Hm not catching the logic. I was exploring a possibility, sometimes unconscious biases come into play. Doesnt have to be true though but I suspect it's the case

For exploration sake, how is your own behavior toward them? Do you think you might be creating a self fulfilling prophecy/confirmation bias? When i am kind i notice most people match my energy, regardless of their race, gender, sexuality. So maybe it could do with that?

I remember reading this one a few years ago https://www.amazon.com/Experience-Insight-Simple-Buddhist-Meditation/dp/1611808162/ref=asc_df_1611808162?mcid=c836bd94a40e3f78b90b92eb75629ccc&tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693033695478&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12771427384004161331&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1026515&hvtargid=pla-929917253172&psc=1&dplnkId=a751ee72-5dff-481e-9fad-d576c0593ee0 Very inspiring book on the theory and practice of insight meditation. Damn just reminded me how much gold there is out there

i spent a lot of time developing my ideas and contemplation abilities. i think mine got pretty decent over the years however, i am shifting my focus to being all in on embodiment. i feel like my development and life mastery is 100x more important than the quality of my ideas (while still important). i want max level embodiment essentially a similar focus as me

Sf. I wanna be around the tech bros lol

Hey with that logic you should rant against the patriarchy. There are *many* male incel shooters that hated women.

@Romanov gotcha. he is tricking the public to a good extent though >the 2017 Trump tax law: Was skewed to the rich. Households with incomes in the top 1 percent will receive an average tax cut of more than $60,000 in 2025, compared to an average tax cut of less than $500 for households in the bottom 60 percent, according to the Tax Policy Center (TPC).[1] As a share of after-tax income, tax cuts at the top — for both households in the top 1 percent and the top 5 percent — are more than triple the total value of the tax cuts received for people with incomes in the bottom 60 percent. https://www.cbpp.org/research/federal-tax/the-2017-trump-tax-law-was-skewed-to-the-rich-expensive-and-failed-to-deliver bottom 20% received an average of $80 in tax cuts

how is trump populist? he's big on tax cuts for the wealthy, supports corporate, is anti-union, doesn't care about social programs (repeals them too) or social issues

So basically... republican? (Just jokes 😭)

What did you feel it was lacking?

not sure about the specifics here, but one thing i learned is that most philosophies have their place in some shape or form. in some contexts, a philosophy might be good in extremes, some contexts none at all, and other contexts somewhere in between

Isnt this moreso a trap of stage green rather than green being bad inherently. I think Green can be integrated with healthy orange to my knowledge

Another thing I thought of was that there many factors that contribute, outside of just your age. Things like age, prior foundation, self esteem, mindset, strategy, mental and physical health foundations, # of responsibilities etc. So while I do think age is a factor, if you optimize other areas you can still make extremely significant progress in building skills. I don't think it's as big of an issue if the rest is optimized well Also consider that while elite performers do experience declines, consider that when they decline their skill efficacy may be moving from maybe the top .00001% -> .001% over 10 years

I think to some extent yes, but you have a lot in your control still. People still learn new things when they're older. I know people who first start med school in their mid 30s. Or people pick up weightlifting in their 40s. My dad picked up yoga at 50 and hes quite good at many of the poses and theory (and he was pretty unathletic before). Majority of it is a limiting belief imo

damn. that's some good questioning, nice one

Ultimately you need a clear purpose for consumption - bc the consuming aspect is just a part of manifesting that goal Otherwise you are down a consumption rabbit hole that doesn't have much meaning Clarifying your goals and values might help

These are more structure related and not the techniques itself but, One point could be to continously challenging yourself to become more intelligent. Pushing your ideas, theories, letting go of pet theories for better ones, never getting complacent Also to surround yourself with people that are very intelligent. I think learning from others happens passively when surrounded by other smart people

Admittedly i did not watch it, but the "control any bitch" in the thumbnail has me verrry sus lol

Oh word?

Yk sometimes that's valid. Godspeed

What field do you work in? Can you get a work visa to another country?

Those studies sample size are for average people, not the world's highest performers. If the sample size of those studies was only the top .000001% I'm sure the outcome would be different But yeah I agree regardless, I wasn't implying pure deep work for 18 hours

elon is probably neurodivergent, maybe some type of high-functioning autism? i think he works like 18h/day like almost everyday. the exact details are in his biography. i dont think you could replicate in a healthy way nor do you even need that i think you could probably glean some positive aspects from him, like having a noble purpose, working hard & being efficient, and maybe some character traits in this area. His ethics obviously not anymore

I also resonate with elon musk in some aspects. Things like his work ethic and his business intelligence Politically wise not so much lol. Maybe also ethically too

Well, if you were to theorize, what generally goes into: > succeeding, financially and career-wise Like generally, what do people who succeed do, practically
