INFOGEDDON - LIVING IN A TRUTH OPTIONAL WORLD


Internet has become the most powerful instrument of social change in history, and it reflects our collective consciousness.

It’s the final battleground that will determine the outcome of human history.

It’s important to understand that data is not neutral. It’s always collected by people and organizations that have an agenda.

People who control the flow of information, who collect and control the data are the ones who will rule the world.

In 2021 over 4.9 billion people use the Internet, and 90% of them access Internet using a smartphone.

Nearly a million new users come online every day, and average internet use is 4 hour and 25 minutes a day.

4.2 billion people are active social media users, and 20% of the world’s population uses facebook.

People who spend four hours a day on internet are slipping into a digital world - a type of virtual reality in which the content is created by other people.

Internet changes the way we look at the world, and the way we look at ourselves.

Internet changes the way we interact with world, and massively effects the way we interact with other people.

Internet changes how we feel about ourselves and how we feel about other people.

Internet changes everything, and that is why the Positive Thinking Network exists.

The world is rushing headlong off a cliff of change, and the Positive Thinking Network endeavors to push that change in a positive direction.

The Positive Thinking Network has thousands of web pages sending a positive message around the world.

We are changing the world one person at a time, one web page at a time, and one podcasts at a time. I hope we win.

Living In A Truth Optional World

Internet has facilitated our passage into a truth optional world.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn summed up life in a truth optional wold when he said, “We know they are lying, they know they are lying, they know we know they are lying, we know they know we know they are lying, but they are still lying.”

Internet has made it possible for liars to easily reach a global audience, and to do it cheaply.

We are in a perfect storm of prevarication.

Businesses lie. Governments lie. Politicians lie. Religious leaders lie.

The problem isn't just the lies, it's the agenda behind the lies that's important.

In a truth optional society, some people will say anything to achieve their ends.

Not all agendas are evil, but lying to achieve an agenda is evil.

The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, makes it possible for societies to function.

A functional society has a social contract based on trust, and trust is based on truth.

A society without trust is a hellish place to live.

Talking Points

Truth is not highly valued in our talking point world.

Talking points are mostly quarter truth, half truth, and often outright lies.

The instant you hear talking points, you know you are listening to someone who has a loose relationship with truth.

When liars lie using talking points, we know they are lying, and we make our best guess to ferret out exactly what they are saying.

What is their agenda? Why are they lying? Who are they trying to reach with their lies?

If the only way people can achieve their agenda is through lies, their agenda is unabashedly evil.

Liars are willing to do anything to achieve their evil ends, and if they can't do it by appealing to our baser instincts, they will do it through intimidation.

Lies work, but not forever.

Societies based on lies ultimately fail.

What Is The Future Of Publishing?

Publishing is changing because we are changing the way we consume information. The attention span of the average human being has dropped from hours to minutes to seconds. This decrease in attention span is affecting the way information is delivered to us. We want it condensed into tiny bits that flash through our life, and on rare occasions we may actually focus on it for minutes at a time.


Sacred Life Holy Ground

In the twenty-first centuty we are witnessing the desecration of planet earth on a global scale. There is massive disregard for the sanctitiy of all life and wanton destruction of holy ground. Sacred life and holy ground are ignored, forgotten and neglected, and when that happens, endangered species do not stand a chance. People are the only ones who can preserve sacred life and protect holy ground. No one else can do it. Everyone must take it personally.


If You Like Eating Plastic, Put Fish On Your Menu

You better get used to eating plastic, because it soon will be in every meal you eat. Microplastics have massively invaded the food chain, and they are in every glass of water you drink. It is now literally impossible to eat a meal without ingesting microplastics. Filling your body with plastic is even worse because of the dangerous chemicals attached to and associated with the plastic.


Zero Plastic Degredation After 25 Years Under 2 Miles Of Ocean

More than 25 years ago, a research ship threw these items into the Pacific Ocean. The coke can and plastic container sank to a depth of 4000 meters (more than 2 miles deep). More than 25 years later, they retreived the items, and the writing on the coca cola can was still legible, and the plastic food package remained unchanged. Plastic in the deep sea environment appears to live forever without sign of significant degredation. I remember reading about New York City loading their trash on a barge, and taking it out to sea where they dumped it. Obviously that is bad for the environment, and the plastic lasts for many lifetimes.


A Whale Named Blade Runner

In 2001 a female humpback whale was run down by a ship in Sydney, Australia, and the ship propeller made a series of deep cuts on the whale's back cutting the fluke as well. The whale was given the name Blade Runner, and has since been sighted multiple times in Australia as well as Antarctica, and in some sightnings she had a calf. When whales migrate across shipping lanes, large ships sometimes accidently injure or kill whales. It's amazing that Blade Runner survived. Some whales rest and sleep on the surface, and this humpback could have been run down while resting or asleep.


17,000 Fishing Boats In China's Fishing Armada

The Chinese fishing fleet can only be described as an armada. It's the world's largest fishing fleet with nearly 17,000 fishing boats, and it has spread out across the world. The Chinese fishing armada is literally plundering the bounty of the seas. Types of fishing illegal in China are practiced by the Aramada when it is offshore. A segment of the Chinese fleet descended around Galapagos with 325 fishing boats skirting the edge the Galapagos Exclusive Economic Zone. The Chinese fleet intermittently switched off their satellite communications making it impossible to tell if the boats were engaged in illegal fishing in the waters of Galapagos.


Tracking Fishing Vessels At Sea With AIS

Global Fishing Watch is using AIS as one of its tools tell what fishing boats are doing and whether it is legal or illegal. A fishing boat creates an AIS track that tips you off as to the type and location of fishing they are doing. Purse Seiner fishing vessels travel in a tight circle when they set their nets and bring them back in. Long liners travel back and forth on the same course as they set and retreive their long lines. Trawlers move at a constant speed dragging their gear behind them. Global Watch continues to collect AIS and in combination with artifical intelligence, it's getting easier monitor the activities of the fishing fleets.

Real Power: Maxingout On God's Love

God is love and works by love. The power and presence of God in my life is love. Every time I see love, I see God's hand at work. Every time I feel love, I experience God's presence and power. When my mind is full of thoughts consistent with God's love, my thoughts are healthy, and my mind is exactly the way God means for it to be. When my heart is full of emotions consistent with God's love, my emotions are healthy, and they are exactly the way God means for them to be. There is no limit to how good my life can become when I open my heart and mind to the power of His love. God loves and accepts me the way I am, but He loves me to much to let me stay that way. He loves me from the top of my head to the tip of my toes, and it does not get any better than that. For the rest of my life I will max out on God's love. Real Power: Maxing Out on God's Love is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.

Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book

Many people believe change is impossible. Most of the time they are confusing personality with personal behavior. The basic human personality is relatively constant over time, but human behavior can and does change. Personal change happens when people change the way they think. I have numerous patients formerly addicted to meth, cocaine, heroine, and alcohol, who escaped their addictions without ever going to rehab for treatment. They simply arrived at a point in their life where they no longer wanted to be prisoners of their addictions. They had experienced enough misery to last ten lifetimes, and they said no more. They changed their belief about who they are and what they can do with their life, and they became a different person who was chemical free. I am grateful to those patients, because they proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that people in the worst circumstances can and do change. Because of them, I am committed to helping people change their lives one belief at a time using positve self-talk. Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.


Positive Self-Talk Silver Book

You can change who you are by changing what you say when you talk to your mind. Just be sure you are speaking a language your mind understands. Your brain speaks to you in its own language, and if you speak to it in the same way, it immediately responds in a powerful fashion. That’s why change proceeds most rapidly when you talk to yourself using the language of the mind. If you don’t speak the language of the mind, you may as well stop talking until you learn it. The three most powerful components of the language of the mind are images, sounds, and emotions. When my brain wants to get my attention, it does not send a text or an email. It blows me away with sights, sounds, and emotions. If you want to get your brain’s attention, you need to do the same thing. Send a message full of sights, sounds, and emotions. Start speaking the language that your mind understands. Positive Self-Talk Silver Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.


Positive Self-Talk Gold Book

Mark Twain wrote, “Life does not consist mainly, or even largely, of facts or happenings. It consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that is forever blowing though one’s head.” Mark Twain was right. Life consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that blow through your mind. The events of life can be trivial, tragic, and even monumental in nature, but the events themselves have little power. It’s the storm of thoughts about those events that controls our lives. Surviving the storm of thoughts is how we spend most of our time. No matter what we do, the storm still blows, and to a significant degree shapes our lives. Surviving the storm is something we do every day all day long. An entourage of thoughts accompanies each event in our lives. Those thoughts can be positive, negative, or most likely, something in between. Those thoughts are the battleground where we come to our agreement with life. Those thoughts define who we are and what we can do. You need to learn how to control the storm of thoughts blowing through your mind. Positive Self-Talk Gold Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.


Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

Overcoming depression is hard, perhaps the hardest thing you will ever do. But if you want to have a mind free from depression, nobody can stop you. Your emotions are a reflection of your thoughts. When you change your thoughts, your emotions automatically follow. You don't have to battle the negative and twisted emotions echoing in your mind. Instead you need to learn how to change the way you think, and your emotions will naturally take care of themselves. The challenge you face in depression is to change the way you think. If you want to change the way you think and feel, you are going to have to change your inner dialogue. You are going to have to talk to your mind in a different manner. A persistently positive focus creates a consistently positive mind. The battle for a positive mind is fought on the battlefield of focus. In order to break the back of depression, you will have to learn how to persistently and consistently control your mental focus. Zero Tolerance to Negative Thinking is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.

Zero Tolerance to Negative Thinking - David J. Abbott M.D.

Change first happens in my mind. Whatever I am or ever will be is first found in my mind. In order to have a new life, I need a new way of thinking. Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

I can change who I am by changing what I put into my mind.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

Although I can't control all the events of my life, I can control what I put into my mind. I have sufficent control over my mind to shape the outcome of my life in a way that reflects my goals and aspirations.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

I have an infinite number of future lives that I can live, and the way that I run my mind determines which of them it will be.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

No matter how positive my life is, thinking negative makes it worse. No matter how negative my life is, thinking positive makes it better. No matter what happens, I choose to think positive.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

Every problem has a silver lining, and when I solve the problem, I get to keep the silver lining. The more problems I solve, the richer I become.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

When I focus on a thought, I force my mind to look in the direction of that thought. When I consistently focus on it day after day, my life moves in that direction. The focus of my mind expands into my life.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

If I am having trouble getting permission to do the things I want to do, I need to take a look in the mirror. The person in the mirror is the only one who can give me permission to go for my dreams.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

A positive mind is not an accident. It's the product of positive mental focus. A persistently positive focus creates a consistently positive mind.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

I am the only one who can change my life, because I am the only one who can change my mind.Zero Tolerance To Negative Thinking

Positive Christian Self-Talk

Positive Christian Self-Talk is as much about God as it is about you. The self-talk contained in this book is designed to change your life. You learn to think the way that God thinks and speak the way that God speaks so that your self-talk has real power. It's time to get in agreement with God about who you are and what you can do with your life. It's time to speak your new life into existence. Jesus said, "As you believe, so shall it be done unto you." Jesus was talking about positive expectations. You don't get what you want, you get what you expect. It doesn't matter if your expectations are positive or negative, you still get what you expect. If you want positive self-talk to work in your life, all of your self-talk must be forged in the fires of positive expectations. It's time to jump into God's ocean of love and have a life changing experience. Positive Christian Self-Talk points your life in the right direction and gives you the power to make the trip. Positive Christian Self-Talk is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.


You don't need to see far into the distance. You only need to see where to take the next step, and positive self-talk helps you take that next step.Positive Christian Self-Talk

God has already given you the ability to achieve excellence in at least one area of your life. You already have all the tools you need to be the best you can be and do the best you can do. You just have to do it. Positive Christian Self-Talk

God never asks you to do something without giving you the resources to make it happen.Positive Christian Self-Talk

When you get in agreement with God about who you are and what you can do with your life, your self-talk develops real power and rises to a new level.Positive Christian Self-Talk

Your mind is waiting to hear from you, and you need to send it a positive message.Positive Christian Self-Talk

You need to get in agreement with God so that your self-talk points you in the right direction and gives you the power to make the trip.Positive Christian Self-Talk

You need a new way of thinking. More than anything else, you need to learn how to think as God thinks. Until you get your thinking straightened out, your self-talk will make you stumble. Bad thinking creates bad self-talk.Positive Christian Self-Talk

God is the God of the possible. Impossible is not found in his vocabulary, and it should not be found in yours. Everything is possible when you think the way God thinks.Positive Christian Self-Talk

You don't get what you want. You get what you expect.Positive Christian Self-Talk

When Jesus said, "As you believe, so shall it be done to you," he meant exactly what he said. He created a universe in which positive expectations rule. It doesn't matter than much what you want. It's what you expect that counts.Positive Christian Self-Talk

Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Living small serves no great purpose. Living as if you are a great person is a powerful idea that changes lives, and those who take it seriously change their world. Living as if you are great means you live as if your dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. You act as if you cannot fail. In order to live as if you are great, you have to think the way great people think, talk the way great people talk, and act the way great people act. Great people think, talk, and act their dreams into existence. If you ever become great, it will be because you think great thoughts, repeat great self-talk, have great expectations, and act as if you cannot fail. Some people wrongly believe that change is impossible. Leopards don't change their spots, and zebra stripes are forever. But people are different. People change their stars. They change their stripes, and their spots disappear in an instant of time. That instant happens the moment they develop positive expectations and believe they have the power to change. Positive self-talk and positive expectations can take you anywhere you want to go. Positive Self-Talk Purple Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.


When you change your expectations, you change your life. Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Positive self-talk does not work forever. It works a day at a time. If you don't repeat positive self-talk every day, it will not work, because every day you must build a new bridge to your dreams.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

If you are repeating the same self-talk today that you did a year ago, something is wrong. If you have the same expectations today that you had a year ago, it's time to make serious changes. If you want to live as if you are a great person, new self-talk and new expectations are in order.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Great people have great expectations, and they continually work on their dreams. They believe there is no limit to how good their life can become.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Limiting thoughts are a disguised form of negation. They are a way that I say no to life while pretending that life is saying no to me.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Limitations are a subtle form of negativity that is socially acceptable. They don't have a bad sound or smell. It even has the appearance of maturity to not struggle with reality and to accept the limitations that appear to be present in the world.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

There is no reason to place limits on any worthwhile objective until I try to make it happen. Limiting beliefs are a choice, and I choose to not have any.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

If I don't like what I hear when my mind talks to me, I have the power to change the message.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Positive self-talk gives me the power to control the focus of my mind.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Positive self-talk is not about where I have been. It's about where I am going.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book

Positive Self-Talk Red Book

A persistently positive focus creates a consistently positive mind. The same is true of your self-talk. It must be persistent, positive, and specific to have maximum impact. Lack of persistentce has laid more dreams to rest in the cemetery of failure than any other cause. There is zero chance that you will succeed on your first attempt. If your dreams are great, You will fail again and again on your way to the top. Before you can be great, you have to be good. Before you can be good, you have to be bad. Before you can be bad, you have to try. Millions of people stop at try. Thousands get stuck at bad. Hundreds quit at good. A few go all the way to great. If you don't have persistence, you willl never make the trip from try to bad to good to great. Positive Self-Talk Red Book helps you develop a persistently positive focus so that you can develop a consistently positive mind. More than one-hundred Power Graphics contain powerful thoughts that you need to have in your mind. Positive Self-Talk Red Book is now available at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.


A persistently positive focus creates a consistently positive mind. Positive Self Talk Red Book

Your brain is an affirming machine, and it spends all its waking hours affirming things about who you are and what you can do with your life. You brain is positive about everything in your life. It may be wrong, but it is never in doubt.Positive Self Talk Red Booke

Your mind is positive about many things that are simply untrue. It affirms all of your limiting beliefs from the past.Positive Self Talk Red Book

Although your mind is an affirming machine, you don't have to believe everything it says. If you believe everything your mind tells you, it will not be long before you are in trouble. The brain excels in its ability to pump out affirmations, but it's a miserable failure at separating truth from error and the positive from the negative.Positive Self Talk Red Book

When your mind pumps out negative affirmations, it becomes a weapon of mass destruction that ruins your life.Positive Self Talk Red Book

The war for a positive mind is fought on the battlefield of focus.Positive Self Talk Red Book

If you are not living your dreams, you probably are getting hammered and nailed on the battlefield of focus. You simply must get your focus right to win the battle for a positive mind.Positive Self Talk Red Book

It doesn't matter how fast you run, if it's in the wrong direction, you will never reach your dreams. It doesn't matter how much self-talk you repeat, if it's the wrong self-talk, you will stay right where you are or make your problems even worse.Positive Self Talk Red Book

Focus give me the leverage I need to move my mind and my world. A persistently positive focus really does create a consistently positive mind.Positive Self Talk Red Book

The easiest way to push my mind in a positive direction is to persistently focus on positive things.Positive Self Talk Red Book
