#No-ting #Problem: 2018-06-10

  1. Thinking something should not be (no-ting) will not cause you to be magically rescued from it.
  2. Thinking something should not be (no-ting) because it is wrong will neither improve it nor lessen it.
  3. Having faith or hope that your thinking that something should not be (no-ting) will fix it is misplaced faith or hope.
  4. Change your life by focusing on solutions to problems instead of on the problems themselves.
  5. Change your attitude, emotions, outlook, responses, and results by focusing on solutions to problems instead of on the problems themselves.

#Try #Failing: 2018-06-14

  1. Trying fails because it is a form of no-ting, denying failure and thereby focusing on failure.
  2. Complaining and whining fail because they are a form of no-ting, denying some negative reality and thereby focusing on, feeding, and increasing that negative reality.
  3. Anger and meanness fail because they are a form of no-ting, of suppressing some negative reality and thereby focusing on, feeding, and increasing that negative reality.
  4. Blaming and damning fail because they are a form of no-ting, of wanting some negative reality that exists not to exist and thereby fortifying and reinforcing that negative reality with undue attention.
  5. Demanding and controlling fail because they are a form of no-ting, of wanting to make a negative reality that exists not to exist and thereby focusing on, feeding, and increasing that negative reality.

#Self-defeating #Failing: 2018-06-15

  1. Why do we get fixated on failing when that makes it worse? Because we want the pride of knowing evil (bad or wrong) more than we want success.
  2. How do we know evil? We know both good and evil by giving our identity to some knowledge of good or evil.
  3. Why does giving our identity to knowledge convince us that we know? Because by identifying with something, we claim it, contain it, have it, own it, possess it; and, psychologically, we are it.
  4. Why is claiming to know so important to us? Because such claims are the basis for ego, pride, and high self-esteem, a.k.a. ego pleasure.
  5. What can we do instead? We can surrender our ego, stop claiming to know, and give all glory and praise to God alone.
