Saturday Seven's: 10th June 23
A compilation of my findings, interests, and actions from the past week that might be of interest to you. It allows me to share the results of my weekly routine, and you can follow too!
Hello you!
Here you will find my findings from this past week, things I’m thinking about, and discovering. If you enjoy it, feel free to forward this along to friends (they might enjoy it too!).
What I’ve listened to:
Video’s I saved:
Quotes I’ve liked:
“For everything that you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
“There is no such thing as a long piece of work, except the one that you dare not start.” - Charles Baudelaire
“I had a mother who taught me there is no such thing as failure. It is just a temporary postponement of success.” - Buddy Ebsen
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truely want to become. Everything else is secondary.” - Steve Jobs
“You must be single minded. Drive for the one think on which you have decided.” - George S. Patton Jr.
“The more you can dream, the more you can do.” - Micheal Korda
This week’s curiosities, interests, and thoughts:
Thoughts I’ve kept:
The potential archetype
Whatever a father represents for his daughter, his daughter will see in a man. And if a man doesn’t represent those traits then she won’t be attracted.
Same for a woman, whatever a mother represents to her son, he will then see that potential within his future wife. Or search for ‘what feels righ’ with matching potential schematics.
It’s about structural compatibility and education from the crib up.
If you can’t do something slowly without pressure, you won’t be able to do it well when the time comes and you do have pressure.
If you consume fear based content you will produce fear based thoughts. Want to be confident? Then imbibe, be around, consume anything or anyone that delivers confidence. What brings confidence out in you? Overcoming obstacles, growth, independance, undoing fear, mastery, trust…
What can I do (a) that can make a tone of money, (b) that will be in high demand?
What is the current pain point we’re all living through at this time?
What is my purpose? And how can I apply that purpose to solve a pain point that demands a solution?
To become more masculine, study masculinity, masculin ways, masculine archetypes.
To better your skills, study your skillset and seek to acquire more understanding.
To become confident, DO.
To develop health, apply all that is good for your body and emotion.
To get the life you want, craft an ecosphere that breeds the outcomes that you want.
What is the risk of Letting Go of being/doing (what I’m doing currently) and living like this? → What would happen and what is possible if I decide to have a complete and radical lifestyle shift?
When I cut off from the world at large I’m happy. When I connect to the world on social media I become miserable and overworked. I cannot keep up with everything going on in the world.
When you become a creator, you become sensitive to the worldly patterns around. You pick up on the “worldly patterns” in the ether, the general vibe going on at that moment in time. This is what Micheal Jackson was talking about when talking to his producer, that he needed to produce that song right then and there on the spot, for if he didn’t he feared that “Queen will pick up on it and record it..”.
Everytime I feel the discomfort of my environment and feel the need to escape, I sit with it, push through it, or go for a run. The need feel the escape cannot happen because we cannot escape from the mounting energy within. The pain or fear is within. Therefore any escape to any place on earth, will only render the same results.
The world won’t make you rich until you’re rich within.
Rich within → Capable of providing high value.
Ability to provide high value = Investing in yourself over and over until your value cannot help but overflow in each interaction or any expression.
Continual value addition → Quality content + Quality intention.
Who am I?
What are my skills?
What is my essence?
What is natural to me?
How can I fit that into a purpose to help people?
What have I overcomE?
What insights have I gained from my darkest days?
How can my journey fortified me?
A leader comes to get you where you are and leads you to where you need to go.
There is no such thing as gendered energy. There is only applied energy. There is only labled energy. Your mind determines what you feel as good or bad. Everything you experience is in relation to your mindset, to what you anchor deep down. Your mindset, like an anchor determines the way you experience everything you go through.
Whatever you focus on, you grow.
Energy goes where attention flows.
Focus on cultivating great emotions. To do so, you must know yourself, you must be excited about your future. Consume what you want to appreciate and spread.
You cannot share a path to success, because when you share what works for you, you unroot the plant that gives you the fruit of your success. You can’t share what makes you feel great, without it being firmly rooted and a part of who you are, your identity. It must emanate naturally from you. Not consciously, in an attempt to get attention. You must practice what makes you shine from within. → Calling.
If you cannot make mistakes, you cannot outgrow them. If you can’t outgrow them you’re limited by he who doesn’t allow them. Therefore you can never outgrow those who limit you while you’re in their presence. They block the sun from making you bloom.
If a dynamic of a relationship changes after you make a mistake, and there is a subtle shift, they judged you and you can no longer evolve in their eyes. You’re in a box.
If you see how fast people move on after you die, you wouldn’t give two fucks about what people, let alone a stranger, thinks of you. Shockingly fast.
There is no such thing as extrinsic freedom. A prisoner will always think like a prisoner until he evolves his mind and discoveres, mentally, that he is free.
Find a traditional category and transform it digitally.
Making a plan involves aiming for an outcome and then trusting that that outcome will workout all right.
Imagine 8bn circumstances all expanding and shrinking on multiple levels, colliding … at the same time. Imagine a proceesor or AI capable of conducting 8Bn sepearate autonomous functions at the same time with a specific purpose.
All with a specific common goal. This is what God does. He is in control, knows what he is doing and his plan is better than the one you have in mind.Trust that his plan is ultimately better than anyone’s.
Your Sense of value is equal to what you have overcome to get to (the (finishline)) through the door of success.
What you overcome = your value.
Your experience = transmuted obstacles/life = lessons / tools.
Comparing your self-worth to someones networth is a problem.
Self-worth = your value
Net-worth = degree of value provided to others.
No networth? People will instantly disguard your self-worth and potential distributed value.
It’s not because you’re serving millions today that you won’t serve millions tomorrow. Nothing is constant. Especially not humanity.
What is valuable if money (net-worth) suddenly vanishes?
Skills
Health
Material
Property
Relationships
Vision
Confidence
Empathy
Belief
Faith
The contrast of doing work you enjoy is that when you overcome challenges through that work, you also get to appreciate anything those challenges afford you. They afford you so much more than if you’d simply been given something. They say we appreciate what we work for. This is true, only the reason is that by working we are finetuning ourselves to the more minute details and that is “refinement”. This refinement isn’t a tangible thing, but a quality that allows us to see the subtle finite within the material plane of existance.
In order to appreciate life to the fullest, invest in your fitness. That will give you access to feelings you never thought possible.
The longer your endurance/stamina, the more you can enjoy excitement.
A monotone / static existance promotes monotone static experience on an emotional level. You just experience things on a different level when you’re fit.
Fitness of health = longevity of excitement = better experience.
Men shouldn’t watch porn to jerk off. In fact they shouldn’t jerk off at all. What they should do is use porn to create desire which they funnel into phyiscal exercise. Porn should be in gyms? lol. Maybe.
We all know the increase of energy we suddenly get when a girl is in our life. Love gives us wings. A hot girl gives us energy for some reason. Its this excitement that men should search for. Though they should disguard the sex and reap the rewards.
Questions I’ve asked:
What is the difference between Praying and Begging?
Am I aiming for a life I’d be excited to live?
What adventures have I been on lately?
What is preventing me from living the life of my Dreams?
What kind of life would I like to live if I didn’t “have obstacles”?
What is my Bucket-List?
What is a high demand type value?
What do I need to subtract from my life?
If I were to narrow down my life to a few points of focus, what would I be allowed to do, while also delivering the outcome I want?
What outcome do I want more than anything in the world?
What am I willing to compromise all and everything on in order to have / achieve?
What do I want? And what am I willing to pay for it?
