Saw this post on Facebook last Friday and wanted to share it with you straight away, even though I am nearly 6 months ahead on articles for my Tips newsletter. Just this one tip could immeasurably improve your life and the lives of those around you.

A friend posted: Years ago I learned something from Brené Brown that I still use every single day:

When you get home to your spouse/kids/dog etc..
Before you open the door
Put a smile on your face!

It doesn’t matter how your day went. Or what you’re doing next. Or if you’re starving.

For 30 seconds, at least pretend that you’re elated to see them.

Make them feel like you were looking forward to getting back home.

After all, they’re your favorite people in the whole world. I hope.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “That seems like a cheesy, tiny thing, man. Hardly an earth-shattering revelation.”

But your #attitude sets the tone for the rest of the evening within 15 seconds of walking in the door.

So really, it’s not tiny at all. It’s a huge deal.

Because you come home every day. And the things you do every day grind on you.

Jordan Peterson says if you can fix 25 little things like “coming home,” you will have an extraordinary life.

Taking your family to Disneyland is insignificant.

Your kid’s expensive birthday party will be forgotten within weeks.

Coming home?

That’s your whole life. Fix it.

Start today.

The inmates are running the asylum.
Speaking lies as truths,
Promoting perversions as normal.
Accepting bribes.
Tolerating corruption.
Siphoning billions from public coffers.
Enriching themselves at our expense.
Well past time we got more constructive, more causative, more active, more communicative and more effective. And thicker skinned as the criminals HATE to be exposed and will decry the exposers.

Spread the truth so when the time comes there are enough people informed and courageous enough to not be slaves.

Friend of mine posted this as a comment. I thought it worth sharing more broadly.

There is a simple set of economic facts that I realized that are most easily understood by these questions:
1) To your knowledge, is there an actual shortage of materials from which to make things? (Not is it available in your local store) NO;
2) Is there a shortage of people who are willing to produce things that other people want or need? NO;
3) Is there a shortage of people who are willing to exchange their production in order to have the production of someone else? NO.

Well, that folks, is economics 101.

There is no problem with the economy. There is a problem with the monetary system. And there has been created a problem with people being able or willing to work, and this has been done through the money system so that the money system intentionally collapses in order to implement a new exchange system controlled by the very people who engineered the collapse.

Well, that’s a bit strange since the purpose of money is supposed to be, “to facilitate and expedite the exchanging of production”. And yet here it is being used for exactly the opposite result.

“Schools train people to be ignorant, with style. They give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus. American schools do not equip you to deal with things like logic; they don’t give you the criteria by which to judge between good and bad in any medium or format, and they prepare you to be a usable victim for the military-industrial complex that needs manpower.”

Carbon dioxide has been draining away over the ages and a recent recovery to 410ppm may not be enough. Long-term decline could hit 150ppm once the warm Holocene ends. It fell to 180ppm only 10K yrs ago. A collapse in CO2 to 150ppm would end life. This is the real peril - not global warming.

Despite record-breaking rainfall and floods this year, eastern Australian landscapes are facing hydration issues. Slowing the flow of water on farms can help.

The condition of our farmlands affects our lives in the most primal ways, from the water we drink, to our ability to cope with flood, fire and drought.

Professor Stephen Dovers, chair of the science advisory committee at the Mulloon Institute, an organisation that develops and shares regenerative farming techniques, believes the state of farmland depends heavily on one issue: how well the land holds onto water.

“Rain is an income,” Dovers says. And too often, rather than banking that resource, we leave it to “flow out the drain”.

If you think that a small number of billionaires controlling the world is a conspiracy theory... then you’re probably one of the 80% of people who get their news from media outlets controlled by a small group of billionaires who control the world.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has come out with a guide for how we are all to speak and write. This can be found on the website titled, “Preferred Terms for Select Population Groups & Communities.” It is clear that this list is being read and distributed broadly - from medical institutions, hospitals, scientific communications, doctor’s offices, schools and universities, as well as other US Government agencies and institutes.

According to the CDC, we are no longer to use the word “smoker,” as it might offend those who smoke.

Yet, here are images from the CDC website - using the word “smoker”. In fact, they even have a registered trademark for the phase: Tips From Former Smokers®

So, please folks - don’t do like the CDC. The proper term is “people who smoke.” We wouldn’t want to offend smokers…

The post 2030 Backcasting: Catherine Austin Fitts and Others Perform Future Exercise For “Desirable Future” (Video) appeared first on The Washington Standard.

In a forum similar to those who want to control and destroy humanity, Catherine Austin Fitts and guests set forward an exercise in the future that promotes the exact opposite. In her 2030 backcasting, Fitts invites several guests together for ideas on what they see as a “desirable future” in just a few years.

The backcasting participants include:

Catherine Austin Fitts (Moderator)
Thomas H. Meyer (Spiritual Science)
Jennifer Walters (Health)
Junious Ricardo Stanton (Personal Transformation)
Corey Lynn (Solutions; Vaccine Passports)
Elze van Hamelen (Synthetic Food; Space)
Pete Kennedy (Food)
Carolyn Betts (Legal, Legislation)
Vanessa Biard-Schaeffer (Europe)
Ulrike Granögger (Science)

To launch the new year—a year that promises to be consequential in untold ways—the Solari Report offers subscribers and our public audience its first-ever backcasting.

As defined by Wikipedia, backcasting is “a planning method that starts with defining a desirable future and then works backwards to identify policies and programs that will connect that specified future to the present.”

For our purposes, the year is 2030, and this is our “desirable future”: In 2030, freedom reigns planetwide, with the push for central control having failed miserably. Local currencies are flourishing, while lack of use slowly marginalizes the few Central Bank, Digital Currency (CBDC)s that were implemented. The World Economic Forum is bankrupt, and a depressed Son of a Nazi, Klaus Schwab has retreated to his home in the Alps. Family and community prosperity is growing throughout the developed and emerging markets as economies decentralize—and as government enforcement, regulation, intervention, and taxation decrease. In short, there is much to celebrate.

In this backcasting exercise, our celebrants gather to share stories about what happened in 2023—in areas ranging from health to science to personal transformation—that turned the tide and made the difference in the powerful pivot to freedom.

Enjoy!

Not at all a follower of Royalty but a friend sent this link and I had seen some criticism of Harry so I thought to watch it. Interesting.

Scott Ritter was the chief weapons inspector in Iraq. Here he gives a great interview providing a summary of what Putin did to try to prevent war in the Ukraine, what the US did to create it, the present scene and some insights into the future with a snippet on the CIA and South American drug cartels.

Until next time,
dream big dreams,
plan out how to achieve them,
be continually executing your plans,
enlist people to your causes,
travel and/or read widely, preferably both,
all the while observing what you observe
rather than thinking what you are told to think,
think well of your fellow man,
take time to help your fellow man,
he sorely needs it and it will help you too,
eat food that is good for your body,
exercise your body,
take time to destress,
and do the important things
that make a difference -
they are rarely the urgent ones!
