Legacy



As someone who has died already, twice, it shouldn’t be too surprising to know that I’m certain that a third death is in my future.  And, that leaving a lasting legacy is not far behind my concern of an imminent death.  I say imminent because, there are no guarantees that I’ll be alive at the end of this day?  And, time is limited as I haven’t heard of anyone recently living past the age of around 115?  Therefore, I can only assume than that my time left here is very narrow and that no time should be wasted in accomplishing my purpose.
In one hundred years from now who will remember you were even here?  If you are remembered, what will they remember you for? Will your life be summed up as being mediocre at best, extremely bad, or for having created a positive change for mankind?  These are difficult if not shocking questions for most to digest, and then most will just push these thoughts deep down into the subconscious hopefully to be forgotten.  Few are afforded the luxury of passing into oblivion, and if you were to have died like I have, you would understand the weight of what I’m stating.  But, be certain of this, you will die!
We all have special gifts we bring with us into this existence, and you may or may not be aware of what your gift or gifts are?  What is important is that you find out what your gift(s) is and share it with others.  If your gift is love, or a smile, take it where people appreciate and need that gift.  If it is the ability to attract money, share that money while you’re still alive and where you’d like to see it spent. Because, after you die your money will be used in ways you couldn’t even imagine, and probably would not approve of.  If you’re a leader, lead.  Don’t complain about the job others in charge are doing especially if you know you can do a better job!  Lead by example and others will naturally follow you.  Take risks and stretch yourself mind body and soul.  Having a gift and not sharing it is like having a secret that can save the lives of those you love, and taking that secret to the grave?
Legacy, it’s a big concept! But, once you’re aware that you will die, one day, for some sooner than later, then your legacy carries an even greater impact.  I’m not judging anyone; I’m just raising the awareness of others as to what is lasting in this existence, and into the next.  Even though we spend our entire lives avoiding pain and seeking pleasure, the greatest joy (pleasure), comes through knowing you’ve helped someone else make their life just a little easier, if only for just a few lasting moments.

Why do people commit suicide?

Sara Leatherman in Iraq in 2006. A back injury forced her to leave the military in 2009. She also suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder. Leatherman was 24 when she hanged herself in her grandmother’s shower in 2010. Why do People Commit Suicide? In the field of psychology there is currently a massive gap between what is being taught, applied and propagated, and the new solutions available for mental disorders.   In order to see the answers you seek, you must first ask the right questions! Why is not as important as HOW! Built into the making of each and every human on the planet is an innate characteristic called the survival instinct, which has only one purpose, protect life! Or, keep you safe at all costs. The survival instinct has three hierarchical threat levels it has been programmed to be aware of; 1) the Soul, 2) the Body, and 3) the Mind. With the highest level of threat being, when the SOUL is in danger. There is only one way anyone can co

The Psychopath If you haven’t met a psychopath yet eventually you will, as they make up about 4% of the world population.   Again, people are not born this way! People become psychopathic through learned behavior.   A psychopath is created through a conditioned process that can be one or all inclusive; visual, physical, verbal or mental abuse. Recently, after becoming more public with my findings in treating mental illness, and promoting Nu-Rekall® systems, I attracted the attention of a psychopathic individual, but there is a more modern term for the psychopath today, ‘Internet Troll’. If you are in the business of psychology for any period of time you will eventually attract a psychopath. I normally would just ignore this individual but, he has made some outrageous claims utilizing his vivid imagination to fill in gaps in my published work to draw attention to him in an attempt to appear more intelligent than he is (one of the goals of a psychopath). In order
