alright brethren, about to go deep :)
1.)Ask a specific question with details that relate to your subject matter. Try and be creative as possible within the boundaries of context.
question: What specific next steps (and/or overarching approach) I should take to maximize the positive impact I can have on the world?
background (because my question can't get much more specific but the context leading up to why i am asking it is):
--after years in a far left-brained state of learning as much as possible to succeed in a very materialistic industry, I had a 'click'... about 3 and a half years ago, I suddenly looked up to my wife across the room and said "I don't know what this means right now and can't really explain it, but I know it's important: I just removed time."...
Having had been in my industry for a while, i had started to just 'get it'... learned how to learn so to speak, and picked up more and more subject matters faster and faster jumping from development/programming of which i had no experience, to business analyst/ecommerce and biz process consultant, to SEO and Paid Search, to digital marketing solution manager, then analytics director and now client partner in digital strategy/analytics....
They were different enough skills in terms of spanning from the 'deep subject matter expertise' to 'data analysis/trends' to more team building and client-facing and strategy stuff that through work alone i understood how seemingly unrelated subjects interconnected....
But with that time removal 'click'.... i saw the 'patterns' become evident. And that they extended through literally all things and all time, from our habits to history repeating; from predictive modeling and the stock market to art and music; from the relative distance in notes to the relative distance of the stars -- how notes can come together to make chords and stars a constellation... and similarly we are a collection of notes in our own chord, or our cells are the stars that make up our constellation.
And thus began a journey of, 3.5 years later, thinking significantly differently. It was a journey which sincerely gave me many gifts and even greater challenges, and then more gifts in return. I developed an empathy that almost crippled on my morning drive to the city during rush hour.... it was horrible, until i learned how to manage it AND reset my priorities and redefined happiness to what seems so logical now...
Though there were many phases in between that and now - the end point is that before "something" emerged to co-create "nothing", which co-created polarity --> then relativity/etc. /etc... there was wholeness, and the only happiness we will have in the end is our ability to do what we can to leave the world more whole than we do more broken.
And thus, what I refer to as "the spiritual point of singularity" --- happiness is found, in the end, by putting the puzzle before our individual pieces in it.... by finding your happiness by contributing to the happiness of others... i.e. when selflessness and selfishness become one and the same, and we are whole again.
I apologize for the book-long background, but I am trying to do this justice because it is very sincere, and may influence what I do for the rest of my life beginning tomorrow.
2.)Pick 3 numbers between 1 and 78.
9 23 32
(the numbers i was thinking were 7/11/33, then 3/5/7 -- but all had preconceived and already had meaning... so i typed randomly and added a space to 923 so it worked <78)
3.)Do your best to amplify/think about that question until I have the time to translate your cards; also, think about the answer to your question before I give it to you.
--- yessir, as i wrote the backdrop and numbers... including good will and discernment of truth for the reader :)
Again, apologize for the detail - originally wasn't planning on doing this, but since this was one of many things i just completely wrote off when i thought i was ooh so smart, figured it was fitting and potentially poetic if it then leads to me shaping the rest of my life from here on out.
Thanks!
