I wrote previously in Cut the Yo-Yo String that one’s subconscious mind acts somewhat like a thermostat. A thermostat keeps a house’s temperature around its setting. When the temperature falls too far, it turns on the heater until the temperature reaches its setting. Or, during the summer months, it will behave similarly with an air [...]

I heard Dr. Paul Jenkins ask the question, “What kind of people get into car accidents?” The answer is, “People who get into cars.” Let’s say that you’re a perfect driver, never violating a single traffic rule. Does that mean you’ll never be involved in an accident? Of course not. The road is full of [...]

Today you get a personal story. Last Friday there was an interesting clash in my head. At the outset of my my cholesterol/diet experiment, I determined specific boundaries for food choices during the test period.

Wayne Dyer is credited with saying, “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Do you remember stereograms? The crazy, abstract-looking patterns of nonsense that have hidden in them a 3D picture if you look at them right? If that doesn’t ring a bell, click here to see [...]
