The journey to find an alternative
way was inspired by what he saw and experienced in the workplace.
The initial journey to find an alternative way started as stated in
the discussion “The
Conscious (Elective) Journey into Creativity”: Given what he had
come to know about creativity, he set out to see if he could find an
alternative way to live in the world to resolve many of the
workplace issues he was experiencing and were unresolved after many
different organizational attempts. ... The question was, “Was there
an alternative way to live life such that there was overall improved
workplace efforts in all areas and greater personal satisfaction in
life for the individual?” The author chose to look for such a path
through improved creativity.
The author was puzzled by the number of unhappy and unfulfilled
“successful” individuals he was meeting in life. He was puzzled by
the number of attempts at management to improve the overall safety,
health, quality and/or morale of the workplace and failed. He was
confuses as to
why
managers were making what appeared to be seemingly fact less based
decisions. The Laboratory Integration Prioritization System has
proven that. He felt there had to be an alternative way to view
life, view the organization and experience Creation. He felt there
must be something more to life that what was being taught. He felt
there must be an alternative way that would make life more
satisfying in all ways.
As was stated in “A
Foolish Thing” shortly after he set the intention to embody
unconditional love, he was inspired to look to see if there was not
something he was missing about the assumptions he made about the
Universe.
He knew from his past experience, if something was not working
as you expect, look at your assumptions.
At the time, the journey to look for an alternative way to live life
appeared totally independent from the intention he set to become or
embody unconditional love. The author did not initially see them in
any way connected and they existed separately for quite some time.
The author also saw this journey to find an alternative way totally
different and unrelated to the
Critical Mass of Enlightenment Experiment. He saw the journey to
explore and alternative way to live life more focused on
organization creativity and creating a different work environment.
He felt there needed to be an alternative way in the work place to
address the root issues he was seeing. The Critical Mass of
Enlightenment experiment was more of a curiosity he attempted in his
non work time.
The author had explored what seem liked all the conventional
solutions offered by the management “guru’s,” management
philosophies, creativity theories and creativity approaches and came
up lacking in a solution/approach. He then had the intuitive insight
that he should look into what people called the “unseen” energy of
Creation more typically associated with
mysticism and see if it has anything to offer. His logic was
simple. Having been trained as energy physicist, he routine never
saw the energy with which he worked. He already knew how to work
with unseen energy. He did it all his life. He just needed to the
proper instrument for the energy within which he wanted to work
He thought back to a
long held idea about calibrating the human body. Although the
concept was not yet really refined in his mind, he knew we possess
an
internal compass. He routinely talked about the heart’s desire
and the need to access the heart’s desire. He realized the
heart’s desire was a source of our passion and that the
workplace needed to somehow access the heart’s desire of an
individual if they were going to optimum performance from the
individual. That was what employee motivation and team building was
all about.
He wondered if there were not unseen influences causing managers to
make some of the seemingly fact less decisions they were making. He
again began to wonder exactly how the body itself could be used to
sense the unseen energy of Creation and to subsequently catalyze the
heart’s desire. Since psychics perceive the unseen, he chose to
start his exploration for an alternative way by talking to some
psychics to see what they see in the unseen realm. He wanted to see
what they understood and perceived about the unseen energy of
Creation.
As child, the society in which he was raised forbid contact with
psychics and every effort was made to not encourage that type and
kind of thinking. However, he never really considered what psychics
saw. Yet, he always had some interest in the paranormal and even
considered studying it in college for a brief moment. Although he
had previous exposure to spiritual traditions and how they managed
the unseen energy. He never saw spirituality or individuals with
psychic ability as relevant to creativity. He had many experiences
with spiritual teachers and guides about the unseen. He now wanted
to explore what the secular world said about such unseen things and
to see if it had any relevance to what the was trying to accomplish
in the workplace.
What the author didn’t know nor understand at the time was he moving
to a turning point that was reached in the
Ultimate Accident. In essence this choice to explore the unseen
energy of Creation was the beginning to move from his
professional path and the way he was taught to view and to live
his life to his
mystical path. His interest in trying to understand what
psychics saw was only his way of taking that first step toward
recalibrating his own internal compass.
What he discovered surprised him. It surprised him in two ways. One
was an immediate surprise. The second only came in hindsight.
The immediate surprise was the way the psychics talked to him. They
talked to him in two ways. First, almost all the psychics with whom
he chose to work talked about the path for his life. It was as
thought they were reading a blue print. As he began to raise his
mystical path to a conscious path, he realized he could use his
own life to see the filters the different psychics were using. That
is, they were all looking at the same energy unfolding, namely, the
author. He realized that there was a path for his life. He was not
always consciously aware of the path but he could feel it. He could
begin to see where psychics were looking on the path and how they
were interpreting it. He could then compare their observations. What
they described both reflected where they were looking and how they
were focused and how they were interpreting and biasing the energy
they experienced.
When the author began to realize there was a deep
undercurrent for his life and there was what could be called a
destiny to his life, he began to wonder about
free will. He began to wonder exactly where did his choices in
life lie. The answer he found lied in what is symbolized in the
heart - our creative spirit and the flow of
creative life energy that sustains us. In time he came to see
and understand, the alternative way to life is to follow what is
symbolized in the heart rather than the mind. Yet, as a conscious
creator, there is third choice and it is to
dance between heart and mind.
The second way they psychics talked to him, which was also
surprising, was that they would use the collective pronouns. They
would refer to “we” or “us.” They would talk to the author as though
he was a practicing psychic. Initially he did not understand why
they did that. In time he came to realized what he took for granted
was a psychic ability to most individuals.
The author came to realize, his ability to know things and observe
things were not a common ability among most individuals. What he
found was that what was psychic in him was never separate from what
others would call normal thinking. Only in time did he being to
understand what he was trying to communicate could not be seen by
many. Only in time did he begin to understand to talk to many
individuals, he had to separate out what most consider normal
thinking from what he knew. To address what was not considered
normal thinking, he tried to present what he knew and understood
through physics or analogies of nature and examples from his own
life or the lives of others. He knew what he possessed was not
anything special. We all have what individuals call “psychic”
abilities. It is only when have not been taught to recognize and use
the abilities inherent within our ability. We are much like Lion Cub
and Eaglet presented in the two stories discussed in “The
Human Condition as Seen From the Creativity Perspective.”
The second surprise the author encountered in looking for an
alternative way that was only realized in hindsight was that the
author discovered the alternative way to live life within twenty
four hours of his decision to step and act to find it. However, he
only realized that in hindsight several years later near the end of
the journey as to what happened. Why he missed it was quite simply
that his mind did not have the
minimum set of requisite experiences to understand exactly what
he did and how he did it. But then, if he had recognized it when it
happened, the journey would not have been documented in what it has
been documented and available in the Releasing Your Unlimited
Creativity materials.
It is hoped that you can become wise from
lessons learned in the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity. It
is hoped you can find an alternative way to live life that provides
a inner satisfaction that never runs dry no matter what is happening
in your external world in a faster, easier and gentler way than
would have otherwise been possible without this material.
One of the direct results of looking for this alternative way is the
Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity Technology and the
application web sites. A discussion of how this alternative way
was used in creating these materials is discussed in the topic, “Some
results of the journey to find an alternative way.”
