6651. (I don’t
like cauliflower, but) the buffalo cauliflower (with spicy tahini) at Yard
House (YardHouse.com) is (pretty) tasty . . . probably because it doesn’t taste
like cauliflower;
6652. The poke
nachos (i.e., marinated raw ahi tuna, avocado, cilantro, serrano peppers, green
onions, nori, sesame seeds, sweet soy sauce, sriracha aioli & white truffle
sauce over crispy wontons) (at Yard House) are good too;
6653. When
nobody else celebrates you, learn to celebrate yourself. When nobody else compliments you, then
compliment yourself. It’s not up to
other people to keep you encouraged.
It’s up to you. Encouragement
should come from the inside;
6654. I can say
I’ve been to a championship parade/rally (specifically for the Washington
Capitals winning the Stanley Cup);
6655. If you
don’t want to look like a lobster after going to a championship parade/rally,
wear sunblock;
6656. What is
now proved was once only imagined. Allow
yourself to contemplate this. As this
one line of great wisdom sinks into your consciousness, your imagination will
then begin to take over;
6657.
Everything that you can experience with your senses was once in
someone’s imagination;
6658. If one
advances confidently in the direction of her/his dreams and endeavors to live
the life which s/he has imagined, s/he will meet with a success unexpected in
common hours;
6659. Your
imagination is yours and yours alone.
You have the inborn capacity to use it in any way that you choose. No one else is responsible for your
imagination. Anything placed in your
imagination and held there ultimately becomes your reality;
6660. Begin
noticing and being careful about keeping your imagination free of thoughts that
you do not wish to materialize. Instead,
initiate a practice of filling your creative thoughts to overflow with ideas
and wishes that you fully intend to manifest.
Honor your imaginings regardless of others seeing them as crazy or
impossible;
6661. From (all
of) the players selected in the 2004 NHL Draft, Alexander Ovechkin has played
the most (regular season) games (i.e., 1,003), scored the most points (i.e.,
1,122) and scored the most goals (i.e., 607);
6662. From (all
of) the defensemen selected in the 2004 NHL Draft, Mike Green has played the
most (regular season) games (i.e., 787), scored the most points (i.e., 464) and
scored the most goals (i.e., 142);
6663. From (all
of) the players selected in the 2006 NHL Draft, Nicklas Backstrom has scored
the most points (i.e., 799) and registered the most assists (i.e., 590);
6664. From (all
of) the defensemen selected in the 2007 NHL Draft, Karl Alzner has played the
most (regular season) games (i.e., 673);
6665. From (all
of) the goalies selected in the 2008 NHL Draft, Braden Holtby has played the
most (regular season) games (i.e., 361) and won the most games (i.e., 225);
6666. The (Las)
Vegas pool parties really gouge you on drinks and sunscreen (i.e.,
$33.00/bottle) (specifically Encore Beach Club);
6667. I can say
I’ve ridden in (the backseat of) a Porsche (911 Carrera S);
6668. (It seems
like) the backseat of a Porsche 911 Carrera S was designed/made for a 12
year-old. . . . It is not comfortable;
6669. It’s
weird having the skin under your eyebrows peel (because of a sunburn);
6670. It’s not
a (Las) Vegas wedding until there’s been fire dancers;
6671. It’s
(also) weird having the skin by your ear canal peel (because of a sunburn);
6672. Imagine
yourself to be the ideal you dream of and desire. Remain attentive to this imagined state and
as fast as you completely feel that you are already this ideal it will manifest
itself as reality in your world;
6673. Never get
so busy making a living that you forget to make a life;
6674. Deejays
(specifically Paul van Dyk) are like us.
They like memes too!
6675. You can
get in way more trouble with a good idea than a bad idea because you forget
that the good idea has limits;
6676. When ego
and not competence drives what we undertake, we have blind spots. If you know what you understand, you know
where you have an edge over others. When
you are honest about where your knowledge is lacking you know where you are
vulnerable and where you can improve;
6677. We should
not attribute to malice that which is more easily explained by stupidity. In a complex world, using this model helps us
avoid paranoia and ideology. By not
generally assuming that bad results are the fault of a bad actor, we look for
options instead of missing opportunities.
This model reminds us that people do make mistakes. It demands that we ask if there is another
reasonable explanation for the events that have occurred. The explanation most likely to be right is
the one that contains the least amount of intent;
6678. China has
zipcodes;
6679. China has
very long (and convoluted) mailing/shipping addresses;
6380. Internal anal
. . . check;
6681. I am
always doing my best. And, in any given
situation, my best is all I can give. It
may not be perfect. I may have more to
learn. I may want to grow into more
mastery, but right now, in this moment, all I can do is my best. And right now, in this moment, my best is good
enough. I am good enough;
6682. A
powerful way to start healing the wound of “not enough” is to practice letting
go of judgment . . . of ourselves and others;
6683. When it
comes to letting go of judgment of others, try to remind yourself that “everyone
is fighting a battle you know nothing about;”
6684. When letting
go of judgment of yourself, try to remember that you took on a lot of my
beliefs when you were really young and, at that time, you didn’t have a way of
deciding if the things you were choosing to believe were going to be helpful to
you in the long term;
6685. Your subconscious
beliefs drive most of your behavior. So
judging yourself for carrying limiting or faulty beliefs is like blaming the
patient for being unwell. It doesn’t
help. What does help is to focus on
healing your deep, inner wounds and (your) limiting beliefs;
6686. It’s
expensive to mail/ship packages to China (i.e., $49.00-162.00);
6687.
Apparently, all members of the (U.S. Army) Special Forces have foreign
language training;
6688. What does
standing in line in a parking garage for 5 ½ hours get you? The answer is: A green, raffle ticket that
may or may not let you get a picture with the Stanley Cup (sometime in the
future);
6689. The more
we shift the focus from our desires to wanting more for others, the richer we
become;
6690. When we
make the transformation to a being of sharing, the question of how to become
inspired will disappear. So whenever we
find ourselves “wanting more,” the solution is to do more for society, for
humanity or for the environment. Any act
of sharing as a response to our wants leads to feeling inspired. The fact is it just feels good to do something
for others;
6691. Understand
that it isn’t necessarily about giving our possessions or money away; rather,
it’s about living in the same energy and attracting that energy in each other. It’s about thinking of others before
ourselves and offering the love we feel for all of life, first in our thoughts
and then in our actions and that’s how we make a connection to inspiration;
6692. All
stressful thoughts represent a form of resistance you wish to eradicate. Change those thoughts by monitoring your
feelings and opting for joy rather than anxiety and you’ll access the power of
intention;
6693. The shape
and quantity of your thoughts determine the amount of resistance. Thoughts that generate bad feelings are
resistant thoughts. Any thought that
puts a barrier between what you would like to have and your ability to attract
it into your life is resistance. Your
intention is to live a tranquil life free of stress and anxiety. You know that stress doesn’t exist in the
world and that there are only people thinking stressful thoughts. Stressful thoughts all by themselves are a
form of resistance. You don’t want
stressful, resistant thoughts to be your habitual way of reacting to your
world. By practicing thoughts of minimal
resistance, you’ll train yourself to make this your natural way of reacting and
eventually you’ll become the tranquil person you desire to be, a stress-free
person free of the “dis-ease” that stress brings to the body. Stressful thoughts all by themselves are the
resistance that you construct that impedes your connection to the power of
intention;
6694. Believe
that you shall receive and you shall receive;
6695. You came
here with music to play. You don’t want
to ultimately realize that you didn’t fulfill your own dharma because you tried
to please someone else’s mental picture of what you should be doing;
6696. By
becoming more loving toward yourself, you will attract more of the higher,
faster energies and begin to change what’s inside of you. In your thoughts, cultivate an inner voice and
attitude that’s 100 percent of the time for you. Imagine an aspect of yourself that only
supports and loves you. You might
schedule a certain time of the day when that’s the only thought that you allow
yourself to pay attention to. Gradually
this attitude will extend to other people even if you can only do it for a
minute or two. You’ll begin to receive
this energy back and ultimately be able to send thoughts of love and joy to
everyone and everything in your world;
6697. The
universe responds with the same energy that we send out. If you attract a lot of people who wish to
take advantage of you, you need to consider what you’re doing to attract
victimizers into your life. If you run
into anger a lot, explore the angry thoughts you have inside you. If your consciousness is a “Give me! Give me! Give me!” energy, you’ll attract all manner of
demanding energies into your life. You’ll
know if this is true by the number of deadlines not being met, demanding bosses
or customers you encounter and the feeling of being a victim. Send out “Give me! Give me! Give me!” energy to the universe and it will
do the same in return;
6698. If what
you give is self-respect and self-love, the universe will return the love and
respect you’ve been radiating. It’s
really so simple. You can’t give away
what you don’t have;
6699. We must
learn to make a conscious choice to say “no” to anything that takes us away
from an inspired life. We can start by
turning down requests that involve actions that don’t correspond with our inner
knowing about why we’re here;
6700. We can
simplify life by cutting down on the busywork that keeps us off purpose;
