How Do You Operate & What’s Your Motive?

“…This is all a process. What I am and what I want, is not to be the originator of the information as you seem to be saying is your process. My process is not like the Liz Greene’s of the world. For me, I want to inhabit the middle space and take the information others are interested in providing and making sure it is actually applied, and in coming up with insights from bridging different systems…”

Phoenix on Allowing Your Thoughts To Unfold.

This comment grabbed my attention because, Phoenix, guessed at my motive for thinking something through. I hadn’t considered my motive so I had to think about it. Phoenix also delineated his own process which is very different from mine.

As always, it made me wonder how other people operate. I feel this is worth considering or bringing to the surface. I figured I would lay out my thoughts on this in the hope it will encourage others to share their personal process.

When I was a kid, I really liked puzzles and card playing. Poker, but I loved, Pinochle the most.  I tend to be competitive so I was always looking for an edge. I also like to test my mind, and experiment with ideas.  Suffice to say, I enjoy thinking. I will spend time on this and I’ve learned to pull data from crazy places.

My main well of info, is the conversations I have had throughout my life. I have the ability to recall what was said to me, verbatim, in most cases, all the way back to when I was a kid. So that’s my crazy data center; if you told me something, forty years ago, chances are I can remember it. I’ve also read quite a bit and we have the internet, of course.

I feel I was born to think and talk and sort things and put them together in a way no one else can.  I am not claiming I am the best at this. I am claiming, I am unique. I think, independently, originally, creatively or whatever. I have out-of-bounds experience.  I’ve known this since I was a little kid. It’s my jam, as they say and it always have been.

At this point in my life, I have a lot of social experience. People also tend to tell me things, not just when consulting, but in general. I think this is because they feel they won’t be lost on me.

That’s a big factor for people who know things most don’t.  They generally keep their mouths shut, because no one will understand them or believe them; they’ll be dismissed and they also risk persecution. Well, I tend to believe what people tell me. I take everything seriously and if I don’t understand something, I will make a sustained effort to change my status. I dismiss, nothing and I’ve not the slightest interest in persecuting anyone as it would be a terrible waste of my time, never mind, the karma!

I also feel grateful and responsible. I do not want someone to be the swine someone wasted their pearls on. I do want people to tip me to things. I also have Uranus in my 7th; I tend to meet people out there, or ahead of their time.

At this point, I’ve taken full responsibility. I’m fully dedicated to using my skills on all levels. Specifically, I take information I received decades ago and correlate it with current events or problems people are having. I could do something else, but I don’t think I’m supposed to. I feel this way, but it’s also shown in my natal chart and now my progressed chart, which is pictured. I mean, look at that. I am going to be thinking and communicating and helping (6th house) until the day I die.  It’s as if a large part of me is contracted, for some years to come.

To, Phoenix, it’s less about originating a thought, then it is about using everything I have available, to help someone. I think the twenty-three years I’ve spent, creating content for free, illustrates this well. I wake up and try, every day. It’s been this way as far back as I remember.  I’m a specialist.

How do you parse information? What’s your process?  How about your motive or goal?
