dark-bkg

Beware of foods labeled with seemingly healthy buzzwords such as antioxidant, immune support, heart healthy, natural, gluten free, organic, whole grain, sugar free, low fat, etc. all of which are designed to sell you frequently basically unhealthy lopsided processed food which is not certified organic or pure highly nutritious food without undesirable chemicals included.

Educating yourself on what ingredients are healthy and which are not takes more skill than just reading buzzwords and making impulsive decisions based on only one or two words which sound healthy but are really deceptions.

If you feel helpless and don’t know what to do at least read the ingredients listed and Google them to find out if they naturally exist in the food or are unnecessary artificial and potentially unhealthy additives.

Here is a link which only covers a handful of these misleading health word labels.

THE TRUTH ABOUT TRADITION

tradition

Tradition: n. existing customs and/or beliefs which are frequently transferred from generation to generation

Western media is waging war on tradition.

Thrift and financial responsibility is being discouraged,

family values are being assaulted with glorified promiscuity causing family breakdown,

healthy biodiverse organic food is being destroyed with too much use of artificial chemicals, GMO’s, factory farming, and monoculture agriculture,

basic morality against lying, stealing, and adultery is not being taught,

and outdated liberal arts education is not preparing humans to work in the technological 21st century.

Traditional cultural, moral, and family values is what made Japan, South Korea, China, the United States, and Germany prosper but it is all being threatened by an emphasis on big money power with no moral backbone which is corrupting the world and destroying cohesive social structures and principles with it.

Social cohesion is threatened with a breakdown of tradition and the solution is to replace it with an updated binding secular moral code taught worldwide to young impressionable minds in elementary school.

Except in emergency situations-don’t destroy biodiversity, don’t lie, don’t be inefficient, don’t steal, don’t commit adultery if married, and don’t murder.

A common secular morality will bind the citizens of the world into cohesive small and big social units which will be able to interact relatively peacefully with each other. What the world truly needs is an updated secular morality which can then be realistically applied to most of the laws and decisions made in society.

For example, don’t fraudulently steal the health of citizens with unhealthy food and deceptive lying practices which don’t label all the chemicals and ingredients in food. If there are GMO’s or artificial chemicals in foods then label them truthfully and don’t try to deceive the public into thinking they are consuming healthy food. Don’t fraudulently steal health and don’t try to lie about the ingredients in food by deceptive labeling!!!!!!

Believe it or not -the key to destroying corruption begins with a common secular moral belief put into practice at every level of society.

THE TRUTH ABOUT MERCY

Kanye-West-Mercy

Mercy: n. being (tolerant and/or compassionate) and/or forgiving when punishment is earned and frequently towards a minor’s misbehavior(s)

When offspring deserve punishment being merciful sometimes means no punishment at all or punishing less severely than expected or justified. It is smart to ask offspring to promise not to do the misdeed again before showing mercy and not punishing.

Fining someone less than the specified maximum fine can also be considered to be a merciful act and some even feel that mercy is punishing a criminal less than what the maximum punishment should be.

In the catholic religion confessing your wrongdoing frequently results in merciful forgiveness of your transgressions and you are not punished for them.

THE TRUTH ABOUT LISTENING

images

Listen: v. to try to remember and/or consider a communication and permit the communicator to end a communication subset(s) before reacting

Frequently humans don’t like to be interrupted when talking and it is considered rude but there are smart ways of interrupting or trying to change the topic if the communication doesn’t seem to have an important point or if it is getting too lengthy. You can try changing to a new topic, delay the conversation for another time, or try to summarize what has been said so far and end the conversation prematurely.

If you have the luxury of time then you can listen to everything which is being said, briefly summarize what has been said, and ask follow up questions if necessary. This way the speaker will feel that their opinions and ideas have been respected even if you give short and sweet replies and don’t motivate the speaker to speak further.

In business where time is important being a good listener rather than a good talker is more important and all you have to really give is short and sweet replies. You will be more respected and appear smarter by being brief rather than by trying to impress someone with your wealth of knowledge and speaking longer than they do.

In relationships if you do less talking and really listen then you will be better able to understand their emotional state and the points which they try to communicate to you. Your responses will be more relevant and the quality of the conversation should improve.

I may be called biased but based on personal experience I feel that most women like to talk more than men and frequently want to share their emotional social experiences in sometimes dramatic and lengthy ways. An emotional talkative woman is a fact of life which most males have to live with or adapt to.

I have learned much in life by listening and reading what others have to say and have learned to be very selective in what I read and whom I ask questions to and about what topics.  

After a lifetime of wading through much verbosity, deception, and lies a headline is all that I have to read to know if the content interests me. I only enjoy talking to professionals from whom I can extract new valuable information and insights.

My never ending quest for truth and useful knowledge goes on. Some may accuse me of verbosity or excessive talkativeness for writing about 800 blogs in a year and a half but those are the fruits of a lifetime of logically analyzing and recording important information about nature and human and social behavior.

THE TRUTH ABOUT LONELINESS

download

Loneliness: n. a sensing frequently caused by a loss and/or an absence of companionship and/or friendship and a desire for companionship and/or friendship

The greatest feeling of loneliness arises when we lose someone really close to us like a spouse through death or divorce or lose a close friend. A sense of loneliness can also exist if we have no close relationships with humans and we exist for long periods of time without anything important to do.

Humans are a social animal but there have been historical exceptions of some mountain men who lived relatively successful isolated lives. They can’t be considered to be lonely because they were involved in a day to day struggle for survival which eliminated lonely thoughts from their lives to a large extent. If you are busy doing something that you really like which does not include humans then loneliness may not be a factor to consider and pay much attention to.

It is the lonely elderly and lonely single humans without friends who sometimes have trouble coping with their loneliness and sometimes even suffer mental and health problems as a result of their isolation.

The key to combating loneliness is getting busy doing something which you like which may not involve humans. A passionate hobby may be the solution to loneliness but you can also try making new social contacts via clubs, internet blogging, social networks, or doing some volunteer work for an organization.

If you can’t make and maintain good contacts with humans or have pets then you may have to live alone but that does not necessarily mean that you have to feel lonely if you are doing something which you like much. Loneliness is frequently a state of mind when you have nothing to do for extended periods of time.

If you are having those problems then fill in that time with some hopefully useful activity. Even if you are bedridden you can still read, listen to radio, watch TV, and surf the internet to occupy or use up your free time.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INDEPENDENCE

toward_independence

Independence: n. ability of a subset(s) to function with minimal help and/or control from other subsets excluding job and/or family responsibilities for humans

Most of us, unless we inherit great wealth, will be dependent on a job or welfare and committed to a spouse if we decide to marry.

True independence is only possible with great wealth or being a reclusive bum. The rest of us are dependent on job, family, friends, good and bad habits, and social laws which makes true independent living not entirely possible.

If you equate independence with being able to do what you want and when you want then you will need much money. Most of us are living very dependent lives and not independent ones because frankly big money is increasingly getting harder to obtain in society.

True social independence is freedom from tyranny, unjust complex taxation, and special interest laws. Just social independence also means a basic safety net to rely on if you become destitute and also unemployed.

Everyone is dependent on nature and even a self-sustaining agricultural community like the Amish is dependent on other humans for education, shelter, and transportation.

Even if you live a single life then you will still need a job unless you are a panhandler and you will have to depend on other humans to support your “independent” lifestyle. Due to worldwide trade more and more countries are becoming interdependent on each other and the days of rugged individualism and independent nationalism are quickly disappearing.

Technology is decimating small businesses and jobs in general and that means increasing dependency on government handouts or welfare to survive. Sexual promiscuity, an increasingly immoral upbringing, and a desire by many to escape a seemingly hopeless future through alcohol and drugs is causing many dysfunctional lives reflected in a small birth rate and the general disintegration of healthy family life.

Society is creating many individuals dependent on their family on into adulthood, many fatherless families on government welfare, and armies of young adults being supervised by social workers and rehabilitation personnel designed to try and deal with the increasing numbers of dysfunctional entitled individuals in society unable to make it on their own both physically and mentally.

Society is encouraging a profligate debt ridden lifestyle with little planning for the future and the result is a rapidly declining middle class of taxpayers causing not only greater personal debt but greater national and international debt and financial instability.

CONCLUSION:

Fail to teach independent individual financial responsibility, the moral skills necessary for good parenting and social interaction, and the result is bankrupt dependent individuals bankrupting the corrupt society and nation.

Armies of dependent adult children who never grow up to lead independent financial lives may seem like the greatest threat to Western Nations.  However, we can keep them on minimum basic welfare assistance throughout a lifetime and severely reduce their reproductive rate for the benefit of biodiversity and the survival of wildlife worldwide. Efficient advanced technology will be able to support their minimalist lifestyle if they don’t decide to revolt instead and demand a bigger piece of the pie than they deserve.

Killing time on welfare will be an accepted social norm for many in the not too distant future but they will also be using fewer natural resources and not polluting the environment as much which will be a good thing in the long duration.

THE TRUTH ABOUT GENEROSITY

Generosity

Generosity: n. excessively desiring (to give ones (possessions and/or knowledge) and/or time) and/or (to share one’s (time and/or knowledge) and/or possessions)

Giving of your time, energy, effort, money, knowledge, and emotional support is sometimes the right thing to do if you see results from your giving and it motivates you to give more.

Raising offspring is an example where much giving is expected and the return is merely well behaved, loving, and achievement based offspring which bring happiness in your life and a sense of accomplishment but little more.

With adults some giving is also expected but be cautious about showing generosity or too much giving because humans have a tendency to expect more of you when you give too much of yourself. Generosity frequently encourages dependency and you should avoid generosity if you feel that a dependent relationship is starting to develop.

Mutual generosity can exist but the generosity is frequently confined to only two humans and other important needs or priorities may be neglected by focusing too much on each other. Generosity is a form of undesirable profligacy on your part and frequently is not a balanced way to be living your life.

Generosity is only frequently considered a virtue by humans on the receiving end of it and not by those doing the giving. Altruists are frequently generous humans giving much more of themselves than they should because they frequently ignore their own personal development and improvement which they sacrifice for the supposed “greater good” or human welfare.

Generously volunteering your time, energy, effort, knowledge, and money for a worthy cause is sometimes a useful learning experience in the short duration but eventually you should have hopes of being paid back in some way for your efforts or the relationship becomes one of pure exploitation.

Long duration generosity can create dependent offspring and adults so don’t develop a reputation for being generous unless you want to burden your life with human parasites.

THE TRUTH ABOUT LUXURY

Luxury: n. an expensive sensory experience(s) and/or a subset(s) which frequently also implies the relative rarity of the experience(s) or subset(s) and it frequently is not a necessity

A luxury is not a necessity but that still does not keep some humans from desiring it intensely. We frequently envy or dream of having what we don’t or can’t have and luxurious products such as designer clothes, mansions, yachts, airplanes, and expensive cars are high on the list of desirable things which some humans deeply crave.

Luxury is a status symbol for many who view it as a symbol for successful rich living and that is why it has so much allure.

Con artists frequently use luxury items as a background for their con games misleading investors into thinking the con scheme is a big money maker when in fact it is only a luxurious front designed to cheat you out of your hard earned money.

THE TRUTH ABOUT MASOCHISM

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Masochism: n. a love of selfinjury and/or punishment

Masochism is frequently associated with sexual pleasure and for some rare individuals pain and sex are a desirable combination where one form is being whipped or paddled during the sexual act.

In general masochism is someone who finds pleasure in having pain inflicted but it is also sometimes coupled with mental illness where slashing of the wrists is sometimes done in an attempt to commit suicide or less lethal forms of self-destruction are done.

Masochists are considered crazy or mentally ill by many who just can’t understand that someone can actually get pleasure from pain.

There are also masochists who get pleasure from being punished in some way. Whether an abusive childhood is a cause is questionable but the fact remains that being grounded, spanked,  or being denied a privilege actually causes exciting pleasure for rare individuals.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INFATUATION

tumblr_lln8o7wrGI1qfns6yo1_500

Infatuation: n. short duration frequent lovin for a subset(s) with mostly unreasoning impulse

Your pulse and pleasurable feeling rises when in someone’s company, you love their looks, you feel jealous or insecure if they turn their attention away from you, you constantly think or daydream about them when not in their presence, you try to call or text frequently and feel anxious when you get no response, your sexual urges may be heightened, and you are irrationally obsessed with them not questioning whether they are telling you the truth but captivated by almost every word that they speak.

If these are some of your symptoms then you may be infatuated with a human and impulsively adoring them in an unquestioning way. Infatuations rarely last a long time but sometimes you luck out and your infatuation may turn out to be an acceptable soul mate and they may love you back and not be turned off by your fanaticism.

Frequently infatuation is falling in love with first impressions which may just be the tip of the iceberg which may have many undesirable characteristics below the surface that you may not be as impressed with. Basing a marital commitment on an infatuating experience can lead to long duration dissatisfaction, regrets, and divorce which can all be avoided if you spend more time truly trying to get to know the human with whom you are infatuated with.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INTERVENTION

logo

Intervention: n. interacting with a subset(s) trying to (help it focus and/or achieve its goal(s) more efficiently) and/or to ((change and/or delay) and/or stop) samer subset(s)

You can intervene to stop a physical fight or verbal argument, to try and resolve a family dispute, to prevent an offspring from playing with matches, to give charitable aid to a disaster area, and teach study skills to a failing student. Whenever you get involved in a direct way to try to change the course of future events then you are intervening.

Getting involved militarily in a nation to change it politically is intervention which may or may not be successful in the long duration. Lending or investing money in a nation is also a form of intervention designed to change or control the course of events in a nation.

Politicians pass laws intervening in our lives and changing them.

Intervention is not always just but it is being done all the time.

THE TRUTH ABOUT LEARNING

dreamstime_xl_27338322

Learn: v. to acquire (knowledge and/or skills) and/or (behaviors and/or experiences)

Learning can actually be enjoyable for those with very good memories and some talent for the physical and/or mental skills necessary to perform school tasks successfully.

Unfortunately most of us have average memories and little if any talent and don’t put in the extra time and effort to learn what we think is important or what really interests us. We trust what others teach us to learn which is what they say is important but quite a large quantity of it is not important and rather useless information.

Most common education is not very useful and is taught in a mediocre uninspiring way so for many learning is a boring seemingly purposeless activity. Liberal arts is going to be increasingly job poor in the 21st technological century and the huge quantity of largely useless liberal arts education should be greatly decreased.

The most effective learning is experience learning where you actively participate in an audio visual way and retain about 70% of the information after two week’s time. This is why individualized interactive audio visual computer education is an improvement over passive classroom learning where you seldom aurally interact with the subject matter and the instruction is not adjusted to your individual learning speed and background of knowledge.

Learning in an explorative active style is the best form of learning with hands on physical objects found in the environment. My recommendation is to have mini science labs in elementary school where students learn the basics of Archimedes principle for floating objects by building little boats of all shapes and sizes out of aluminum foil and putting in objects and/or liquids which make the boats sink or swim.

Exposing young impressionable minds to levers, pulleys, incline planes, pipes, thermometers, magnets, geometrical shapes, scales, springs, weights, tape measures, plastic tools, microscopes, electric motors, calculators, laptops, and safe chemical reactions would also be a good idea to create an interest in the real physical world around them and introduce them to the concept of quantifying objects numerically and not just drawing them or talking about them. 

Many graduating adults can’t even budget their money and this can be taught with a calculator in elementary school so the students can teach their parents to be financially responsible.

Artwork such as drawing and painting just exposes young minds to crayon, pencil, colors, and paint with little utilitarian value and most wind up just wasting time randomly creating lines and shapes and colors with minimal precision.

The age of irrational, mindless, verbose, trivial, non utilitarian education should rapidly come to an end if future humanity is to improve and not repeat historical mistakes as much.

THE TRUTH ABOUT JUDGMENT

iStock_000014989271_ExtraSmall

Judgment: n. achieving a conclusion which is frequently impulsively based upon subjective and/or objective facts where objective facts should be dominant if it becomes a conclusion with a high degree of truthfulness

Most of us make many more relatively impulsive judgments forming opinions and reacting to the humans and environment around us.

If we are not engineers or technologists only sometimes do we meticulously gather as many objective facts as possible and make decisions or judgments based on them.

Most of our lives are dependent on the manipulation of emotionally biased subjective facts and opinions and making rather subjective decisions and judgments based on them.

 

Judgments made in court are supposed to be objective by telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. The reality is that there is frequently much hearsay evidence by unreliable witnesses, enough untrue testimony, and biased professional opinion which makes true justice impossible to arrive at.

 

Convictions and sentencing is ballpark justice and sometimes injustice since big money and experienced lawyers play a dominant role in determining guilt or innocence. White collar fraud with large amounts of money involved rarely gets justly prosecuted and there are frequently minimal fines and rare prison terms associated with the fraud.

 

Politicians almost never make objective decisions but base their judgments on monied dominant special interests and majority emotionally biased opinions or beliefs held by their constituency.

Decision: n. making an opinion and/or judgment after some thought and/or inquiry

Whether or not we know it when we say something or do something we are frequently making impulsive and infrequently logical judgments about how to proceed. When we make decisions we frequently take time out to think about what to do or say.

We have been conditioned with good and bad habits and views of the world which greatly influence the impulsive and carefully considered judgments which we make in life.

Impulsive judgments dominate our lives because few of us have the luxury of taking time out to think about what we are going to do or say next. Our experiences in life have been stored in deep sub conscious memory and it guides most of our daily behavior. Yes, there are jobs which require much more logical thinking than usual but they are rather infrequent in the world of the common human.

The more impulsive your judgments are the more you handicap yourself with an inability to take time out to consider all the perhaps better alternative behaviors which you could be doing. Being too spontaneous is OK for low level jobs but if you are in a complex job which requires much reasoning or thinking then your spontaneity will be a handicap.

Judge not lest ye be judged is not very good advice because we make judgments every day of our lives and it is our responsibility to become better judges with more experience, useful knowledge and skills about humans and things. Being a good judge is basically knowing what is the right or wrong thing to say or do in any given circumstance and doing the right thing.

Are you a good judge of character? If you are looking for and favor honest, sincere, dependable, and basically trustworthy humans then you are a good judge of character. If you randomly pick friends and relationships and hope to get lucky in finding a good one then you are probably a bad judge of character.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INTERRUPTION

interruption

Interruption: n. impacting a communication and/or subset(s) before a human is done with the samer communication and/or subset(s)

We have all been interrupted while doing something or saying something and we are seldom pleased with the interruption, especially if it is something which we are really enjoying doing or saying.

Sometimes if the news is good or we are doing something rather uninteresting we don’t mind the interruption.

Boring verbose speakers frequently have to be interrupted even though it may not seem polite because they may be a valued customer or relative.

You should be a good listener more than a good speaker to show respect but even listening has its limits and changing to a different subject, ending a conversation, or postponing a conversation for a later date is sometimes the smart thing to do.

“Excuse me” or “Sorry for the interruption” should precede most interruptions with humans other than family.

Texting and emails can’t be interrupted but you can speed read through them if they don’t seem that important to spend your valuable time on them.

THE TRUTH ABOUT LISTENING

Listening-Quotes

Many of us like to talk but not listen, especially about the things important to us and we sometimes bore others with a lengthy speech or create conflict because we insist that our opinions be heard, that they are true, and don’t realize that others may have valid opinions and facts which are totally different from our own.

The way to reduce conflict and get our point across frequently means listening closely to what someone is saying, accurately reading their emotional attachment to the topic, and asking follow up questions to determine what they are really thinking and why they think that way.

Listening and probing a little with questions will help you to better understand where a human is coming from and understanding will lead to a better reply than just an impulsive one without reflection.

Only after getting all the vital facts, opinions, and emotional attachment should you proceed with your opinions and facts and you should do so as briefly as possible so that the lengthiness of your explanations don’t confuse the one you are talking to.

Realize that just listening intently and smart questioning does not mean that you will convince another human that your opinion is valid but they will feel that you have respected their point of view by carefully listening and devoting your precious time to them.

Frequently saying that you agree with one or two points which a human is making will put that human in a more receptive mood to perhaps accept your point of view also.

Finally, if after listening to someone that you feel is wrong and will deny that they are wrong it is sometimes best to say nothing at all and move on to a different subject or end the conversation. If you are the boss and it is an employee whom you disagree with then of course you will have to deal with the problem head on to the best of your ability.

This blog is about listening and not about how to win an argument, confrontation, or discussion which requires more skills than just careful listening. If you are smart then you will become a better listener than a talker.

Good listeners are frequently more respected than good talkers because most humans think that what they have to say is important even though it is frequently boring trivia.

THE TRUTH ABOUT PREDICTIONS

Predictions-122608L_13

Prediction: n. communicating a subset(s) which will exist with a probability in the future

Most of us are frequently good at predicting the near future knowing that we will have to pay rent, pay the mortgage, go to work, go shopping for food or clothes, and probably have to have enough money for car maintenance or repairs.

Project into the future more than a year and chances are that most of us will not be able to predict the future very well. Predicting the future 10 or 50 years ahead is impossible to do for most and some of the predictions are dire. There is the possibility of financial collapse or depression, loss of job, possible divorce, a major health issue, and less likely the possibility of war which has ravaged the world historically.

Fortune tellers and horoscopes are popular because most sub consciously feel that they have an advantage if they can know the future or predict it. The stock market is rigged favoring big money investors but there are still many relatively poor investors trying to predict the future and still making very risky money losing investments. Many couples have a gut feeling that a relationship will not work out but still sometimes get married hoping for a miracle of happy cohabitation.

The most successful humans are those who plan for the future by acquiring new useful knowledge and skills which will help them get a better job. Some save money to invest in a home or real estate which hopefully will be useful in retirement.

The economic system does not encourage savings or thrifty behavior and the financial future of many is in doubt as well as the financial future of the nation which is so far in debt that financial collapse is imminent.

Is the future going to be better for you or worse? Only time will tell and unfortunately most of us are at the mercy of big money maneuvers which only the very rich can predict.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INCOMPETENCE

Incompetence

Incompetence: n. not having many of the requirements essential to an identified subset(s) and not achieving a goal(s)

We have all been exposed to incompetent humans in politics, in organizations, in professions, and on the job.

Frequently the ones in leadership positions are the least competent because they may have emotional intelligence and can manage other humans to some extent but they frequently don’t have the necessary skill set to make achievable desirable goals and see to it that the right information and qualified humans exist to achieve those goals.

Managerial skills are different than technical skills and a manager trying to lead technically skilled personnel who has little grasp of the logic behind the technology will frequently fail to make good decisions which benefit the organization in the long duration.

Lengthy experience eventually does eliminate incompetence to some extent. That is why employers prefer an experienced worker to an unexperienced one because they know that the probability of an inexperienced worker making more than his or her share of mistakes is rather great and they want to avoid those mistakes as much as possible.

Job mentoring or apprenticeship is not very common in the United States and that is one major reason why new graduates find it hard to get employed straight out of school. The fact that liberal arts is job poor is the major reason why new graduates can’t find work right away.

The sad fact is that the educational system is producing armies of improperly educated incompetent graduates who aren’t prepared for the new technological realities of the 21st century.

THE TRUTH ABOUT IMPROVEMENT

images

Improvement: n. changing a subset(s) so that it is more in (value and/or (goodness and/or rightness)) and/or (quality and/or usefulness) and/or (desirability and/or health)

There is always room for improvement in this world. Improve humans, organizations, nations, technology, and the world.

Improving humans means reproducing healthier and smarter humans in greater numbers than the unhealthy and not so smart. Organic food, moderate exercise, birth control, and abortion will make present and future generations healthier.

Polygamy for the very rich, much more technological and scientific education, an improved logical language, and individualized interactive audio visual computer education for rich and poor offspring will make society and future generations much smarter than it currently is.

A new updated secular moral code taught to all impressionable young minds, just simplified taxation, elimination of special interest laws, a more logical language, and a reformed welfare system with a safety net for all destitute and also unemployed at any age is what is necessary to improve the peaceful and just interaction of humans worldwide.

My evergreen truth books CHANGES IN WELFARE LAWS, JUSTICE, SCIENTIFIC THESAURUS, and EDUCATION REFORM offer solutions for improving society worldwide and saving the biodiversity of the food supply and wilderness areas which is so vital to the long duration survival of human civilization.

THE TRUTH ABOUT PLEASURE

pleasure-guilty

Pleasure: n. sensing a sensation which the brain subjectively judges to be good and is what most people desire to experience in various degrees of intensity

Objectively the pleasure which you sense may not be the best thing for you in the long duration such as a drug high which feels good but can devastate your life if you become addicted. Some masochists find pleasure in pain so their brain is dysfunctional and needs rewiring from an objective point of view.

Some hedonists devote their lives to the pursuit of pleasure in all its deviant forms and frequently live to regret their unwise choices. Doing only what feels good is an irrational highly emotional view of life which is devoid of logic and prior human experience about the right way to be living life among other humans.

Our pleasure seeking minds must be disciplined to avoid bad pleasures in favor of good pleasures. Morality and reason helps us to differentiate between the good and bad and good role models are the key to doing so successfully.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INTENTION

Action-Intention6

Intention: n. mentally desiring to do a subset(s) in the future and/or communicating a personal goal(s)

Life is filled with good intentions not being fulfilled. Most of us would like to

eat healthy,

get good grades,

get a good job,

find a soul mate,

find more happiness,

be more lovable or attractive,

find better friends,

make good investments,

have better social skills,

spend more time with offspring and/or spouse,

be a better parent,

fulfill our promises,

and in general do things which will improve our lives.

The reality is that good intentions must be followed up by realistic relevant actions which demand putting in the time, energy, effort, and frequently money to achieve those good intentions.

Good intentions are frequently just mental desires which linger in the mind or appear once in a while which must be followed up by actions to get satisfactory results or achieve the good intentions.

Some of your good intentions may actually turn out to be bad intentions in the long duration. You may intend to make enough money to buy a new car by investing in risky stocks only to find out that you lose what little money you had saved up or borrowed in the long duration.

Your intention may be to motivate your offspring to behave well. You may use exaggerated praise to motivate your offspring only to find out that they begin to ignore your false praise and no longer feel any need for it. Your good intention crashed and burned because it was actually a good intention with the wrong actions so your good intention failed miserably in the long duration.

Intention is wanting or desiring something in the future so try to want something which you really need and not something which you impulsively just want which you may not need.

You also frequently need the right skills and knowledge to fulfill your good intentions so don’t be disappointed if you fail sometimes and be ready to readjust your actions and try again.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE SUCCESSFUL?

Success-01

Some are leaders, most are followers, and the remainder are leaders and followers within organizations. Who you become will determine whether you will consider yourself a success in life. Few realize that being a follower can also be a successful life even though you don’t have many friends and don’t become rich along the way.

If you want to become a top leader then you will have to have good social skills or what is called emotional IQ where you can evaluate the worth of an individual as a worker or useful participant in your organization rather successfully. Some signs of leadership potential is having a good memory for names, getting good grades in school, being the head of one or more clubs in school, and having excellent skills and knowledge about the organization which you will be leading and the functions it performs.

If you enjoy being with humans and interact with them successfully then you are leadership potential.  It greatly helps if you have an education from a prestigious university and if your family is rich and socially well connected but you can also try to work your way up an organization starting at the relative bottom and working your way up to a high leadership position based on a good fundamentals skill set.

Most with leadership potential wind up working in middle management and never work their way up to the top leadership position unless they start a business of their own and are the leaders right from the start.

Most of us are successful if we have a job or career which pays well and can afford a family which will be our primary legacy when we reach old age.

Success for most of us is living day to day, paying our bills, and being relatively happy at what we are doing. If you live a healthy life, have some excitement along the way, and die at a relatively old age then you can consider your life to have been a success.

If you have contributed to conservation organizations and tried to live sustainably trying to conserve biodiversity then you have truly been a morally outstanding citizen of the world and nature will thank you for it.

If you are an honest, sincere, dependable, trustworthy, and competent human who cares about biodiversity then you are living a successful life and should be proud of yourself.

THE TRUTH ABOUT HUMAN RIGHTS

Human-Has-Rights

Historically many humans were slaves or considered property for the ruling class. They were a vital economic unit. The Romans had Greek slaves, serfs in the middle ages were effectively slaves for the agricultural land owners, and blacks were slaves on plantations.

The concept of human rights for everyone is a rather recent concept and the ruling class has found economic ways of enslaving humans for their economic gain since all humans are really economic units to be exploited for their work potential.

There is a serious question to be answered – What are your human rights when you are destitute and unemployed and unable to find work either due to personal incompetence or an absence of jobs? The fact is that to avoid starvation the government must provide a safety net for the destitute and also unemployed.

A basic human right ought to be financial support for basic standardized needs and an opportunity for internet reeducation in a useful job if you are willing to put in the time, energy, effort, and achievement to the best of your ability. You do not have a basic human right to a job or work, especially if you are incompetent, but you should have the hope for reentering the work force through personal effort and free government internet education assistance to retrain in a useful technological job.

Big businesses, robotization, standardization of parts, and the internet are all going to make the economy job poor unless you are technologically literate and there will probably soon be armies of unemployed, insufficiently skilled humans on welfare or government assistance.

If those destitute and also unemployed and on government assistance have a right to vote then they can potentially elect officials who will grant them a luxury lifestyle on welfare at the expense of the dwindling remaining working taxpayers. When welfare numbers exceed 50% of the population the power of their vote should be reduced by a percentage so that working citizens have more power in the political arena then those on welfare.

China has no problem adjusting the voting rights of her citizens because they don’t vote so the leadership has full authority to grant the destitute and also unemployed basic survival needs.

Specific details and changes in laws will be necessary nationally and worldwide. I outline those steps in my evergreen truth books CHANGES IN WELFARE LAWS and NEW UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS.

THE TRUTH ABOUT INEPTITUDE

ineptitude

Ineptitude: n. competence decreased and/or absent because of negligence and/or mental impairment caused by (absence of sleep and/or use of mind altering drugs) and/or impulsive mistakes

Ineptitude and incompetence mean the same thing in the dictionary so I have redefined ineptitude to mean incompetence under the influence of bad behavior in a normally competent human.

If you are a doctor who removes a spleen instead of a kidney you may try to blame it on an assistant nurse but ultimately you are to blame for your ineptitude which may be caused by your negligence, impulsive mistake, and/or mental impairment from the absence of sleep and/or drug use.

A competent professional may be inept some of the time but not all the time.
