I requested you to suggest a few spiritual topics I can explore and write a book on. Besides this, I don't have any other questions for you currently. Thank you!

Surabhi Rani,

Here are some topics you can explore:

- Unconditional Forgiveness

- Unconditional Love

- The nature of consciousness

- Philosophical zombies

- The difference between the real you/me/us vs our personas/egos

How to survive injustice when one works hard and not get compensated by getting a luck as reason for not getting compensated.

Your question is not in coherent English so I cannot understand it.

For instance, I don't know what "getting a luck" means.

Scott, what do you think about the tarriffs that might be imposed? Do you think that they will have great impact on our economy in this country, the U. S. Of America?

Hi, Shirley Labzentis,

Sorry, I'm just getting to this question now, and it appears to be outdated since the tariffs have already been implemented so there is no need to guess at what the effects will be.

However, as a rule of thumb, I typically choose to mostly avoid predicting the future, especially in regards to things that I cannot control, and instead choose to focus much more on being present and focusing on what is in my spatiotemporal present (i.e. my here and now at any given moment).

That's not to say I never do any predicting, but I am just very stingy with my time and energy when it comes to predicting. I need a really good reason and good potential benefit/profit from the prediction, one that is better that whatever else I could do and get with that same time and energy. Our time and energy is very limited.

Hi Scott,

How will you define a religion? What, in your view, will qualify something as a religion? Some views define baseball and football (soccer) as religions. Is Confucionism, e.g. , a religion?

Kind regards

Hi, Alida,

I believe I already answered this question in my response to the following question:

What is the difference between spirituality and religion?

Hi Scott,

In your book, "In It Together," the following sentence appears: Like a new paint job on a car, your literal clothes change, your appearance changes, your financial wealth changes, your name can change, the shape of your body changes, the height and weight of your body change, your memories change, the instinctive—even primitive—mechanical urges and feelings of your body such as hunger or anger change, ebb, and flow like the tides of a river.

Hughes, Eckhart Aurelius. In It Together: The Beautiful Struggle Uniting Us All (pp. 100-101). OnlineBookClub.org. Kindle Edition.

What exactly do you mean by "your memories change?"

Hi, Alida Spies,

Thank you for your question!

Hi Scott
I have a concern about the 100-Day Mentioning Challenge as far as I know, I have completed my 100th Day already but I received a 7-Day check-in. What is happening nothing is communicated about it. On Facebook, I am a top fan and nobody explained why I am a top fan. On day 99 I got an email that I was going to the next phase but the next phase was not clearly stated I was told to keep posting the books but not explained when.
Please clarify .

Hi Scott,

In your book, In It Together, you state the following: When it comes to your choices, you always get exactly what you want—meaning what you choose—with infinite ease.

Hughes, Eckhart Aurelius. In It Together: The Beautiful Struggle Uniting Us All (p. 115). OnlineBookClub.org. Kindle Edition.

Related to this, there have been some discussions about nobody being a failure; they're successful at what they choose, e.g. an alcoholic is successful at drinking—most alcoholics, drug addicts, etc. I've met, see themselves as victims of various things (unhappy childhood, abuse, falling in with the wrong crowd, etc.) meaning they don't take responsibility for their own choices or actions. That may sound harsh, but nobody can change another person (no human anyway). Regardless of how one wants to view this statement, e.g. from a religious perspective, not able to resist temptation, it is the truth. If they accept this truth, how does it change the person and their view of their life?

Kind regards
Alida Spies

How can I manage my professional life and follow my passion at the same time?

I believe I already answered this in response to the following question:

How are you able to balance your work and do it so efficiently? How do balance your time so well to accomplish all you do?

Hi Scott,
How does one get to choose a business name that is appropriate and inline with business principle ,at the same time catchy to the intended audience?

Hi, Wamboi Susan

This question does not appear to be written in fluent English.

Can you re-post it with more proofreading, and elaborate it a bit?

Also, if you aren't fluent in English, please have a friend who is fluent in English help you with it. That way I can understand what are you asking exactly and offer the best advice.

Hi Scott,

I have a question after reading your book.

You mention that if someone is constantly chasing money, they can never truly be at peace. I understand this depends on the context.

In the case of business owners, the pursuit of money often drives them to grow and succeed. How can one distinguish between the positive and negative effects of this pursuit?

I plan to read the book a second time—maybe I'll find that answer.

Hi, Stephanie Gail Stephen,

Thank you for question.

Can you provide a verbatim quote of what I actually wrote that you are paraphrasing as "if someone is constantly chasing money, they can never truly be at peace."?

That will help me better understand your question so that I can answer it.

It took you years to write the book " In It Together" what motivated you to write and complete the book. Also do you believe that the book answer all life's questions?

I think I already answered this question in my reply to the following previous question:

In the five years you were working on writing "In It Together", how were you able to get yourself into "the zone" when you wanted to work on your book? How do you get into that headspace and start writing such profound words?

Hi Scott,

I've noticed on Online Book Club, that if you want people to follow a rule, or do something[...]

For example, instead of [proposed change at OnlineBookClub]

Hi, Alida Spies,

I think you are confusing me with OnlineBookClub, and also are confused/misinformed about how decisions are made at OnlineBookClub.

I am just one human guy, and OnlineBookClub has over 5 million members. Countless events and decisions happen at OnlineBookClub even over the course of one night while I

Perhaps you can re-post your question but avoid the word "you" at all. In other words, write the question in only the third-person. That way you won't accidentally use the word "you" to confusingly refer to me and OnlineBookClub such that know which you one you are talking about.

Any members, including yourself, is just as capable as me of posting a suggestion on our Canny for vote on the other members. Those suggestions can be made, voted on, and implemented by the programming team all without my involvement or awareness.

I am not OnlineBookClub, and OnlineBookClub is not me.

It's also worth noting that when it comes to carrot vs stick approaches, OnlineBookClub has no way to use a stick approach to anyone. We aren't a government and we don't have any capacity to go to someone house and cause trouble for them.

I suspect you are confusing the absence of carrot as being a stick.

Indeed, that's the closet OnlineBookClub can come to using a stick. It can just say, hey, we won't give you the carrot unless you do XYZ according to the following specifications.

All OnlineBookClub has is carrots. It has no sticks.

Because one can simply not use OnlineBookClub, and one won't use it unless they are getting a carrot of some kind or another.
