Welcome to Introduction to Bliss Beyond Bullshit blog series. You may consider these few posts to come something like a warm-up: not the main action per se, but essential for a good performance later on. The aim of this first blog series is to introduce myself, my objectives for this blog and a bit of the structure and methodology that I will be following.

This series comprises the following posts (I recommend that you read them in order):

  1. An Unexpected Dialogue
  2. The Optimist Manifesto
  3. Who is Alex B. Fields?
  4. Why am I writing this?
  5. The BBB Hypothesis
  6. Table of Contents
  7. A Blogger’s Pledge

But first… An important Disclaimer

For the benefit of the few:

And care less about the what than the who:

If you abhor any foul language,
specially synonyms of the word poo:
