Most people are being gamed by algorithms tuned for profit. The recommendations and search results you get are precise, but often not accurate. Do the hard work of seeking out the solution in advance of the reward and recognition. Being prepared for an opportunity yet to come takes years and decades of faith-filled action and commitment to not simply accept the life you were handed. Here's my proof:<img src="https://syn.succeedwell.net/Portals/0/[BannerPath]" width="1" height="1"></p></div><div class="col-sm-2" style="max-width:200px;"><div class="portfolio-list"><div class="portfolio-item thumb-info thumb-info-no-borders thumb-info-centered-info mt-lg"><a href="#onusprobandi"><div class="thumb-info"><div class="thumb-info-box"><img alt="" src="https://succeedwell.net/Portals/0/images/admin/badges/Scotoma.png" class="img-fluid" /><div class="thumb-info-content"><div class="thumb-description"><h6 class="thumb-info-name"> <span class="thumb-info-inner" style="font-size:0.8em;"> onus probandi </span> <span class="thumb-info-type">Scotoma</span> </h6></div><span class="thumb-info-action-icon"> <em class="fa fa-link"></em> </span></div></div></div></a></div></div></div></div> <!--SOCIAL SHARE KIT --> <div class="row"><div class="col-md-12 mt-lg" style="float:right;"><div class="heading heading-border heading-middle-border heading-middle-border-reverse"><!--SOCIAL SHARE BUTTONS --><div class="ssk-group ssk-sm ssk-grayscale"><a href="" class="ssk ssk-email ssk-round"></a><a href="" class="ssk ssk-facebook ssk-round"></a><a href="" class="ssk ssk-linkedin ssk-round"></a><a href="" class="ssk ssk-pinterest ssk-round"></a><a href="" class="ssk ssk-reddit ssk-round"></a><a href="" class="ssk ssk-tumblr ssk-round"></a><a href="" class="ssk ssk-twitter ssk-round"></a><a class="h6" style="color:#CCCCCC;font-size:10px;">SHARE</a></div></div></div></div> <!--MAIN ARTICLE BODY BEGINS--> <div><div class="heading heading-border heading-middle-border"> <h3>Welcome back to <strong>SCOTOMAVILLE</strong></h3> </div> <p>What do you see? Look hard. Let me zoom in a little. Look hard. What do you see? Look even harder. I don't think this was here yesterday. Oh, the quarter yeah okay that's cool. No, this stuff - the green. Hmmm. PREPARATION</p> <p>We're going to talk about preparation, or it could be p reparation - getting ready before you have any solid evidence. Think about that for a second. A quarter? I don't know. That's cool. That might have been there for a long time. But that green stuff? That green that just showed up since the rain. Again what do you see?</p> <p>Days and days and days of planning - preparing and hoping and working hard. You see me packing despite an Airstream. You see RV parts that were ordered in advance of something showing up. You might have heard the phrase "fake it until you make it?" I'm not talking about faking it. I'm saying practice. Get your butt ready. Put in the effort.</p> <div class="heading heading-border heading-middle-border"> <h3>DEFINE P <strong>REPARATION</strong></h3> </div> <p>P reparation is the action or process of making ready or being made ready for use or consideration to work out the details of. To plan - in advance.</p> <p>For me being prepared was thinking about what was I going to do. Something about awareness and writing some notes what did I think about awareness and how would you get there and what were the tools and then putting in the hard work. You watched that whole thing that produced this now. This prepares me to go on tv and to be able to be in magazines and be in front of people with they believe something I have to say or at least are willing to test it.</p> <p>So basically preparation is getting ready for something in advance. Do you know where it starts? Right here (in your head) with your thinking. It starts with commitment and then doing the hard work and then finding your scotomas - like with me being poisoned recently...</p> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-7"> <!-- EDITOR BLOWS VIDEO UP <a class="mt-xs mb-xs mr-xs popup-youtube btn btn-secondary" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6ry_gUYhl8"> <h4 style="position: absolute; top: calc(50% - 24px); left: 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;"> <span class="label label-danger">  <em class="fa fa-play"></em>  </span></h4> <img class="img-fluid" src="https://img.youtube.com/vi/j6ry_gUYhl8/maxresdefault.jpg" /></a> --> <a class="mt-xs mb-xs mr-xs popup-youtube btn btn-secondary" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6ry_gUYhl8"> <h4 style="position: absolute; top: calc(50% - 24px); left: 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;"> <span class="label label-danger">  <em class="fa fa-play"></em>  </span></h4> <img class="img-fluid" src="https://img.youtube.com/vi/j6ry_gUYhl8/maxresdefault.jpg" /></a> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <p><span class="lead">I killed my gut with lectins from tomatoes and peppers you can see in the background.

It's my mindset of acting 'as if'.</p> <p>Doing the hard thing can often mean making a decent meal even when you're gonna sit down and eat it alone.

It means numerous times not knowing exactly what you're going to say until you say it. Preparation means starting now and here acting 'as-if'. It means doing the work figuring out the solution in-route not always knowing where you're going but putting in the effort and dealing with distractions - like heaters coming on. Preparation means to put in the effort in advance of the outcome you want. You've been watching me do it which means you can mimic me to find your scotomas. Take your strengths assessment to find out how you offend people and what's holding you back. Discover where your obstacles are in advance of arriving at your goal.
