Keeping the maybe alive … it is virtually impossible to say no to

Where advertising, Steve Jobs reality distortion field, and Jim Norman’s Meeting techniques overlap …summed up in 45 seconds…

“Keeping the maybe alive is the skill of presenting potential possibilities and then fueling them with desire it’s about learning where the emotional buttons are and then triggering them When there is real desire even if it is hidden it’s possible to lure it out But you really got get what the other person is missing and then give it to them and when done right it is virtually impossible to say no to. …Confidence… strong self-confidence is essential for seduction…without it you can’t go after what you want…Our self-image is formed and is deeply affected by our environment…. “
From Chen Lizra’s  TedX Talk )

Chimamanda Adichie – The danger of a single story

This wonderful TED talk explains why stories are worth saving.
It explains why having data your photos and documents backed up matters.
It explains why filmstrips should be preserved.
And It explains why I fall into the trap of stereotyping people.

Week 5 of Prevent Now 2 Weeks of almost no wheat

I am down 14 lbs.  I have a lot more energy.  I feel less hungry.
What have I done so far.  Lost 14 Lbs.  Start 296, now 282.

Joined PreventNow.
I Went to the doctor.  His advice cut white sugar, and white flower, for 90 days and  no eating after dinner.
Not being one for moderation I also added in following the Wheat Belly advice.
It has been hard.  But, it sure feels good so far. Also, I stopped by weight watchers for official weight in since I am still a member.
