			<description><![CDATA["What I would like to do now is to explore some aspects of the nature
of self-actualization, not as a grand abstraction, but in terms of the
operational meaning of the self-actualization process. What does self-actualization mean in moment-to-moment terms? What does it mean on Tuesday at four o'clock?"]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<img title="" alt="" src="http://talentdevelop.com/images/TowPsychBeing.jpg" align="left" border="0" height="95" hspace="11" vspace="5" width="60"/>It is true that human beings strive perpetually toward ultimate
humanness, which itself may be anyway a different kind of Becoming and
growing. It's as if we were doomed forever to try to arrive at a state
to which we could never attain. Fortunately we now know this not to be
true, or at least it is not the only truth. There is another truth
which integrates with it. We are again and again rewarded for good
Becoming by transient states of absolute Being, by peak-experiences.<br/>]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Buddhist Happiness]]></title>

By Sylvia Boorstein, Ph.D.

      
         
      [Transcribed
from ShrinkRapRadio.com podcast]

 

 Excerpt:  Happiness has quite a specific meaning.  It
doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean &#8220;pleased.&#8221;  We often, I think, equate
&#8220;pleased&#8221; with &#8220;happy.&#8221; Things are going my way.  I feel pleased,
that&#8217;s good, I&#8217;m happy.  

      
      This
is the kind of happiness that means the mind and the heart engaged in a
warm way with one&#8217;s self, with other people, with people we know, with
people we don&#8217;t know... with the whole world, actually. And I would
really &#8211; I do, in fact &#8211; define happiness as the ability to engage in
warm relationship.<br/>]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Art and Happiness]]></title>
			<link>http://talentdevelop.com/articlelive/articles/638/1/Art-and-Happiness/Page1.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[In the recently published "Against Happiness," popular writer Eric Wilson disparages our current love affair with putting on a happy face. With our "feel good" culture and the widespread use of happy drugs, everybody's trying to be cheerful and there are no decent dollops of melancholy and sadness, he says. When this happens, art becomes bland, unchallenging and redundant.<br/><a  href="http://talentdevelop.com/articles/ArtandHapp.html">http://talentdevelop.com/articles/ArtandHapp.html</a><br/>]]></description>

			<link>http://talentdevelop.com/articlelive/articles/622/1/A-bigger-ego-is-the-only-way-to-truly-create-A-New-Earth/Page1.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[
Anyone who's been exposed to even a small amount of traditional
spiritual teachings, particularly from the East, has heard all the ways
that the human ego gets debased and despised. 

      
      To
most, the ego is a selfish, materialistic, stingy, controlling monster
that must be at least controlled and at best destroyed. 

      
      This
is ignorance and a lack of understanding of something that will never
be actualized.<br/> ]]></description>

There’s nothing wrong with doing new things, pursuing activities,
exploring new countries, meeting new people, acquiring knowledge and
expertise, developing your physical or mental abilities, and creating
whatever you’re called upon to create in this world... Now the question is, Are you looking for yourself in what you do? Are
you attempting to add more to who you think you are? <br/> ]]></description>

-- The best and quickest way to improve your life is simple: just think
more positively.

      

You&#8217;ve probably heard this many times before. And you&#8217;re probably
thinking, &#8220;That&#8217;s a great idea, but in the real world it&#8217;s much easier
said than done.&#8221;

      

It&#8217;s true; like a lot of things in life, becoming a &#8220;positive&#8221; person
is an idea that is simple but not necessarily easy. 

      
      The goal of this
brief article is to give you a few simple and practical techniques that
will help you make positive thinking an automatic and permanent part of
your life.

      When I couldn&#8217;t
figure something out when I was growing up, my grandfather used to say,
&#8220;Take a walk. Clear your mind.&#8221;
He
believed that if you set aside your
issue for a little while, you would allow your subconscious mind to
bring forth new and better thoughts... my
grandfather was right.<br/> ]]></description>
