Pleasure is a state in which you feel good and enjoy what you are doing. It usually does not last long, because life is such that you have always other things to do, like work, cleaning the house, driving somewhere, interacting with other people, etc. you cannot stay in the feeling of pleasure for long.

When you eat some delicious food you derive pleasure from it, but the pleasure cannot last for long, since you cannot go on eating indefinitely, you finish eating the food on your late and the sensation of pleasure wears off after a while. You may enjoy watching a movie, but the movie lasts for a certain amount of minutes. When you read a book you enjoy reading, ultimately you reach the last page.

As you see, all pleasure is time limited.

Pleasure is usually awakened by external stimuli, and is largely physical, involving the five senses, like the smell of good food or its taste, or of the sight and physical contact of a certain person, a story you read in a book, etc.

Though happiness is similar to pleasure in some respects, yet it is different.

Pleasure is emotional in nature, while happiness is a state beyond the emotions and even beyond the mind. In pleasure the emotion are active. While in a state of happiness there is calmness and peace.

Happiness does not dependent on external stimuli, since it comes from within, though quite often, it seems as if the source is external.

Many websites across the net display a donation button, asking people to donate for the website. In most cases it is quite legitimate, understandable and reasonable. When you give free information or free software you make no money, but you spend your time on maintaining the website writing or building and improving software.

A website that displays a donation button usually gives you free information or stuff, requesting nothing in return. It just offers the option of donating, if you found the information or software useful, and only if you wish to donate.

A website costs money to maintain. There are monthly expenses to pay for hosting the website, for the Internet connection, for software required to maintain or improve the website, and there are other fees too. And what about all the time spent on the website, writing, researching and improving?

We all search for free software and free information, and there are many websites that offer free software and information, and that’s great, since not everyone can or is willing to pay for what he or she are seeking, and in this case a donation button might be of some help.

I give a lot of free information at my website, and I like doing so. I know that most websites, not all of them, give just a little information, and then ask you to buy something, which is quite ok. It is so everywhere. You don’t go to the supermarket or the shopping mall and take what you want without paying. If you want something you need to pay for it, and that’s the same with websites.

Inner PeaceSomeone has emailed me the following question:
“I understand it is important to own your mind, but what if you live next door to really noisy people who drive you crazy and make you lose you sleep? I cannot help thinking that the people who write these books have big detached houses so they already have a peaceful environment at least.”

It is not always possible to be in control of your environment, and therefore it is not always possible to live in a peaceful environment, but you can teach yourself to ignore noise and distractions. This is possible, and I know this from personal experience. On the plus side, when you learn to meditate or calm down your mind in an environment that is not quiet, and ignore the noise and distractions, you actually develop your inner strength in the process, and gain more inner power, will power self discipline and a sense of satisfaction.

A revised edition of the book “Visualize and Achieve” has been uploaded today.

Here is an excerpt from the introduction:

Creative visualization is a mental technique that uses the powers of the mind and the imagination to create what we want in our life. With the help of this technique we can shape our life, character and circumstances, and attract opportunities, people and the things we desire.

Creative visualization is similar to daydreaming. In both of them we create imaginary mental scenarios of events and situations, just like a movie, but with the difference that with creative visualization we implement certain rules and techniques that enable us to create these mental scenarios and events as reality in our life.

The thoughts we most often think create the circumstances and events of our life. Most people are not aware of this process and never use it consciously, but when you become familiar with the laws of creative visualization, you learn how visualize and think about what you really want, and intently attract it into your life. You become the conscious creator of your life.

This book was written in order to provide all the information, techniques and mental tools required for using creative visualization. It offers clear and easy to follow instructions and advice that everyone can understand and follow. This is a strictly practical book, designed for people who want results, and keeps the theory to the minimum required.

Some people asked why there is no print button on every page of the website and blog, so that they can print an article they wish to keep or read away from the computer.

It would be a lot of working implementing a print button on every page of the website, and it is unncessary, since you can print the articles by clicking on “file” at the top of the browser, and then on the “print” link. In Internet Explorer you can also print the page by clicking on the print icon at the top of the browser, and then on the “print” link.

The page will be printed without the ads, the graphics and the left and right menus.

You can see how the page would print without printing it, by clicking on “file” in top menu of the browser, and then on “print preview”. In Internet Explorer you can also click on print icon at the top of the browser, and then on “print preview”.

All the pages were designed in such a way that you can print just the article and logo, to save paper and ink.
