What are YOU worth?

 

A man is only worth as much as he has in financial resources.  Meaning, a man with zero dollars only gets to fuck and marry an ugly woman.  A man with billions of dollars has his pick of any woman he choses. 

A woman is only worth her level of beauty.  Ugly women generally are forced to fuck and marry poor men.  Beautiful women, no matter the other qualities she possesses, have their choice among the most successful and wealthy men.

Why did I just make those points? Because I, along with all the other readers missed them as the points that were really worth discussion after reading one of the most popular blogs on myspace. (Don't get me started about the sheer stupidity of just about every last one of the most popular blogs on myspace!)  In this blog, the male author states that his test for deciding whether or not he should marry a woman is whether or not he would marry her if he had a gazillion dollars.  He displays a picture of a man sitting by a pool surrounded by beautiful women in bikinis.  He talks about the amount of quality pussy he would get if he were that guy. 

In the beginning of the blog the author expresses his frustration that he just can't find a woman that "has it all".  He wants a woman that can stimulate him mentally as well as physically.  But, most importantly physically. 

All of the responses, including my own, (I told him that if he wanted a woman to stimulate his mind, he should try developing his own mind past adolescence) missed the real issue here.  The issue worth discussion is not whether this guy is right or wrong - good or bad - the issue is  that the way we judge the value of  the humanity of both genders is totally fucked up!

We have emasculated men and reduced them to a dollar bill and a sports car.  We have stripped women of their real value and reduced them to the size of their bra cup and how pretty her face.  No wonder people in Africa and other places still starve to death and of diseases that we have erradicated long ago.  The value of a human being has been reduced to a dollar bill or a bra cup size.  Those people have no value because they have neither. 

I feel really sick right now with those facts directly before my eyes.  I have known all along that even though I possess many other wonderful qualities, my beauty has always been my most powerful tool.  As a beautiful woman I know that I enjoy privileges that other women who are not as beautiful dont.  I could name a million bold faced examples of this happening. 

It has always bothered me that my level of education or intelligence was not the strongest source of power for me.   But then I think, hey wait a minute, those things aren't what make me valuable as a human being either.  What does determine the value of a person? 

If we behaved like we didn't have our heads up our asses, what qualities would we use to measure a person's worth?  Should we measure a person's worth with qualities at all? Are human beings innately valuable in their own right not one more valuable than the other?  And, if one is not more valuable than the other, what would the world look like and how would we attain implementation of that vision?

Could it be the contribution one makes to society?  How would we measure the value of the contribution?  Is someone that impacts the masses more valuable than someone who touches the heart of one person? 

If we want to evolve past the stupidity of the way we are behaving now - a way that is grossly, disgustingly, inhumane - we must have a different way of behaving to propose.  These questions and many more have to be answered.  We need new eyes and a new perspective for solving this dilemma.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and ideas.  We have to collaborate on issues of this nature in order to come up with the most innovative answers.

 "No excellent soul is exempt from a mixture of madness"

Madness – a word that produces such a negative connotation of such a beautiful thing. My friend was told by a psychiatrist recently that she is a woman with normal thought process, but abnormal thought content. I wish to dispel the myths and stigma that surround madness. I prefer to refer to her thought content as innovative, creative, unique, erotic….get the idea?

"Conventional opinion is the ruin of our souls."

"The Man" thinks its abnormal, but a liberated woman has different eyes for the same set of facts. "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."

I thank God everyday for the madness mixture I have! Who the hell would want to have normal thought content? How boring, simple, unintelligent, narrow minded, and just plain vanilla. I love vanilla – its my favorite scent – so sweet. But, it lacks the complexity, richness, and variations that chocolate possesses. 

I am sure glad that Gandhi, Nelson Mandella, Oprah, Einstein, and a whole lot of other people had abnormal thought content. Make your unique contribution by thinking outside the box.

* Think Outside The Box: Fluid Intelligence And The Ability To Question Your Own Beliefs - http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Robin-Good-Latest-News/~3/186232985/think_outside_the_box_fluid.htm

The ability to change, to inspire others and to seed ideas that will contribute to make our planet a better place, are very close to those reading these pages. Sharewood and my idea of helping independent publishers stems from the very desire to help others, helping them become their own bosses and agents of change.

A few of you may already know that the key reason they are now here is to change agents ushering the rest of us in a new paradigm for humanity.

I think that change starts from each one of us and from the simple actions and choices we make daily.

To change the world you have got to start from yourself. If you can't or you are unwilling to question and change your own assumptions and beliefs, then you should not expect the rest of the world to be so open to your passionate crusades.

Fluid intelligence has little to do with IQ or "book" intelligence. Fluid intelligence is "the ability to step outside of our beliefs and consider information which does not fit into our previously accepted view of reality."

Given the level of social, cultural and media conditioning we have all unconsciously received, this is a information-computing trait of your brain that would be worth cultivating for mere strategic reasons. If you can't step outside your own computing box or you can't question the very assumptions that determine the way your perceive life all around you, how can you ever expect to make change happen?

Fluid intelligence is all about not getting stuck with one set of ideas for life. Maintaining in good health the flexibility of your reasoning and mental computing system, today is as critical as periodically changing the oil in your car engine.

Questioning reality, being critical of mainstream media reporting and news, asking deeper and uncomfortable questions about the truth why of some of our major problems can only lead you to know more and to be able to cope with more.

Taking reality for granted, as a given objective "thing" sitting out there, is the equivalent if signing now your testament to life and your surrender to realize yourself, as a true participant, in the wonderful game of life going on on this planet.

Cultivating, understanding and nurturing open-mindedness is the greatest safeguard to the very threats and possible disasters we are running into head on at this very time. The enemy is us.

Intro by Robin Good


** Fluid Intelligenceby Fred Burks and the WantToKnow Team

In exploring personal and global transformation, it is important to talk about the concept of fluid intelligence in relation to the ability to grow and expand our awareness.

Fluid intelligence has little to do with IQ or "book" intelligence.

It is rather the ability to step outside of our beliefs and consider information which does not fit into our previously accepted view of reality.

Your deepest beliefs and conceptions about life and the world are to some degree conditioned by your childhood experiences, your education, mass media, and various other external influences.

An individual's level of fluid intelligence can be determined based on the degree to which he or she is able to let go of previously held conceptions on encountering reliable information or experiences which show these conceptions to be mistaken or overly simplistic.

At the other end of the spectrum from fluid intelligence is static intelligence.

When those with a high degree of static intelligence encounter information which seriously questions the established paradigm, they attempt to discredit the new information using laws and principles previously agreed upon under the old paradigm. If they fail at this, the new information is then deemed not worthy of study and discarded. At worst, the new evidence is actively attacked as being irrational or unscientific, even though it may be easily verified.

Scientists with a high degree of fluid intelligence who are attracted to study matters outside the current paradigm are often labeled kooks or wacky by those operating with static intelligence. Yet history shows us that it is often these "kooky" scientists who go on to make the most astonishing discoveries which pave the way for entire new areas of study which were once considered nonsense. Einstein, Galileo, and Pasteur were all ridiculed at times by adherents to the old paradigm of their day for their amazing discoveries which ushered in entire new branches of knowledge.

All of us are sometimes resistant to letting go of old beliefs, while at other times we are excited to explore new ways of thinking and being.

Static intelligence and fluid intelligence are but two ends of a continuum, and each of us may shift to varying points on that continuum over time.

In recent years, many key pioneers have been successful in operating within the modern scientific paradigm with a very high degree of fluid intelligence. These courageous individuals have used accepted scientific principles and careful research to challenge old paradigm beliefs.

Below are a few shining examples of this pioneering group:

- Stanford University's neuropsychologist Karl Pribram and his in-depth studies of the holographic qualities of consciousness
- University of Connecticut Psychologist Kenneth Ring who completed breakthrough studies of near-death experiences.
- Dr. Hal Puthoff and Russell Targ (see his excellent paper and web site) of Stanford Research Institute in their copious studies of remote viewing and nonlocality.
- UCLA's Valerie Hunt in her systematic studies of human energy fields and measurable psychic phenomena.
- The pioneering cell biology research of Dr. Bruce Lipton showing that contrary to popular belief genes do not determine life, but rather our perception of the environment controls gene activity.
- Princeton's PEAR Laboratory (now closed) which established the ability of consciousness to interact with physical matter.
- Robert Monroe, founder of the Monroe Institute which teaches methods to achieve out of body experiences and remote viewing. (See his landmark book Far Journeys.)

The many pioneers of quantum physics who are finding that for deeper understanding of our world, it may be impossible to separate the physical world from consciousness.

Two classics which challenge static scientific paradigms using reliable, verifiable research from hundreds of scientific studies are the books The Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot and The Field by Lynne McTaggart.

The paradigm-busting film What the Bleep Do We Know!? covers similar territory in a very fun way.

I highly recommend these engaging books and film for those who are interested in exploring the work of scientists who are promoting greater awareness of ourselves and our universe, and helping people to develop more fluidity in consciousness.

In the old paradigm, static intelligence generally does not acknowledge the existence of a non-physical consciousness apart from a brain.

In the new paradigm, quantum physics is increasingly acknowledging that consciousness may be the most critical factor in what determines reality.

Static intelligence places high priority on stability and security.

Fluid intelligence welcomes change and even chaos as potential vehicles for personal and global spiritual growth.
