Problem is he’s Jim Carrey. The information is solid but the source has no credibility in this area.
Here’s what I’m talking about: Click here to see article

Jim fights with his depression but he (and I) thinks taking meds as a permanent response to your mental issues is planning for failure. They are not fixing anything. They are not helping anything. They are not allowing you to see the real problem. They are allowing you to cope, to stay the same, to exist, not grow. And that is death.

There is no actual holding still in the natural world. There is only growth and death. If you’re holding still, for example, taking drugs to cope, you definitely are not growing. So you’re dying.

Bipolar, depression, high levels of stress…they’re a gift. A horrendous gift wrapped in pain and suffering and delivered with despair, but a gift nevertheless. Here’s why: they are nothing more than a signal from your body, mind, and heart that something in your life is out of whack. By continuing on the path you have set for yourself, you are not only failing at your life but hurting yourself, too. You are missing opportunities. You are missing out on larger joys. You are missing the point.

Bipolar and the like are nothing more than a slap in the face to wake up! Even if you add in the genetic component, the facts stay the same. The genetic switch is thrown on by trauma of some sort. This is not your fault necessarily. If you are a child of abusive parents and you take one hit to the head too many or one verbal attack too many causing your bipolar to activate, this is not your fault. But as you grow older, if you do not account for the bipolar properly, it directly becomes your fault. Even if set in motion by outside forces, your bipolar is telling you to change. The outside forces, horrible as they might have been, simply changed your operating parameters. You have a new set of rules to take into consideration that others don’t and that’s that. If you change correctly, it will go dormant.

Let’s go back to the example of the beaten child. The mere presence of the bipolar is still just a signal that you must change. Doesn’t matter what kicked it off. The change you must make is how you deal with that earlier abuse, because it most definitely is now running you life and causing you to make nothing but poor choices, endlessly, in all areas. If you could see how to overcome that past trauma and rid it from your being, you’d find your bipolar would seemingly evaporate. The thing that allowed it to live no longer exists.

This whole discussion brings me back to why meds don’t work as a long-term solution. They allow you to COPE with the situation AS IT IS! This is fine for immediate survival, like Jim Carrey says. But for the long haul, you need to OVERCOME the thing that is hurting you. To take a pill that allows you to keep your life just as it is only allows you to ignore your much smarter subconscious that is telling you some damn thing is majorly screwed up in your world. Meds dull, either directly or metaphorically. They cause you to accept your life as is, and fight to keep it static, unchanging, when in fact, you should be fighting for all you’re worth in exactly the opposite direction! You should be changing something. Your life depends on it.

The other stuff Jim says about everything that happens, even the gory stuff, being necessary and perfect is also true. But that is such a deep topic that it rockets right past most people’s comprehensive abilities. It’s too far out for consideration so I’ll limit what I say about this.
Take my bipolar for example. I’ve known for a while of what Jim speaks. My bipolar definitely was a gift. Is that how I saw it when I was sick? You tell me how blessed I felt over the 8 years this list covered:

• 30 jobs
• 2 divorces in which my heart was ripped from my chest and stomped on repeatedly
• 1 two-week coma
• 1 actual death (they kept restarting my heart and it apparently took at one point)
• The endless symptoms I fought daily, which were crushing the life out of me
• the loss of my physical health as my body failed
• multiple arrests making me a felon
• jail stays
• cops beating the crap out of me
• deeply hurting my entire family and all around me who loved me most
• shameful acts the likes of which I’ll never admit to, causing me guilt on an indescribable level
• tens of thousands of dollars wasted
• one bankruptcy for $72,000
• one consolidation for $60,000
• lost all I owned to include a house, two cars, and my gym that took ten years to build
• only see my beautiful little boy every other weekend
• huge legal issues
• the psychic carnage I felt from physically hurting all the people I did while at my sickest ( I was massively violent)
• and much, much more pain and suffering

Does any of that sound like a gift? Well, it was. It brought me to where I am today, which is the best place I’ve ever been in my life. If bipolar hadn’t destroyed me, I’d still be the old me, and he wasn’t working out so well.

And that’s the thing. The Universe, or whatever you’d like to call it, will beat you about the head and shoulders until you WAKE THE HELL UP to your faulty planning. Or it will kill you. I’d rather wake up and face the change.

Of course, you need the right plan to do all that and that is where I come in. Please click here for my Christmas gift to you!

So, don’t pick on Jim anyone. He’s got it right. He’s just a comedian is all. He’s teaching with one arm tied behind his back.

Be well,

Ken

That’s about all you’ve been hearing outta my blog lately, I know. I am deep in redesigning my website. It will have a completely new purpose and look once it’s completed. There’s a lot of background work to accomplish what I want it to do and I have to do most of it myself so, please bear with me as I complete it all.

I am preparing a few other extremely large projects, one of which will be my online membership site. The framework for that is being discussed right now.

Those of you who’ve been around with me awhile won’t be affected by this next bit, but my autoresponder messages will be getting a revamp too. They will be of more help to new folks as they arrive.

I did a radio show recently:

Go here to listen to my 45-minute interview on WKNY Kingston, NY.

It went well considering I only had two hours of low quality sleep!

I’ll be on that show again in February to cover the details of how I stay healthy. The lady interviewing me was more interested in the Marine parts of my life and book so we never covered what I really wanted to.

I’ll be giving a workshop on stage in Poughkeepsie on Jan 29th with the Mid-Hudson Valley Mental Health Conference for those of you who are local. I’d love to meet some of you in person. I’ll provide more details as I learn them.

Everyone will have access to my new 44 page workbook as well. Matter of fact, you can access it right now by going here.

My whole system is right there with action steps to follow. There are also checklists, where needed, to keep track of all the info you’re consuming - make sure you don’t miss any.

This last bit is a video I was led to. I found it very inspiring and has matched what I have learned and experienced as I’ve developed this project of mine. It’s about living the life you want and the attitude it takes to get it done. If you’re offended by curse words, then skip this. But I found the guy to be spot on:

Take care everyone and thank you for your continued support!

Brief post today but very powerful and an update to Ken’s happenings.

First, I will be interviewed Saturday the 22nd by Jody McTague at WKNY 1490 AM, right here in Kingston, NY, at 9AM. I’ll make it as interesting and informative as I possibly can!

Second, I have written before about Garret Loporto and what a Godsend he was to find for me. There are aspects of bipolar that you’ll never hear addressed in any doctor’s office. Bipolar is a gift that has no clear, comfortable place at society’s table. It is a battle to see its positive side and see how best to utilize it. I would bet many of you out there see NO positive side to this illness.

Well, let me welcome you to my world. In my world, bipolar is just a signal that great things lie just beneath the surface. It’s yet one more major reason why a pill will never treat this disease properly or at all. It is a complete missing of the point.

I’ll let Garret tell you more: Please click here to listen to a very interesting man.

This may not apply to everyone with these afflictions and yet, once you hear this excerpt, I’ll bet many of you will identify to some degree. I’d be doing you nothing but a favor to tell you to invest in a copy of Garret’s book, immediately after hearing him speak. His book, “The DaVinci Method” can be found right here on my site. Just scroll down a hair and you’ll see the cover:

Please click here to gain access to Garret’s book.

I hope you can hear me speak and call in with questions. If not, I will have the whole show on my site after the fact.

Take care everyone!

Hello everyone!

I’ve been in the middle of a huge workload. Kept me from blogging regularly. Have a look at this short video and please take the step I need help with:

This is an alternate link for the video, NOT the link I need you to help me with.

Click HERE to download my new workbook

***** OK. I just updated my version of Adobe and it seems to have changed how the download takes place. I USED TO get a download choice window. NOW I see the page sits idle, doing nothing you can notice, then my PDF appears automatically, in its entirety. So be patient as this blank screen stares back at you and like magic - POP! - my PDF will appear. *****

Thank you very much everyone!

Hello everyone,

I get an awful lot of frustrated, distraught family members looking for help for a loved one who’s out of control with bipolar symptoms but won’t seek help themselves. There are a few reasons why this may be.

Some people have tried to get or stay well using medications but have had no luck or do not like the side effects the medications produce. Either way, they believe this is their only avenue to wellness and because it’s been proven by them to not work, they do nothing at all. The illness then runs away with their life and the lives of all who care for them.

Some folks are just coming into the illness and it’s at such a low level, it appears to just be “stress” or “eccentricity” or they’re simply known for their “wild” attributes. Nothing to be concerned about. The sick person may think this directly about themselves (I did for years) and people in their social circles may feel the same. It’s just “how that guy is.”

Many feel they’re not sick at all, and in some cases, maybe they’re not. And then again, maybe they are. Others have been diagnosed with a condition but refuse to accept it.

All of this is moot in regard to the end product. Whatever the reason, something is off enough about them that it causes distress to all around them. Major distress. If you’ve been labeled as just this sort of person then I need for you to hear the following, spoken by one who’s been right where you are now:

I did my best to not offend anyone with what I had to say about this. If you’re a person who matches the descriptions in this post, then you owe it to those who care for you the most to at least look further into what I offer, and see if you can improve their lives by becoming a better you. You can do this and you will like where it takes you. I promise.

Be well,

Hi everyone,

Quickie today. I had a fantastic time at a pumkin-themed bonanza of a day at a nearby farm. Compressed air pumpkin cannon, hay ride, pick a pumpkin patch, hay bale tunnel o’ doom, cornfield maze, all for three bucks and my 6 year old son was ecstatic!

I dug the cannon. Never saw one of those before.

I also met a Navy Corpsman on the hayride. These are medics embedded within Marine units. They are our docs and they are respected as fellow brother Marines. They keep us alive on the battlefield and I was proud to have met this man. Santos was in Bahrain the same time I was. That’s a small batch of people to be running into one another like that. I think he’s the first in 17 years.

Here’s my two cents for today. Enjoy!

Hello my friends,

Pardon the backwoods drollery. I just do what management tells me.

I have my first video testimonial backing the efficacy of Truehope and EMP+, in particular. I’ve known Curran for quite a few months now. We lift together at the MAC gym in Kingston, NY. Curran is a moose of a guy and dedicated to achieving the best physique possible in the smartest way he can.

The longer we knew one another, the broader the topics of discussion became. I have since learned that there is an immense depth to this man’s thinking that he doesn’t get the chance to share as often as he’d prefer.

I know this problem well and am glad to have found a fellow traveller. There is so much I have to say about self growth and improvement and the bettering of the world for all of us, but it has to be laid out in order and until you’ve worked closely with me and moved through my system, it would be pointless to share it all right up front. My information and experiences would not mean to you what they should without the necessary background info.

In time, my membership site will be completed and folks like Curran here, and many others, are going to do interviews with me and we’ll pick each other’s brains for the benefit of my members.

But for today, have a listen to my buddy Curran:

Thanks as always for spending your time with me, and stick around as I’m going to be adding more and more to this media experience for you.

I should be spanked. I’ve become quite lax in my posting efforts. I’ve been battling a new software, which is now mostly complete. Please do me the favor of giving it a test drive. You’ll be placed in my new autoresponder and receive updates specifically related to this quiz but nothing’s been built just yet. You can always unsubscribe any time you wish. And it does not affect these posts you already receive.

Just click on the following link and take the short quiz I designed: New Bipolar Quiz and feel free to give me any feedback about the quiz. Good or bad, it all helps me make sure I’m helping you the best way possible.

I had an interview lined up with a local cable show last night, but it got postponed due to technical problems. The town most affected by the show had no reception. Sort of makes airing the show pointless. But it will be back on Oct 28th, channel 23 at 8:30 PM here in Ulster County New York. I’ll give you the link to the station so you can check prior to airtime, just in case: Kingston, NY Cable

Now here’s some very useful information regarding bipolar. It applies to anyone really, but a long time ago I wrote how food seemed to have a huge impact on my mood. I never knew why and no pro could ever tell me. This following article spells it out the best I’ve ever seen and makes total sense to me. Please read this as it may very well affect your life, bipolar or not: Elizabeth Bohorquez finally offers advice I’ve needed for years

I have more media events planned and big things are looming on my horizon. I’ll update as they evolve.

Take care everyone,

Ken “The Bipolar Eradicator” Jensen

Hello everyone!

I was reflecting on my time in the Marines and how much of it, although incredibly adventurous and out of control, really just bored me to tears. If you’ve read my book, this admission may surprise you. You might wonder how one such as myself could have done all he did and still been bored.

It’s because I was staying busy but missing the point. I did this for almost 15 years AFTER the Marines as well. I worked very hard, lifted weights like mad, hiked and camped in all seasons, and partied my brains out through all of it. While a lot of that was productive and positive, it was mostly driven by my need to “find myself” and feel successful at something. But none of it really hit the mark as I steadily devolved into total bipolar.

That’s what this ignorance of one’s true purpose can lead to… bipolar. Your inner mind is in a raging battle with your outer self, trying to get it to listen. All the answers you want or need are already inside you. You’re just not listening or if you are, you’re not acting appropriately to get these goals fulfilled.

The frustration this causes can manifest as bipolar. Have a listen to what I mean:

Watch via this link if you’re not on my main blog

Much of this personality type and resulting syndrome is discussed in Garrett Loporto’s book “The Davinci Method.”

And portions of this are covered by one of my mentors Mike Litman, just without the bipolar material.

Ignore what your heart and inner mind are telling you and pay the price. For some of us, that price is bipolar. But you can fix that! Just learn to listen to the smart part of you better!

One of the best ways to do that is with www.Centerpointe.com Go check ‘em out and discover how to get what you really want from this life.

Take care guys!

Hi everyone!

You need a way to get the mass of darkness inside your head, outside your head. These following, final two steps of my system cover that need. Come yachting with me to learn what they are:

Just…get…it…out!

Now for some helpful links that I know will speak strongly to some of you out there:

Mike Litman was introduced to me by Victory Darwin over at www.BigLife.ws It turns out, my main mentor was on the audio testimonials at the end of the CD I was listening to. Mike speaks a powerful truth that, if you’re ready to hear it will help you rock out your experience of this life. The man just speaks sense. The link above goes to his blog. I highly suggest you consider becoming a subscriber.

That’s it for now guys. I am very busy with two local colleges, my local library, and a few local businessmen in event planning. The types of people I am working with and meeting in a day are getting very interesting and personally rewarding for me. After thirty jobs and at the age of forty, following 6 solid years of chaos and pain from bipolar, I am excelling at life!

I never saw any of this coming when I originally began fighting for my sanity, my way. This very outcome is what I can help bring to you. It wasn’t easy for me and probably won’t be for you but if your current plan is working not at all, well…I’m just sayin’.

Be well everybody!

Ken
