Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5

[Shannon]

Hi Shannon

I work with entrepreneurs daily and see people that are successful and often monetarily rich. One thing I though about today was that people who learn something, gain experience, and then use their experience to create a product that solve a problem they found - are often the ones that are both most happy and successful. They invest in themselves and then capitalize on that investment.

I thought about UMS and how it’s able to guide the user towards this, seeing monetary success as a end goal with a number of sub goals before that that is needed for the later ones. It’s a bit like Steve Jobs said “it’s impossible to connect the dots looking forward, you can only do it backwards”. Maybe the aubconscious can and that UMS help it to get into the right mindset towards monetary success with it.

Don’t really know what I wanted to say with the post, but just share my thoughts on it. And maybe what I’m wondering is UMS approach for find a long term perspective in acquire wealth and it’s relationship to happiness. And I’m using your own circumstances, what you have a tendency to be good at (that you maybe don’t even know consciously) and finding the best path towards wealth with that.

Steve Jobs was referring to the limitations of the conscious awareness with that quote.  The subconscious has access to perspectives that the conscious does not, including perceptions of time that are very different.  What appears to be "the future" to the conscious mind's "point of now" perception may be "part of the present" to the subconscious mind's "smear of now" perception.

Beyond that I really don't know what you're asking for here.
