Communication and the Immune System (I.e. COVID-19)

Quote of the Day: (bookmark this page)

Step 1: Select a number from 1 - 100.
Step 2: Scroll down to your number.
Step 3: Read your quote of the day.

Think of your selected quote as your all-knowing intuitive self prompting your mind to address something (an incomplete) —in support of restoring/maintaining your integrity.  Let's further intend that your selection for today is not accidental.
Our tutorials make a distinction between communicating and talking. We define communication by its result; "I know communication has taken place when I've manifested my stated intention and all concerned feel good upon completion." —Kerry (Leadership-Relationship Communication-Skills Coach)  Note: Permission to quote is always granted via email.

It's understood that if one knows a subject they also know that all they know can't be shared (recreated for another) through written communication. These quotes are cookies for a mind intent on knowing. I.e. All tutorials and books (including these quotes) are written by people en route to knowing, who presently, like myself, only know a lot about the subject. Teachers and coaches just remind us of what we know. —Kerry

  1. How we communicate, our verbal, non-verbal, physical, and psychic communication-skills, cause (yes cause) others to withhold significant thoughts from us; we cause others to withhold growth-producing feedback, thoughts that have been serving as barriers to the experience of love.

  2. As one approaches communication mastery they begin to address their addictions to withholding and to blaming, to assigning outside causes, mechanical malfunctions, "accidents," for failures; they begin to examine other possibilities, specifically, the correlation between ones integrity and outcomes.

  3. Imagine how unconscious one must be to not know that your date, your partner, or your child, is withholding a significant thought from you?

  4. If you read a quote and see that it applies to you/your partner and you hide or "forget" to talk about it with them, for fear of . . . , then you are dooming the both of you to a life with little or no joy. A significant thought withheld from a loved one is premeditated abuse.

  5. Understanding responsibility is as far from knowing as is not knowing. Once one becomes clear about responsibility, when they replace their definition with the actual definition, they begin to experience manifesting their stated intentions.

  6. Virtually all divorces began on the very first date when both brought their addictions to deception (withholding) and to blaming into the relationship, when both simultaneously chose to withhold a deal-breaking thought from the other. With 44+ years of coaching couples I have not found any exceptions to this phenomenon.

  7. When a student experiences an overweight teacher, one who daily thwarts the wisdom of their own former teachers of biology, nutrition, and physical education, it's a non-verbal communication—that what's being taught doesn't work. Such hypocrisy doesn't inspire health. Guess what percentage of the nation's teachers and health-care professionals are unhealthfully overweight? Google says 43%. This percentage reveals the leadership-skills of most high school principals.

  8. A "leader" inspires health. Someone stuck in the "process-of-becoming-a-leader" is dragging around life's incompletes into each present-day interaction; they are run by fear. When a school has a principal that has completed Leadership Training, his/her teachers know that a report "Due on Fridays" means it's due on Friday, no excuses, no reasons. Such a leader models for teachers how to produce the same results with their student's homework.

  9. The partner who fearfully refuses to insist upon couple's therapy after causing the first physical abuse becomes cause for all successive abuses. During coaching a "victim" is always able to recall what they did (or did not do) to cause the abuse—there are no exceptions.

  10. Cause for an abusive incident is most always hidden from someone addicted to blame, to making others wrong, like an unacknowledged alcoholic, they simply have no choice; abuse is a programmed knee-jerk reaction to an incomplete.

  11. One sure way to complete your addiction to automatic yelling, to your knee-jerk angry abusive reactions, is to acknowledge soonest to the recipient (without an apology), that you know it didn't feel good—done consistently you will soon find yourself having choices.

  12. There are no innocent bystanders; the "silent" one, the one that appears to be the "nice" friend/relative, is unconsciously, non-verbally, intending the friction—most always they are unaware of the effects of their non-verbal communications, specifically, their unconscious intentions.

  13. In a primary relationship in which one or both partners have become unhealthfully overweight both are withholding an equal number of significant thoughts from the other—there are no exceptions to this phenomenon. Communication disappears a supposedly unintended problem whereas talking causes the problem to persist.

  14. The parent, ostensibly the "good" one, who non-verbally supports child abuse, (condescensions, yelling, hitting, spanking) so as to survive financially, to keep the family together, to look better, nicer, more loving, more forgiving, less abusive, more righteous (always for reasons, usually fear) could be considered evil; history refers to such people as the "I didn't know 'good' Germans."

  15. When you discover your partner has deceived you it's a wake-up call, a reminder that you began the deceit by withholding a thought from them—it's most always a "deal-breaking" thought on or before the very first date—there are no exceptions to this entanglement phenomenon. It's not just that you deceived them, the far more damage, the compounding consequences of the perpetration, is that you have yet to verbally acknowledge the deceit to him/her.

  16. All dissatisfactions with sex between couples are a consequence of both partners withholding the same number of thoughts from the other—fear, uncomfortableness and embarrassment are the most common reasons. Sharing your first deceit allows your mind to recall and acknowledged all of life's perpetrations; a clearing process restores ones integrity, it creates space to experience intercourse.

  17. A misbehaving failing student is letting everyone know that he/she is not in-communication with anyone—the student has not been acknowledged for one or more good deeds or perpetrations—the adults around the student have become stuck doing their imitation of communication with him/her.

  18. A sure way to shut down your child, to drive them to drugs and deceitful (behind your back) teen sex, is to treat their mother/father abusively without cleaning up each instance in front of your child.

  19. Children believe (or intuit) that they are the cause for the abuse between parents; the child knows that they (the child) do not inspire love—the invalidation creates a condition of mediocrity and hopelessness.

  20. Conscious parents teach their child how to communicate upsets, what to say when they see/hear something that doesn't feel good, and, most importantly, whom to talk with (the specific person) if their (the child's) feedback to the parents doesn't work.

  21. If you give unsolicited advice to someone unconsciously intent on failing, someone whose karmic path—a life-time of unacknowledged perpetrations, requires that they fail—someone whose integrity is out—you'll fail as an advice-giver but succeed as an enabler— "unsolicited" meaning, they did not specifically, verbally, ask you for advice.

  22. If, as a teacher, you have a failing student, there is something you have not verbally communicated to him/her and, something you have not communicated verbally to his/her parents. Conversely, the student is withholding one or more significant thoughts from you and his/her parents. Again, zero exceptions to this phenomenon.

  23. Virtually all veterans who have elicited a diagnosis of PTSD have one or more significant thoughts they are withholding from someone of significance; one can't be certain as to the source of a problem until they have restored their integrity—to include acknowledging all of life's perpetrations (see Sample Clearing).
     
  24. If you believe that another couldn't possibly change then the same holds true for you.

  25. The abuse parents inflict on each other is equally abusive to their child—unless the abuse is verbally acknowledged in front of the child. For example: Father to mother, in front of their child: "I get that what I just said didn't feel good.

  26. One way to cause your partner to produce more unexpected/less-than-desirable outcomes is for you to continue communicating as you have been; your present non-verbal leadership communication-skills have "supported" his/her present condition and outcomes. Thoughts affect outcomes.

  27. Under the reasons is the truth of what the cheating was about—reasons serve as barriers to acknowledging the truth, one's cause for an outcome. Clue: Cons always attract equally skilled cons.

  28. When someone lies to you about the cause of the failure of a prior relationship of theirs, and you remain silent, it ensures that there will be little or no teary-eyed joy in your relationship with them. I.e. Date says: "My ex was abusive." "She cheated on me." "She divorced me." —all blame statements, for which there will be undesirable consequences—for the enabling you, and more for your new trash-talking-blaming friend.
     
  29. If you don't like your partner's ex, never having met them, then you have attracted and enabled a blaming badmouther. Blame addicts attract and mirror blamers.

  30. Whenever an employee is performing poorly a manager will always (yes always) find a lie, an omission, or a purposeful error, on the employee's Job Application Form.
     
  31. When a job interviewer doesn't do complete work, when he/she doesn't catch the incompletes (the purposeful lies, omissions, & illegibilities) on a Job Application Form, the applicant intuitively knows that the organization will accept typical high-school performance.

  32. If you suspect your partner is deceiving you it's your integrity at work prompting you to verbally acknowledge that you began the deceit (usually on the first date); there are no exceptions to this phenomenon—couples have no choice other than to mirror each other's integrity.
     
  33. Big box managers (Sears, Target, Walmart, Home Depot, etc.) unconsciously train their "Associates" to not look for customers to help, to look down or away or busy when walking around the store; we know this by the results these managers produce, it reveals that stocking shelves is more important than service.

  34. Employees have no choice other than to mirror the integrity of their manager; it's an entanglement phenomenon. For example: A manager who is perpetrating deceptions (at home or work) will attract employees who are equally deceptive.

  35. If you have been hired—even though you know you are deceiving/abusing someone—you know that you have conned your new employer into believing that you're an honest person. You cannot respect someone whom you can con. You will eventually find yourself trash-talking the boss behind his/her back.

  36. "Addiction to abuse—to abusing or to being abused—is as debilitating as any drug." —Dr. Drew. An abuse addict will abuse their partner, or set up their partner to abuse them. Both always blame the other.

  37. If you are perpetrating a deception on someone (spouse/partner/boss/government) you are negatively affecting the outcomes of everyone around you. You have become stuck in a joyless position referred to as a covert saboteur.

  38. It's unethical and abusive to use your home-grown leadership-communication skills to set up another to abuse you, to goad them into abusing you—to possibly having them incarcerated.

  39. With spousal abuse there are no bullies or victims—only consenting sparring partners, both lying and blaming the other for causing the abuse; when asked who started the fight both will point to the other.

  40. Withholders (those who withhold significant thoughts from their partner) cause their partner to withhold their own thoughts of choice from them—withholders always attract withholders.

  41. The spouse of a Mafia Don, or a Navy SEAL Team member, is responsible for (cause for) the results and the effects their spouses have on others throughout the community/world. Silence condones (causes) more of the same. I.e. SEAL Team families do not allow infidelity, not because it's good or right to be faithful but because deceit always affects outcomes
     
  42. Arrogance is thinking you can create and sustain the experience of love and happiness without cleaning up your childhood perpetrations (abuses, lies, and deceits), such arrogance begs to be humbled. Read Conversations in Support of Health.

  43. An unacknowledged lie to the question, "Did you brush your teeth?" continues to have undesirable consequences throughout life until it is verbally acknowledged. Acknowledging (admitting) a lie completes the experience and its karmic consequences. The memory remains but feeling badly about lying, and its automatic negative karmic effects, disappears.

  44. Just because you can't remember a childhood lie or perpetration doesn't mean it's still not affecting your outcomes—to this very day. To recall and acknowledge unconscious (hidden) perpetrations, to restore and maintain your integrity, to complete your incompletes, do The [free] Clearing Process —it helps you remember "forgotten" perpetrations.

  45. A spouse who causes their partner to cheat on them (to deceive them) will always find that they (the spouse) had deceived a parent, and have yet to verbally acknowledge the specific deceit to the parent. I.e. "Did you brush your teeth?

  46. Children lie and grass is green. Making grass wrong, punishing it for being green, is not very masterful; what's worse, punishing a child for lying causes (yes causes) deceptions and more lying—evidenced by the fact that the majority of teens con each other into deceiving both sets of parents so as to have sex.

  47. Children need to experience that they inspire love between parents—when a child fails it wreaks havoc with their growth-compass, their confidence, even their immune system (their gut's biome); their leadership-communication skills are missing the successes that would empower them in positively affecting all relationships and outcomes—for life.

  48. A parent resorts to spanking their child when the parent has lost his/her ability to produce a desired behavior lovingly through verbal communication, when the parent has lapsed into doing an imitation of communication with his/her partner.

  49. The partner of a spanker always enables the abuse for survival reasons; the "good" parent most always manipulates the child (usually non-verbally) into thinking less of the spanker rather than protecting the child from the abuse ever again.

  50. If you are engaged and withholding a deceit from your parents or your betrothed, then your relationship will be about experiencing the consequences of deceit; furthermore, it condemns your partner to a life with little or no joy—definitely not a gift of love.
     
  51. All divorced couples brought their addictions to deception, to withholding thoughts of choice, to blaming, into the relationship. "Choice" meaning, I'll withhold thoughts I want to keep from you, and, I non-verbally, grant you permission to withhold significant thoughts from me.

  52. A child who is failing in school reveals that there is a breakdown in communication at home, his/her parents are out-integrity; both parents are withholding significant thoughts from each other and their child; the child is withholding thoughts from both parents—for fear of ..... There are no exceptions to this phenomenon.

  53. Anyone who seduces a married leader, manager, officer, politician, CEO, etc., is a covert saboteur; he/she is setting up life to discover the correlation between one's personal integrity and outcomes. His/her imagined/professed love of the leader is a lie. I.e. A truly loving responsible person, a person of integrity, would not risk the possible consequences of seducing a married leader knowing it will negatively affect the leader's results. I.e. General Petraeus (Afghanistan), his wife and his girlfriend—each individually responsible for the present outcome.

  54. The partner who fails to insist upon acknowledging/clearing the very first abusive interaction—through to mutual satisfaction—becomes cause for all successive abuses.

  55. If your subordinates are not happy then your integrity is out; employees have no choice other than to mirror the integrity of their leader.

  56. We are always manifesting our intentions; most of the time we are unconscious and unaware of our intentions and so we act surprised or get upset when we see what our leadership-communication skills have produced.

  57. Until one cleans up life's perpetrations all communication breakdowns, to include abuses, broken agreements, or "accidents," are a consequence of either one's integrity or his/her communication-skills. Once one's integrity has been restored then a broken agreement/failed goal is solely a communication problem, not a communication and/or an integrity problem.

  58. If, as a close friend, you attend a friend's wedding knowing there is deception between the bride and the groom, or between either of them and another or their parents, then you are condoning (supporting) deception, in which case the couple's relationship is doomed to mediocrity—in part, because friendship with you does not inspire honesty.

  59. With unpleasant divorces, both partners simultaneously withheld his/her thought of choice at the very beginning. There are no exceptions to this phenomenon. "Thought of choice" means, I'll withhold any thought I want, for a reason, which automatically causes you (grants you permission) to withhold whatever thought you want—say for instance, "... a high school date had mastered oral sex."
     

  60. Clergy who receive tithes from welfare recipients become responsible (cause) for the undesirable consequences of the donor's continued negative financial karma.

  61. It's impossible for your relationship to grow and expand if you hide your thoughts of choice from your partner (it's called deceit). Your partner may start out being open and honest but after they have spent time with you you will have trained him/her to hide their thoughts of choice from you.

  62. You cannot create an experience of love in a space occupied by deceit.

  63. If you are not experiencing the experience of love with your partner then you are withholding thoughts from him/her and, you are causing him/her to withhold one or more significant thoughts from you.

  64. Virtually no veteran leaves the military acknowledged for all their good and "bad" deeds, consequently, an unacknowledged vet is not whole and complete; they drag remnants of incompletes left over from childhood and the military into each and every civilian conversation affecting all outcomes—for life.

  65. When a disabled veteran is in-communication with a communicologist, a communication-skills coach, the vet is able to recall thoughts having to do with unconscious intentions (including what was going on in the mind, seconds, minutes, hours, days before the wounding "incident") thoughts that previously had not been included in the vet's explanation of what "happened." Such omissions, thoughts, and considerations serve as barriers to healing and to relating the incident responsibly, truthfully, from cause.

  66. Veterans have no choice other than to mirror the collective integrity of the employees of the Veterans Administration. A VA staff member who dragging around unacknowledged perpetrations (a lie, a deceit, a broken financial agreement, or infidelity) into present-day interactions, causes, yes causes, a veteran to lie about ailments—which of course, affects healing.

  67. People with unacknowledged childhood deceptions attract those who are equally addicted to deceiving and to setting it up to be deceived.

  68. All "victims" of infidelity began the deceit by consciously choosing to withhold a significant thought for one or more reasons; for most "victims" it was on the very first date.
     
  69. The love that "happens" at the beginning of a relationship is caused in part by the chemistry of pheromones. Eventually, both partners accumulate thoughts they've withheld from each other; thoughts serve as barriers to the experience of love. The way to create/recreate the experience of joyous love is through open, honest, and spontaneous communication, no significant thoughts withheld. See The [free] Clearing Process < https://comcom121.org/proclearing/index.htm >.

  70. In a relationship in which there is an experience of communication (open, honest, and spontaneous—zero significant thoughts withheld) it is virtually impossible for one partner to have persistent preoccupying thoughts about an attractive neighbor except that those thoughts are verbally shared and therefore nipped in the bud.

  71. Gossip communicated irresponsibly, such as a teacher's negative judgment of a parent (shared in the Teacher's Lounge), produces more-of-the-same less-than-desirable effects.

  72. The difference between an education major and a teacher is that a "teacher" knows when a child is being abused at home—such a child is comparatively shutdown, lacking in confidence, wimpy-acting and submits to peer bullying. A teacher will do what it takes to ensure the child is safe at home.

  73. All deceitful teen sex is a consequence of a breakdown in communication within (and between) both families—there are no exceptions to this phenomenon.

  74. The majority of parents nationwide teach their children to lie and deceive—evidence by the fact that most teens con each other into deceiving both sets of parents so as to have sex. All are ignorant of the compounding negative karma of such deceit.
     
  75. In a marriage it works to communicate, if not up-front, then right now today, "Can we agree that cheating is tantamount to insisting upon a divorce? I will not grant a second chance. Is this absolutely clear?" If your partner senses you are lying, that you will not effect an immediate divorce, they'll get it. In other words, if you lie to them, (if you don't really mean that you will divorce them) you will discover your lie. A fidelity agreement not communicated clearly and verbally like this communicates (implies) that you will tolerate and "forgive" cheating. It also implies that you reserve the option to cheat and that you assume they will give you a second chance. This unconscious implied reserved option is partly why most (sneaky) couples don't include a fidelity agreement in their marriage vows.
     
  76. Senators T. Kennedy (MA), Brooke (MA), Craig (ID), Edwards (NC), Ensign (NV), Vitter (LA), McCain (AZ), Stanley (TN), Baucus (MT), Hart (CO), Packwood (OR), Miller (OH), Cunningham (NC), Souder (IN), Weiner (NY), DesJarlais (TN), McAllister (LA), Clinton (AR), (Farenthold (TX), Trump (NY), Murphy (PA), and their  spouses and mistresses, revealed their ignorance of the correlation between personal integrity and outcomes and goals.

  77. Here's what I recommend be included in a marriage vow: "A measure of my commitment to you is to be faithful. To be unfaithful, to consciously choose to abuse you, would immediately annul this marriage and forfeit my right to sue for custody, alimony, or jointly held possessions."

  78. If you conned another to marry and support you—because you didn't study so as to have a career to fall back on—then you have created disrespect and resentment; at some level your user disrespects him/herself for using you rather than supporting you in being responsible and independent; he/she resents you, in part, because you're not stopping him/her from using you.

  79. If you don't insist that your spouse acknowledge each and every condescension it's most likely you are unconsciously masterminding a divorce; you are addicted to blaming—to collecting withholds and resentments to justify a divorce.
     
  80. If your marriage isn't satisfying it's most likely a consequence of an unacknowledged perpetration—such as conning your partner into marrying you before you confidently brought a full-time backup career into the relationship.

  81. Children are extremely susceptible to the vibrations of the out-integrities of their parents. Not unlike a magnet next to a compass, the child has no choice other than to go off-course. In lay terms, the confusing non-verbal, abusive, vibrations between parents cause a child to lose control of their directions/choices.

  82. A person who is whole and complete simply doesn't attract or date someone stuck in abuse—therefore, to date, to magnetically attract an abuse addict, is to unconsciously intend the abuse to satisfy your own addiction, to get your daily fix of parental-like abuse.

  83. The majority of girls are addicted to being condescended to, therefore, they have no choice other than to attract and marry someone who will treat them as did their parents. Most "good" high school boys report that many girls were attracted to, and susceptible to, the vibrations of the "bad" boys, thereby revealing an unconscious need to be abused.

  84. A person who has the time and energy, coupled with an imagined need for frequent sex, has yet to find his/her purpose in life.
     
  85. To make your partner wrong for wanting or not wanting sex is abusive; it reveals a misunderstanding about your definition of the word responsible.

  86. If your partner is failing in one or more areas of life, if they are opting for unethical or unhealthy choices, then it has to do with your leadership-communication skills, your conscious and unconscious intentions; what will cause them to continue failing is for you to feel badly for having masterminded this result. Instead, acknowledge the effectiveness of your intentions (however unconscious they may have been).

  87. Sex without conscious breathing is rudimentary high school sex; it's as far from true intercourse as talking is from communicating. "Conscious breathing" meaning: To synchronize your breathing (inhalations and exhalations) with your partner's. This intention replaces the usual thoughts, routines and techniques, it allows one to experience amazing subtle sensations. Prerequisite: A couple must communicate openly, honestly, and spontaneously (no significant thoughts withheld). A thought withheld serves as a barrier to experiencing exquisite loving intercourse.

  88. The leadership-communication skills it takes a divorced parent to be a safe space for their child to communicate (to process) their divorce-grief, and, to enroll them in support of the mother or father dating again, are the exact same skills it will take to effect a successful new marriage.

  89. Parents who hypocritically "teach" truth-telling while hiding their own teen-perpetrations from their teen, train their child to be deceptive.
     

  90. Parents who hide their teen-sex and drug experiences from their child cause (yes, cause) their child to deceive them. It's virtually impossible for a child to be as "good" as they believe their parents were as children.

  91. "Victims" of an unfair divorce settlement manufacture all sorts of reasons for the results they produced using their leadership-communication skills—none of which are the truth—they haven't accepted responsibility for masterminding the divorce and its outcome; typically such a partner blames others for their breakdowns in communication. Cons always attract cons.

  92. To experience the experience of love with a date or a new friend first do The [free] Clearing Process. Then invite your friend to do it. After which you both can do The [free] Clearing Process for Couples —such honest intimacy automatically creates an experience of love.

  93. A misbehaving/pouting/failing teen is trying to let his/her parents and teachers know that they all have become stuck doing their imitation of communication, with each other, and with their teen.

  94. The parents of Columbine-type shooters believed they were in-communication with their child; none have publically related the specific early incident, the turning point, after which nothing was the same. I.e. Several years later during an interview one such parent said: "I felt for a very long time that it must've been something I did." The words "felt" and "something" reveal unconsciousness, ignorance and denial. One thinks thoughts and feels feelings.

  95. A parent's job isn't done until they have taught their child to demonstrate an ability to clean a window.

  96. A baby in the womb experiences all the vibrations between his/her parents. The abuse spouses perpetrate on each other during pregnancy is frightening, it needs to be verbally acknowledged to the baby. Babies cry when they are incomplete, therefore a parent must intend that the baby cry so as to communicate the leftover pain. I.e. Father to fetus/baby: "I get that what I just communicated to your mother didn't feel good to you."

  97. The love that exists between most married couples is but a memory of the last "experience" of love; their "love" has become conceptualized. "I know I love her but I haven't experienced it lately." The test? Few or no moments of giggly laughter and joy throughout each day. This memory of love is caused by both simultaneously lapsing into doing their imitation of communication, also called talking; an experience of love is created and recreated via communication.

  98. If sex has become boring or unsatisfying then both (yes, both) partners are withholding an equal number of significant thoughts from the other.

  99. All Me2'ers are stuck in blame; none tell the story from how they caused the incidents(s) (Me2 or I ...).

  100. If you have poor penmanship then you have in fact thwarted the success of your penmanship teacher for which there has been a lifetime of undesirable, ever-compounding, consequences. Not that you're a bad person deserving of failure but that when you need and don't get support for an endeavor of yours you can't be certain if it's about your integrity; if it's about you paying yourself back for thwarting another.

Quotes for teens:
  1. Conning a date into having sex, knowing full well it would upset his/her parents, is as detrimental to one's health as is smoking. Your integrity will set up life for you to get caught (acknowledged) for the perpetration (often with studying and test results or when you get things going well).
     
  2. Supporting a date in deceiving both sets of parents so as to have sex reveals that there are disrespects you have of your parents, your date, and his/her parents, that have not been verbally communicated.
     
  3. Conning a boy into repeatedly begging for sex is unethical. A "No sex" communicated gets gotten and transforms the relationship. A "No" said, but not meant (not communicated), is a lie, for which there are always undesirable consequences (often pregnancy, or later, an unfair blaming divorce settlement).
     
  4. A lie (or deceit between you and your parents) creates undesirable consequences—such as, an "accidental" pregnancy or deceptions later during a marriage.
     
  5. Teens thinking of having sex must share such thoughts with both sets of parents, else the professed love is not love. Love cannot exist in a space occupied by deception and thoughts being withheld.
     
  6. An "accidental" pregnancy is eventually discovered to have been intentional—an unconscious consequence of an out-integrity, a deceit—there are no exceptions.
     
  7. If your date professes to love you and they are supporting you in deceiving both sets of parents so as to have sex, then you can be certain it's not love. Love can't exist in a space occupied by deceit.
     
  8. If you con a boy into impregnating you you'll have revealed your addiction to deceiving others. There are no "accidental" pregnancies.
     
  9. If you have not found, or created, your purpose in life then begin by serving others (uplift each person you meet throughout the day) in so doing you'll add to your own aliveness.
     
  10. If, as a teen, you impregnate a girl you will have revealed, no matter what you believe, that you don't respect her; one doesn't risk the remote possibility of ruining a girl's chances of having a career to fall back on, except that respect is missing.
     
  11. The prerequisite for all teens approaching dating age (before their first date) is to present to his/her parents a written list itemizing all the costs (doctors, hospitals, food, clothing) of raising a child through to age 18, and, who the teen expects will pay for an "accidental" pregnancy. Knowing about or understanding the costs is experientially different than knowing them by writing them down.
     
  12. The prerequisite for all teens approaching driving age is to present to their parents a list of the expenses involved in having and maintaining a vehicle—the cost of the vehicle, its financing & monthly payments, its insurance, the cost for tow trucks, the cost for a smashed fender, the cost to rent a car, and how much one loses when selling a car that's been in an accident (read about responsible lending and borrowing).
     
  13. A girl who can't or won't talk to her parents about certain subjects will attract a partner who has the exact same controlling behaviors as her parents. More accurately, she will, unconsciously, using her leadership-communication skills, attract and manipulate a partner into controlling her and then then blame him/her.
     
  14. A teen always attracts a partner who mirrors the deceit between them and both sets of parents. I.e. A teen who is withholding a significant thought from a parent will attract a date who also deceives his/her parents.
     
  15. Conning a girl into having sex that results in a pregnancy is sexist. It causes the girl to become dependent upon others rather than studying to have a career to fall back on.

  1. Google the word "abuse" and it presently (11/12/22) brings up about 364,000.000 web pages. What's interesting is that no two of the web sites that offer abuse-support or education use or have the same definition of the word abuse. More interestingly, no two teachers in any school, or any two judges in the world, have the same definition of the word abuse (unbelievable, yes?)
     
  2. All the energy and money spent on preventing, eliminating, reducing, or controlling abuse is to no avail until we agree on its definition.
     
  3. As you read About The Spouse Abuse Tutorial you will end up with an expanded definition of the word abuse.
     
  4. A loving person is an enroller who expands their circle of friends automatically, causing all to love each other; someone with a "loving act" is concerned with survival and has but a handful of "friends," whom together, seldom effect a positive significant change in their community.
     
  5. If you are holding a 40 lb. bar of lead and someone offers you a 40 lb. bar of gold you will have to let go of the lead to have the gold. In other words, to have a magnificent relationship you must be willing to let go of an abusive one, else, you reveal a lie. The lie? —you believe you have been intending to have a magnificent abuse-free relationship.
     
  6. All lies and all truths have consequences, even the ones of which you are unaware. Saying/believing you want others to succeed when the results reveal otherwise shows that you have been living a lie. The way out is to tell the truth. To get to the truth you must be willing to start with what appears to be an obvious lie, "I don't see you succeeding, or I don't want you to succeed, because . . ." and see what thought comes up. Most always it's an unconscious withhold.
     
  7. What you call love will not heal/fix another. If you fix a broken dish what you'll have is a fixed broken dish, not at all what you would have chosen. You don't have the skills to "fix" anyone but yourself. No one around you can heal completely until you heal you.
     
  8. Only a person addicted to abusing and to being abused has a personal/intimate relationship with an abusive person; abuse addicts always blame their partner for the abuse.
     
  9. The way to know what your intentions have been is to look at the results you've been producing for yourself and those around you.
     
  10. If you marry a user, someone who didn't apply him/herself in school, and, has not held at least one job for 12-months in a row, then you are a helper; you are enabling a user for which there are undesirable consequences—a user cannot inspire a child to be responsibly independent.
     
  11. The person you marry must have demonstrated a work-skill ability to financially support themselves for 12-months in a row—this, so that they don't have to stay married to you for financial survival.
     
  12. Most people are unaware of the power of their psychic hexes, the unconscious thwarting emanations, their intentions for another/others to fail for various reasons. They lie, pretending they want everyone to succeed yet the results their friends and neighbors are producing prove otherwise.
     
  13. When a teacher withholds a truth a parent needs to hear, the withhold keeps everyone stuck in more of the same.
     
  14. Teachers use and teach an adversarial (blame, fault, right-wrong) communication model (win-lose, pass/fail, succeed by doing better than others), consequently, their graduates use the same model to seduce and attract partners and friends. Not having learned any other way of communicating most couples have no choice other than to use the same adversarial model during the divorce process.
     
  15. A communication model is like water to a fish. Just as a fish can't see water neither can you see air or your communication model, unless—you ask another for feedback. I.e. "What does it feel like to be on the receiving end of my communications?" or, "Do I inspire excellence or mediocrity?" or, the biggie, "What would you change about me?"
     
  16. The way you can tell which communication model you operate from is to look at the results your friends are producing. A positive supportive, mutually satisfying communication model, the one used throughout our tutorials, brings everyone along with you.
     
  17. Communication always results in the experience of love whereas with talking something appears to be missing, or, something, such as a thought being withheld, is in the space.
     
  18. Most couples are unaware that the Adversarial Communication Model they learned in high school is the same model they used to seduced each other which causes (yes causes) an acrimonious divorce. It absolutely guarantees that you and your partner will withhold certain thoughts from each other for strategic/survival reasons.
     
  19. Most people cannot hear/experience verbal abuse/condescension. When they finally become aware, that it's been there all along, it's usually too late. They discover that their addiction included attracting and abusively goading and rewarding an abuser.
     
  20. Managers know that it's much easier to teach an inexperienced but happy person to be a competent employee than it is to teach a skilled but unhappy person to consistently relate with peers and customers from aloha.
     
  21. It's virtually impossible for a responsible CEO to attract and hire an angry, rude, or grouchy employee. Employees always mirror a CEO's integrity, his/her leadership-communication skills.
     
  22. You do not have the leadership-communication skills to teach your loved one how to positively support you; to do so you must first have their permission to change them, to improve them, to make them better, more thoughtful, more loving, compassionate, honest or efficient. Wanting to change someone is not love.
     
  23. All veterans who have elicited a diagnosis of PTSD are withholding one or more significant thoughts from one or more significant others. There are no exceptions to this phenomenon. When the truth is told the problem disappears.
     
  24. For a donation to be significant it must be a significant experience for the donor. Significant, as in, slightly uncomfortable, a bit more than what the mind suggests, something that represents the loving generous supportive self.
