Power vs. Force: The Hidden Determinants of Human Behaviour

Product Information

This is important because every decision we make and every action we take is driven by our individual level of consciousness. If top performer are imbued with the belief that their excellence isn’t a personal accomplishment, but a gift belonging to all of mankind as a demonstration of man’s potential, they’ll go strong and remain so through any event. Jeremy went to the laundry room in the huge apartment complex he lived in, and someone had left a book in there. It caught his eye. Shortly after this my phone rang. It was Jeremy, and what he said was basically “OMG, I found this crazy book in the laundry room, and it’s blowing my mind! YOU HAVE TO READ THIS!” The Olympic spirit resides within the hearth of every man and woman. Great athletes can, by example, awaken awareness of that principle in all people.

p. 176) "It is easy to forget that the initial appeal of communism was idealistic humanitarianism, as was that of the union movement in the United States, until it became a refuge of petty politicians." As for the rest of the book, you can safely skim and choose the selected chapters which might give you some value, eg. surviving success. He goes on to claim that skepticism and atheism and calibrate under 200, and by his own words, things that calibrate under 200 are "negative". So for a book that makes a big point about people's freedom, clearly their right to doubt when searching for the truth is demeaned. Of course, if I was the author, this is exactly what I'd want because it'd be the only way anyone would swallow the compounded silliness of the ideas of this book - strictly if you had no discernment whatsoever. We always want more, he thought, we always take our past successes for granted and assume they but point the way to future triumphs. But the universe does not have our own best interests at heart, and to assume for a moment that it does, ever did or ever might is to make the most calamitous and hubristic of mistakes.” Sir David Ramon Hawkins, M.D, Ph.D. was a nationally renowned psychiatrist, physician, researcher, spiritual teacher and lecturer.

Neutrality is 250, Willingness is 310, Acceptance is 350, Reason is 400, Love is 500. (The love referred to is “unconditional, unchanging, and permanent”.) Joy is 540, Peace is 600 and, as stated, Enlightenment is 700-1000. Well, one of the most mind-bending things that Hawkins’ work revealed is that our consciousness is not just the result of the chemicals or electrical impulses in our brains. And what’s more, the quality of consciousness can be objectively measured. True success enlivens and supports the spirit. The truly successful realize that success comes from within and therefore have power. Those who believe that success and happiness and joy come from without are powerless From Chomsky you learn that the current view of labor unions in America as a bad thing is a relatively recent phenomenon, a product of violent repression and effective propaganda in the past. To Hawkins, a product of this, they are as bad as communism, a mere "refuge for petty politicians."

Have you ever noticed that some people seem to be totally crazy? Yeah, I’ve noticed that too. What about the way people find themselves in the same sorts of scenarios or relationships over and over again?

Some things that we typically consider to be work are not work in the scientific sense of the term. Let’s consider a few examples. Think about why each of the following statements is true. From low to high, the levels of consciousness are: shame, guilt, apathy, grief, fear, desire, anger, pride, courage, neutrality, willingness, acceptance, reason, love, joy, peace, enlightenment. Power just is! When we connect with that power, we stand as if in sunshine. When we use force, we step outside that light. The result in the end is something completely different than what we thought the force would do. Force incites the powers of darkness and the results are within that sphere.

F is the force of gravity, which is equal to the weight of the coconut, d is the distance the nut falls, m is the mass of the earth, v 1 is the velocity with which it hits the beach, and v 2 is the initial velocity. I experienced a life-changing bit of serendipity in 2004 because my big brother was doing laundry. This mundane chore that was happening 1,000 miles away from me changed my life. Read chapter 4. Levels of human consciousness could give you some food for thought and help you in understanding human motivations. It could be very useful in life.On examination we will see that power arises from meaning. It has to do with motive and it has to do with principle. Power is always associated with that which supports the significance of life itself and dignifies- ennobles. Force must always be justified, whereas power requires no justification. Force is associated with the partial, power with the whole. I especially appreciate [the] research and presentation on the attractor patterns of business . . .”
