You will now be engaging with a beautifully honest, commonly unique, analytical, athletic, understanding, peacefully competitive, seriously humorous, and humorously serious everyday man with relatable experience who speaks for himself. I have a soothing voice made for leading Yoga meditations, calming your riotous ass down, and Sunday night 90's R&amp;B romance radio. I'd love to, and can attempt to speak for you if you'd like me to, but the statements spoken in this podcast are not "definitive generalizations". This podcast was requested by many. This podcast taps into what the Golden Rule was, is, can be, and how it ties tightly into the human experience. If we are social reasoning animals, and most of our experiences involve other humans, then I propose that The Golden Rule, and a more concise definition of the rule is very important. New episodes dropping the first Sunday of every month, to assist in cruising confidently, fearlessly, honestly, and energetically into Mondays you will never even think of hating again.</p>
In episode eleven, we ask about and discuss the "right" things to do. We've discussed a lot of everyday actions and feelings in our time together during the first ten episodes, and in this sum of season one, you may switch some of your "right" decisions to the "wrong" side of the board. You may double down on your "wrong" decisions because they aren't objective. Have your decisions become more aligned with your definition of The Golden Rule? Are they a case by case basis depending on how you feel or who the other person is that you are reacting to?
In episode ten, I start by asking the question, are there objective wrongs? We are daily discussing subjectivity and objectivity, sometimes without even realizing. Objective is defined as, "not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts." Instinctively, you may say "YES!" I agree with you. Justification may not agree with you. In regard to different versions of The Golden Rule, we discuss what I think are the basic objective wrongs. What do you think are objective wrongs? Do you think objective wrongs should be taught to children at a young age with a concise explanation of the wrong and the consequences?
In episode nine, we discuss The Marathon of Life. A marathon is literally defined as a "long distance running race, strictly one of 26 miles." The metaphor that life is a marathon isn't widely seen as a metaphor anymore, but a definite truth. We discussed love, hobbies, relationships, sex, infidelity, honesty, the mind, and how they are all involved in your experience. We've also discussed how both versions of The Golden Rule are approached regarding those daily actions and situations. How often do you check-in with yourself and others on your marathon? Do you like the pace you are moving at? Could it be faster? Could it possibly be slower? Hopefully you are exchanging pleasantries with everybody you encounter on this marathon, whether you are passing them up, or they are passing you up.
In episode eight, we discuss the mind. The mind is defined as "the element of a person that enables them to be aware of the world and their experiences, to think, and to feel: the faculty of consciousness and thought." There are many theories that the mind does not reside in the body. What do you believe? With everything we've discussed leading up to this episode, I think we can conclude that a lot, if not all, of our actions start with the mind. They usually also end in the mind with long lasting memories of experience. Has what you define The Golden Rule as been reshaped or refined in your mind during our discussions together?
In episode seven, we discuss infidelity and honesty. Infidelity is defined as the action or state of being unfaithful to a spouse or other sexual parter. This also could just be seen as lying or withholding information. In connection to love, our subconscious hobbies, romantic relationships within the relationship umbrella, and sex, infidelity and honesty are reoccurring themes in the experience of life. Infidelity can occur, then hopefully honesty to the deserving party follows before the hurt digs too deep. Does either version of The Golden Rule help defeat this action? Have you ever met a person who desired to be treated poorly, so in turn they treat people the same way?
In episode six, we discuss sex. Sex is the most natural workout humans experience. Sex is also connected to some of the deepest traumas that humans experience in connection to emotions like love, their hobbies, and relationships where two or more people engage in sex. To some sex is a sacred action, and to others sex is a casual action to not be taken too seriously. A high number of human's belief in sex falls somewhere in-between those two extremes. Can a better understanding and exercise of The Golden Rule make sex and the connection to that action a more enjoyable experience for all of us? Is no sex better than "meaningless" sex? For you personally, is the discussion of relationship goals important before engaging in sex or does it trump your feelings in the moment?
In episode five, we discuss romantic relationships. Rooted in love, hobbies, and sitting in a high level within the relationship umbrella, romantic relationships are important in the growth of life and a consisent hot topic. You will hear about some of my romantic relationship experience, ideas about how romance is and can be approached, as well as how the different versions of The Golden Rule have helped and hindered romantic relationship. Do you feel like there is a reoccurring ingredient of hurt being poured into the romantic dating pool? How can you personally assist in solving this issue?
In episode four, we discuss the relationship umbrella. It is popular to assume that a relationship is between two people that are exclusively dating each other. A relationship is defined as, the way in which two or more concepts, objects, or people are connected, or the state of being connected. I believe that we are in some type of relationship with everybody we encounter whether it be the cashier at the grocery store or a longtime co-worker. In connection to love and the evolution of hobbies, does knowing that every encounter will forever leave an experience on your relationship resume make you think about how you infuse the golden rule in all of your interactions?
In episode three, we discuss the evolution of hobbies. This open discussion includes information about the evolution of my personal hobbies, as well as how the evolution of your personal hobbies can knowingly and unknowingly shape your interactions and treatment of others whose hobbies match or don't match yours. In connection with love, do your hobbies and the love for them dictate how you treat others around you that may not share the same interests?
In the second episode of The Golden Rule, we discuss love. Love is defined as an intense feeling or deep affection. We may treat people and experiences with the love we have for ourselves, or treat people and other things with the love, or lack of, that we have received or shared with a person or experience. I discuss love in general, things I love, and love transferred between the original and new age version of The Golden Rule. Do you match energy when it comes to love or love by your standard no matter what?
