Freedom comes from process
We’re all tied to this notion of money. We want it for what it gives us, what we hope it will give us, what we hope those things will allow us to have…
But, 99.9 % of our time, money isn’t what we’re focussed on.
We focus on relationships, the ups and the downs.
We focus on things and people we desire.
We focus on comparing ourselves.
And then we come back to the reality of life.
We spend, most of our life, not spending the money we have, but earning it, and then when we have it, we spend our time figuring out how to keep it or earn some more.
The one thing I haven’t said is that, we spend 99.9 % of our time in our process. We either love our process, or hate our process, either way, that’s where we spend our time.
It’s the process that creates results, that creates value, either for a boss or for our clients.
People say they want money, I don’t believe this. It’s a lie. A misguided collective lie.
We don’t want money, we want energy, we want to be fulfilled by our process. And if we can get paid for what we do, it’s a bonus.
But what people really want, is the ability to enjoy what they do, and have the recognition they need (by aligning with something they know is the right thing for them.).
People get miserable, when they do for money, but hate the process.
Grind will damage more than enjoyable process…
The dangers of Ai and the piedpipper effect.
If you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time, you’ll know that I’ve had my fair-share of struggles, and aim to produce the most truthful output as I can despite my struggles.
Well, lately, I have had my own fair share of struggles, as usual. And so, to counter-balance those troubles, I’ve sought out solutions and listened to content online. Some of it good, a lot of it appealing, and some of it an absolute waste of time.
However, this being said, When everything is going wrong, and you’re fighting for your life, and the content you’re listening to spews the exact problem you’re going through… Then you need to be aware. I love that google has its algorithms perfectly attuned to my pain points, until I don’t. And I don’t, for multiple reasons. But the fundamental one is Ai.
Any teenage idiot can create a channel. There isn’t anything wrong with this. It’s all fun and games, and simply creating value for your personal tribe is wonderful. When its grounded in reality and comes from us. But the issue arises – in traditional life- when the viewer realizes that the creator knows f all about what he’s talking about. This, is the reason adults don’t take life advice from school boys.
But, when those clever little monkeys grab hold of technology like Ai, and start seeking loopholes to get more pocket-money, the problem shifts. In general stance, it’s not necessarily bad that people strive to go out and make money but only when its based in the right reasons. Profit for profits sake is corruption. No, the issue is when the pocket money turns into millions, clever turns into manipulative and service turns into harvest at scale.
The content produced becomes incredibly accurate, except that it’s not actually grounded in anything, or anyone life experience, and ultimately not based upon human possibility in reality. Thus going towards the dangers of a virtual reality where anything is possible. It sounds like everything you want to hear, but in truth it’s not based on anything except a melting-pot of ai mashing together collective conscience. It’s not actually saying anything at all. It’s not actually food you can bite. It doesn’t sustain you or your soul. It’s based upon a mirage created to solve a human problem, using human knowledge (which for the most part is flawed. Because the majority of people have no clue what they’re saying as they’re the product of the waves of their lives… {Wrong + Wrong + wrong + wrong… Doesn’t make a right…}).
The issue is that there are actual human’s ailing while You tube Ai Content creators are racking up followers and rewards This is the story of the pied-pipper ( if any of you went to school before the rainbow tribe took over and decided to remove words from books and the dictionary, you’ll know ).
The value in human creativity, is that it is an extension of what we as humans are capable of as humans. That is what makes us incredible. It’s the extension of what we are capable of, within the realms of our internal heaven. When people aim from the perspective of virtual reality, to get limitless returns on investment and create asymmetrical towers of value, we’re creating illusions in the sky. They’re based upon nothing, they are but thin air..
Ai gets rid of the proverbial rats ( the work and thought process, which is incredibly alluring to anyone who doesn’t have a process they love, heck even the need to master something if you can outsource it to some VA in the Philippines ), while simultaneously leading the very humans dependant on that very automisation over the cliff with the rats. This is a problem. People who are lost, need to discover where they are, and find a healthy path to where they want to go. Not find some stranger with an appealing message who can ‘deliver Eldorado’ for a interesting price.
The reason humans need to see people speaking on subjects is because we need to see if they know what they’re talking about. Because confidence is visible, and authority is earned. You can’t fake it. This is why people like Jay Shetty erk the f out of me, because our spidy senses know somethings off. Sure they get fame and wealth and all that. But the ‘issue’ will come out sooner or later, which means they’re always having to tiptoe around that thing, cover, adapt, lie, building scaffolding to protect that thing – interestingly you can manipulate this and use this creative power when you’re entertaining people, it’s less good when you’re leading from example, which is why people have a shared perspective. It’s difficult to know what to believe. — Like all Conmen, who have no idea where their footing is or what to feel about them, because they’re not grounded or based in reality.
However, Authority is earned by overcoming the very struggles and fighting to master them, thus gaining authority by surpassing the very thing that happened to have power over us. If any kid with access to Ai can automate text based on peoples pain found in comments in comment sections, then stick that generated text into Ai and transform it into a confident appealing and authoritative voice with appealing images; then collect more of peoples pain by essentially farming the comment sections for information from viewers who are spilling their guts out with the hopes of being understood. Over and over…
You’re essentially stringing people on, misleading them, and ultimately and possibly using the last hope they had to combat what they’re going through. You’re manipulating people out of the energy they need to overcome the struggles they face. This energy is normally allocated safely within us. But since authors like Nir Eyal have decided to bend the world over and f it shamelessly, we have a bunch of silicon valley start-ups and morally bankrupt Harvard code grads ready to do anything so long as its based in logic and rationality. This is a problem, because its convincing, but its not based in grounded truth.
If I could depict this person, it would be a human being, it would be a Man with confidence, ultimately listening to people who are struggling, who tells them he’ll take care of all of their troubles and to let go of all their concerns and relax for all will be taken care of… The people hand over their pain, and the man makes a lovely profit.
This is what happens when modern day conmen decide to produce content. The end user gets f’d. But not in a monetary sense, in a time and attention. Which is worse, they’re putting utter garbage in peoples heads, and because they feel disempowered, they seek for hope in others – and this is why I don’t believe we should depend on externalities without at least some form of ability of discernment. ( as a man at least, in the world we live in, we need to be the pillars other people lean on and find a sense of home in… ).
When those viewers realize that these 10 year old conmen wasted their time, used them to make a profit, and ultimately mislead them without providing and actual solution; the result could be more catastrophic than predicted, as the viewer is left worse off due to being cajoled in lies. ‘Follow me just this way, I have a special offer for you…‘ said the shady salesman, licking his lips and readying himself to take their life savings…
The powers of Ai are important and the responsibility to dispense information and take a position of authority with confidence too. Regulation and fact checking must ensue. Because the cost of leading people who are lost in mind and trouble, is that we could ultimately lose them in flesh and blood. But, because there is no threshold to entree into content creation, anyone can say anything and he who has the highest leverage ultimately wins over everyone else, but at what cost?
As toying with peoples pain and aiming to gain has nothing of service but purely profit driven, we’re essentially saying that as a society that technocrats have the right to decide what’s what because they have a ton of VC money and profits from mindless people jumping into things without understanding the consequence and we give them power because they have the money to take a position of authority. The path to wealth doesn’t mean you are a good leader, it just means you’re able to execute well and mentally drive people to purchase the outcome you’re offering.
If people like Altman are given such positions, we as human beings only have to lose. Because the consequence of our societal belief, that money is the deciding factor on what gives people authority ultimately sets us all up for a law of who has the most power, which is a decent into medieval law of the strongest. If anyone can brute force their way into swaying people, even mindless kids with dollars in their eyes, then as a collective we should be on guard, because what comes next could be absolutely catastrophic.
Soar
Feel its intensity. Feel the sharp edge cutting that brutal ego,
Feel all of the magic entering, feel the flow.
The darkness rising in beautiful harmony with the light.
Lucid homeostasis, after the fight.
Intermingling of values at astronomical hights,
Lifting those crushing weights, intergalactic flights.
Your soul takes off and kisses the wind.
‘Lift off‘ they marvel! As you soar higher than a kite.
Love is coming back, overwhelmed at first sight,
Breathless you’re cherished, held by your kin.
Your life’s work shining, showing all of your might,
Your sacrifice and beauty, all those hard nights spent,
It’s all coming full circle, all those obstacles… Bent.
Power is surging, as the night circles tight.
Your soul is electric; the fire is back.
The lights are blinding, expanding, transcending;
silent? Not quite..
The wind is ecstatic, and ready to attack.
A storm’s a-forming,
God’s back, you’ve been… Told
The purpose of clouds.
It is, I believe a test of faith that we are able to overcome what we’re going through, that we do have it in us, to bypass whatever we’re struggling with, and that we are smart enough to find a solution to our problems.
Under a black cloud, there is often shade. This prevents us from seeing clearly, even if we may know our truth. When we can’t see much, we often stumble and fall. And that is precisely the purpose of being under a cloud, or having light momentarily removed.
It is for us to remain steadfast and certain in our light. We are to burn through that fictitious limitation. — Fear. Preventing us from being fully what we are in the light of events and circumstances.
But guess what, that same shade is simply asking you to shine brighter, to become more convinced of how special you are, to breakthrough, to step out into the light in full faith that you know what is true despite evidence of the contrary.
You see, when you’re living in a traumatic bubble, you’re living in a limitation, a lie, and that set of conditions / circumstances, creates an illusion that you’re not all that you are. This isn’t true. It may seem true. But, if you know that simply by turning on a switch, you can change something. Then, it’s just a question of optimization and defining the limitations that you’re dealing with so that you can overcome them.
So, find what makes you shine, find where your speciality is, and fortify that.
You’re not being reduced. You’re required to expand and outgrow. Perhaps find new ways, and new paths.
When you level up, there’s an even bigger boss to conquer; level up again.
Get up, try again, build up, no matter what the evidence is. Believe.
In german, be-lieve, means to run towards something that we are.
So define what you are, and run towards it. You can’t fail at being you, because you are you.
Like saying the sky isn’t the sky, or the sun isn’t a sun.
It’s not because a cloud is in front of the sun, that the sun shines any less.
Embrace the journey, it will lead you to you.
Both Batman, and Superman are lead by a calling before they enter their season of power. Batman meets Ras al Ghul, Superman finds the fortress of solitude. Batman discovers his power and bypasses the master. Superman finds his sense of identity.
It’s on the route into the world, however lowly it seems, where profound power in the journey out of the familial home.
There are times where you will fail, you will stumble. You will be called to overcome your struggle, but your journey will lead you to confront your fears, find your personal solution, and rise.
The pit is not a pit, but a womb.
The invincibility year.
This is my invincibility year. How do I know?
Last year I was absolutely destroyed. Obliterated.
I’ve never been broken down this much, I’ve never been so powerless, I’ve never been so broken, I’ve never been so lost.
And I know, from past experience, that whenever you reach the absolute bottom of something, the only way is up.
So, the point is to know, what is the limit that you’re able to descend to?
The last time I sunk low was when I was in the finger painting academy 10 years ago. And even that didn’t break me. But what I learned when I touched that rock bottom, was that, there was no other way but up.
So, now, I believe that I’m going through a season of integration, of all the tools I built, all the tools I discovered through the last 10 or so years and I’m having to re-build myself and every brick so that instead of simply being an incredible building, one becomes a majestic sky-scraper – touching both earth and sky. As my current expansion has forced me to go higher, and by consequence, dig deeper into my roots in order to muster the strength and energy to go higher.
But, as the saying goes, “what is to give light must endure burning “, and that… that is painful.
If you look at 99% of candles out there, there is a metal base holding the wick. An invincibility year is going to fortify your foundation so that you can burn without wobble.
The invincibility year is the year after the Destruction year. Where everything crumbles and you get to see what was behind the rigid obsolete paint. The building blocks behind the scaffolding. The invincibility year, is the year were everything falls down and you see that not everything was lost, and that the hard work you efforted is still standing and is demanding to be applied in a new way than you have been applying it so far.
It’s about understanding the new way to go forward with the new configuration you’ve got, and fully embracing a path forward towards a new destination, despite the impression that everything is doomed.
How to survive, when life is tough.
Crawl through the Fog.
Don’t focus on the end result. Focus on doing the best you can here and remaining block solidly loyal to the end result in relation to what you’re trying to achieve. But, don’t focus on the end result, focus on the process.
This is the Fog issue. When you’re driving in fog, you can only focus where you can see the road. Focus on the road. You know that when you arrive, you will arrive home or wherever you’re going. But for now, you don’t get the luxury of looking at your home. You do however, have the luxury of seeing the road. And the road is what will get you there.
- Right now, if you’re seeing this, it means that you don’t have the luxury to sit around and hope for a better future.
- You must execute. You must do. Step by step.
- This step by step process is your journey to where you’re going.
- Your points of refueling must add up to create the output for the actions on your journey.
- Your actions, must be made with Hope that you will attain that point of Home.
But, you don’t have the leisure of sitting around or solving your problem, you don’t have the luxury of waiting for your injury to heal. It’s game time now, and you need to limp to the finish-line.
Those women who hate their fathers
A woman who spends her time in her mind actually hates her father and cannot allow herself to feel fully. Which prevents her from fully embracing and empowering her man.
Women who hate their fathers will destroy the men in their lives, simply by projection of the unfinished hate pattern occurring in their lives.
When the women in your life undermine your every act, or empower you to go the wrong way, you are actually dealing with women who don’t believe in you. And with a smile on their face, they will drive your personal annihilation.
Beware, because these people will seem like the best of friends, and to an extent, they will allow you to make mistakes. Which will free you, so they are allies.
A kid who’s parents hate each other will constantly be torn, until he manages to bring the two sides into alignment with a common goal.
A mother who hates her father, will hate her husband or bring out ‘areas of concern’ in the man simply by what she perceives -even if it doesn’t necessarily exist in the first place – and she will end up on an internal level with her Kid, as the emotions which contradict the mind.
If a man hates his mother, he will end up belittling his wife, and in the process showing to the children, that the mind can be hyper critical of the emotions to the extent of actual emotional detachment and residing solely in a space of idea instead of fully living.
Bring these two states together and you have a wild recipe for self destruction, or if you see the bright side in things, you see wild opportunities for personal growth and development!
