The G.A.M.E.

Genuine Actual Mind Experience

I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting on the nature of reality and how we choose to perceive events that happen in our lives as either positive or negative.

The thing is we learned to tell the difference.

We have all these dumb rules that our parents and teachers taught us because their parents and teachers taught them.

We have all the seemingly “sensible” rules of our culture.

1. Be nice

2. Get good grades in school so you can go to college

3.  Go to college

4. Get good grades in college so you can get a good job with benefits

5. Get a good job with benefits and follow their rules there…

And if you follow them they pretty much don’t notice, because you fit in. You blend.

But dare to come out from behind that sham of a process and all of a sudden you are some kind of weirdo threatening the sanctity of all the lies our religions and politicians have been spinning for centuries…

and meanwhile people’s souls are slowly shriveling as they pursue “success” in the material world. Only to discover it’s a vapid wasteland of more “shoulds” and “have to’s”.

The true rules are all about total and complete freedom to do what you want, be who you want and experience a rich and meaningful life.

So for me the G.A.M.E. is:

Genuine

Actual

Mind

Experience.

We are having a genuine, actual, Mind, experience.

New rule number 1.

You get what you focus on. So focus on what you want.

Sub rule: whatever you are experiencing up to this point is a result of the focus of your mind. If you OWN the fact that you are NOT a victim, that YOU and only YOU are responsible for whatever experiences you’ve gone through, then it gives you POWER. Wouldn’t it be cool to have the power to create more and more of the kind of life you actually would enjoy living?

New rule number 2.

You have been created, not by God but by yourself to live the dream that you have chosen to call “reality”. You might be surprised to find that we are all just actors. We write all our own lines and choose to “be” or not to “be”.

Sub rule: if you created this reality that you are currently experiencing and you aren’t really enjoying it, YOU can change your story. You are not at the mercy of someone or something else writing your lines. You wrote this story! Write something better! Add a chapter where you as the “hero” or “heroine,” KICK ASS!

More new “rules” coming down the pipeline soon!

In the meantime, I’m working behind the scenes to create some cool stuff for you to download free.  If you’d like to be the first on your block to get the grooviness, join my opt-in list! (scroll up to the right)
