A life without pain. Is impossible.
But a life without suffering. Is possible.

Notes (20)
I have an insight -> try to post about it -> think about possible misinterpretations and nitpicking -> delete draft and never post. This has been happening a lot lately.
Short-form content, especially video, is the sugar of the mind. I am quitting it. The best tool I have is my brain, and I can’t afford to weaken it. A weak attention span is like erectile dysfunction for the mind.
If you allow your heart to be filled with hate, you are ripe for manipulation. You are vulnerable.
My path was always set to have doubters along the way. I have been met by many doubting walls. Sometimes I walk around them, and at other times I jump over them, but it has never entered my mind to stop and give up. It never stops hurting like Motherf***** though. Right on✊🏾
The messenger matters. The truth is not enough on its own. In an ideal world it is but in reality it isn’t.
It seems to me more prudent to be silent until you have the credibility that allows you to be heard and taken seriously. Until then, let your actions speak your truth.
I am a collector of good people. When I find them, I make the effort to keep them. They’re more precious than gold. They make this life beautiful.
The bitcoin epiphany hits like a tonne of bricks. Especially if you get to it on your own.
Some ideas are profound but not shareable with others who are not yet ready for them.
Build to impress users not other devs. Users are the gold.
Keep your heart open, feel everything, let it touch you and pass through you. Even pain has some beauty.
The only reason for working for financial freedom is not for acquiring things, but for freedom to serve purely. To only have one God and have people just be peers worthy of respect and love but not worship. To not be above or beneath anyone.
My ultimate dream is to experience love without need, to serve without agenda, to act without the underlying desperation of trying to fix my existence.
I always have to remind myself that talk is cheap. Doing, has skin in the game and commands more respect and admiration from me.
There’s no substitute for thinking for yourself. It’s impossible to achieve sovereignty as an individual if you can’t think independently and don’t have high agency.
He is super smart and looks innocent but don’t be fooled by that face, he is not as innocent as he looks.
He just gives me love.
The road will get you thinking very deeply about your life.
What if you needed nothing and all your actions flowed from purpose, love, and service. That sounds like a beautiful life for me.
Watch out for too many logs in your code. It can end up making testing a nightmare.
