Spirituality for Living

Projection and how it impacts our lives. It isn’t as simple as pop psychology would have people see it, and it gets flung around too casually. It winds up being like the pot calling the kettle black, and few heed the old aphorism; Remove the timber in your own eye before trying to remove the [...]

Projection is quite natural, and by projection I mean projection of your state of mind. Ever notice when you are actively engaging someone in conversation you tend to imitate their body language without thinking about it? In the case of a community some of those states are viral. You can tell when someone is “not [...]

We all project energy, and we interpret the energy coming to us to make sense of it like a bats sonar. The other being does the same. For me the process of projection is primary data not secondary, like senses are to you. In the case of two individuals; you project onto them, they project onto [...]

What is the worst projections people do? Fear is very virulent and it isn’t instinctive. We warp our own natures for the sake of fear. Fear of rejection, it creates rejection.

People project onto us and we assume roles. Young people tend to worry a lot about things they shouldn’t. Thus who has had a smooth third decade? Seems to me stories of that are rare to non existent. In their twenties, who doesn’t have some comedy of errors to relate at least, if not a [...]

The best leaders don’t want the leadership positions we have projected onto them and with good reason. They resist the predetermined role. They realize that doing that for the people will help little or not at all. We project onto them a role that requires them to ’spin’ even though we say we don’t like [...]

I have to live with myself. They call me autistic, and it is why I act so strange and why I feel like I’m crazy. I did for the longest time. Fought it. It isn’t fun, but one set of questions I have never had; Who am I really?, What do I want?, How do [...]

Your actions are based on your thoughts and feelings. I always thought it was strange to say “you have no reason …”. It is a very strange statement. You may have no reason from their point of view, but you don’t live from their point of view. Your reasons are your own, and you live [...]
