Default Simplest reason for stagnation in Steve's posts' inspiration

There is a simple explanation to the stagnation in Steve's inspiration: Over the past 2 years he has laid out knowedge he has synthesized over his entire adult life, keeping up a dizzying pace and producing many truly inspired articles in the process. Now that he has shared his life knowledge with us it has naturally become increasingly difficult for him to come up with new ideas at the same pace. Having said that, I still find fresh ideas or formulations of existing ideas now and then.

We may have to accept that the value of his ideas from now on for those of use who've feasted on his best articles is in applying them rather than being ever-hungry for more: I certainly can be faulted for knowing his theory far better than being proficient at applying it.

For Steve this may be the time to turn away from blogging to lecturing etc. Or if he brings about his "lightworker housing" idea of supporting others wishing to make a difference then that contribution might well be his next one in line. But it may well be that Steve might need to expand the complexity of his system, for example considering how dumb people might be led to change their life; or those who are so deeply disturbed that external assistance is needed: this is something which I help people with through my work in classical homeopathy, which is essentially a system of medicine that treats 'stuckness' at the spiritual level as it treats both physical and psychological ailments. EFT is another approach mentioned in the forums, which can be used to deal with blocks to manifestation. Thus studying different forms of psychological or spiritual healing, doing one-on-one coaching, etc. might be the next step; he might reach less people that way, but gain in depth of understanding of the sort only possible in intimate healing work.

Most importantly, though, where Steve might be limited is in the fact that his intentions are culturally conditioned, and it might be hard to step outside of one's culture and consider entirely other avenues of life. Of course he did step outside of his particular religious upbringing, but he still presents with the classically American characteristics of desire for financial and career success, strong individualism, etc. The answer to this is that we are each free to apply his ideas to our own set of values. Thus we can choose to manifest a tight-knit community practicing "collective" not "personal" development, rather than an arguably typical hectic family life in a typical suburban home in a city overflowing with the excesses of affluence. The power of his ideas is that they can universally be adapted to different belief systems (say by substituting "a million dollars" with "a rich community life" or "following Jesus faithfully" or "bringing about world peace" or whatever), and for that we can be grateful that Steve has given us his Magnum Opus of tools for living more consciously in whatever manner we choose to.
