Re-Humanization - A Renewed Commitment to Each Other - The Hollies..."He Ain't Heavy - He's My Brother"

Consider this post to be a slight change of pace. Sometimes a diversion is necessary. --DC

When I was a boy, this song would bring tears to my eyes. I did not fully comprehend the profound implications of the simple lyrics -- I didn't fully appreciate the metaphor. Yet I knew I was listening to a parayer, a lesson, a declaration of unconditional love, and I was moved to the core.

I'll bet this song by the Hollies ("He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother") opened a great many hearts, made people aware of the spiritual ties that bind us, and initiated a great number of charitable acts of kindness. The message is profound. It means that we are all part of a Human Family, and that we cannot harden ourselves against the cries of the suffering, abandon those who need us, or divorce ourselves from the essence of our Humanity.

This song, over the years, has come to define the greatest qualities of Humanity...if fact, perhaps the very definition of Humanity...to me. The further we move from its spirit, the harder and colder life becomes. The more selfish and unfulfilled we become. The more prone we are to being abusers and tolerators or abuse.

We need to Re-Humanize. Please take some quiet time to listen to this song and permit it to commandeer your weary conscience and take you to a world that could be, if we chose to make it so.

Songs, poetry, stories -- the are the highest part of our Humanity speaking through us, metaphorically, to keep our Humanity alive, and to re-awaken it when it has curled up into a frightened ball in a dark corner of our soul.

Listen and feel. Encourage others to do the same. Let us Re-Humanize.

--Douglas Castle

Focus and Attention - Two Different Skills

Focus And Attention - Two Different Skills

Dear Brainstrainers:

Focus and Attention are two different skills which operate together to make us function (i.e., solve problems) at our best.

Focus is the ability to narrow the sensorial scope and concentrate it on a particular thing, without being distracted by another.

Attention is the temporal retention of focus, i.e., how long you can maintain your focus.

Both skills are important, and can use a bit of sharpening from time to time.

Lumosity has a wonderful exercise for strengthening both of these important abilities. The exercise is also a great deal of fun. Click on the link below to engage your mind in a wonderful exercise. Do you like irony? --- If you are stressed, the greatest way to depressurize, re-energize and re-invigorate yourself is through distraction/ diversion; and the best distraction/ diversion (of course), is a firm focus on some unrelated but entertaining and engaging task.

Oh...almost forgot...the link...

Train Your Brain - BRAINTENANCE Revisits Yahoo!

Dear Fellow (and Lady) Cranial Conquerors:

Quite by accident (fortuitously, surrendipitously, auspiciously...), I stumbled upon some brain-training fun and games whilst glancing (indifferently and snobbishly) over Yahoo!

Here's a wonderful link to make you think:

This is Merely a Test.

Not to be overly paranoic, but have you ever stopped to think that when some government experts in a position of authority tell you, "This is merely a test," that perhaps it is not a test at all...but a real situation where your life is actually on the line -- you're performing without a net, but in order to minimize the possibility of mass panic and utter chaos, they are just "saying that" to comfort you.

It's like those law enforcement dramas, where the guy's patrol partner has been riddled with machinegun fire, and its leaking blood from every part of his body, and his partner, stoopin over him is saying, "Just relax and keep breathing Tony! Hang on. Stay with me. Help is coming. You're gonna make it. C'mon...Tony!" Only seconds later, Tony's head rolls to the side, his lifeless eyes reminding you of a three-day old trout on ice in a seafood store.

Fortunately, this is only a test. Would I lie to you?-

What Percentage Of Your Time Do You Spend Thinking About Money? - TNNWC MINI-SURVEY #9

Cousin Ruprecht always says: "I like surveys. They're fun." Sadly, he is still institutionalized, despite a notable improvement in his table manners and exceptionally high marks regarding his personal sanitation habits. (sigh). But I digress...

TNNWC MINI-SURVEY #9 OPENS!

$$$...?

 

TNNWC MINI-SURVEY #9: Thinking About Money...

The survey question is a very simple one but has implications which dramatically affect every single one of us, and the quality of our lives:
Q: WHAT PERCENTAGE OF YOUR WAKING TIME (ON THE AVERAGE) DO YOU SPEND THINKING ABOUT/ WORRYING ABOUT COVERING YOUR LIVING EXPENSES AND PAYING BILLS?

Give it some serious thought before you select one answer from the choices below. Include any of those times when you may be consumed with worries about college tuition, refinancing your home mortgage, outliving your retirement funds, and the like -- in other words, any time that you are distracted by thoughts of your financial obligations.

The polls for this survey will close at midnight, Eastern Time, on November 20th, 2010.

To access the survey, click on:

https://ciof.wufoo.com/forms/tnnwc-minisurvey-9-thinking-about-money/

Aim HIGH. Target LARGE. Think BIG. - Douglas Castle

Dear Friends, Colleagues and Readers:

What I am about to say may sound trite; but, believe me, it is actually a nugget of great wisdom embedded within a seemingly harmless (and toothless) old saying. I've simply changed a few of the words (it's my blog, and I can do that, so there...). Read it, print it out, and read it over and over again. Keep it constantly in mind -- let it motivate and shape your every single decision These are words to put on the wallpaper of your computer, your cellular phone, or on a small piece of paper that you keep in your wallet to take out and look at several times daily. I'm not kidding.

"Aim HIGH. Target LARGE. Think BIG. The people who can help you the most are looking upwards, not downwards. These people don't look down at their shoes -- they look upward toward the stars...and that's where YOU MUST BE in order to be noticed by them."

Faithfully,

Douglas Castle
