How To Make Sense Of This World
Over 35 years of my life the same pattern continue to show up over and over.
Something I have found that has provided me increasing success in how I think or formulate ideas in business or in sports…
Building foundations of rock and not of sand.
Easier said than done. How do you begin to travel down that road?
Everything you study, believe, and subsequently do should be through “first principles”, generalized principles, nature’s law and/or God’s laws.
Everyone I have witnessed, in 35 years of life, who operates under this premise I have found it is inevitable that they eventually become successful in their Body, Being, Balance, Business.
Proof of Work vs Proof of Stake Life
Put the time in each day and focus like a laser to not dissipate your reach and become the best version of yourself possible.
God is a rewards-based God, not a needs-based God.
He doesn’t give you things just because you are in need.
He gives you talents and it is up to YOU to figure out how to provide value and give that back to society.
Then you are rewarded once you put in the WORK.
We live in a world of ever growing proof of stake individuals who want to just show up and be given things because of their previous performance (privilege.)
I grew up in a world where you were only as good as your last shift.
You have to perform and compete every game, every shift, every second.
This is what keeps the competition level and quality of the game, high.
We must show the proof of work being done in order to obtain the rewards.
I have witnessed much of society thinking they can just roll out of bed at noon and vote for themselves a living through politicians without doing the work.
That game is over.
How to Decipher the Language of the Unproductive Class
In order to make sense of the governments moves and the global leaders and organizations is you HAVE to put on your “control glasses.”
The reason the unproductive class are doing things is NOT for your benefit or because they CARE about inflation or helping the climate or helping the average person.
Please read that again.
EVERY move the unproductive class makes has to be looked at through the lens of power and control…
Only then does EVERYTHING become immediately clear as to what they are doing and why they are doing it.
They want control and to crush the middle class and poor so they beg for more handouts and bills to be passed.
Translation: more power for the government as more people become dependent on them.
Examples of Clown World
Out of control inflation? We’re going to print MORE currency and increase spending (ie. Inflation Reduction Act) AND We will tax the businesses (producers, so they produce less) and give out stimmies to the consumers so there’s now more inflation because of the increased demand and less supply.
Improve health? Look you in your cage and don’t go outside and don’t take vitamins and get a mask! No don’t get a mask! Wait, yes get a mask!
We want to hurt Russia! They sanction them which only then hurt the Europeans and all others who utilize Russian commodities.
War on Poverty? We give out welfare and food stamps and train people to live off government creating more dependence and poverty. Oh and we incentivize women to have children out of wedlock by giving them money for every child!!!
War on terrorism? Not a dent made to terrorism around the globe. Only $7T wasted and thousands of lives destroyed.
Currency collapsing? We will print even more currency to bail out hedge funds, banks, and pensions which will ONLY increase asset prices out of the reach of the regular person over the long run. Making the currency less desirable, collapsing it even more!!
We want only truth, no misinformation!!! So we are going to fact check or cancel anything that stymies our narrative or any shred of public discourse.
Band-Aids On Bullet Holes
Everything the government does is a short term fix. Band aids on bullet holes, because politicians always want to get reelected.
The addict who keeps taking short term hits to fix the cravings instead of fixing the foundational problems.
A good rule of thumb is that EVERY name a government gives a bill you can expect exactly the opposite outcome.
Every time a central banker says something, you can expect the exact OPPOSITE thing to happen every time.
Whether it is government or your OWN life; we MUST take action to build a solid foundation of 2 + 2 = 4.
If you take the foundation you are building your life on and start making it with pancake mix instead of concrete mix, you won’t go very far.
We must come to grips with reality.
Only then can we begin to understand why culture continues to falter.
Our models and foundation are broken.
It will take men and women of conviction to stand and start DOING.
Stay strong,
