			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, you&#8217;ve read previous post, right? This site is non-commercial. I may have a few ads or affiliate link, but let&#8217;s get serious &#8212; you don&#8217;t make money by throwing a few links on your site. Making money online is a hard work and I am doing it in other places.</p>
<p>Non-commercial nature of this site means that I don&#8217;t have to entertain you. If you want substance, welcome, if you need a clown &#8211; check when a circus comes to your town.</p>
<p>Let me explain it with an example. Among other reviews on my book I&#8217;ve got one negative saying &#8220;the style is very boring&#8221;. That&#8217;s exactly what I mean by &#8220;looking for clowns&#8221;. Also the review says, &#8220;There is a similar book on mental cleaning by Jamie Whyte called &#8220;Crimes Against Logic&#8221; which is a far better treatment of logic problems found in society written by some one that knows the subject quite well.&#8221; If you go to the reviews of that book, you&#8217;ll see: &#8220;As an example, Whyte cynically attempts to debunk the Christian mystery of the blessed trinity by using math. Basically: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit equal 1+1+1. Because 3 is more than 1 then the trinity can&#8217;t exist as one God&#8230;then follows the predictable conclusion that the blessed trinity is illogical and Christian belief is fanciful.&#8221;</p>
<p>What can say&#8230; Phew&#8230; If that&#8217;s my nearest competition, I can sleep well. By the way, I have an entertaining mind cleansing book too. It&#8217;s called &#8220;Management for Cannibals: How to become CEO (Chief Eating Officer).&#8221;</p>
<p>Ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras once said that only such a student deserves being taught, who can by one side of a square figure out the whole shape. I&#8217;d say more. If you tell a student to go away and he goes away, it means that he did not want the knowledge in the first place.  I don&#8217;t know why he was here in the first place, but it was not your knowledge. If a student does not really want your knowledge, he is not a student. He may be a follower, a prospect, a spectator&#8230; He may be here for entertainment, fun, illusion&#8230; No offense, people who want illusions are very valuable for Internet marketers. BUT THEY ARE NOT STUDENTS. When a true student hears &#8220;Go away!&#8221;, he does not, because a burning desire for the knowledge is what&#8217;s driving him. And then, at some time, he also starts to create new knowledge side by side with you. That&#8217;s what makes it worthwhile to have students.</p>
<p>Go away!</p>
