Rule 81:
Let humor be
you secret weapon and power No. 1
A smiling tongue and a well turned humorous reply is the
cheapest, the least offensive and although strongest weapons
you may use. It is mot a matter of learning jokes. It is a
matter of 1) showing joy and 2) using humor and wit to
explain, to suggest, to defend, to ask, to comment. And
remember the grook of the Danish architect and philosopher
Piet Hein: The one who considers sadness just sad and joy
just joyful, will understand both badful. (This is our
private translation).
Try Robert Holden: Laughter
is the Best Medicine and also Allen Klein: The
Healing Power of Humor. Both are mostly treating the
inner values and power of humor.
Rule 82:
Use spare time
for mental work
You may certainly need rest and quiet time. But instead
of putting lots of entertainment into the brain, occupying
your "hardisk" space, you may harvest from finding joy and
pleasure in solving mental problems. The ability to stay
mental alert and make logical and creative bridges, using
your inherent knowledge, independent of any outside source,
may help you in many connections. The German saying Ubung
macht Meister - training makes the champion - also
applies to mental power. It helps you maintain the rich
knowledge you already have and to exercise your thinking
abilities. Nobody needs to know.
Rule 83:
Use your sleep
for powerful dreaming
A sound sleep is valuable. A sleep which helps you to
find solutions on tasks which are not considered bothering
may be more. Patricia Garfield has written on this topic in
the book Creative Dreaming. You have to prepare for the task
before going to sleep. But remember: No negative input. You
need a piece of paper and a pen during the morning care, to
take care of the ideas being downloaded.
Rule 84: Coming!
Rule 85: Coming!
Rule 86: Coming!
Rule 87: Coming!
Rule 88: Coming!
Rule 89:
Enjoy sex in a
stable partnership
Research has shown that couples making love more than
twice a week at the average, will stay younger longer.
Certainly a matter for everybody wanting to be powerful
until the End. This is not a reading issue. But we will
certainly look for more advice and perhaps also an
explanation. It may have something with endorphins to do.
Ask David Week at the Royal Edinburg Hospital if you meet
him. In the meantime you may try Paul Coleman: The
30 Secrets of Happily Married Couples.
Rule 90:
Consider a
pistol and a smile
According to a saying, you will achieve more with a
pistol and a smile, than with just a pistol. Anybody can
handle a smile. But only a few know to handle a pistol.. If
you want to have an introduction to this area, try The
Basics of Pistol Shooting from NRA. It is well written.
But less technical and more psychological is Bill Clede
The
Practical Pistol Manual - How to Use a Handgun for Self
Defense. If you are technically interested, you should
try Patrick Sweeney Gunsmithing
- Pistols and Revolvers. By the way, our current
favorites are Walther
TPH .22 and Glock
17.
The Six Laws of Work
- A man must drive his energy, not be
driven by it.
- A man must be master of his hours and
days, not their servant.
- The way to push things through to a
finish effectively must be learned.
- A man must earnestly
want.
- Never permit failure to become a
habit.
- Learn to adjust yourself to the
conditions you have to endure, but make a point of trying
to alter or correct conditions so that they are most
favorable to you.
