I teach ballet to adults. You would think a dance move would be easier to explain to a grown person, well it's not. Instead of starting right away, an adult will skint their eyes and use their brain. I child will start the move when you are half way explaining it, and they'll nail it the first time.

He has an innate talent, he was born for it. Yes, his father gave him a tough teaching, that's what he called discipline. But Michael was never forced to learn something, he was the one wanting it. He would watch his idols like james brown and fred astaire on tv and would soak up the steps like a sponge. when he was about 3/4 his mother said he would often see mj dancing to the sound of a washing machine and he was even the one who asked his father if he could already join his brothers on stage.

Within that space the right action will flow only then life will reveal its true miracles because when you’re in tune with life’s energy everything will be smooth because there isn’t going to be any difference between the bad and the good there won’t be any preference because you’ll have learnt to go with the wave 🌊 wave is wave there’s no bad or good wave when you mastered the technique you experience the thrill of passing another wave. It’s an experience not a story.

no that's not what he meant. this is why we can't progress. because of dumb idiots who think they get it but are so far off because of their own inability and limitations. it's about pausing and thinking about who you really want to be. and that is way harder than you think. it's called "to be in the moment", sounds really simple but it's to completely difficult. most of us don't even know what it really means. what does it mean to be in the moment? once you figure that out, you'll realize that most of us are simply mimicking each other, we're not really being in the moment unless we're by ourselves, which we mostly near are never. you don't really know who you are. you need to be on your own for quite a while to really understand that but it also comes with a lot of pain and loneliness, which is where wu wei comes in. you don't realize how much brainwashing you're receiving each day by people you surround yourself with, regardless of how nice and positive they are. you don't realize the damage it's doing to you each day. each day you have the choice to start becoming your true self but you never do because of others around you. that is what he meant.

A long time ago, I asked the Great Spirit/Universe for a teacher. I kept my eyes open for some time anywhere I went, expecting maybe a run in with a person with a better philosophy than I had. Instead, I found Brother Watts here in cyberspace. And he's still teaching me. Each speech plants a seed. I look up the people he mentions like Lao Tzu, and learn more. I learned from Watts that every moment is teaching us, no matter how unpleasant or mundane. There is something sacred in everything, a jewel can be plucked out of the most humble interaction.

the uncertainties accompanying this present economy/market is more reasons I have my daily investment decisions guided by a portfolio-coach seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time, both employing profit-oriented strategy and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downtrends, coupled with the exclusive analysis, it's quite impossible not to outperform.

Not really. As an engineer, I have to deliver on practical functional goals. I'm not always in the mood each day, but I do what's required anyway, emotions aside, in a structured, organized, thought out manner. When you have responsibilities or goals in life you are only hindering yourself only working when you "feel like it". Its just an excuse for laziness. This mentality only works with useless arts and crafts or anything that isn't practical and is necessary for it to work. A lot of my best work came from being forced to fix something under the gun or to met a deadline. My point is we are all capable of so much even if we think or feel we aren't. Don't "go with the flow" all the time, be careful doing that for too long, lest you end up a loser in life with hardship and a poor financial situation. Like it or not money brings safety, comfort, and security. Its necessary to get as much as possible.

@@eunoia888 He means that you shouldn't take everything too seriously or else the result will come off as if it doesn't feel real. For example, think about this, you want to talk to this group of people but don't know how, so you start searching for ways you can talk to them, you then start focusing to hard on the problem and with that you focus on the issues and anxiety, with thoughts like "oh but what if they find me weird when I do this?" or anything of the sort, but when you finally let go of thinking too hard, the answer will pop up nicely in your mind, to just walk up and talk to them.

If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE Truth, the life and the only way to Heaven? Revelation 20:15 ''Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.'' Through Jesus Christ, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Biblical explanation of the Gospel: God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23) The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell. Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him. For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ - for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned. No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin. Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures, He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him. This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him by reading God's Word. So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13) ''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15) ''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19) Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6) (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually. When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14) Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) ''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7) If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes - to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God. You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son. ''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17) ''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10) You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ. As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so. In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.'' ''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19) ''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41) ''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body, but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21) ''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4) ''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12) Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left! "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you! Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''

I don’t want to ruin the mystic , this clip IS specifically just that: a guided meditation session. It’s a refined and streamlined “thought 💭 exercise.” (Good for you.) 👌👍

You really can’t meditate, it’s a state of being. You can get into a meditative state doing probably anything. You just have to learn to manage yourself.

Love Alan Watts. I'm 76 and made up (or at least thought so) a law I called "The Law of Forced Opposites". This "law" states: When one has to force something into existence, one can expect an opposide result.

I hear what my human brain would identify as life. Sounds. Howling winds, humming electrical frequencies, the footsteps of my loved ones, and my own personal jazz. My surroundings are me, and I am one with them. We are the culmination of being.

This is the concept that stoicism teaches. Being stoic does not mean not caring, but being ok either way because internally you remain not troubled. You still do what needs to be done though, so it does not mean being passive

Let's not forget that you have to force it first for it to be natural... like walking, reading, writing, speaking and every other thing that we do.

Yes but it stays in your subconscious when u least expect it you remember. You learn from studying your environment. So when he says flow he means just study and the rest will come naturally/unintentionally. Don't wake up everyday saying I'm going to read, write, walk ect.
