Communication, Fascination and the Future

I was thrilled and inspired by a video I watched on Gary Vaynerchuk's site last night. So I decided to add some thoughts of my own today. Summary: Do something you love. Communication counts. Braille the future; our technology is evolving so fast, if you're not looking for what's coming you're going to get left behind. You can see the video I'm responding to here: http://garyvaynerchuk.com/post/355082157/drawing-lines-in-the-sand-wayyyyyy-to-many-of-you

Defining Health

This is my inaugural post to FrankLipman.com. In it I address one of the fundamental problems underlying health and illness which is the fact that very few people have defined what health actually means to them. You see, for most people, health is simply the absence of illness. But that's why so many people are sick, overweight, depressed and generally dissatisfied. True health - in all areas of your life - follows from a well-defined experience of health. The better your definition is (and I ...

Attention To Detail!

And yes, in this post I compare raising children to training dogs.

The Journey Begins

Today's post is really a beginning. I'm a neurohacker at heart and by profession. I design behavioral software. That means I create media designed to "install" beliefs and behaviors into people just like you would install a new app onto your computer. I enjoy it. I'm good at it. And I believe that one day soon it will change the world in wonderful ways. However, what's most important to me is that I use what I know to raise Miles, my little boy, into someone who is happy and healthy. Someone w...

Teaching My Son to Lucid Dream

As an astronaut of consciousness I had to raise my son Miles as a lucid dreamer. I started with no particular agenda or expectations when he was about three and a half. That was three years ago. Today Miles is a natural. He thinks about and experiences dreaming in a way I've never experienced before. For him, waking up in his dreams is just a matter of course. That's simply how dreaming goes. It was only recently that I realized that he can go lucid at will. Today he woke me up with new detail...

Making Miracles: A Quick Guide to Shaping Your K...

I was sick and I didn’t want to get up. In fact, all I wanted was a little love and a lot of sleep. But the love wasn’t coming. Mary had been self-raised in the school of, “I don’t believe in being sick, so I don’t get sick”. To her, my fever was a choice - one she was not going to support.During the course of our two-year relationship, I think I got sick once more. I was in the best health of my life. Being with Mary was phenomenal for my well-being because, with her, sickness was always a ch...

What Do You Want - The Most Important Question W...

Remember Patty Hearst? She was a socialite heiress, captured by the Symbionese Liberation Army, and rapidly brainwashed into becoming a bank robber. What was rarely, if ever, mentioned, is that the techniques used to affect that radical transformation began with her captors establishing themselves in parental roles.The most important question any of us can ask ourselves is this: Who are we brainwashing our children to become? Because whether you’re doing it on purpose or not, you’re doing it.

Why I Only Trust The Selfish

I think Mother Theresa was selfish. I don’t mean that in a bad way, I mean that Mother Theresa knew that, for her, helping other people made life worth living. I trust that kind of selfishness - it’s rooted in truth. Most people don’t know what Mother Theresa knew. They enter relationships to “get something” without ever admitting their true motivation. And so there is something false that comes through. An anxiety that they might be found out, either by the other person or by themselves!It’s ...
