How Good Can it Get?
Cynthia Sue Larson
Develop Your
Character
“Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow.
The shadow is what we think of it;
the tree is the real thing.”
– Abraham Lincoln
American psychologist William James once said, “It is well
for the world that in most of us, by the age of thirty, the character has
set like plaster, and will never soften again,” yet the
modern-day research supports a different view. According to the relatively
new science of character, we have the ability to change our character when
we set our minds to it.
Aristotle said that to 'know thyself' is the beginning of all wisdom. This
seems evident in large part because such self knowledge can help ensure
that we will live a happier life that is based on what we really do care
about, rather than what we feel others expect us to care about. It's also
helpful to know the character of our family, friends, and colleagues, in
order to best communicate with them, and best appreciate what makes each of
us so unique. When we honor our strengths, we can see how they serve us
well and deepen our appreciation for who we are.
To assist toward this goal of increasing self-awareness, scientists have
identified six major categories of virtues (Wisdom, Courage, Humanity,
Justice, Temperance, and Transcendence) that provide a framework for
organizing 24 signature character strengths that are universally recognized
and valued in different cultures and nations around the world. For
example, the category of Wisdom includes: Creativity, Curiosity, Love of
Learning, and Perspective. The category of Courage includes: Bravery,
Perseverance, Honesty, and Enthusiasm. Humanity includes: Love, Kindness,
and Social Intelligence.
When I took this test, my results showed that my top four character
strengths are: Spirituality, Love of Learning, Leadership, and Love. When
we appreciate our current and developing character strengths, we'll have a
framework for self-knowledge that can assist us in feeling happier,
strengthening relationships, managing problems, boosting confidence,
reducing stress, and accomplishing our goals.
Did you know that I share new
experiences, tips, stories, and inspirational ideas at Facebook, Twitter
and YouTube? I look forward to seeing you there!
Love always, Cynthia Sue Larson

Myers-Briggs Intuitive Feelers
Experiencing Mandela Effects
Why are some of the rarest personality types more likely to experience
Mandela Effects and reality shifts? While Myers-Briggs
“Intuitive Feelers” account for only 25% of the
overall population, they are more likely than other personality types to
observe Mandela Effects, reality shifts, and quantum jumps.
While I was preparing to present a talk in Boulder, Colorado
about ETs, AI, and Evolution of Human Consciousness, part of
the material I was presenting has led me to recognize patterns that
I’d not seen before, linking personality with observation of
Mandela Effects and reality shifts. What I noticed was that personality
types who were most likely to recognize Mandela Effects were the Intuitive
Feeling types, as identified by the Myers-Briggs personality test. The
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality inventory was developed by
mother-daughter team Katharine Cook Briggs and her
daughter, Isabel Briggs Myers. Myers and Briggs
applied some ideas and insights of Swiss psychiatrist, Carl Jung, to
recognizing human personality characteristics.

Whitley Strieber talks with Cynthia Sue Larson about the
continuity of consciousness after death, the
‘soul-blindness’ of western civilization, and
humanity’s species initiation. Whitley describes his
most extraordinary out-of-body experience (OBE), which was witnessed and
corroborated, and ongoing collaboration with his wife Anne, who died in
August 2015. Whitley provides us with guidance for how we can
individually overcome soul-blindness, as we come to realize that the soul
is real, that we can learn what our soul wants from us, and that fear of
death is based in ego and biological concerns, but we can witness evidence
of survival of consciousness with continuing communication after death.
Whitley Strieber is a best-selling author of fiction (including The Wolfen,
The Hunger, Warday, and Wolf of Shadows) and nonfiction (including
Communion, Transformation, a New Vision of the Unexplained, and the
Afterlife Revolution). Whitley’s Unknown Country website is
among the oldest and largest websites, exploring questions and possible
answers about mysterious topics of ‘high strangeness.’

Grasshopper and Praying Mantis Appearances
Rod
Cathedral City, California, USA
I had just finished your book "Reality Shifts" (and ordered
"Quantum Jumps") when I visited a friend and had a long discussion about
the concept of quantum jumping between universes and the Mandela
Effect. It was a lively conversation and at the end I stood up to
leave, and saw a big grasshopper just outside her window, which is a very
rare insect in the desert where I live. I hadn't seen one in years,
and my friend hadn't seen one in so long she was convinced it was a praying
mantis. She had to look it up online to convince herself it was
actually a grasshopper. We were both startled at the appearance of a
"jumping insect" right after our conversation about quantum jumps.
And were reminded of Carl Jung and his sacrab beetle incident that give
birth to the concept of synchronicity. But that's not the end of
the story. Two days later I looked down and saw a white praying
mantis on the tire of my car! Again, I hadn't seen one in
over a decade. I'm struck by the white praying mantis against the
black tire, like it was saying, "You HAVE to notice me!" They are
usually good at camouflage. Two days after that I was
boarding a plane to go to a spiritual workshop and saw another grasshopper
at my feet on the runway!
.
Note from Cynthia:
Thanks so much for sharing your experiences with grasshopper and praying
mantis synchronicities over the course of two days--how amazing to see
these insects, and in such unexpected, unlikely places! It sounds
like these sightings helped to confirm the significance of the
conversations and thoughts you've been having recently about the Mandela
Effect, reality shifts, and synchronicities. Thanks so much for sharing
the awesome photograph, too! You're so right about how unusual it
is to see such a completely non-camouflaged praying mantis. It
really does seem to be saying, "Look at me!" I love it!

Delayed Observation of Decision
Daniel
Bronx, New York, USA
Most recently, I had a problem where my Vimeo account had
been mistakenly banned, allegedly because I had posted something that
didn't abide by the site's guidelines. As a result, all of my
videos, comments, subscriptions and everything that went along with it,
were gone just like that. It would've been all too easy for me to
just take it as a loss and move on, but instead, I decided to appeal this
action. Now, in the past, I've tried to contest things, but had
little success. Even other big sites have options to appeal an
account suspension over what you feel was an erroneous decision on their
part, but few people, if any at all, even get a response, never mind
a bad one. But my Vimeo account was something that I felt
particularly attached to so I wasn't about to just let it go without a
response or a fight of some kind. So, I fought it, I wrote up an
honest appeal and sent it to their legal department that handles those
matters, and waited with bated breath for the answer, which I received on
Monday.
But I chose not to open the e-mail. At least, not
right away.
Right after sending my appeal out, I remembered some of the things that you
had talked about; things like the "Quantum Zeno Effect" and "Schrodinger's
Cat" and how outcomes can still be subject to change so long as they are
not being observed. I also remember hearing about how some things
can be "quantum locked," only taking a final fixed physical form when
someone sees them. (That's right, I've been watching "Doctor Who"!
Thank you for that recommendation!)
Well, instead of opening the e-mail response right away, I decided to
meditate for a while, so that I could get my energies balanced and enter
into a more positive frame of mind. I did this to stave off any
worries of "oh, who am I kidding? They're just gonna say 'too bad,
Daniel. Rules are rules. If you are unclear on them, then
that's on you'. Why should I get my hopes up"? So, from
Monday until Friday of that week, I meditated and tried to envision myself
having my account being successfully restored. Anyone else would've
just looked at the situation and said "Daniel, they've already written
their response. If they've already sent you bad news, it's not
going to just 'morph' into good news because of anything that you do at
this point". Well, that's what I had thought for most of my life
too, but since starting down this quantum-themed road, I've learned to look
at things differently. So this was going to be a true test for me
to be sure. Anyway, five days go by, Monday through Friday, without me
checking the message from Vimeo. The meditations had been making me
feel calmer and calmer, though I still wasn't rid of the worry just yet;
there still seemed the faintest possibility of me setting myself up for a
let down and having to practice my rationalization of why the universe
didn't favor me, and blah, blah, blah. But I kept at it until I
felt more and more at ease and until I felt the negative energy was all but
out of the way. Until finally, Friday came, I did one more
meditation, with deep breaths, positive visualizations, etc. Then it was
time for the moment of truth. I finally opened the e-mail response from
Vimeo and after reiterating what went wrong, they told me that they went
ahead and REINSTATED my account! All of my videos, and everything else
that went into my account are back online just as they were before! I was
super excited! It worked, Cynthia! This is the first time that I can
recall where something both highly unprecedented and in my
favor has happened! That was a major accomplishment for me and, I
feel, just the indicator that I needed that there really is something to
this whole quantum/meditative/lucid living process. This was about
two or three months ago that this happened, and since then, my account with
Vimeo has been just fine I'm happy to say. Also since then, there
have been some other experiences and synchronicities that have occurred
too, but that's another e-mail. :-D Hope you enjoyed hearing about
this as much as I did recalling it!
Note from Cynthia: Thank you so very much for sharing this
delightful experience with me! I love how you recognized a golden
opportunity to hold off on opening the message until you attained a state
of peacefulness of mind compatible with good news--well done! I
wish more people could recognize that when we recognize how life gives us
many such opportunities to bring ourselves into proper alignment with
enjoying how good it can get, even 'after the decision has already been
made,' it's really not too late. And as you point out so
eloquently, this has everything to do with the simple fact that we've not
yet observed the answer. I've also had experiences where I've
briefly experienced an unacceptable answer, to subsequently witness it
shift to something more enjoyable
Waking Up in Different Place
Sharon
Philippines
The two times I thought I teleported from one apartment to the other, I
knew it was emotion that played a big part. I didn't like where I was going
and was hurting to have to leave, so when I woke up I was in the same
apartment I wanted to be at, even if I knew I already moved to another
apartment. The landlady of the second apartment sent me the photo of my son
that I have left there. So I really did move! Where that time is, its
probably lost to my memory, in space time. I don't know. Another
example of my timeline jumping, I wanted to clean a flower vase with
plastic flowers in them, as it had collected dust. I was too sleepy, and I
said, “I will do it tomorrow.” I even told myself
I'll use fabric conditioner like Downy to make it smell good. The next day,
I woke up, and the vase had been washed and with the scent of Downy! There
was nobody in the house but me and my son. And I know he didn't clean it.
He was only 2 at that time. Another one, I wanted to make a herb paste to
cook with and I needed a mortar and pestle. I knew my mom had one at the
top part of a tall cupboard. But I wanted to go to the bathroom first. I
could not hold my pee, so I went to the restroom, and lo and behold, when I
came back to the kitchen the mortar and pestle were on the kitchen
countertop waiting for me! I had goosebumps; I thought there was a ghost
in the house. Also one time, I was walking near 711, and I wanted to
consciously create. So I told myself there are infinite parallel realities
all happening at the same time. And I would want to go to the one where I
found money in the street. And true enough, there was 300 pesos near the
doorway to 711, just as soon as I wished it. It was pitch dark and no one
was there. So I said, “It's a gift from the universe!”
I'm just glad there are people out there going through what I am. I'm just
glad to know this world is not rock solid, and that things are malleable.
Note from Cynthia: Thank you so very much for sharing these
first-hand accounts! I love the way you point out how you've
noticed emotion playing a big part in the reality shifts and quantum jumps
you've experienced. It sounds like you are also benefiting from
awareness of being part of something 'bigger than yourself' in which you
remind yourself that extraordinary things are possible, and there exist
many parallel possible realities within conscious reach. I get a
sense that you've been able to 'feel into' these adjacent parallel possible
realities, thereby making them much more accessible to you.
Spelling Adrenaline
Kathleen
Redmond, Washington, USA
Do you recall adrenaline being spelled adrenalin? Adrenalin
is the way I recall the word being spelled all the years until now, when
even Google spells it adrenaline. I've being reading the Medical Medium
books in an effort to better my health, and he talks about adrenaline quite
a bit, which is what got me going with this... Interesting, yet another
reality shift in the world at large.
Note from Cynthia: Yes, it's quite possible you've upleveled
with this reality shift--I love that idea! I'm intrigued that this
particular word is the one word you've noticed that has changed the way it
is spelled, other than the Berenstain Bears (that you remember as
Berenstein Bears). Thanks so much for sharing this!
Hi, Cynthia,
When we jump between universes, does the universe we left keep
running? Or cease to exist? Is there some kind of "prime
consciousness" making these jumps? I have trouble understanding how
there could be infinite "me's" each with their own lives and awareness that
I can suddenly inhabit.
— Rod
Dear Rod,
This question gets to the heart of the currently unresolved matter of which
interpretation of quantum physics is correct. Which is to say that
we do not yet have a definitive answer to this question. This
having been said, I've occasionally been able to jump back and forth
between at least a couple of different possible realities, and these kinds
of 'flip-flopping' shifts indicate to me that each of the possible
universes feels just as real as the others. What I surmise is that
the 'true reality' is the underlying consciousness that we each feel gives
us a sense of what is real, and what we care about, and who we think we
are--and the various possible physical realities are something like
footsteps in movie frames, with each footstep into a particular physical
reality corresponding with a selection at that moment of choosing to feel
and believe that reality to be the truth. And I'd guess that each
universe occupied with sufficient consciousness keeps running--including
aspects of our dreams and daydreams flitting away from the reality we
believe we're currently inhabiting.
lots of love and thanks,
— Cynthia

Hey,
I read all your articles regarding quantum jumping and reality shifters, is
it really possible to change your past or change a decision which you took
in past which result into a lot of bad consequences? Is there is anything
in the world out there who is able to give you a second chance? If it is
possible, can you explain how someone can do that.
— Pawan
Dear Pawan,
Perhaps the best way to answer this question is to say that yes, I do
believe any of us can definitely witness changes to history as if things
'had always been' some new-to-us way. With regard to influencing
reality so a certain decision is different that resulted in many
emotionally-felt consequences, that essentially requires a miracle.
While spiritual adepts might be able to see such results, there is as yet
no 'how to' manual or recipe with simple steps that anyone can follow to
achieve such results. The reason has to do with how interwoven our
consciousness and our identity is with all of our experiences and with
others in our lives.
lots of love,
— Cynthia

Dear Cynthia,
I knew about The Mandela Effect being named because of the belief that
Nelson Mandela died much earlier than "mainstream history" says, but I
didn't know that some people thought that they found a book where it
mentions that Mandela died in 1991. Check it out, and, also, check out some
of the comments that provide some possible quantum computing
explanations:
https://www.timelineshift.com/2016/08/south-african-book-from-1991-nelson-mandela-died-on-23-july-1991.html
— Mark
Dear Mark,
Thanks for sharing this with me, with essays written by South African high
school students, one of which includes mention of Nelson Mandela dying in
1991. I enjoy the comments on this page, which remind me a lot of
the discussions that used to happen in the "Beyond the Ordinary" on radio
station KRSE on these topics at the time the movie, "What the Bleep Do We
Know?!" came out in 2004. I was interviewed by "Beyond the
Ordinary" hosts Nancy Lorenz and Elena Young between 2004 and 2006, talking
about reality shifts and these various concepts of parallel possible
worlds. I've just posted on the comments on that page, since I see the
text on page 54 has apparently already changed from what it used to be to
something new—fascinating! Thanks so much for alerting me to
this!
with love and thanks,
— Cynthia

Dear Cynthia,
I heard your talk at Boulder Exo, and appreciate your service to humanity.
It was very interesting, and I liked many of the topics you touched on.
The 5G network internet of things is due to roll out by 2020.
Questions: Are you aware of this Internet of Things technology? Are
you getting any guidance that may shed some light on this technology? Is
it part of the AI Plan?
— Simon
Dear Simon,
Thanks for writing to me to let me know you attended and enjoyed my talk!
Yes, you are correct that there is a connection between 5G and Artificial
Intelligence. The 5G network rollout is the beginning of stepped-up
dependence upon Artificial Intelligence as the foundational architecture
supporting the so-called 'internet of things' capable of providing
'cloud-network synergy.' Currently, I have not yet seen one cohesive 'AI
plan' from humans working to develop various technologies, but rather there
currently exist various isolated, relatively narrow-scope applications of
AI and machine learning. At this juncture, there is not yet any Artificial
General Intelligence (AGI) that I know of that is seeking to create itself
as a kind of central overseer and primary problem-solver for humanity.
But with the convergence of new progress in machine learning and the advent
of 5G networks start to see the beginning of required conditions for such a
central AI system to begin.

Real Magic:
Ancient Wisdom, Modern Science, and a Guide to the Secret Power of the
Universe
by Dean Radin
Dean Radin emphasizes right from the start that the
scientific exploration of "Real Magic" has nothing to do with trickery nor
sleight-of-hand nor the occult, but truly is the real deal. Radin
defines this real deal as falling into three categories: "mental
influence of the physical world, perception of events distant in space or
time, and interactions with nonphysical entities." Radin subsequently
refers to these three respectively as: force of will, divination,
and theurgy.
Referencing and summarizing decades of relevant scientific research and
studies, Radin describes how magic is a natural part of our daily lives and
reality, accessible to us all. Radin provides both personal
first-hand experiences of extraordinary synchronicity, and dozens of pages
of references and sources that provide evidence of the existence of
psi.
I love how "Real Magic" is clearly organized, making it easy to read
sequentially or as an excellent reference book, and I love how it contains
valuable how-to tips on how readers can try their hands at remote viewing
and affirmations, in clearly worded, easy-to-follow steps.
Radin describes how recent historical bias toward materialism in science
has prejudiced open inclusion and discussion of psi research, providing
examples of how such partiality slanted in favor of material realism has
served to unfairly dismiss and at times even blacklist well-researched
scientific papers that flew in the face of editorial pre-existing
beliefs.
Yet despite the barely-concealed ridicule of a majority of modern-day
scientists regarding the reality of psi, declassified documents from the
American government's review of such programs as remote viewing (also known
as a valid "information transfer anomaly") meet all recognized statistical
and methodological criteria. Indeed, Dean Radin has some intimate
knowledge of government agency remote viewing projects, as he worked on
Stargate, a top-secret espionage program.
"Real Magic" succeeds at achieving Radin's goal of helping to "dissolve the
woo-woo taboo and its 'paranormal' baggage," as he throws down the gauntlet
and challenges us to realize, "Magic is real. Let's deal with
it."
