Give It Up To Have It All

Give it up to have it all. Some people see how rich and free nomad life can be and wonder how it can be. I’ll tell you in Give-It-Up-Have-It-All-Bob Davis Podcast 1103.

Life Coaches

Certainly these days the life coaches and self help gurus like to tell us how to live our best lives.

How To Have It All

As much as they tell us how to have it all…

What Coaches Don’t Tell Us

In contrast they don’t tell us what we have to give up…

To have it all.

Lakeside

Presently I’m staying lakeside.

Summer’s Arrival

That is to say I get to experience the summer’s arrival in a way that all the other cabin owners up here might not be able to.

Life Back In The World

One of the things it’s important to realize is how complex and overwhelming life ‘back in the world can be’.

Lists And Shopping Trips

Such as lists and shopping trips.

Worry

And worries about money and jobs.

Nomad Life

On the other hand nomad life can be surprisingly ascetic.

Not Luxurious

Certainly nomad life isn’t luxurious.

Overlooked

In other words what we give up to have this freedom is often overlooked.

Count My Blessings

Therefore I’m taking this placid late spring early morning in front of the fire to count my blessings.

Share

And to share what I gave up…

To gain it all.

Contemplating Change

Although long time listeners will think of some of this as a review I think it’s worth thinking about regardless of what kind of change you’re contemplating.

Nevertheless you may be hesitating.

Firstly remember what the self help gurus say about having it all.

Jump

Secondly close your eyes and jump!

Final Analysis

In the final analysis I wanted to live an unorthodox lifestyle.

To sum up in order to achieve that…

I had to let it all go.

Wow

All things considered I never expected people to say wow…

You have it all.

But I kind of do.

Worth It?

With this in mind I didn’t really understand what I was giving up when I jumped.

But I do now.

And it was worth it.

Regrets?

In fact every now and then I might have a little bit of regret.

Balanced against what my life would have been like.

New Dimension

I’m glad I chose a new dimension.

Collective-Consciousness-Real-Or-Not-Bob Davis Podcast 1074

Is The Collective Consciousness Real Or Not?

Firstly do you think if something bad happens in the world we all feel it? Let’s talk about it in Collective-Consciousness-Real-Or-Not-Bob Davis Podcast 1074.

Secondly is the collective consciousness real?

Conscious Versus Unconscious

Most importantly Carl Jung discovered something he called the Collective UNCONSCIOUS in the early 20th century.

Controversial Discovery

In fact ever since then it’s been controversial.

One Hundred Year Debate

That is to say people have been debating the inner workings of the mind since Jung’s ground breaking discovery.

What Is The Collective Unconscious?

But what’s significant now are proliferating ideas about what the collective unconscious is and exactly what it does. Not to mention the idea that somehow it meant a collective CONSCIOUSNESS which it did not.

Carl Jung

Certainly there are a lot of videos and books about what Jung said.

Or what he ‘meant’.

And many incorrect or blatantly false quotes attributed to Jung.

However there’s no substitute for actually reading Jung.

Psychology Of The Unconscious

Especially his first major book The Psychology Of The Unconscious.

Let’s Say You’ve Been Isolated

Furthermore someone isolated for a few weeks somewhere is unlikely to be aware of anything happens outside of his surroundings despite the so called Collective Consciousness.

Psychic Internet

In short The Collective Unconscious was never a psychic Internet.

And never intended to be taken as such.

Making A Buck With Fairy Tales

Yet a lot of people are making a buck telling people the collective consciousness is in fact a human version of the Internet.

It’s simply a phrase for shared concepts.

Finally the reader might wonder why this is important.

Superstitions

Because of the so called collective we believe things that have never been proven.

In fact, superstitions.

Bad Decisions

That is to say our superstitions can lead us to make bad decisions individually and collectively.

Universal To Humanity

To sum up Carl Jung discovered what might be referred to as a universal human operating system.

Access Is Limited

However by definition we don’t have conscious access to it.

And I am not sure we want to.

Difficult Times

In conclusion we’re living through extraordinary and difficult times.

Thinking Clearly Required

Above all we need to be able to think clearly.

Fireside Election Update-2018 Races Tighten-Bob Davis Podcast 769

Is the media is setting America up for another surprise on election night 2018? Learn more in Fireside Election Update-2018 Races Tighten-Bob Davis Podcast 769.

A Podcast Series On The Elections

I did a series of nine podcasts examining most of the toss up elections for 2018. To hear them go here. These days it amazes me that a lowly local podcaster can conduct an analysis envisioning what media jackals will talk about in the future. In fact that is what has happened.

Blue Wave Theory Challenged

Especially relevant are several house and senate contests which were supposed to be part of the ‘blue wave theory’. Moreover what seemed like a win in a walk for democrats have now become hotly contested challenges. Find out why in Fireside Election Update-2018 Races Tighten-Bob Davis Podcast 769.

In addition I’ll tell you how I did that series on the toss ups and how you can do the same thing.

They Were Always Close Elections

I have said all along that these elections were going to be close. Now major news organizations like CBS, the New York Times, Fox News and even Politico are suggesting republicans could win the midterms. What happened? Find out in Fireside Election Update-2018 Races Tighten-Bob Davis Podcast 769.

Non Partisan Analysis

Finally my podcasts on the midterm elections have been non partisan. That is, I don’t pick sides and I don’t make predictions. Because the media is so committed to predicting the future, it is missing some key stories.

Talk About Issues and Concerns Fireside

What about so called Pivot Counties? Will an improving employment and economic picture in Ohio, Wisconsin, Texas and Florida influence votes? What about traditional voting patterns in midterms? What about traditional advantages for the democratic party? All that and more in Fireside Election Update-2018 Races Tighten-Bob Davis Podcast 769.
