I'M STUCK WITH ME?

This week my daughter's gotomedia company was hired to do a project with Sam Altman's OpenAI company. Today I'm listening to Deepak Chopra suggest we are nothing. but. zeros and ones - maybe "'1 - one' is divine?".

This Rabbit works to not subscribe to any particular podcaster so I can listen to various ideas. I like conversations and not lectures. I try to stay away from the current news.

I am on a new path of being alone with myself since the love of my life passed seven years ago - it's a "bear". Sam and I set a purpose of passing on our Japanese Heritage Values to future generations and I feel good about what has been accomplished. I’m past most of my loneliness issues!

If my body is like a computer, is it time to buy a new computer? Or, if I am “stuck with me”, what kind of program am I running? Biologically, we are a totally new set of cells every seven to ten years. Now my question is: “What kind of program am I passing on and can it be changed??? Or do I want to change it?”

According to Arthur Brooks, Harvard professor, we are currently; 50% heredity, 25% our first seven to nine years of growing up tape-recordings and 25% the choices we make from memory and social/educational influences. Dr. Jim Doty says our body generates six to ten million energy impulses every second to run all the body functions. We are only conscious of 50 - 100 of these. I am deciding what I can change in my personal world, with being more deliberate with my few manageable thoughts.

The average secretary can type 60 words per minute. The average speech is 120 words per minute. According to Dale Carnegie, stories with an "INCIDENT" is vital to get a reader/listener’s attention. The average attention span without another incident is five minutes or 500 words.

For more than 30 years, I’ve gathered, edited (several times daily) and shared 500 of these words once a month with OMOIDE friends and for 434 weeks, I’ve blogged 500 words on my Goto-Health blog connections. It’s fulfilling!

Podcasters suggest the importance of good health, meditation of sorts, gratitude and connection practices. Steven Pinker, at Harvard, and Tyler Cowen, at George Mason U, teach writing as a vital practice for change and the influences we can personally contribute to our world. Starting with conversations about my heritage, verbal sharing and then writing; is highly recommended.

The mantra/prayer I'm sharing for myself and with those whom I’m connecting is: DO IT BADLY!
