There is no better and more apt current way of describing what I keep saying all the time - and what people keep arguing against - 

As we think - so we ARE! 

Ultimately all boils down to thought, my friend, deep thought. 

People make all sorts of excuses about "people really want that - but the government doesnt let them" (in countries like India, for instance, while ignoring the fact it's a democracy, so what you see in the form of elected leaders - well guess who chooses 'em! Might be a sozzled voting process in many regards till this day - but still the CHOICE is there). 

People make all sorts of excuses in a country like China as well - which to an extent - THESE days I can understand - but not fully. 

True, there are many in China that privately not just wish, but long for a more open and transparent government. 

If you were to ask them what they'd choose tho - solid economic growth - red hot - and an open government? 

Most people would choose the fomer, my friend. 

Even today, even with people traveling abroad from there, even with the Chinese knowing (and wanting to live like) the rest of the world do . . . 

The China model of control has ALWAYS been focused on economic growth above ALL. 

Once the shoe starts to pinch, everything goes awry - and we're seeing this in China right now in all regards, right down to apparently and I just heard this - expats banned on domestic flights (I ain't flown in a while - especally not in China - so I dont know!). 

Probably a rumor, but given everything going on, no-one really knows. 

Like the rumor of requiring covid tests to travel betwen different CITIES in China. 

I dont know. 

I wouldn't put it past the CCP to anally swab... ah, but wait. 

Why do I even bring the up? 

I guess one reason, because they're one of the very few people that engage with the Taliban - and recognize their legitmacy - along with Hamas, and other extremist groups globally. 

Of course, the liberals stay silent on that one!

But anyway, this isn't about China, friend. 

It's about a sad, sad situation unfolding in rugged Afghanistan. 

And yet, to be honest, a lot of us saw this coming - or something like this. I must admit, I didnt quite forsee anything like what has happened! 

Certainly not so quickly! 

20 years of U.S. backed rule in Afghanistan came to an end - and how? 

The leader bailing with helicopters full of wads of cash. 

And the Taliban taking the whole damn country over (it ain't small!) within a week, or less!

Most surprising, or may be not - in comparison to the extremely well equippied Afghan Army - the Taliban had nothing but hand weapons. 

Yet, you'd think the situation was the opposite. 

The Afghan army just GAVE UP - period. 

There was no actual fighting, if you can believe this!

And thinking about it ... to me, it's a massive failure on the most important front (Iraq is a similar story in some regards). 

THINKING - and failure to get the people in general to change the way they think. 

More importantly, not noticing what the people there really want ... and using THAT to change thought. 

Now, to be fair, the U.S. shouldn't be responsible for the world. 

To be fair, the U.S should never have entered Iraq, period. 

And to be fair, they gave the Tailban a chance to hand over Bin Laden. 

They didnt. 

IF someone is attacking you the way terrorists do, there is only option - so in my view, the US was RIGHT to enter Afghanistan - try to get a democracy going albeit highly flawed and extremely corrupt... 

Well - I dont know about the last bit! 

The US had one objective in mind - simple - root out terror. 

So much so that rare minerals in Afghanistan, that China, no surprise, you opportunistic beauty has jumped in to mine - were ignored as well (despite the global paucity of the same in many places). 

And possibly many other things I dont know about. 

Afghanistan in theory could have been a resounding succcess - a barrier against extremism in many ways - yet it went in the opposite direction despite all the money the US could pour into it (hint - China - just throwing money at something doesnt solve the issue!). 

And ESL etc... 

What didn't happen was simple. 

The people's thoughts ultimately didnt change. 

To me, it seemed the 20 years of US occupation brought chaos - which isn't necessarily anyone's fault either, and Biden's hasty exit in the way he did was just the icing on the cake. 

(and just why he had to choose 9/11 as the final exit date to Tom Tom 20 years ending or what not is beyond me. I mean, get them home asap - period - end of story!). 

And to me, a lot of the Army in Afghanistan were so weary of all of it that "at least now we know what to expect" seemed to be the motto as most didnt even bother to try and stop the Taliban. 

Despite being vastly superior in terms of weaponry etc they had. 

And training too!

Ultimately, they didnt WANT to do it. 

Why? 

Maybe the model of democracy YOU and I believe in so much doesn't work for them. 

Yes, it seems incredible that someone would want a dictatorial and tyrannical "regime" at the helm - not to mention internationally recognized terror outfits but remember, like my buddy from the Marines told me... 

Dont expect everyone to think like you, Rahul!

Sure, to you and I its the right thing to do, and it IS - humanity evolves. 

But not everyone agrees, myf riend. 

And you cannot force people beyond a point, let alone the collective subconscious. 

Some may argue lack of economic progress, any real progress in the country made it hard for people to see and believe what is possible. 

I dont think so. 

The U.S. presence in itself there was a very glaring reminder of what was possible... 

And second, all the money in the world can't buy feeling or will power. 

or DESIRE. 

Look at Saudi Arabia for one, they have all the dough in the world. 

But is the regime there any less brutal in many ways? 

I dont think so, my friend. 

Oman, with way less money is way less "extreme" in many regards... 

It's about thinking, my friend. 

To me its sad, but million dollar question - COULD their thinking have been changed, and SHOULD the U.S. have tried more (and allies) to do so? 

From a certain standpoint, perhaps - once you change thought processes, extremism naturally goes out the window. 

Another standpoint ... the PEOPLE ultimately have to want. 

Whose responsibility it is to make them want is another story!

I'd argue it falls upon the people. 

Ultmately. 

Others might disagree... 

None of that matters though now I suppose, with the chaos rapidly unfolding ... 

And, 20 years of ... comes to what? 

All comes full circle, to a huge NAUGHT. 

Ah well. 

Thought, my friend, is what changes things. 

And if there ever was more burning proof of this, it is what is going on in Afghanistan right NOW!

BEst, 

Rahul Mookerjee

P.S. - And while thought might not change (with regard to you) what is happening globally, you, my friend, can only take responsibility for YOU. 

And your life - and fitness. 

Do so now, my friend. Invest in the best fitness system out there today - and get started!

And, how I keep giving my daughter tutorials on this, even when I'm not PHYSICALLY present with her - YES, transmuting your thoughts is not just an art practised by those interested in the occult. 

It's something EVEYRONE does - whether we're aware of it or not!

Before I start, a quick "note". 

Tippany, they call it in Hindi I believe, hehe. 

In Claude Bristol's the Magic of Believing, he speaks of the following (via a third party) .. 

"Nothing is ever forgotten, you know! 

If I am having trouble recalling the name of a certain person, then I just sit back - close my eyes - and picture details like dress style etc associated with the person. And, the name has always come to me pretty soon after thar!" 

Napoleon Hill spoke about this in a different way in Outwitting the Devil as well where he spoke of his travails in terms of "finding the right person to publish his books". 

For three days he labored, almost that. 

And then he "gave up" - temporarily. 

":But I was exhausted. I had spent the better part of two days focusing on the list of names, and nothing came to mind!" 

He leaned back in his chair. 

And, in a flash, it came to him - the right name - as he rubbed his throbbing temples!

Two great lessons - but YOU, the reader is thinking "well thats them". 

they're unique!

They're the greats!

You can't expect everyone to think like you, or them Rahul!

Maybe. 

I think YOU can be a great too!

But anyway ... let's give you an example from my own life. 

ONce upon a time, my daughter was pranking me - doing all kinds of stuff. 

Putting giraffes (toy ones) -miniature ones at that on top of my tea container, and so forth (I was using a saucepan at the time). Hehe. 

Leaving "sticky notes" for me. 

And, "Daddy! A lizard jumped into your tea!" 

And so forth ... 

Anyway, after the last prank, I took some toys away and said "honey, since you're pranking me, and I got pranked (I didnt, hehe) - I get to keep 'em!) 

And then of course, 

"nooooooooooooo! My toys, Dad!" 

Hee, hee, I went.

"No, mine!" Typical kiddie stuff, you'd say, except ... 

And then I said this. 

"Ive hidden it" 

"Try and find it!" 

I was holdiing it underneath a window where she couldnt see it, hehe. 

And then when she came to that side of the window, I switched it, true, slapstick comedy style "Houseful 2" style to the other hand. 

And I tittered. Hehe. 

All riled her up a lot. 

And then, I gave her this. 

Honey, there's a riddle you can solve (she loves 'em) - and if you do, you'll get it!

"Its in something you put apples in - and you don't do it i.e. put apples in, but you CAN!" 

Trust me, she looked all over the place. 

She couldn't find it. 

But, you know what? 

The FIRST place she looked at - was the right place - she looked at it three times, no less! 

And, where was it? 

Well, I gave her a further clue. 

"Its nowhere where adults put their things" (she thought I hid it in my office). 

And so forth. 

she couldn't find it, hehe. 

Now, how I eventually got her to understand it was right there inf ront of her eyes ... all along, and that she LOOKED AT IT - was a different story!

But what I told her was this. 

Honey, just do something else for 10 minutes. 

"It'll come to you!" 

It didnt - but she learned an important lesson, one I told her. 

Think about a problem - then "forget it for a while". 

The answer will come! 

Anyway, where was the damn toy giraffe? 

Sitting in the basket attached to the cycle she looked at so many times, hehe. 

She finally found it, yes. 

(while I was writing this - or not - hehe. I was writing something yes, but of course, after beign told not to interrupt, she had to, and when I told her not to, she of course said how dare I. hehe! 

My little girl is classic, truly ME in a small version, truly a chop - and chip off the old BLOCK - and does everything I wasn't allowed to when young!) 

Including putting ice cubes in my tea - and making it iced tea when I prefer it ALWAYS WARM. Hehe. 

And, when she was three, dunking some color in my beer or something... 

Pranks that would have got us spanked like heck, or worse. Hehe. 

Kids! 

Gotta love 'em. 

Anyway back to what I was saying - key thing was this. 

It was out in the obvious, friend. 

She looked at it three times. 

I told her. 

Yet, it wasn't until after she sat down for a couple of minutes that she figured out the right place to look without consciously thinking... 

Think about that a bit, my friend. 

And you'll be amazed what your thoughts lead to!

Best, 

Rahul Mookerjee

PS - Zero to Hero! friend - if there was ONE book I'd promote in this email - it's this. Get it now. YOu'll love it!

The "rainbow pimp" as a certain "Tyrone Eric Milakuwhat Blanks" once called me "You got the HAIR, RAHUL!!!!!!!!!!" ... is wondering. 

He's been in a great mood all day!

He's been thinking. 

And as I think about something, and as the Universe opens up to ME - I had this thought. 

Am I half chinese? 

My Dad said it, of course. 

"You're half Chinese", he once said. 

I have no idea whether he really meant it, but somehow, those off the cuff remarks hit home - he probably did!

"But you skin yellow!" (true comment made by Anna, a property consultant who pinched at my skin when I tried to explain that I was ethnically Indian - not red either. Hehe). 

And a host of other comments. 

True, I've always been a chameleon, adapt at picking up the signals the Universe is sending me, hiding, biding my time (Bozo knows this, hehe) ... and much more. 

True, I could be "from anywhere". 

From Arabic to Spanish to American to South American to Chinese to "Asian" - well, Indian is probably the LAST thing someone would call me. They hardly ever do. Hehe. 

Hilarious, eh. 

But thats how it is - as we think, so we attract!

And I've always been this way my friend. 

Anyway, I think I remember telling you something about a group I created - which is still going strong? 

Two, in fact - two employment groups. 

Of course, with me yin and yang never goes away. 

With employment "Jack must play, he was never a dull boy!" 

So I created a kink related group too in 2014 - around the same time I created "Keeping it Real in China" - and the two employments groups - one networking group- and so forth. 

All free services, friend, top notch groups that people literally beg to get into. 

I've spurned offers from people wanting to buy the groups - literally. 

And all this for free - the tight ship I run, and the rules I implement - everyone complains. 

Those rules are ultimately though what attract people, because the groups serve the purpose for what they were intended. 

Unlike a certain "Keeping it Real in China" which I was pretty lax on moderating. 

Bozo Glyn and the rest had fun in that. 

When I left that group I gave it to Glenn, a guy from Australia, who then handed it to the Boozo. 

As another pal Alix once said, this group is no longer serving the purpose Rahul wanted it to!

And as Charles said, "don't give it to Glyn - he will RUIN it immediately". 

Which he did - but Charles wasn't willing to take up the mantle of responsibility either. 

Remember, my friend - everyone "wants". 

As I told a lady today, "everyone is bored, but no-one is speaking up, all are silent" (she added me out of the blue today - long time since we spoke - 2014 - and I almsot didnt remember her! But, the picture looked familiar, and ... well, that smile... and well, I'll get into that below!). 

Everyone wants - but no-one is willing to take RESPONSIBILITY and DO. 

Remember, what you're doing for free - or a community service - the laws of the Universe apply just as much to free services as they do paid, perhaps more. 

Sometimes, what we do for free pay us WAY more in satisfaction and even money down the line than we realize. 

Dongguan Expat, that website we created - back in the day - it literally gave me my next job when I was almost "done" with China and had almost given up!

I found Freddie through the site I created (well, Michael created it, but we co-did it, basically - it's a long story, y'all know that!). 

Same thing with these groups, except yours truly created all of them, never anyone else involved. I've had offers of co-moderation, all spurned. 

But anyway ... "everyone is scared to speak up". 

People are content to be the "drooping lily on the wall NO-ONE notices". 

People are happy to "NOT do" the thing - people are happy to NOT say the thing. 

People are happy, most of all, not to be the "nail that sticks out, because it gets hammered the first". 

With all that said, where are we NOW? 

Ah, of course, I gotta be interrupted just as I sit down to write to you ... 

Back soon... 

Ah, I'm back - back after a break. In the past, I'd get SO irritated at losing my train of thought - now? I prefer not to, but blessed is the state of mind I can sit here, write to you, not worry about losing my train of thought even after being interrupted - something most ADVANCED writers cannot do, trust me. 

Anyway .. .

So another group I had rules for, but never went anywhere was the "kink" group - which of course turned into an idiotic porn group with idiots spamming it. 

I clamped down, but then no-one talked. 

No-one my friend, especially these days is interested in real conversation. 

"We just wana look at videos". 

Fuck, how the hell do you CONVERSE without the other person being frank about their opinions etc? 

As for kinks trust me, we ALL have 'em. 

It's a matter of whether we're smart and sensible about the, or a Bozo Schofield. Thats a choice we can all make. 

Anyway... 

Like I told you before I gave the group to Gubo, and I left. 

I've no idea where Gubo is. 

And remember, I never hid my face - identity etc as a lot of people did on there. 

Yours truly, always transparent and open - and TODAY, as I was thinking about future plans, she added me. 

I didnt know who it was, but I knew I knew her, I asked. .. 

Turned around she was part of the group - and after we chatted, she lamented the group went nowhere after I gave it up. 

The number of members stayed stagnant. 

NO conversation, even less than before... (we had some thought provoking conversations in there, I'll tell you that!). 

And ... so I've asked her to find out who the admin is, I'll probably take the group back - and run with it. 

The time is NIGH, my friend, for miracles to happen. 

Yes, I know you on this list are thinking "he's going all esoteric on us again", but life, my friend - that is the only way. 

As I have written SO MANY times, life comes full circle. It always, always does... 

And on that note, I'm off to talk to Maria. 

Now, before I go - 

The "pre-sales" cycle for Lumberjack Lodestone Fitness - is rapidly coming to a CLOSE. If you want in at the price now (I will price it FAR higher down the line) - then take action NOW. 

And second, those two copies of Fast and Furious Fitness "pure Gold" - the Collector's Edition must go, I've already had interest, but I'll giv eit a few more days for you guys and then if no-one takes action (on those books - curiously, sales are ROARING on the other books) ... then away they go. 

All for a good cause!

Best, 

Rahul Mookerjee

Life's a trip, eh. The "vacation before death", a saying Dwayne use!

Thats some trippy ass shit, Holmes!

ENJOY IT!

- Rahul Mookerjee

PS - "I'll leave the groups to Rahul!" Hehe - So said even Glyn Bozo "Popko Schofield" once... 

Yes, even Bozo sometimes gets it. Hehe. 

In 201.... Well, I can't remember, when but there have been plenty of instances like this in mainland China!

The one I'm referring to was when a lady literally paraded a naked Bozo - not Glyn for a change - through the streets of somewhere, in Fuzhou, I believe (I can just see the Bozo Googling and trying to find th epicture, hehe - but yeah, Bozo Glyn do so, news had a picture too!) ... and, stopping at a bus stop in rain or something. 

Created a massive furore back then. 

But really, in a country like China,with more delectable girls and Nazi feminists than you can say "voila!" - it ain't surprising. 

On the other site, I wax lyrical about the ladies at the border in Louhou, for instance, who publicly slap their husbands, and they hang their heads and do nothing - - and th eBozos (yes, like Schofield) who that turns on (believe me it ain't a turn on for most in real life though!) ... 

I wax LYRICAL about groveling boyfriends, the man - woman ratio in China, the desperation many men (and these days, girls too) SHOW to "find the right mate" ... 

And so forth. 

Then there was a clown who was pulling a highly drugged tiger in China on a dog leash and Tom Tomming it. 

I remember thinking, dude, you better get out of it's way when that thang is PISSED!

Literally. 

But Bozos like that kinda crap - much like what the Chinese do the majestic tiger and brown bears in their horrible animal farms. 

It's horrible. 

The mangy looking animals for one, they really disgrace Mother Nature (the Chinese, not the animals -those that they LET live that is. They eat damn near everything in case you didnt know!). 

But it always makes me angry to see the mighty tiger humbled like that due to forces OUT of its control. 

But anyway ... myself. 

I keep getting asked this. 

"With your background, why not work a job, friend". 

"You'd make a ton!" 

Ah, but that ain't the reality. 

ALL the jobs I've been had - have not paid me what I was worth, and expected me to be a Bozo grinder that delivers results day after day, and gets peanuts for it. 

Not all ,actually, China jobs were a tad better in terms of pay... 

(or I wouldn't take 'em, period - and YES what I consider decent pay is what most Bozos and so called employers consider "sky high" - of course, when it comes to THEM ... HA! It's never enough) 

But anyway, I will always remember a comment an old boss once made in THAT job. 

At the time, the company was three people "old" and growing by the day. 

Sales - yours truly - was the one making it grow and how!

LEAPS AND BOUNDS! 

They never even expected that sort of performance from the get go, as a certain "Ravi" once told me "Rajesh was expecting you to settle in for a while, and then deliver - you didnt need that weaning in period at all!" 

"He's very happy with you!" 

All true , my friend. 

Of couse, what I GOT for my efforts - anything but commensurate. 

And the minute I asked for more, it started to fall apart (see the book). 

Thing is, with my background, people have this subconscious "he won't work for what we want him to" thinking, and despite them liking me, or not, this is ALWAYS the case. 

They always expect more, and want to pay less - operations, for instance at the time was not just doing nothing, but wasn't contributing to the bottom line one damned bit, yet, he got more than 2x what I was getting. 

SALES!

The lifeblood of any organization!

Read more in the book, of course... 

YES, their sales manager there for years couldn't convert leads coming on a platter to him. 

But anyway, boss made the comment about hiring "a third person" in charge of all three of us - which of course everyone was against - well, I wasn't asked, the other two were. Hehe. No-one asks me these things, because "how dare he!" 

(of course, they did eventually hire someone supposed to report to me, except he never did, and that was their way of saying "goodbye" i.e. skills transfer to him- no need to pay me what I was worth - its that sort of short sighted thinking that keeps people and companies from growing. But yeah, maybe they never wanted to grow (boss said that once, to his credit)). 

So he never hired that person, but to me, he turned around and said this. 

"That guy needs an office, Rahul He's a senior person, from IIM!" 

IIM is some fancy shmancy instittute in India - the Tom Tom's keep Tomming it. 

(today, people from there are driving cabs for a living, it's been going on for years). 

Nothing against, cabbies, but the Tom Tomming about fancy degrees - I've spoken out against it for years, and the facts bear me out. 

Just because you're someone that sat through college or fancy or not, doesnt guarantee squat shyt. 

Hehe. 

Most real achievers didnt even make it past high school in many cases, let alone college. 

But anyway ... 

I remember thinking "He deserves a room, they deserve more salary, yet the person getting you results NOW - what do you give HIM?" 

(and this dude, remember, he hadn't even joined as yet. Somehow his fancy degree made him more valuable? 

I call BS. Haha.

Fact is, their thought processes were "how dare Rahul think HE is valuable, just because he has overseas experience, which we will never ever have".

Aha. I hit a sore spot, I can feel it... )

Haha. 

I couldn't say that, of course, then. 

The only time you can truly be honest in a job is when they're fed up with you enough to fire you. Hehe. 

Else, the farce of bosses saying "be honest' is just a farce. 

They want Tom Tom's, monkeys and Bozos. 

I've never been that!

To me, I'd rather have the risk of working for myself - and the joy. 

No rules, nothing reporting, nothing doing. 

I make the rules - I'm the one that takes the wins - the losses - all of 'em! 

I've ALWAYS been that way, and always will be ... 

And I admit it, I was PISSED at that job. 

We were all at the same level, yet, THEY got an office, more benefits, I got exactly .. what? 

F-all in the grand scheme of things. 

Despite producing the polar opposite, which is the point of me saying this - it isn't because I miss the job. Hehe. 

Anyway, such is life working for others. 

I highly recommend you NOT to. 

Creating, and having the ability to create is what counts. 

Do so, you'll be ont he right track for life - and a hell of a lot happier to boot. 

Best, 

Rahul Mookerjee

PS. - Remember, the two copies reamining, Collector's Edition .. 

PPS - In short they want Bozos on dog leashes, I was never that ... Hehe. 

I still remember, in Oman, they had this idiotic requirement "to wear ties". 

To someone who can barely stomach formal wear at it's barest, ties? 

As Anupam, a guy there once put it (when yours truly, of course wasn't wearing one) ... 

"Gale ka patta kahan hai! Boss aa raha hai, Boss will be pissed!" 

He did not say "pissed", he said "Boss is very serious about that!" 

i.e. where's your dog collar (in jest) - the boss is very serious about it. 

Like, why? 

That influence results any which way? First thing you know, I ain't no damn model though I could be, but fact is, thats another means of BS Control - there was no need for that in an "IT technician" position. 

More foolishness from the Bozo factory.
