Blissipline is not something you can easily find on the internet as it’s not a formal word. But, Google it, and Urban Dictionary will gladly explain you the meaning of this not-yet-famous term, and give you the first hints of how important it may be in your life.
According to ColleteKenney on urbandicionary.com, Blissipline is “…the combination of Bliss and Discipline. The term is used in the context of being in the now (bliss) as you strive towards achieving your goals (which takes discipline). With blissipline you no longer pursue your goals with grim determination or use fear to motivate you. Instead, there is a joyous energy behind everything you do. You are in the now, and the steps towards your goal are a blissful journey rather than a means to an end.”
So, putting it in simple words: Blissipline happens when you dedicate yourself to achieve a goal, but enjoy the whole process. Blissipline does not focus on the final step to reach your dreams, but on the whole path itself. Quoting Allan Watts, Blissipline can be understood as something playful… something light, in which every moment is just as relevant (or even more) than the very final part of the process… Blissipline is like music: You don’t listen to song aiming for it to end, but for the pleasure you have in every second it is playing. Sometimes you even repeat it, just for the joy of starting all over again!

Blissipline is Flow!

And, even though you may think this is unfocused and seems more like a “peace and love” theory, it may be the key to achieving a life of true success, and true happiness. Take a look at this image below, which represents this idea quite well:

We could say the clothes and the chair are representing success, while the posture and smile clearly refer to the happiness of such moment.
HOW TO FIND BLISSIPLINE IN YOUR LIFE
Learning about Blissipline is not difficult. The idea is simple, the message is clear. BUT, bringing it to your life requires some trickier actions. The most important of these actions is connected to honesty. More precisely, to being honest to yourself. If you are to feel happy and joyous about something, it must be aligned with who you are, with who you want to be.
Secondly, stop trying to be in control of everything. The only constant in life is change. Both people and things are transient, and trying to control them means you don’t want them to change… you want them to be the same. But, it will never happen.
Things will continue changing, people will do the same… they will come and go from your life… Accepting the impermanence of life is an important step towards a more Blissiplined life, too.
And, the last thing I could mention to bring Blissipline into your life is Flow. Not Flow, the English course I work at… no….
I am talking about Flow, a state of mind and spirit which focuses mostly on the Present, on the NOW. There’s no point in living in the Past, right? If there’s something important about your Past, explore it in your memories, learn everything you can with it, but remember…. come back, and use this in the Present. Also, don’t get too worried about the Future. We are living the here and now, and worrying about the Future means you don’t believe you are doing your best today. If you cherish the Present… if you really put your life in this transient moment we live in… if you do it, then I’m sure your Future will bring positive outcomes. Negative things are part of life, we can’t escape them. But, they, too, are transient, and shouldn’t stop us from living our Flow!
According to Jason C. Brown, there are 11 pillars of Blissipline. My version was a little shorter, with three important changes in our lives to achieve it. Take a look below to check his pillars:

So… Are you ready to live a life of Flow? To explore life to its fullest? To open up and embrace the transient beauty of now?
Welcome aboard! We are Flow, and we are here to help you.

Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27.

By
Muito interessante pessoal, jamais imaginei como se media isso! abraços, Ivan Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27. A nomenclatura dos pregos é algo bastante desconhecido da maioria das pessoas. Isso ocorre porque há muitos padrões no mercado. Existe uma equivalência aproximada entre elas, mas as usuais estão em Polegadas Inglesas x BWG, JP x LPP e ainda o padrão métrico oficial, mm x mm. Entenda o que significam estas siglas: Polegadas Inglesas: multiplique o número correspondente por 25,4 para ter o comprimento em mm. BWG (Birmingham Wire Gauge) e JP (Jauge de Paris): são tabelas próprias que indicam o diâmetro do prego. LPP (Linhas Por Polegadas Portuguesas): multiplique o número correspondente por 2,3 para ter o comprimento em mm. No Brasil usamos mais o seguinte formato: JP x LPP Onde: JP é o diâmetro, em JDP (Jauge de Paris) LPP é o comprimento, em Linhas de Polegada Portuguesa. 1 JDP = ver tabela abaixo 1 Linha de Polegada Portuguesa: 2,30 mm Conversao de Medi

25 Alan Watts Quotes to Teach You the Transformative Power of Insighs Pin A prolific author and speaker, Alan Wilson Watts is credited with the interpretation and introduction of Eastern philosophy to the Western audience. As his mother’s students were children of missionaries to Asia, Watts began to be fascinated by Asian art, literature, and philosophy; so in time, he learned Chinese and started to explore the fundamental beliefs and practices of religions and philosophies of India and East Asia. After a rigorous research in Zen Buddhism, Watts published one of the first books on the topic –  The Way of Zen  – introducing the burgeoning youth culture to it. Due to all the wisdom it embodies, Watts even suggested that Buddhism could be presented and taught as a form of psychotherapy, and not only as a religion. Alan Watts is the author of more than 25 books on various topics such as philosophy, Eastern and Western religion, natural history, semantics, cybernetics and the

Could Asia really go to war over these?

Could Asia really go to war over these? The bickering over islands is a serious threat to the region’s peace and prosperity Sep 22nd 2012 | from the print edition THE countries of Asia do not exactly see the world in a grain of sand, but they have identified grave threats to the national interest in the tiny outcrops and shoals scattered off their coasts. The summer has seen a succession of maritime disputes involving China, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan and the Philippines. This week there were more anti-Japanese riots in cities across China because of a dispute over a group of uninhabited islands known to the Japanese as the Senkakus and to the Chinese as the Diaoyus. Toyota and Honda closed down their factories. Amid heated rhetoric on both sides, one Chinese newspaper has helpfully suggested skipping the pointless diplomacy and moving straight to the main course by serving up Japan with an atom bomb. That, thank goodness, is grotesque hyperbole: th

What is the best piece of advice you ever received to earn more money? Hector Quintanilla , Founder at DigitalAgeEducation.com Updated Jul 25, 2018 I just gave this lesson to my 10-year-old son. “Dad, to make money I will be walking our neighbors’ dogs. How much should I charge?” “How much do you want to make?”  I asked. “I think I could charge $3 dollars per hour.” “Is that all you want to make? Only $3 dollars per hour?” “No!”  he interrupted,  “I would love to make $20 dollars, but how could I do that? Do you think people will pay me $20?” I started to work on his mindset: “What are you selling, Son?” He stopped staring at me thinking,  “I’m not selling anything, Dad. What do you mean?” “Okay,”  I said,  “pretend I’m your customer. Sell to me.” He ran quickly to the computer and printed out a brochure he created that said: I WALK YOUR DOG $3 PER HOUR. CALL ME. “Here, Dad,”  giving me the brochure, “ will you hire

By

The Most Important Life Lesson From Andy Dufresne and The Shawshank Redemption Gen Cruz Stephen King is one of the most prolific novelists of our time. One among his finest works is a novella titled Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption. The movie based on this story titled The Shawshank Redemption ended up as King’s most critically acclaimed film adaptation. It is hailed as the greatest film to never win an Oscar best picture award, and regarded as one of the greatest films in history. The novella is about a dispassionate big-shot banker serving life imprisonment in Shawshank Penitentiary, and his seemingly miraculous escape. The Story Andy Dufresne was judged guilty for the murder of his wife and her lover, a crime that at first seemed to the reader a cut and dry case. However, Andy was explicitly revealed to be innocent later on. Despite of this, Andy retained his stoic demeanor. He was angry for his predicament sure, but his feelings dictated neither his actions nor his attitu
