  The Three Stones of Brilliance: Scraping Off the Aimless Path https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-three-stones-of-brilliance-scraping-off-the-aimless-path--71207121 Is Your Life Toppling Over? We’ve all been there—working ourselves to the bone, yet feeling like we’re just spinning our wheels in the mud. We call it "the grind," but sometimes it feels more like a slow descent into aimlessness. The Kikongo people of Central Africa have a secret for us: a pot needs exactly three stones to stay steady. Not one, not two, and definitely not a pile of pebbles. If you feel like you’re "wandering," it might not be because you lack a map. It might be because you’re carrying too many stones that don't belong to your fire. We’re talking about the "Program of Depression" and how to flip the script to a "Mission of Brilliance."

How the Illusion of Being Observed Can Make You a Better Person: Scientific American

This an interesting article for those o the journey. the question for me is how can I use information like this to improve my life? How could I use the fact that someone watching me even an inanimate object could force me to be at my best. This reminds me of what religion use to do for society. When everyone is convinced  that they are being watched by a higher being it motivates them to alwas do their best, and more importantly do what's right. Where has this feeling gone? Have we advance so far that we have dropped the idea that we are being watched by other worldly beings that monitor and judge our every step. Sounds intrusive, but it serves it purpose.
I often state that we need to operate as if the next seven generations depends on our action now I am switching this statement to " My Ancestors and the 7 generations to come are all watching me and depending on me to be the best person I can be."
How you choose to use this info is your choice but I hope rather than focusing on how it effects others you will more so focus on how you can use it best to effect your own life.

  1. Growing up it was always stressed to me that I should be on my "p's & q's" (best behavior for you younguns reading..LOL) because I didn't ever know who was watching. I still think that way. We have to make sure generation after generation people understand that they are setting examples always whether they know they are being watched or not!!
