. Personality & Emergence

Welcome to the Emergence Site, home to the world's first fully fractal personality theory. Why fractal? Because only a fractal personality theory can truly describe human nature while at the same time, blaming no one for our suffering. Including the suffering inherent in everything from Asperger's and ADD to addictions and relationship problems.

What do we do here? For one thing, we answer questions no one asks. Things like what actually makes us vulnerable to injury? And why can't we heal just from knowing what happened? A hint. Injury happens from being startled, not from reasons. Thus seeking the psychological reasons for our injuries only makes us more confused. And psychologically numb.

So what does heal us? And how does being startled cause our injuries? You'll find these answers inside.

What else will you find? A lot of new stuff on how the mind body connection works. Including how a heretofore unknown aspect of the mind body connection is what makes us vulnerable to overeating. As well as to drug addiction and alcoholism. What difference does knowing this make? A big difference, since knowing can help you to find your way toward recovery from just about any addiction.

You'll find this information inside as well.

Are you looking for hard science? Know you'll find that here as well. Albeit, not voiced as pop psychology nor as old school statistical nonsense. Rather, we talk fractally here. In fact, we trust nothing that cannot be voiced as a psychophysical fractal. You see fractility, not psychology or statistical research, is the only Real Test for Truth. Personality to personal preferences. Human consciousness to human aloneness.

What is our science like? We have three perspectives from which we Emergence Practitioners seek answers. The Emergence Formulas for Consciousness (an exciting new way to map in three dimensions what occurs in the human mind). Emergence Personality Theory (the world's first fully fractal personality theory). And Emergence Therapy, the first talk therapy which can purposely alter the very nature of who you are. Permanently. And without blame.

From where have these three perspectives come? From ingredients which have been around for thousands of years. Thus, while it's true nothing is new under the sun, we see ourselves as being similar to world class chefs, in that we use already known ingredients to invent new recipes for loving each other.

Speaking of love, along the way, we've also unearthed some new ideas as to what makes children lose their love of learning. As well as some thoughts on how to reawaken this love of learning in ourselves, at any time, at any age. Here, we ask questions like what makes memorizing painful? Can children who hate math learn to love it? And how do you know your child has been matched to the right teacher?

Of course, we also know, all too well, that a theory is only as true as it's usefulness. Thus we've also created a whole series of personality tests, and these tests are several magnitudes more predictive and accurate than those of one of my heroes; Carl Jung, We call these tests, the Emergence Social Priority Charts, and not only will they help you to know yourself better, it's just possible, they may heal things in you just by taking them.

Here, our hope is that these tests may someday be used, not only to better match people to their careers, but also to better match children to their teachers. And lonely hearts to other lonely hearts.

In addition, you'll also a few introductory stories from our soon to be released foray into the business world; the Bernie Book. Here we focus on how being conscious affects peoples' ability to manage money. Especially in and around their awareness of after age seven time. Not sure what after-seven time is? You'll find this idea inside as well. Impulse buyers beware.

What you won't find here, of course, is blame. Why not? Because nothing ruins peoples' chances to heal and grow more than blame itself. Thus while we do pose a whole lot of provocative questions, we do not blame people for their wrongs. And yes. We do see people as responsible for these wrongs. We just don't see how blaming them makes the world any better.

Is this your first visit? Then you might find it helpful to read the "What is Emergence?" articles. Especially the Emergence Glossary. We do tend to look at things a bit differently here. Or perhaps, you'd prefer to just jump in and poke around. Please feel free to do either, and to go wherever your heart leads you.

Know also that most people, on their first visit, feel very overwhelmed. Too many topics. Too many long articles. And way too much to learn in anything like a brief visit.

The thing is, if you treat our site like a big thick encyclopedia of secrets and mysteries (and if you honor yourself and go only at your heart's own pace), then in time, we're sure you'll see beauty in some things you thought had no beauty in them whatsoever. Including in the people you dislike the most.

Finally, for whom have we written all this? Mainly, for the child in all of us. The part of us that so wants answers but doesn't want to hurt anyone in the process. Thus whether you be therapist, teacher, aspiring healer, or wounded soul, if you are looking for compassion, we have a lot to show you.

Our overall hope here, of course, is that what we've posted on this site may in some way inspire you to seek your own way to make the world a better place. Especially for children. As well as to help you to rediscover the awe and wonder we all once felt each and every morning. As we sought to find the most wonderful treasure of all; the the beauty hidden within each and every being in our world.

May these beautiful feelings emerge in you too.
