The self-expression curve

Often it's easier to conform to the expectations of your peers at work and elsewhere in your social orbit:

This is a mistake when taken too far, though, as you'll miss attracting the people who are most on your wavelength. The range of response to any signal you're sending out, whether by your attitude, writing, singing, anything ... will be distributed something like this:

Negative                                       Meh                         Positive/Resonant

The fat part in the middle will be the majority of the response: indifference, slightly negative to the left and slightly positive to the right. At the extremes will be the people on the left who just hate your signals and the right who just resonate to them.

In certain circumstances you may want to restrict your real signal to a select audience:

Debris outside the offices of Charlie Hebdo after the 2011 attack on their office

But mostly you shouldn't have to worry about the people who don't like what you're putting out: they'll mostly ignore you ... just what you want.

So if you just conform and don't send any signal out that you think might offend anybody, all you get is meh. If you're willing to say something of what you really are, you'll get this wider range and you can gather up people to love and resonate with, like this:

About this blog

I went to see this psychic named Jan back in the 1980's and talked with her about this book I had been thinking about writing:

Me: I have this book I want to write in mind ...
Jan: That feels wonderful ... going to take a long time, though

Yes; here we are, 30 years later!

Some notes on what I believe and plan to write about here:

• Psychic phenomena (i.e. extrasensory perception) exist and some people (my wife included!) can see beyond present reality and/or predict the future
• This implies that the standard model of physics is incomplete or at least is being interpreted incorrectly by most scientists
• Mind (for example, the placebo effect) is also a determining factor in medical results
• In general I want to give what I perceive to be the "Angel's perspective" on human activity:

Comments are welcome, especially from any angels who happen to be reading this!
