George Leonard

Mais hábil você se torna em se convencer a não agir, a em provar para si mesmo que toda a ação que você poderia tomar é pequena demais, sem sentido demais e não vale a pena.

E George Leonard, que trouxe o jujitsu do Japão para os Estados Unidos, uma das coisas que ele dizia é: com certeza você não pode fazer tudo, mas você pode fazer uma coisa, e outra, e outra.

E é assim que você faz um progresso enorme na vida, fazendo uma coisa, e outra, e outra.

O importante é você aparecer, tentar e agir semana após semana, mês após mês, ano após ano.

Now, all right, there are people working with NASA who have come forward, but we rarely hear about their accounts, as you might imagine.

George Leonard wrote a book called Somebody Else Is On The Moon.

What makes Leonard's book special is that he had access to NASA photographs that were untouched, photos that are supposed to be public domain, considering that, well, I mean, they're funded by our tax-paying dollars.

Many of these photos, strangely enough, match our sketches drawn by Ingo Swann, our, our remote viewer extraordinaire.

You need to bounce back from those, um, setbacks as fast as you can.

Another, uh, PNTV we'll be doing soon is on George Leonard's great book, The Way of Aikido.

The great aikido, uh, master and founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba, um, his... one of his students told him, "Morihei, you never lose your center," which is a big part of, uh, of aikido, right? Staying centered and grounded.

He said, "You never lose your center." And, uh, the master, O Sensei, laughed and said, "I lose my center all the time, but I regain it so quickly that you don't notice." Marcus Aurelius said, "When the force of circumstance upsets your equanimity, see how fast you can return to a balanced state." So when life knocks you down, you lose a chess game, you lose whatever the equivalent is in your life, see how fast you can bounce back, starting with the, uh, recollection, remembering the fact that it's supposed to be challenging.

Provisions and clothing were furnished by government for the first year with a few implements to commence a settlement.

Lord Dorchester appointed the Reverend Mr. Sayer, George Leonard, William Ting, and James Peters, Esq., as agents to apply for lands and locate them.

Major Stodham was soon after added to the number by Governor Parr.

This officer at that time commanded the garrison of Fort Howe at the entrance of St. John River.

They had however the satisfaction of receiving the thanks of the Governor and Council of Nova Scotia for their upright conduct in transacting that business.

In the year 1785 the present limits of New Brunswick were divided from Nova Scotia and a separate charter of a constitution was granted to the province under Governor Carleton with a council composed of the following gentlemen, Beverly Robinson, Gabriel G. Ludlow, George D. Ludlow, Abijah Willard, Jonathan Odell, James Putnam, Joshua Upham, Edward Winslow, William Hazen, Guilford Studham, and Daniel Bliss.

Beverly Robinson, Abijah Willard, and James Putnam died soon after, when Beverly Robinson, the son of the former, with George Leonard and John Saunders, were appointed to succeed them.

The above members of the council transacted the business of the province for a long while.
