Episode 85

Change, Habits, and Blindspots

THE THREE-HEADED MAN begins by talking about the ability to change oneself or others. From there, they discuss rigid habits and the option to distinguish and accept what cannot be changed.

When we get riled up and our buttons are pushed, we jump on a train of inner-considerations and bad moods. Continuing on they stumble into a discussion of G.I. Gurdjieff's notions about being awake and asleep.

Fred M Schill

I like to do. I like to make things. And, I like telling stories. I tell stories to myself and to others.

First, a short biography, which is, of course, is a story. I was born in Cleveland, played sports, and attended university. Later, after a few years in the radio business, I returned to university to study education and literature.

With a teaching certificate in my file folder, I began working in high schools, first as a strike-breaking scab substitute teacher in Cleveland's far suburbs, and then in Chicago, mostly in private high schools.

Cleveland and Chicago. My two main towns, and I escaped them both. Presently, I live in a tiny, isolated, mountain village in Spain. I am reluctant to write the name of the town because I don't like tourists. When the tourists arrive, they look at me as if I am an animal in a zoo.
