A functional alchemist is aware of… alchemy leadership personal development qigong spirituality Mar 10, 2021

We are in charge of our own destiny in terms of the choices that we made to grow personally, energetically, and or spiritually. When those choices are made in a conscious way we become aware of the possibilities and we get to understand that:

  • A functional alchemist will never be done.
  • A functional alchemist will never master anything.

The Year of the Metal Ox (2021/4719) holidays rat year of the metal ox Feb 11, 2021

The Metal Ox will bring order to the mess the Rat created last year, but the process will be slow and full of growing pains.

The Rat forced us to look inward. And, with the pandemic, quarantine, and shelterin in place, it also (you might say unpleasantly) removed the excuse of time from our hands.

Furthermore, the Rat is the firs...

This is a lot — Pandemic Edition. civility covid 19 esoteric passive aggressive spirituality May 22, 2020

Let me be clear on this I am not defending any positions; I think there are good things for any position as well many not so helpful things. I am writing this as an observer. I was hoping that during this pandemic, we would finally come together and meet in our similarities and learn from our differences.

Trust often does not come easy to many of us due to our history. We have, in one way or another, experienced betrayal by people we love. When it comes to sp...

Tailoring Your Offer After Covid-19 business strategy covid 19 crisis post covid small business target market Apr 20, 2020

This pandemic will shape our economy for the next 30 to 40 years. Generational attitude and pattern of behaviors are defined by what is going on in the world and how old we are when significant events happen like this pandemic, 9/11, or the Vietnam war, to name a few.

Big events like the Covid-19 pandemic generate uncertainty about the future; these uncertainties will shape how we think about our future, especially spending, family planning, education, all that way to employment decisions. Also...

Eating Food in Heaven or Hell daoism mba personal development self-awareness taoism Mar 18, 2020

I got this story from my teacher Dr. Jerry Alan Johnson, he also added it to his memoirs A Master’s Journey Secret Memoirs Of a Warrior, Healer, & Mystic.

I believe it is not a better time than in which we are living now to share it, to show the importance of working together, because you like or not we are on this together.

This ancient Daoist tale was designed to teach the new students the importance of service and working together for the better of all mankind.

Eating Food in Heaven or H...
