Greetings.

It is now 2:50 PM EST for me.

I know I said last week that I would type something in today, and then next week I’ll finally start explaining idea ‘Strength’ tomorrow. Since I don’t have time to type much in today, I’ll just start early tomorrow and give you what I can, and then next Thursday I will finally explain idea ‘Strength’, unless I change my mind. I’m letting you know today, since I did say that I would type in something today. Tomorrow, I plan to finish explaining idea ‘Resist’, and other ‘loose end’ ideas. Once I start explaining idea ‘Strength’, and if you choose to use that idea, you may notice an obvious change in your use of strategy. I won’t make a new list, or delete what I am typing tomorrow. I’ll just start tomorrow in this list, the usual, and I’ll leave this here.

I plan to watch the new episode of ‘Star Trek: Picard’ tomorrow, and that begins according to www.google.com at 3 AM EST, and that means after I would watch it, I would begin typing tomorrow, probably sometime after 4 AM EST. So, if you are there tomorrow, I’ll see you then.

3/30/2023

It is now 6:21 AM EST for me.

Just letting you know that I’m going to look for that music video and trailer now. I’ll let you know later today when they’re ready. I watched the latest episode of ‘Star Trek: Picard’ earlier today, I was able to watch it about 20 minutes earlier than it’s scheduled 3 AM since it made itself available earlier, but I’m still typing later than my scheduled 4 AM. So, after they’re ready later today, I’ll start typing again. I’ll see you then.

It is now 8:55 AM EST for me.

I have to admit(used as figure of speech) that I have much more time available now for today. However, I could have done better. So, here it is: The music video that I watched for the 1st time and recommend for this list is called ‘I Wrote A Song’ by Mae Muller. I found it by selecting from www.youtube.com publisher ‘MUSIC CHARTS’, select ‘VIDEOS’, select ‘Top 20 Songs: April 2023 (04/01/2023)… ‘, and a video clip from music video ‘I Wrote A Song’ starts 48 seconds into that video collection. Here’s a music video review quote from www.google.com found by searching for phrase ‘mae muller i wrote a song music video reviews’, and from that selection, I selected ‘essentiallypop.com’. Here’s the quote:

The video for the track capitalises on the carefree energy of the song, with a bright and vibrant ’90s aesthetic. Directed by duo AB/CD/CD (known for their work with artists like Lily Allen, Franz Ferdinand, and Kasabian), we follow Muller as she bounces back from a breakup by literally stomping all over any lingering memories of her ex, via the ingenious use of fantastically detailed miniatures sets. Intercut with tongue-in-cheek choreography, the video fuses magical realism and true-to-life emotion to wild and glorious effect.

And here is a quote from the lyrics to song ‘I Wrote A Song’:

Instead I wrote a song
‘Bout how you did me wrong
I could’ve cried at home
And spent the night alone
Instead I wrote a song
I feel much better now
Me and my girls are out
And we all sing along
Instead I wrote a song

To watch music video ‘I Wrote A Song’, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘i wrote a song’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with 648K views. It was published 3 weeks ago by publisher ‘Mae Muller’. As of now, there are 1,417 Comments. Here’s a partial quote from one of those comments:

‘ This is classic Europop. A catchy dance tune with a simple message that will be played in the clubs and by radio stations all around Europe. It will chart where it matters and be an earworm in those countries and bring the UK Eurovision success. ‘

In my opinion, there’s synchronized dancing, the lyrics are not terrible to listen to, and the music video is entertaining enough to watch at least once. I recommend music video ‘I Wrote A Song’ to be used with this advice based on that criteria.

The movie trailer that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘GRINGA Trailer (2023) Jess Gabor, Judy Greer’. I found it from selecting publisher ‘Rotten Tomatoes Trailers’ from www.youtube.com, select ‘VIDEOS’, then select ‘New Trailers This Week | Week 12 (2023)’, which was published 4 days ago. Movie trailer ‘Gringa’ starts 25 minutes and 1 second into that trailer collection. Here’s a storyline quote from www.imdb.com:

‘ A troubled teenage girl runs away to Mexico to find the father she has never known. Together they learn that a family can be put back together, even if all they have are the missing pieces. ‘

One of the main characters is Roselyn Sanchez, who also portrays Elena Roarke from tv series ‘Fantasy Island’. It’s a movie meant for entertainment, so, in my opinion, it’s entertaining to see a teenage girl going to Mexico to be with a father that she has never met, who also happens to be a soccer coach, since she takes soccer in high school. I might actually watch the movie when it comes out.

It is now 9:26 AM EST for me.

Quiet girl:

I’m going to type something in very quickly, a ‘pay the sponsor’ advice for, extrapolated, what the movie ‘The Quiet Girl’ refers to as ‘quiet girls’. If you search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘quiet girl’, the movie trailer ‘The Quiet Girl’ should show up, one is from publisher ‘Rotten Tomatoes Indie’. Here’s the storyline from www.imdb.com:

‘ Rural Ireland 1981. A quiet, neglected girl is sent away from her dysfunctional family to live with foster parents for the summer. She blossoms in their care, but in this house where there are meant to be no secrets, she discovers one. ‘

I’m just using the movie trailer as a reference, not to be used literally, that there may be girls that believe themselves to talk a lot less than other girls, from school, etc. I’m going to use a reference from the movie ‘The Big Year(2011)’ to give this advice. [As of 9:33AM EST, I less than a minute ago, I just decided to call this idea ‘Quiet girl’.] The movie ‘The Big Year’ is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts 38 minutes and 6 seconds into the movie. Here is the quote:

Jim Gittelson(Kevin Pollak): ‘Stu, you’re not involved, the deal dies.’

Barry Loomis(Joel McHale): ‘Look, you gave these people their jobs. If you don’t do something, they’re gonna lose them.’

I’m going to use character Stu Preissler(Steve Martin) as an example of a CEO from the movie ‘The Big Year’. Here’s the idea for ‘the quiet girls’: When CEOs choose to sell their companies, there are many things that only they can do with those companies. Yes, it meets the standards to be sold, but like what Stu Preissler did, there are things that only the original CEO can do with that company. So, to the quiet girls, I recommend that you imagine the many aspects of their company that will no longer be attended to by that CEO. Even though that CEO is able to sell his/her company, there are certain aspects of that CEO’s company that will no longer be tended to by that CEO, and only that CEO can tend to such situations. 1 hour, 27 minutes and 31 seconds into the movie, even though Stu was offered a lot of money to not retire, he declined the offer and still chose to retire. My point is that CEOs have experience with things that they choose to tend to, and things that they will no longer continue to tend to.

So, the advice to the quiet girls(girls that believe they speak a lot less than other girls do that they compare themselves to) is that to not think too much about it, there are a lot of things out there.

All right! It is now 10:06 AM EST for me.

Resist:

Here is a quote from last week’s list, Wishlist #1369:

Here is the definition of resist that I am using for idea ‘Resist’ from dictionary.com:

‘ to make a stand or make efforts in opposition; act in opposition; offer resistance. ‘

If you are an adult that has been working for your job for a few years or more, and you experience mild to moderate instigations from time to time, then you may have experienced instigations that should not happen where you work. I am imagining that, when you would experience such instigations, you would choose to dismiss/not use such experiences, since they are out of context, and does not belong in the workplace. Now, I don’t believe that I am an instigator, but the instigator would probably anticipate your actions, and cause you to dismiss something excessively, and it is my belief based on what I imagined that one of those something’s is a sense of resistance. If you watch ‘Star Trek’, they have food replicators. Let’s say you were to make a sandwich, but you order your ‘Star Trek’ food replicator to take out all of the salt possible, and replicate a sandwich without all of that salt. According to the computer via food replicator, although you can eat such a sandwich, you will not like the taste of it, because if you were to remove all of the salt, it would also change the taste identity of that sandwich. You get the computer to make that sandwich without salt anyway, and when you try to eat it, you spit it out because it does not taste like a normal sanwich. Sure, it’s replicated to look like a normal sandwich, but you don’t like how it tastes. Too much salt was removed.

And that is what I think certain experienced instigations are trying to cause innocent people throughout America to do, take too much resistance out of their efforts to make ideas to more tenably experience mild to moderate forms of instigation.

It is now 10:09 AM EST for me.

Before I continue the explanation for idea ‘Resist’, I’ll quote 2 scenes from the movie ‘Circle of Iron(1978)’ starring Jeff Cooper as Cord, Roddy McDowall as White Robe, and Anthony De Longis as Morthond. The movie is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, the 1st quote starts 7 minutes and 2 seconds into the movie. It’s a fighting scene. It’s the moment when Cord punches Morthond in the chest, and you get to see Morthond’s head stick out with his mouth wide open.

The 2nd quote starts 8 minutes and 16 seconds into the movie. Here is the quote:

White Robe: ‘You hit him after he was down. There are rules, and you have broken them. You have chosen to break almost every rule of the contest.’

I forgot to add several ‘Resistance’ references. The 1st reference is from episode 9.1 ‘Avalon: Part 1’ from sci-fi tv series ‘Stargate SG-1(2005)’. The episode is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts 6 minutes and 17 seconds into that episode. Here is the quote:

Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell(Ben Browder): ‘General, I’m here to join SG-1.’

Major General Hank Landry(Beau Bridges): ‘Colonel, you’re here to lead SG-1.’

Colonel Cameron: ‘Uh, what about Lieutenant Colonel Carter?’

General Landry: ‘Well, she’s taken command of Stargate’s R and D out of Area 51.’

Colonel Cameron: ‘Since when?’

General Landry: ‘Last week.’

Colonel Cameron: ‘And Daniel Jackson?’

General Landry: ‘Dr. Jackson put in for reassignment. Teal’c left the program over a month ago. I’m surprised General O’Neill didn’t tell you.’

Colonel Cameron: ‘No.’

7 minutes and 2 seconds into the episode:

Colonel Cameron: ‘I’m sorry, sir. The reason that I requested this post… Why… Why I worked so hard… ‘

General Landry: ‘Expresses himself poorly when faced with unexpected challenge? Your sheet says that you have outstanding leadership skills. Take the files, Colonel. Choose your team before I start to question the accuracy of that claim.’

The 2nd ‘Resistance’ reference is in episode 3.5 ‘Imposters’ from sci-fi tv series ‘Star Trek: Picard(2023)’. The episode is available as an Amazon Video Channel, Paramount +’, from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, that scene starts 9 minutes and 36 seconds into that episode. Here is the quote:

Worf(Michael Dorn): ‘Precisely why I requested access to Daystrom Station. We need to find out what else the Changelings stole from that vault.’

Computer: ‘Denied.’

Raffi Musiker(Michelle Hurd): ‘What? No.’

Raffi:(typing ‘WHY?’)

Computer: ‘DENIED.’

Computer: ‘FIND ANOTHER WAY.’

Raffi: (sighs) ‘We’ve been denied access to investigate Daystrom. But why deny us access and still tell us to pursue?’

Worf: ‘I have to assume the denial came from someone above my handler.’

Raffi: ‘They’re hiding something. (scoffs) You know, I am so done with all this pushback.’

It is now 11:00 AM EST for me.

Let’s see if I can make it work with the references that I have already recommended in this list. Here’s idea ‘Resist’: This is what I imagined: To the people who have worked in the same job for several years or more: if you experience instigation from time to time, when you would experience a mild to moderate form of instigation that does not belong in the workplace, is out of context/not relevant, to more tenably experience it, one of the most popular options that you may use may be to dismiss the experience. Here’s an example: an innocent woman is experiencing some sort of mild to moderate instigation that does not belong in the workplace. She’s been working in the same job for several years already, and has some experience with such instigations. (imagining logical precision use from a woman) Since the experienced instigation does not belong in the job and is not relevant, she chooses to dismiss the experience, to also not interact with it. So, to visualize, just imagine the innocent woman choosing to not interact with the seemingly frantic actions that is part of the instigator’s presentation of instigation. One woman, the innocent woman, seems to be just standing there, while the other woman seems to be frantically reacting, trying to get the attention of the woman that seems to be just standing there, choosing to not interact with something that the frantic looking woman is presenting to her.

Now, what I discovered several weeks ago is that the instigator wants the innocent person to dismiss his/her frantic? presentation, knowing that the innocent person may choose to also dismiss too much resistance. So, if you are an innocent person that has experienced instigation from time to time and you have been dismissing such instigations ‘on and off’ for several years, chances are that you have also dismissed the use of a certain sense of resistance as it relates to your use of strategy, your use of resolving certain forms of instigation, and resolving other situations as well.

Let’s look at those 2 references from the movie ‘Circle of Iron’ that I recommended in this list. When you look at that scene when Morthond is getting punched in the chest by Cord while he is on the ground, Morthond’s head is sticking out and his mouth is open not because he is in pain, but because Cord is initiating an attack that is against the rules of that competition. Morthond is surprised that Cord is doing such a thing. Later, in the 2nd ‘Circle of Iron’ reference, even though Morthond won the competition, if you look at Morthond, you can tell that Cord ‘took some of the fight out of him’, so to speak. Morthond doesn’t look as lively, as enthusiastic, as he did when fighting Cord in the beginning of their match. That is because, based on my imagination, Morthond is making an effort to not use that sense of resistance that Cord has imposed upon him to experience. Morthond is still acclimating to that experience. That is why Morthond looks like some of the fight has been knocked out of him.

Let’s use an American schoolgirl for this example. Since America is a melting pot of different cultures and beliefs, and yet the kids and teenagers with these different types of beliefs still attend the same schools, it is my belief that students over time learn to accept and interact with actions that are associated with school activities and responsibilities, even though those interactions from someone who does not have the student’s experiences may seem contradictory to that student’s unique beliefs. So, just imagine certain school related interactions, and a student is very easily interacting with those school related interactions. In that student’s mind, there is no conflict of interest with his/her beliefs, since such interactions are school related.

My point is that, when experiencing an instigation identified by idea ‘Resist’, the instigator has some sort of advantage, in the context of causing the innocent person to remove too much resistance in their use of resolving and use of strategy associated with dealing with experienced instigations. The innocent person will take out that sense of resistance, and will also take out that sense of resistance from other forms of contemplations as well. The innocent person’s use of logical precision is used against him/her.

The solution that I recommend if you believe you have experienced instigations identified by idea ‘Resist’ is to reasonably try to add a modicum amount of resistance in your use of resolvings and strategy. I am not saying that you should force people to commit to a sense of resistance interaction. I am saying that you add let’s say a little sense of resistance to your resolvings and strategies, to help replenish(to make full or complete again, as by supplying what is lacking, used up, etc.) that sense of resistance use that you should normally have when resolving and using your strategy. In other words, you want to continue looking like what Morthold looked like before he was fighting Cord, and just the beginning of his fight with Cord, to allow yourself to look lively again, filled with idealism, etc. In the very least, it’s a sense of resistance that you should have available to you.

Now, those 2 examples of resistance that I provided for you in this list, those are situations where people choose to use a sense of resistance in order to achieve certain goals. However, those forms of resistance were circumstantially presented for them to interact with. I am recommending that, from time to time, you choose to add a sense of resistance for certain uses of resolving and strategy. It doesn’t have to be in a way where other people would notice that you have added a sense of resistance. It could be done in a way that you are only contemplationally adding that sense of resistance to your sense of resolving and strategy use.

For example, lawyers in law tv shows add a sense of resistance to their interactions all of the time. Practically every sci-fi show available to watch in America has a sense of resistance encouraged for you to interact with vicariously.

I’m guessing that it’s possible that I may be the only one talking to you about this stuff. Advice to make experienced instigation more tenable for you to experience isn’t exactly something that you may hear from a job related water cooler conversation. So, if you experienced an instigation that is job related, or it was done at your job, and it bothered you and still bothers you considerably, ask yourself this question: Is it something that I need to tell my boss about? What I am trying to determine is if the experience bothers you considerably, but it’s not something that you feel you should tell your boss about. It something that bothers you considerably, but it’s not something that warrants your boss to know about. So, if it’s that type of experienced instigation, it’s a ‘yes’ and a ‘no’, then of course you can contemplationally maintain a sense of resistance for that experience. Keep that sense of resistance there. What I am trying to do is help replenish that sense of resistance that you are supposed to have when resolving and using your strategy, a sense of resistance that experienced instigation has tricked you into removing.

To get you started using idea ‘Resist’, just contemplationally say ‘Resist’, and recall experienced instigations that you believe the instigator is trying to somewhat remove your sense of resisting. You can go back to certain childhood experiences, see if other kids caused you to experience something that obviously? is encouraging you to excessively remove a sense of resistance. When you find those moments, contemplationally make an effort to replenish that sense of resistance that such an experience is encouraging you to remove.

If you like using idea ‘Resist’, then I anticipate that you will yet again experience a sense of epiphany that should last for a few days or more. If you choose to, and you don’t have to use this, it’s just extra, something more to work with, I recommend, refurbished for you to use to be compatible, that you associate your newfound epiphany with a scene from the movie ‘Xanadu(1980)’ starring Olivia Newton-John as Kira. You can watch that scene for free from www.youtube.com. Just search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘xanadu i’m alive’, and I recommend using selection ‘Xanadu (1980) – I’m Alive Scene (1/10) | Movieclips’ from publisher ‘Moviecliups’. It was published 2 years ago with 399K views. I recommend using the youtube app for your flat screen tv, and watching that scene while wearing headphones attached to your tv. I recommend that you associate your newfound sense of epiphany with Kira being revived in that video clip. You can change the details if you want. You can watch that video clip that’s about 4 minutes if you want to, but that scene when Kira comes to life starts about 1 minute and 14 seconds into that video clip. I believe that, if you are experiencing a sense of epiphany, or something positive, from using idea ‘Resist’, then when you see Kira in that scene being revived and you are associating that experience refurbished to yourself, you should feel your body tingle as Kira is being revived.

It is now 11:57 AM EST for me. I am going to close this list now. I could type more in, but I want to order something from Grubhub. I noticed last week that the Grubhub food ordering app changed since last I ordered. It now shows me a delivery person. Before, it was just an ETA and a phone number. Anyway, next Thursday, I will finally explain idea ‘Strength’, unless I change my mind again. In my opinion, if you choose to use idea ‘Strength’, it may change the familiarity of your current strategy. So, if you are there next Thursday, I’ll see you then.
