			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/33.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2978" title="33" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/33.gif" alt="" width="70" height="70" /></a>  Each and every thought or memory you have has a corresponding brainwave – an electrical signal that passes through  your brain and triggers an appropriate memory, thought, response or action.</p>
<p>The goal of the <a title="the ultimate super-achiever mind power program for higher " href="http://www.hotbrainz.com" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.hotbrainz.com?referer=');">QUANTUM MIND training program</a> is to support you in learning to recognize exactly what mental state and combination of brainwaves YOU are currently experiencing. From this you will develop the ability to create any combination of brainwaves at will &#8212; including higher states of consciousness,  and any combination appropriate for your current goal (instant deep meditation, creative awareness, etc).</p>
<h2>Human Consciousness</h2>
<p>There are six easily recognized states of human consciousness:</p>
<ol>
<li>Deep Sleep</li>
<li>Dreaming Sleep</li>
<li>Conscious Wakefulness</li>
<li>Instantaneous Insight</li>
<li>Transcendental Consciousness</li>
<li> Enlightenment</li>
</ol>
<p>Each of these six states of consciousness represents an increased direct personal experience of the nature of reality, and is said to move us closer to the ideal state of enlightenment.</p>
<p><strong>Deep sleep</strong> is the first level of consciousness, and occurs when your brain is producing very slow Delta brainwaves. During deep sleep there is some awareness, and we can still respond to such external stimuli as sound, bright light, or touch. However for the most part, during deep sleep our sensory perception is primarily turned down, and we experience very little cognition or thinking.</p>
<p>The second state of consciousness is <strong>dreaming</strong>. During dreaming we produce REM (rapid eye movements) and spikes into the faster brainwave frequencies. We are a bit more conscious and alert than during deep sleep. Dreams are definite experiences – we see images and patterns, perceive sounds, and can even think and analyze during dreams.  Dream reality poses something of a mystery. The Buddha is quoted as having said: “Am I a man dreaming I am a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming I am a man.”</p>
<p>The experience of <strong>conscious</strong> <strong>wakefulness</strong> is the mental state we tend to spend most of our waking time in. Measurable brain activity during the waking state of consciousness is quite different when compared with brain activity during both sleep and dreaming. Common wakefulness brainwave activity is dominated by Beta and Gamma brainwaves, perhaps with some Alpha spikes.</p>
<p>The fourth state of awareness is <strong>instantaneous insight</strong>. This is the state of consciousness we experience when we have an instant insight, often accompanied by a sensation of a light flashing in the brain, or a vibration or pressure across the top of the head. This state of mind is entered through a state of relaxed awareness dominated by Alpha and some Theta brainwaves. The sensation of light flashing in the brain is an explosion of energy created by a massive neural connection. The feeling of pressure across the top of the head is sensed as the entire cortex vibrates in a single coherent frequency – like the shaking of a bowl of jello.</p>
<p>The fifth state is content-free restful alertness, often referred to as <strong>transcendental consciousness</strong>. This state usually occurs during deep meditation when we become, even for a moment, absolutely still and focused in the quiet gap between our thoughts. This state occurs as the mind momentarily aligns with the Unified Field of Consciousness &#8212; the one source of infinite intelligence and creativity. In this state the the self is only aware of itself, and is devoid of all thoughts, feelings and perceptions. Your self-awareness is intact, yet there is no sense of time, space, or your body.</p>
<p>This mental state has a corresponding brainwave corresponds to an integrated brain state in which the left and right hemispheres are totally balanced and the Schumann gate is open. Conscious Delta brainwaves are present, and levels of Theta and Alpha are elevated and integrated through activity in the Schumann frequency (7.87 cps).</p>
<p>The sixth state of consciousness is <strong>enlightenment, </strong>a meta-level of awareness characterized by the persistent presence of Transcendental Consciousness throughout all of one’s activity &#8211; waking, sleeping, and dreaming. To my knowledge, no brainwave studies have been performed of this state of consciousness. I personally know only one person whom I can attest lives in this state of enlightenment and constant bliss – Sri Anandi Ma – but I have heard of others.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Recall how as a kid you dreamed of playing wonderful roles – doctor, lawyer, fireman, hero, maybe even superman or wonder woman! Anything and everything was possible then. </span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I had a dream for a while of living in a lean-to in the nearby mountains (never did manifest that one.)  I also had a dream of being an artist. That one went underground until a friend “tricked” me into discovering my long-submerged painting talent at age 60.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Actually daydreaming is NOT a waste of time, in spite of our childhood teachers scolding us with *wake up and pay attention.*</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Daydreaming is a super powerful KEY to truly getting what you most want as an adult.  Daydreams in the form of focused visualization can transform your deepest desires to reality.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Do YOU have a dream you want to bring into reality? The first step is to escape the stress and relax down into the Alpha brain state that was so natural for us as kids. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">The next step is to carve out a 10 minute slot for a focused visualization of actually *having* what you desire – make your daydream as detailed and real as possible. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">The more often you do this, the more convinced your powerful subconscious mind will become – and the more likely it will push you to take the appropriate actions to achieve your dream.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">If you’re *really serious* about achieving your dream, there’s a way to instantly get your brain into Alpha and achieve those dreams like a magician at <strong><a title="Self Growth Planet" href="http://www.SelfGrowthPlanet.com" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.SelfGrowthPlanet.com?referer=');">Self Growth Planet&#8230;</a></strong></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>How to<strong> BUILD genius mind power </strong></h1>
<p><strong>If your IQ is ataverage,  hold on to your socks: Genius levels of mental processing ARE within your reach.</strong></p>
<p>John von Neumann, the inventor of th<strong> least </strong>e computer, estimated that our brains hold two hundred and eighty quintillion bits of memory that&#8217;s 280, followed by 18 zeros. But most of today&#8217;s neuroscientists feel even this estimate is far too low.</p>
<p>A few short years ago scientists believed geniuses were born with brains that were somehow different from the rest of us. BUT &#8211; recent scientific research suggests that genius mind power is more the result of mental training not just genetic superiority.</p>
<p>Even today&#8217;s Einstein&#8217;s are now seen by neuroscientists as ordinary people who have simply consciously developed extraordinary <a title="What is genius mind power?" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genius" target="_self" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genius?referer=');">genius mind power</a> and focus.</p>
<h2><strong>How Genius is Developed</strong></h2>
<p><strong></strong><br />
We don&#8217;t often think of the mind as a tool whose powers can be developed on such a dramatic level. But the good news is  there are definite, proven-effective ways to develop your brain&#8217;s capacity to express genius mind power.</p>
<p>Modern neuroscientists and <a title="What does brainwave training do?" href="http://www.doctorhugo.org/brainwaves/brainwaves.html" target="_self" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.doctorhugo.org/brainwaves/brainwaves.html?referer=');">brainwave training</a> experts claim that genius-level mental functioning is primarily all about connections.</p>
<p>Which connections? The ever-changing maze of connections among your neurons brain cells. The scientific evidence is this: The more you stimulate and challenge your brain, the more connections it is forced to create to enable your neurons can communicate with one another.</p>
<p>And the more interconnections you have between your brain&#8217;s neurons, the closer you move toward genius-level creativity and thinking! It really is primarily that simple.</p>
<p><strong>Einstein&#8217;s Secret</strong><br />
As a child, Albert Einstein was seriously dyslexic and had great difficulty with both speech and reading. He was actually expelled from high school and flunked his first college entrance exam, although he finally did manage to complete his bachelor&#8217;s degree.</p>
<p>He then took a lowly job in the Swiss patent office. But then when he was only 26, he published his Special Theory of Relativity And sixteen years later he won a Nobel Prize.</p>
<p>Dr. Thomas Harvey, a pathologist on duty at Princeton Hospital when Einstein died in 1955, removed Einstein&#8217;s brain. Harvey studied it under a microscope over a 40-year period, but never found any differences from &#8220;normal&#8221; brains.</p>
<p>But in the early 1980s Dr Marian Diamond, a neuro-anatomist at the University of California at Berkeley, made some interesting discoveries. Her findings about brains in general revolutionized our ideas about what genius really is!</p>
<p>Diamond placed a group of rats in a very stimulating environment with ladders, swings, treadmills, and rat toys. She then confined a control group of rats to bare cages.</p>
<p>The rats in the stimulating environment lived to advanced ages the equivalent of 90 for mankind. But even more remarkable, Diamond found their brains had grown an amazing number of new connections between their neurons.</p>
<p>She had discovered the first hard evidence that higher intelligence could be created through mentally-stimulating exercise. And then when she examined sections of Einstein&#8217;s brain, she made the remarkable discovery that it WAS different from the average brain in one way. Like her super-stimulated rats, Einstein&#8217;s brain also had an unusually high number of experience-based neural interconnections.</p>
<p>Our brains can continue to grow in complexity right up to a very advanced age. Each challenge you present to your brain causes immediate physical changes no matter what your age.</p>
<p><strong>A Plan of Action</strong><br />
Your brain&#8217;s inter-neural connections can potentially increase in number and complexity throughout your life. The more you learn, the more of these pathways you create. And the more you stimulate your brain, the sharper your memory and mental responses. The payoff is immeasurable, and can lead straight to genius mind power.</p>
<p>The most basic way to build genius mind power is to intellectually challenge and exercise your brain. You can create healthy new neural networks by learning a new skill or a second language, or learning to play a musical instrument.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/einsteinmultcolor1.png"></a>You CAN  Double Your Brain Power</h1>
<p>Think you have an &#8220;average&#8221; or perhaps an &#8220;above average&#8221; mental capacity?</p>
<p>Actually you have far more brain power than you can begin to imagine. You have close to, or  perhaps even beyond, *genius* brain power potential! You say you don&#8217;t believe me?</p>
<p>The past 20 years could well be called &#8220;the decade of the brain.&#8221; Neuroscience now has the means of observing a healthy living brain in action.   But still, trying to define our  ultimate brain power capacity is like trying to place your finger on a globule of mercury.</p>
<p>The human mind is infinitely complex and subtle. And your amazing mind is no exception!</p>
<h2>Your Amazing Brain Power</h2>
<p>Your brain contains 1,000,000,000,000 individual nerve cells (neurons). But this figure is even more astounding when you consider that each nerve cell can interact with at least as many as 100,000 other nerve cells.</p>
<p>Then &#8230; if we calculate the potential capacity of your brain cells to make interconnections &#8212; the resulting number would be at least 10.5 million kilometers long.</p>
<h2>How Much Brain Power Are YOU Using?</h2>
<p>No known person has even approached using their full brain power or mental capacity. The human brain is virtually limitless.</p>
<p>It was once estimated we use about 10% of our mental potential. Today neuroscience has dropped that estimate to less than one percent. And even that figure seems overly optimistic!</p>
<p>Your &#8220;Thinking Cap&#8221; You&#8217;ve likely heard the expression &#8220;thinking cap.&#8221; That slang term refers to our brain&#8217;s cerebral cortex &#8212; the &#8220;cortical grey matter&#8221; neuroscientists consider the source of our thinking capacity.</p>
<p>Your cortex is actually split into two separate sides connected by a fantastically dense and complex highway of nerve fibers called the &#8220;corpus collosum.&#8221;</p>
<p>In most people, the left side of the cerebral cortex deals with logical matters &#8212; words, numbers, reasoning, and analysis. It spends a lot of time in the &#8220;beta&#8221; brainwave range. The right side of your cerebral cortex, on the other hand, deals with imagination, images, color, day-dreaming, visualization, and pattern recognition. It tends to focus quite a bit in the &#8220;alpha&#8221; brainwave range so highly developed in meditators.</p>
<h2>Are You Right-Brained OR Left-Brained?</h2>
<p>There&#8217;s a common assumption that most people are either right-brained OR left-brained.</p>
<p>If that&#8217;s true, then we must assume that the great scientific genius Albert Einstein was left-brained &#8212; and the great creative master of photography Ansel Adams would then have been right-brained.</p>
<p>But was this the case?</p>
<p>Nope. An examination of the notebooks of Albert Einstein and Ansel Adams pokes huge holes in this common theory. In fact, Einstein credited his greatest scientific insights not to left-brain logic &#8212; but rather to his right-brain highly creative daydreaming and brain power.</p>
<p>And Ansel Adams credited his greatest art photographs not to his right-brain artistic &#8220;eye&#8221; &#8212; but rather to his left-brain detailed analytical note taking.</p>
<p>Actually &#8211; our most powerful and expansive mental activities are those using *both sides* of our cortex.</p>
<p>When you describe yourself as primarily creative or intuitive (right-brained), or analytical and logical (left-brained), you are just describing the side of the cortex you have most successfully developed. With the right nurturing, the other side of your cortex can also flourish and develop!</p>
<p>This has the potential to *double* your mind power!</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Immediately</span> DOUBLE Your Brain Power</h2>
<p>There&#8217;s a simple, but powerful, way for you to <strong>immediately</strong> refine the non-dominant side of your cortex and double your brain power. Great athletes do it. So do top executives, famous artists, and people from all walks of life who seek to excel in their lives.</p>
<p>On first reading, the following solution may seem too simple to be effective. Just give it a try, and you&#8217;ll be amazed at the expanded depth of your mental capacity.</p>
<p><strong>The solution?</strong> If you&#8217;re analytical &#8212; encourage yourself to daydream. And if you&#8217;re instead predominantly creative &#8212; encourage yourself to begin to logically analyze your creative efforts. Activate your mind and ask yourself &#8220;what if.&#8221; And&#8230; begin to pay more attention to your mental wanderings.</p>

<p>Earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, tsumanis,  hurricanes and industrial failures are happening around the world at an alarming frequency today. Disaster preparedness is of increasing importance.</p>
<p>It’s no accident the Red Cross, our churches,and the media news are now telling us to “Be prepared.”</p>
<p>Dr. Jill Ammon-Wexler of Quantum-Self here. I have personally been through three disasters – including two major earthquakes, and being stuck on a remote mountain in an old VW in the middle of a very intense blizzard.</p>
<p>Each time I was thankful for the disaster preparedness supplies I always keep at home and in my car.</p>
<p>From my heart, I suggest you consider setting up home and car emergency preparedness kits.</p>
<h2>Preparing a Disaster Preparedness Kit</h2>
<p>Include some energy-intense foods, water, a rain poncho, a space blanket, a good multi-purpose knife, a flashlight and extra batteries, first aid supplies, water purification tablets, a water container, a way to start a fire, some rope, etc.</p>
<p>Think ahead for yourself and those you love.</p>
<p>I personally buy pre-made kits from the company that also supplies the Red Cross, the US Marine Corps, and several major world-wide preparedness and disaster support organizations. I trust their integrity and the reliability of their products.</p>
<h3>Free Disaster Preparedness Videos</h3>
<p>From my heart I urge you to spend a few minutes to view their VIDEOS on how to prepare yourself and your family for the *increasing probability* of future major earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, nuclear power plant failures, and other earth-related and weather disasters.</p>
<p>What you will learn about disaster preparedness could prove very important to you and your loved ones. <strong><a title="Disaster Preparedness Videos" href="http://bit.ly/dTkzmw" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/bit.ly/dTkzmw?referer=');">Watch videos NOW </a>  </strong></p>

<p> Are you struggling with the financial challenges of today&#8217;s economic downturn?</p>
<p> Many folks are turning to a new profession &#8212; working as a certified life coach in their own personal field of specialization.</p>
<h2>What is a Certified Life Coach?</h2>
<p>The first question might be: What IS a life coach? And only secondarily, what is a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">certified</span> life coach?</p>
<p>In the simplest possible terms, a life coach may specialize in anything.</p>
<p>If you have built a great dog training business, for example, you might want to offer coaching to teach other people how to set up their own dog training business. The same is true for virtually any specialization &#8212; from small business, to dealing with personal challenges, or even preparing your homw for sale. The field of personal<br />
coaching is wide open.</p>
<p>There are basically TWO secrets to doing well as a life coach.  The first is picking a field of interest<br />
you are truly interested in and have some skill in. The second is more challenging – presenting yourself as a credible resource.</p>
<h3>How to Become A Certified Life Coach</h3>
<p>Becoming a cdertified life coach can cost thousands of dollars. But there is an alternative.  Mike Litman and Steve G.<br />
Jones have created an amazing life coaching certification course that can solve the certification challenge.</p>
<p> How would YOU like to be certified by Mike Litman as a trusted resource in your field?</p>
<p>Mile and Steve have done something truly amazing. Their certified life coach program is destined to retail for $675.<br />
 BUT &#8212; You can now enroll for the ridiculously low price of just $77 if you respond quickly!<br />
 <br />
That&#8217;s nearly 90% off the normal price of $675!  They can only take a limited number of students so<br />
act now before the price goes up.<br />
 <br />
If this fits your vision, I encourage you to Enroll Today, at almost 90% Off &#8211;<br />

<p>Similar life coaching certifications will cost you thousands. Go ahead and search the internet foryourself. Why pay thousands when you can get certified by a BIG name for just $77?<br />

It&#8217;s a habit!</p>
<h1>It&#8217;s a HABIT!</h1>
<p>An estimated 95% of our actions and thoughts are just a habitual and unconscious. </p>
<p>Initially we form a habit because something worked for us in a certain situation. But that’s no guarantee that habit is perfect for what’s happening in your life today.</p>
<p>If you find you’re running into the same challenge again and again in some area of your life – you may have habitual thoughts and actions you should consider changing! </p>
<h2>Is a Habit in Control?</h2>
<p>It’s easy to assume we have no control over our habits. But a habit CAN be replaced with a more desirable behavior.</p>
<ol>
<li>Start by increasing your awareness of the habitual action.</li>
<li>Begin to notice when you “automatically” respond with anger or frustration to something in your relationship.</li>
<li>Then start to consciously practice a new, more positive habit to responding better to that situation.</li>
</ol>
<p>The old habit will gradually weaken as you replace it with a more conscious response – rather than an old “knee-jerk habitual reaction.”</p>
<h3>Build a  Success Habit</h3>
<p>Dr Jill Ammon-Wexler, doctor of psychology and pioneer brain trainer, tells us it takes three weeks to a month to change a habit for a reason. Only at that point has your new habit been cemented into your brain as a long-term memory. <a title="Become All you Can Be!" href="http://www.becomeallyoucanbe.com" target="_self" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.becomeallyoucanbe.com?referer=');"><strong>Here&#8217;s a great solution to building a success habit!</strong></a></p>

<h1>Stop Criticizing Yourself</h1>
<p>Has someone has ever caused you emotional pain with careless, mean or sarcastic remarks? What follows are some practical ideas to avoid that sort of pain in the future – and to also make sure that “someone” is not your own self.</p>
<p>Of course criticism can be a positive thing at times – and we must be able process this kind of feedback if we want to progress in our lives. Without some form of feedback it would be hard to improve our performance or behaviors.</p>
<p>But criticism can also inflict pain! It can cut very deep – and even stay with us for our lifetime. Depending upon how well you handle it, criticism has the potential to put serious limits on your life – OR to take you forward into higher levels of personal performance.</p>
<p>Sorting it Out <strong><br />
</strong>Let’s start with a sorting technique to separate the facts from the opinions. A fact is something that is somehow provable and can be shown to be true. An opinion is an idea, or someone’s personal interpretation of something. Look at your dog, for example. If you were to say,&#8221; That’s a beautiful dog,&#8221; it would be an opinion.</p>
<p>The underlying fact it that it&#8217;s a dog. Your neighbor might think your dog is ordinary looking, or even ugly. One judgment (It&#8217;s a dog) is objective, and the other (It&#8217;s a beautiful dog) is subjective.</p>
<p>Many times people will state their opinions as fact – while what they are expressing is only their opinion.</p>
<p>I saw someone step on a scale on a TV program and weigh in at 450 pounds. I was alarmed, but he beamed with joy. I had automatically judged him to be seriously overweight. But he revealed that he had lost almost 400 pounds. Wow! My opinion was just that – and his judgment was quite different!</p>
<p>if someone calls you a &#8220;couch potato&#8221; (the term could be a lot more painful), you should decide for yourself if this is a fact or an opinion. Check out how you look. Do you look or act like a &#8220;couch potato?&#8221; No? Then this is just someone’s opinion.</p>
<h2>The Question</h2>
<p>Here’s the really important question! Just whose opinion of you is the most important?</p>
<p>There are periods in life when other peoples’ opinions of us are more important than our own opinion. This especially occurs during our sensitive teenage years. Since we are beginning to take our place as a young man or woman, the opinions of our peer’s often have a huge impact.</p>
<p>Actually that is a natural part of becoming “socialized.” But it&#8217;s one we do want to grow beyond as we become adults. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Sooner or later we have to make a serious decision to have OUR OWN opinion of ourselves be the most important opinion.</span></p>
<p><strong>What’s Your Frame of Reference </strong><strong><br />
</strong>The best way to correct any tendency to judge yourself poorly is to learn to choose your ‘frame of reference’. A ‘frame of reference’ is the criteria by which we judge something, or determine if it is valid.</p>
<p>There are two possible frames of reference: internal and external. Here’s how to understand the two:</p>
<p>Suppose you have completed a task at work. How do you know you’ve done it well? Does your direct supervisor tell you &#8220;Great job!&#8221;– or do you just know without anyone saying so? The first &#8220;frame of reference&#8221; is external, and the second is internal.</p>
<p>Actually neither frame of reference is better than the other – both can have their own importance.</p>
<p>For example, when learning something new, an external frame of reference is very useful. It&#8217;s otherwise difficult to learn anything other than what you already know. That’s why the learning experience is based on external feedback &#8230; until we have enough experience to decide for ourselves what&#8217;s working.</p>
<p>An internal frame of reference has YOU deciding what’s good, bad, or otherwise.</p>
<p>If you have an internal &#8220;feeling&#8221; that you&#8217;re using to judge yourself, this is an internal frame of reference. If you know what you’re doing, that&#8217;s probably appropriate. But if you’re doing something totally new, you may still benefit from some external feedback.</p>
<h3>Dealing Positively With Opinions</h3>
<p>When you are thinking about your self and how you&#8217;re regarded, it’s beneficial to create some solid, positive internal frames of reference.</p>
<p>People with healthy self-esteem operate from a positive internal frame of reference in regard to their personal worth. People with weaker self-esteem operate from an external frame of reference – and are more likely to listen to other people’s opinions of their worth. And in some cases – they actually allow others to totally decide their worth. This is does <span style="text-decoration: underline;">not</span> lead to a positive life experience!</p>
<p><strong>So can you change this? Here are few simple suggestions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Start by paying attention to what you say to yourself about your own self. If you hear negative self talk YOU are creating a negative internal frame of reference.</li>
<li>Begin to correct this by paying more attention to the things you appreciate about yourself.</li>
<li>Put more focus on what you do well, and realize that none of us are perfect in all aspects of our lives.</li>
<li>Be a little kinder and forgiving of yourself and others.</li>
<li>Forget past pain and judgments, and stop re-creating them by bringing them into the present moment.</li>
<li>Take a course, read a book, or attend a seminar on personal empowerment or <a title="Self Confidence" href="http://www.quantum-self.com/smash_your_limits.htm" target="_blank"><strong>self-esteem.</strong></a></li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/lotus.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1125" title="experience higher mental states" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/lotus.png" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a>Here’s some good news&#8230;</h1>
<p>Dr. Jill here from The Self Growth Planet. Did you see the movie *Pay It Forward* with Kevin Spacey and Helen Hunt –or did you read the book? Well although a  decade has passed, it seems like the movement is still alive and well. And that&#8217;s really good news!</p>
<h2>Real Live Good News</h2>
<p>The *Pay It Forward* concept is to reach out and help a stranger, expecting only that they will do the same for someone else. The good news is &#8212;  this great idea of performing unsolicited acts of kindness has actually surfaced as a social movement in the sweet little seaside town of Nanaimo, British Columbia [located on Vancouver Island.]</p>
<p>According to one well-known Nanaimo resident, he got to the window at Tim Horton’s to pay for his cup of coffee, but the cashier told him that the customer before him had already paid for his coffee. When he then told the sales girl that he would then pay for the next person behind him, she told him he was the fourth consecutive person to do this.</p>
<p>That stirred up his interest. He asked the girl if anyone at the restaurant had kept track of such spontaneous acts of kindness. One of the employees shared even more good news &#8211;  he was aware of 30 people in a row on one day.</p>
<p>It seems that in the midst of all the gloom and doom we get from the news media lately, caring for your neighbor is still alive and well. Hurrah.</p>
<h3>Let&#8217;s Keep This Good News Going!</h3>
<p>How about passing this good news along to your friends and Facebook pals. Let’s keep this friendly good news movement going.</p>
