What Are S.P.A.R.K.s?
S.P.A.R.K.s are clear and inspiring invitations to transform your thinking.
SPARK-ling Clarity
S.P.A.R.K.s are maps for new ways of thinking about things that you may never have considered thinking differently about before.
Each new Distinction gives you a chance to Experiment with changing your mind.
Changing your mind opens Doorways to creative new freedom of movement in your daily life.
Riding the Roller Coaster
The process of changing your mind may sometimes feel like riding a roller coaster while old ideas in your mind reorder themselves around your new Distinctions.
Don't worry. The ride soon comes to an end.
Then you step out into a new world more able to create what you want to create and be the kind of person you want to be.
Leaving Kansas
Kansas is flat. I know. I was born there.
S.P.A.R.K.s do not come from Kansas.
S.P.A.R.K.s come from the Muse, from the Bright Principles of Clarity, Possibility, and Love.
Reading S.P.A.R.K.s can suggest to you that something other than Kansas exists...
however, it is important to acknowledge that you will only get out of Kansas by actually doing the Experiments, not just thinking about doing them.
Understanding Your Understanding
Distinctions dive deeper than your mind.
The inner Ah-hah! experience of getting a new Distinction is the moment the distinction lands in your energetic body and changes the shape of who you are.
Detecting things you never perceived before can be ecstatic!
You may also feel scared about seeing what you did not see before, or frustrated about how long you held onto a defended position, or sad to grieve the loss of your previous worldview.
But the universe quickly conforms to your new shape, and suddenly your circumstances change.
Voila! Your life has new Possibilities!
This really works.
Making A New Future With S.P.A.R.K.s...
Where are those individuals with courage enough to retool their thinking minds, upgrade their Thoughtware, and act outside of traditional behavior patterns to solve problems in new ways?
Believe it or not, one of them is reading these words right now. By Experimenting with S.P.A.R.K.s you learn wildly new forms of being with yourself and working with people in groups and Teams. If you have read this far, you can be certain that you already embody regenerative culture Spaceholding qualities, whether you know that about yourself or not.
These words would not interest you in the least unless you were willing to release the steel-hard grip of your mind on your reality. To read this far it must already excite you to learn that there exist Thoughtmaps for opening up access to new territories. By exploring those territories, you discover treasures which you can bring back and share with your people. As you seek new ways for your projects to be successful, you embody the Archiarchal definition of a leader: Leaders are the people who go first. Circular Teams are Navigated by Spaceholders who Cavitate new space in which to work... READ MORE

You can Navigate a weekly S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team !
No one can do S.P.A.R.K. Experiments for you.
More interestingly, no one can stop you from doing S.P.A.R.K. Experiments!
Your S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team
The Universe can only offer you Resources and Coincidences according to the shape of your Being.
Doing the S.P.A.R.K. Experiments (included with every S.P.A.R.K.) evolves the shape of your Being.
This changes the way the Universe interacts with you.
That your Being can evolve is why we offer you S.P.A.R.K.s.
A Possibilitator needs an updated Being shape to create the new results needed in the world now.
A powerful way to do S.P.A.R.K. Experiments is to Spacehold a weekly S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team!
WHAT IS A S.P.A.R.K. EXPERIMENT TEAM
A S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team is a free-to-participate gameworld that meets for 1.5 or 2 hours each week at the same day and time (for example, on Thursday night at 7:30pm) with up to 12 people, online or in your own living room.
S.P.A.R.K.s are Transformational, and you are the Spaceholder. By creating a S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team, you Build Matrix for upgrading your Transformational Space Navigation skills.
Through regular participation, many valuable Thoughtware Upgrades will occur in a S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team, and huge healings and breakthroughs are common.
Here is an article written by Clinton Callahan called Where Are The New Leaders? which may give you some further inspiration about holding space for a S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Group.
HOW TO RUN YOUR OWN WEEKLY S.P.A.R.K. EXPERIMENT TEAM
Here is a mini-codex for a S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team.
Common protocols and traditions include:
- Showing up in the physical or online space at least 3 minutes before the space is scheduled to begin. If someone is late they are asked to try again next week.
- Meeting once per week is the optimum meeting frequency. Twice a week does not give time for changes to integrate or for Possibilitators to practice the new Distinctions or Skills. Waiting to meet once every two weeks is too long, and the energy of sustained Practice is lost.
- 1.5 hours is the recommended length of time for a weekly S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team.
- A maximum of up to 15 minutes can be used at the start of a Team Meeting for Reports of results of Experiments tried during the interim days, sharing what was Noticed, what changed, what New Results were created, what modifications of the Experiments are recommended.
- The Weekly S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team is a Toroid (donut-shaped org chart - without a 'leader' or Hierarchy) and uses Torus Meeting Technology.
- Then either the Spaceholder or a volunteer from the Circle reads the DISTINCTION and the NOTES sections of the S.P.A.R.K. using Memetic Speaking. It is important that a S.P.A.R.K. is not read from the mind for other minds, but that instead, each word in landed in the Space and in the participants' 5 Bodies. It is important that people are impacted by the words.
- Any resistance, confusion, Reactivity or Ah! Hah! moments are shared in the group for consideration.
- It is important to hold the S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team Space such that it is NOT a Process Space. There are many other Spaces in the Possibility Management gameworld that are specifically dedicated to being Process Spaces (such as EHP Dojo, or Possibility Coaching). This is a Research and Discovery Space, and a space for Experimenting.
- There should be a designated Scribe and a designated Time Keeper in the Space to help with Space Navigation and Space Holding.
- When an actual Experiment is described, it can either be practiced in the whole group, in breakout groups of 2 or 3 people, or in daily life during the week. Using Team intelligence to provide hints about what works and what the others could try to make their Experiment even more effective can be very helpful.
- Participants should be encouraged over and over to register each Matrix Code from the various S.P.A.R.K. Experiments they actually do in their free account at https://login.startover.xyz so as to help us build to 1,000,000 new Matrix Points as a way of upgrading the Standard Human Intelligence Thoughtware in the human morphogenetic field.
- Many people have told us that the trainings are amazing, but where their lives really change is in their weekls S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team. Some have been going on for decades.
WHERE TO ANNOUNCE YOUR S.P.A.R.K. EXPERIMENT TEAM
Please announce to everyone that you have a S.P.A.R.K. Experiment Team at the Possibility Management Events Telegram Group.

Thanks for Experimenting!
Experimenting builds matrix for holding more consciousness.
Every Distinction you get changes the shape of your Being.
By changing your own shape you change the shape of the morphogenetic field of the human race.
You have power.
This may be the most efficient and effective way to change the status quo!
And in addition, you can generate more yellow stuff!
Have Fun!
NOTE: This website is a Bubble in the Bubble Map of the free-to-play massively-multiplayer online-and-offline thoughtware-upgrade matrix-building personal-transformation real-life adventure-game called StartOver.xyz. It is a doorway to experiments that upgrade your thoughtware so you can relocate your point of origin and create more possibility. Your knowledge is what you think about. Your thoughtware is what you use to think with. When you change your thoughtware, you go through a liquid state as your mind reorganizes itself. Liquid states can bring up transformational feelings and emotions. By upgrading your thoughtware you build matrix to hold more consciousness and leave behind a low drama life of reactivity. No one can upgrade your thoughtware for you. More interestingly, no one can stop you from upgrading your thoughtware. Our theory is that when we collectively build 1,000,000 new Matrix Points we will change the morphogenetic field of the human race for the better. Please choose responsibly to read this website. Reading this whole website is worth 1 Matrix Point. Doing any of the experiments earns you additional Matrix Points. Please use Matrix Code SPARK000.00 to log your Matrix Point for reading this website on StartOver.xyz. Thank you for playing full out!
