Dolphin’s Dilemma / by Alexander Lyadov

Unlike an adult, a baby can’t eat just anything. For healthy growth, he needs his mother’s milk—pure, free from allergens, mold, or alcohol.

The world offers the infant an endless feast, yet he can’t grasp it, digest it, or even recognize it.

My therapist once said, "In therapy, you can’t give—only take." The same is true for life. A person must develop a “container” to hold and absorb something new.

Without it, the horn of plenty will serve only filth, poison, and garbage.

Comedian Ismo Leikola has a ​brilliant bit​:

“Dolphins are so intelligent. They have such big brains. They could actually have a civilization and a culture just like people. They have the brains for it, but they don’t have it. We can see that they don’t have it. But the reason is not the brain. The reason is that they don’t have hands. So they can’t really do anything. But they can think. So they must be really pissed off.”

Feeling stuck means your inner self has turned into a dolphin, and your adult self has become an infant. The world's vast resources have shrunk into a single dilemma: "Either milk or nothing."

It’s as if you’ve been put under a spell, unable to see the opportunities around you. But they are everywhere, always. To seize them, you must first break the enchantment.

That spell is nothing more than false beliefs. Like warped mirrors, they distort both the outer and inner world. That’s why opportunities exist in abundance—but only in potential.

Our mission is simple: wake that sleeping potential and bring it to life.

Yours sincerely,

-Alexander
