99 and 1.
The Reality Tool. 7/29/2023 9:00 am. Saturday
Through what I have witnessed in my life and through advanced spiritual teachings, the greatest way to remain balanced in life is by the 99 and 1 rule. The 99 is the reality a person has created for them self, and the level of belief they have for that reality. The 1 is a tool that allows a person to go beyond their locked in reality.
A human mind, thoughts, and perspectives change every seven years. Look at the differences in age. Compare a newborn at age 0 to a 7 year old. Compare a 7 year old to a 14 year old. And then 21, 28, 35, 42 etc. Every 7 years a person completely changes and the older a person gets, the more wrinkles appear which shows that the human exterior changes as well.
If I was to get married at 21 years old and I told my wife that I love her 100%, at that exact moment that is an amazing statement. But now holding the 21 years old 100% love standard without having any more percentage to allow growth, and now I am 35 years old, my wife now gets a feeling that the relationship has not gone anywhere since I am still attempting to sell her my 21 year old 100% speech. She may even start the argument with words like, “I thought you loved me,” or “You say you love me but the saying and showing are not as one. “Our relationship feels like it is going nowhere because there is no growth happening.” My wife is now seeing through her 35 year old mind where I am still stuck in “my” 21 year old standard view of her, or what I perceive of her, or what I expect of her.

If I get married right now, I will tell my wife that I love her to my highest percentage, that being 99%. I will also tell her that I purposely hold an additional 1% because for me it allows me to be in continual thought of finding other ways to show to my wife of how much I love her. The 1% allows continual growth to thrive in the relationship. The 1% is not a doubt tool, it is a reality tool that keeps the relationship fresh, exciting and new. The new is exciting because now I am allowing my mind's standards to change, and as I mature into my older years, my standards mature as well. Being 60 years old while shouting at others your 21 year old standard, does not make the 60 year old childlike. It actually shows extreme immaturity (stuck in time)(false perception).
A person that has placed 100% into their all may find themselves lost once their all collapses. The person did not leave an open percentage to fall back onto which allows the minds-thoughts time to regroup. Let’s say that I am 45 years old and while waving my 21 year old standards at others, the others can clearly see that I am a mess. More and more people fall away from me mainly because my mouth is continually talking my truth, and now shouting my truth, while my ears remain absolutely closed. My mind is not even allowing the other person to be in the conversation but yet attempts to keep others in my much needed one sided conversation. With the ears remaining closed, the act of seeking growth or answers, becomes an escalating frustration. (“I need to convince you of what I think is right so once you agree, you have given me the additional confidence I seek to show that I know what I am talking about”). (“But if you disagree with me I will quickly throw you to the side and seek another person to trespass upon and infect with my immature or delusional truth”). |

In this case I am trapped within my 100% reality and as my frustration makes me totally lost because I am having difficulty finding direction in life. Suicide starts sounding like the final answer. If the 1% growth tool remained in the overall 99% reality framework, this would have allowed the suicide person a way to hear the others that are lovingly wanting to help the person who has fallen out of balance. The 1% tool serves as the greatest tool which gives strength to Marty to re-observe Marty’s life, and to make the necessary alignment changes to bring Marty back into a balanced life that is in the “now,” and not from past youth locked in standards.
Anytime a challenge surfaces, go to your 1%. The 1% never sleeps and is always available and most focused. The 99% is lost in distraction due to not wanting to leave its comfort of familiarity, and ego is satisfied with its level of knowing (not needing growth)(closed minded).
