The 4 P's of Prosperous Living

Living your most prosperous life is not easy or fast. However if you are willing to implement the 4 P's of Prosperous Living it can get easier and take effect more quickly. The process by which this works (and it works all the time if implemented) is contrary to much of the current Self Help and Motivational ideology.

Before we get to the 4 P's let me share some thoughts around creating our reality. There is an order by which all things arise and work. Every moment is a moment of new creation. On and off states, called dualities, is what we experience in all areas of life. The exact resistance to prosperity gives birth to the equal and opposite creation of prosperity.

When we actively seek the resistance and move into it we discover all the growth we need to launch to the next phase of our life. Do you think our moments arise by accident or as an exactly perfect outcome of a series of natural laws? If it was all accidental, none of the laws of physics would make sense, biology would not make sense, everything would be random. The conclusion, therefore, is that there is an underlying order and precision to all things.

The fact that you have not tapped into this underlying order is not your fault. You simply were not taught how to do this or you have not been exposed to these systems. Remove all guilt, shame and blame from your thought framework. Think about it this way:

At one point in your life you did not know how to read or write. Reading and writing did not suddenly appear, your ability to do so was nurtured and learned.

You did not know how to ride a bike until you learned to ride a bike.

You did not know how to communicate via the internet until you learned how to do so.

The great philosophers of our time and the great scientific minds all agree, that there is an energy source of information that always was and always will be. It exists for everyone to tap into and is everywhere. Some call it God, God Force, Universal Mind, Collective Unconsciousness, Universal Spirit, the Zero Point field and on and on. Do not focus on the label, but on the qualities of this energy. All knowing, ever present, all pervading and readily accessible by all.

Am I making this up? Did you know that Harvard Business School and INSEAD (the top European business school) have discovered from research that some of the most effective new business tools for business leaders are meditation and intuition.

So if this is true why do some gain access to this energy to create the life of their dreams while so many suffer? As noted systems expert, Edward Deming discovered through empirical research, - 90% of all failure is caused by running the wrong system.

There is nothing wrong with you. You are not a failure. You are simply running the wrong system. The Good News is that when you change the System, you immediately Change the Results!

Crack the Prosperity Code is all about using systems to connect to our own personal genius and all of the genius that has ever been and will ever be. These systems can help you break the bondage of scarcity and start living your most prosperous life. One of these systems is the 4 Ps of Prosperous Living (there are many more which I share in the 8 week program).

Prosperity is not an outcome, it is something that we attract by the person we become. We become that person by changing the idea of who and what we think we are.

The obstacle is not with the external world. The obstacle is with your recognition of yourself and your world. The way you perceive and interpret yourself and your world is also a system. Change that system, through seeking new truths, and you change your results. Use the 4 Ps to start changing yourself and watch as the world around you changes!



1. Prospera

The word prosperity is derived from the Latin prospera-re, meaning "to render fortunate." The word abundance is derived from the Latin abunda-re, meaning "to overflow". While today we associate all these terms almost exclusively with money and material gain, in their origins all had meanings that addressed quality of life in broader terms. A prosperous life then is one that is overflowing and one where we co-create in a state of ease or peace.

Concepts such as the "Millionaire Mindset" or "Think Like a Millionaire" or "Retire Rich" are really meaningless. Each of us must decide what sum of material wealth is meaningful for our journey. For some a million is relevant and for others it is not. Decide for yourself what prosperity means in all areas of your life, including:

Family, Career, Health, Relationships, Financial, Social and Civic.

Get clear, be detailed and create a blue print of what prosperity means to you. This is your chance to get it all on paper!

Clarity brings order and order brings opportunity. Chaos cannot exist in the presence of order. Be the order that you wish to bring into your life!

2. Purpose

Living on purpose is a process of discovering what you don't want to do with your life as much as it is what you want to do. There are no failures or bad jobs. These were simply experiences you needed to get clear on what you really love doing. Think about the following questions to build your purpose statement.

1. Decide what you value most in life.
2. Decide what you will do to act on your values.
3. Deciding whom you will serve.
4. Writing it down in one sentence that is easily understood.

When you are working through these questions ask yourself "If I had $10 million in a Swiss bank account how would I answer these questions?". The purpose of this is to remove money or making money as a block to living on purpose.

Money always follows purpose! Money is attracted to people on purpose!

When your purpose is greater than yourself or your bank account you open the door to big money. The greater your purpose the greater your ability to attract people, places and events that conspire to help you fulfill your purpose.

3. Passion


When you get clear on what you value most in life, what action you are going to take to put those values into operation, who you are going to serve and you put it down on paper in one or two sentences, you are ready to step into the world of Passion.

Passion is the most powerful contagion in the world. Think about the last time you purchased a product from a passionate individual. Do you remember your energy and enthusiasm going up? Passion sells you more than any slick presentation.

Speak with passion, dress with passion, communicate with passion and watch as employers and clients line up to give you opportunities. Express your purpose with passion and notice how others come to your aid.

Passion cannot be faked. It is either real or rehearsed. Be the passion that you seek and opportunity will come knocking.

Think about someone in your life who lacks passion. Are they fun to be around? Do other people go out of their way to help them? Do opportunities always show up for them? Do you love to be in their presence?

Passion comes from the heart. When you learn to open up your heart and trust in yourself and the world your passion just comes bubbling out naturally and organically. People will want to be in your energy field and they will want to pay you (and pay you really well) for what you do!

4. Pump of the Value

We have now defined what prosperity means to us, we have started to get clear on our purpose and we are living and breathing organic passion. Now how do we increase what we are getting paid or increase our income?

Money is simply a medium of exchange, nothing less and nothing more. We render our services, ideas and effort and in exchange we receive monetary compensation. Contrary to popular opinion you cannot live a prosperous life by focusing on making more money. This is a losing strategy that might produce good short term results but in the end you are building wealth on a house of cards.

Instead, to make more money focus on delivering more value! The greater the value that you provide to a greater number of people, the greater your compensation. In fact I have derived a formula to help you understand this:

Total Compensation = (TV * TL)^(TP*TPS)

Total compensation equals total value times total lives touched raised to the exponent of total purpose times total passion (the formula comes from the accountant in me= :).

This formula was provided to me in deep meditation. I have used it with many clients and have personally witnessed explosive breakthroughs. New careers, new opportunities, and clients doubling and even tripling their earnings.

This master formula requires you to go deep inside and answer some difficult questions before you can apply it. The internal work must be done before it can be expressed externally. Think about how this formula applies to your life today and how you can change to live your most prosperous life.

Play with this information, apply it, work with it and discover why your most prosperous life is already right here, waiting for you to wake up to it.

Prosperous Living is requires you to shift in who you believe you are. In case you have never been told before - You Are a Genius with with Infinite Potential!

道化家庭:青少年教育

前人慈悲

四十多年來「道」已經在臺灣大開普渡,修道的人越來越多,可見臺灣眾生佛緣根基都很深厚,我們秉持師尊師母之宏願,要將「道」深植人心,要將「道」永留人間,一定要由家庭入手,因為家庭是一切的根本,過去我們道場為了培養人才,比較偏重個人的成全,現在我們更要深入家庭,以「家庭」為成全照顧的對象。家庭包括了老、中、青、少,如果一家人無論父母、孩子、孫子都能求道、修道,每個人都能明理,都能守本分,盡責任,齊家修道,這個家庭自然是和樂融融、幸福美滿。所以「道化家庭」就是要以我國文化中最可貴的「孝道」為出發點,做到「父慈子孝、兄友弟恭、夫義婦順」「老者安之、少者懷之」,每個人都能實踐綱常倫理,每個家庭自然都能圓滿幸福,社會能恢復五倫八德之古風,自然也會安祥樂利。聖人有云:「君子之道,造端乎夫婦,及其至也,察乎天地」,又說:「欲治其國者,先其齊家;欲其齊家者,先修其身」,這些話都是告訴我們,修道的根本在個人、在家庭。我們發一崇德要建立一個完整的道場,對老中青少都要照顧,「老吾老以及人之老,幼吾幼以及人之幼」,這樣,我們才能創造一個規模道場,為社會樹立標竿,將師尊母的大德廣佈人間,使老祖師一道同風的「彌勒家園」理想能在人間早日實現。

幾十年來,另一方面也投入很多心力,實際推動道化家庭,例如:第一、在五年教育進修班加入道化家庭課程;第二、設立小天使班、青少年班,奠定青少年人格教育;第三、舉辦親職教育講座;第四、舉辦各種國學育樂營;第五、舉辦大型社會文化講座。這些工作在我們發一崇德道場的努力推動之下,都有了很好的績效。

從十年前崇德文教基金會成立以來,我們道場又成功地走出另一條路來。幾年來,基金會舉辦了許多活動,都受到社會的讚許和肯定,所以在四年前我們得到教育部頒發的社會教育有功績優團體獎。二年前,本人也代表發一崇德接受教育部頒發社會教育有功個人績優獎,這些都證明了我們走進社會,關懷人群的方向是正確的,幾年來,我們和政府機關合作的活動都非常成功,他們對我們有很大的信心,這也表示我們發一崇德有人才,尤其是有關青少年的輔導,我們非常有經驗,不只是我們學界的大專生都很有愛心,更重要的是我們有道念、有理想、有悲願、有大愛,本人認為對於青少年的教育與輔導應注意到幾個原則:

   一.教導青少年自愛自尊

每個人如果對自己了解,認識自己的本性,就能肯定自己的價值,能肯定自己價值的人,消極方面不會違法亂紀、為非作歹,積極方面更能激發自己,,積極進取、奮發向上。所以我們要多教導青少年認識自己,引導他們愛惜自己、肯定自己、尊重自己。

   二.教導青少年關懷他人

一個有愛心的人,一定會是個好人。所以一方面教導青少年懂得自愛,另一方面還要教導他們懂得愛人。在家中能夠孝順父母,友愛兄弟姊妹,在外也會愛護同學朋友,關心他人,體諒別他人,設身處地為他人著想。能夠愛物,懂得惜緣,懂得感恩,珍惜所擁有,常懷感恩之心。

   三.教導青少年守法盡責

社會上常看到青少年犯罪事件,讓人怵目驚心,也讓人痛心,為什們小小年紀就會作出這樣的事呢?追究這原因,恐怕是大家都不信因果、不講因果。固然,講因果如有所偏,易流於迷信,但是如果心中全不信因果,恐怕也會引起社會上更多為非作歹、作姦犯科的事來。因此,我們在教導小孩子,從小就要給他們「善有善報、惡有惡報」的因果觀念,每個人安份守己,各盡本份,不貪求,不妄想,自然不會受到不良引誘而誤入歧途。

四.教導青少年充實生命內涵

最後,我們還要引導青少年認真向學,努力充實自我,有高深的學問或是一技之長,才能立足社會。進一步,再引導他們懂得從生活的層面,提昇到生命的層面,了解人生的真諦,建立正確的人生觀,貢獻自己,服務人群,不斷地提昇自己生命的內涵,創造自己生命的價值,開創一個「靈性的真、修養的善、生命的美」的人生境界。

  至於具體作法如下:

(1)減輕升學壓力,創造健康快樂的成長空間

現代教育的偏差以及父母親過度期望的心態,造成大多數孩子都生活在強大升學壓力下,雖然擁有的是「最多和最好」,但他們不一定快樂,不快樂的孩子,怎們能健康地成長呢?因此,政府教育機關固然要積極改善教育體制,父母也要了解,孩子是一個完整而單獨的個體,今天他會出生在這個家庭,是因為他和父母有緣,但不能因此就說孩子應該完全聽從父母的安排,讓每個孩子依照他的天性本性去發展,不要揠苗助長,就是最好的教育。

  (2)重視德智體群美的均衡,加強情意教育

今天學校教育還有一項問題,就是太重視智育而忽略學生人格的陶冶。智育固然是基礎也是重要的,但絕不能因此而忽略了德育等其他方面的薰陶,孔老夫子也曾說過:「弟子入則孝,出則弟,謹而信,汎愛眾,而親仁,行有餘力,則以學文。」「入則孝,出則弟,僅而信,汎愛眾,而親仁」就是道德教育、人格教育,也是情意教育的內涵。從現代的角度來看,就是要教導學生發展己|己、己|人、己|群、己|天(自然)的和諧關係,這也是全人教育,每個人從認識自己、開發自己、修養自己做起,以五倫八德來應對周遭的人事物,最後能達到儒家思想「身心合一、人我合一、天人合一」的最高境界。

  (3)重視家庭教育,建立良好之親子關係

現代社會型態的轉變,父母親多半都有工作,都市地區內又多是小家庭,長輩又不同住在一起,這種情況,往往會疏忽了家庭教育,以為只要孩子上了學,那就是學校和老師的事,事實上,孩子在學校的言行都是和家庭教育有直接的關連。所以身為父母之人,應特別重視孩子在家中的生活,多陪他們,關懷他們,了解他們,千萬不要以為給予豐富的物質就是愛的表現。此外,孩子一天天身心的轉變和成長,父母親也應該慢慢轉變自己的心態和想法,跟著孩子成長而進步,教育原則不變,教導的方法卻應該隨著孩子的成長而有所變化。小時候,可以用命令式的,長大之後,就要用說理的方式開導他們,尤其青少年正值反抗期,一味的拿出父母親的權威,反而會適得其反,所以父母親也要學會以知心朋友的立場,聆聽他們的傾訴,同理他們的情緒,接納他們的反應。有了良好的親子關係和親子情感,才能有良好的家庭教育。

  (4)身教重於言教,父母師長應從於身教做起

孩子成長階段的可塑性最強,模仿性也最強,孩子從父母師長身上所看到的遠比聽到的還有影響,所以才說「身教重於言教」。像是吸煙、喝酒、打牌、賭博、口出不淨之言等不良行為,多半是從成人世界中直接模仿而來,以身作則,言行相顧,如果言行不一,說一套,做一套,不但無法管教孩子,恐怕更容易讓孩子引起反感,故意去做不該做的事。

崇德讀經教育推廣中心理念

一、建立關懷感恩的中心服務團隊
團隊的組合在於機緣,付出智慧力量的泉源在於願力。我們是一家人應有一體觀,中心團隊成員是一群關係著各道場、各區推動讀經班的服務工作群,只有付出與服務的快樂文化天使。
二、塑造學習型的讀經班文化
教學是一種「工作」,在「讀經班」我們更界定他是「奉獻」與「學習」。「把握每一次學習的機會」「容許實習的嘗試」,不斷引進新知,更珍惜彼此的切磋與經驗的交流,希望在學習成長中,能更成熟的面對人、事、物,力求圓融與圓滿成功。
三、落實服務支援制度
讀經班因學生的需要而成立,教師工作群因輔助學生的學習而存在,中心更以提高讀經效能為目標,而佛堂如書院、學堂提供方便有效的教學環境,讓教學更安心、用心、與專心,如此更需要有服務支援的完善制度,這是讀經教育永續經營成長的行事準則。
四、道場內外人力資源整合
道場資源有限而社區資源無窮,讀經班所在社區之人力、物力、資源是值得開發的,如何透過資源運用與推廣管道的建立,進而作資源整合與供需配對,是讀經班發展的重要工作,因此我們要以熱誠與智慧展現「崇德讀經班」的成果,讓更多的資源能因我們的努力而匯集,致力生命關懷與廣結善緣的推廣。
五、建立全面品質管理體系
有高品質的績效,才能顯現成長的生命力,適度的要求才能克服人的潛在惰性,激發更多潛能的展現,因此,建立計劃、執行、考核、追蹤與效益分析,以期達到人盡其才、物盡其用是中心經營管理的目標。

六、強化中心與各道場的互動機制
  道場因良性互動產生倍數力量,因溝通不良造成力量消減,中心成為所有讀經班人才的教育成長搖籃。社區是服務的客戶群,是廣結善緣的道場,因此各道場所一致的目標,均在提升讀經班文教形象及成員的成長內涵。佛堂(書院化)成為社區的精神文化加油站,由內而外與社會人士組成推動文化紮根之工作,而各道場間建主良好的互動機制是必要的。
七、中心發展的研究與互相交流
人因有執行理想而成就,讀經班有願景才顯生機,在規劃、執行、成果發表的過程中,不斷的廣納各方建議,進而不斷思考、研究、改進、再出發才是一個永續成長的服務團隊,所以透過定期、不定期之培訓與個人自我提升暨各道場之互相交流觀摩,創造永續發展的契機,是教育中心的目標。

MBTI

Personality Type or Psychological Type are terms most commonly associated with the model of personality development created by Isabel Briggs Myers, the author of the world's most widely used personality inventory, the MBTI or Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Myers' and her mother, Katharine Briggs, developed their model and inventory around the ideas and theories of psychologist Carl Jung, a contemporary of Sigmund Freud and a leading exponent of Gestalt personality theory.

Beginning in the early 1940's, Briggs & Myers extended Jung's model with the initial development of the MBTI. They put Jung's concepts into language that could be understood and used by the average person. Isabel Myers' book "Gifts Differing", published posthumously in 1980, provided a comprehensive introduction to the Jung/Myers theory. Myers' book and her philosophy of celebrating human diversity anticipated the workplace diversity movement.

The MBTI is now a registered trademark of Consulting Psychologist Press, Inc. (CPP) who also publishes and distributes the Inventory. The MBTI is available from CPP and its licensees in approximately 20 foreign languages. In addition, alternate versions of the inventory have been scientifically customized and validated for other languages and cultures for which a straight translation of English language terms would yield inaccurate results.

诠释《“爱”和“乐”》三字

《爱和乐》这三字,是音乐教育家陈功雄博士研究并实践三十多年的教育方法与教育目标。

于是,这三字可念成“爱(ài)和(hé)乐(yuè)”; 也可念成:“爱(ài)和(hé)乐(lè)”。

首先,念成“爱(ài)和(hé)乐(yuè)”时,就是陈博士的教育方法。

左脑是语言的脑,以“爱”的语言来强化左脑;右脑是音乐的脑,以美好的“乐”来活化右脑。

根据大脑科学的研究,左脑与右脑的频率相异。左脑的脑波是每秒钟振动14~30次的紧张β波;而右脑只能承受每秒钟振动8~13次的轻松α波。

由于,左脑是语言的脑,开口说话就要动用左脑,因此,不开口则已,要开口就要说“好话”(正面鼓励赞美的话),使人听了会开心的“爱”的语言。人以右脑沟通心灵,也以右脑与宇宙沟通;所以“开心”等于开右脑。

左脑也是逻辑数学、理解分析的脑,当我们在学习“文、英、数、理、化、史、地……”时,右脑反而关得紧紧的;因此,不论在上课或温习功课,要应用“配乐学习法”,以陈博士研究并实践三十多年的“与宇宙、生命同步的《美乐》”来开启右脑、活化右脑。由于右脑里存有人类五百万年共同累积的智慧结晶,右脑的能力及能量至少超过左脑十万倍,右脑的记忆力与创造力至少比左脑多出一百万倍;因此,只要开启右脑、活化右脑,而左脑的“文、英、数、理、化、史、地……”成绩自然大为提高。

其实,开启右脑、活化右脑后,不但功课好,规矩会更好。由于右脑通心灵,学生(孩子)都有一颗善良的心,不会做伤害生命的事,个个可以“成才”、可以“成人”!

其次,念成“爱(ài)和(hé)乐(lè)”时,就是陈博士的教育目标。

因为左脑的脑波是每钞钟振动14~30次的紧张β波,因此强烈使用左脑来死背硬记的话,会不快乐、易发怒、感受强大压力,脑内会分泌一种去甲肾上腺素物质(可谓“斗争的荷尔蒙”),具有很强烈的毒性(其毒性仅次于蛇毒),人会因而生病,也会加速老化及早死。音乐是声波的振动,陈博士所推广的古典音乐是与宇宙、生命同步的《美乐》,它能使左脑平静而创造力和灵感得以充分发挥,因为右脑中就设有这种与“宇宙波动”共振的“装置”。

因此,陈博士所推广的“音乐生活化”,是与目前中、小学里的音乐课程相异的。不必“听”,更不要“音乐欣赏”;只要把“美好的乐”(简称《美乐》)当背景音乐似的轻柔播放,几分钟后室内充满着“波动”。我们在此气氛下“生活”(无论读书、上课、办公、休闲、吃饭、睡眠……)就能随时随地开启右脑、活化右脑。

而开启右脑、活化右脑时,会激活让人心情愉快的“A10”神经,此时脑内会分泌大约二十种可使人美容、青春、健康、长寿的“脑内吗啡”。它不但带来快感且能提升免疫力、加强记忆力、增强忍耐力、发挥创造力、保持和睦的人际关系……因此,人人成为亲切、和蔼、充满爱与喜乐的“全脑人类”。大家都能爱人如己,也能得到别人的爱,明白生命的意义,彼此同心协力,我们就能在这地球上过着更幸福、快乐的生活。

所以《配乐学习法,音乐生活化》教育讲座,即是《优秀的胎教》,也是真正简单有效且具有实践价值的《素质教育》、《生命教育》讲座!
