Cold which strengthens, cold which weakens?

Nobody is a match for me

I hate people with a bad attitude

I love black and white video!

Or even a Tesla?

I believe that the wrong idea that a lot of people have towards entrepreneurship is that the point is just to become really rich, become a billionaire, etc.

However on the contrary, I believe the point is to instead, just have freedom to try something new, build something new, sell something you, sell a new type of service, etc.

Let us note the big downside of communist society is that free enterprise is not allowed. Any pseudo-Marxist, Leninist, Communist who owns an iPhone, goes to Whole Foods, has a Netflix subscription, has Amazon prime, drives a Tesla, or even a Prius, is a fraud.

Therefore, perhaps the notion of free enterprise is a good one. Giving people and citizens opportunity to try something new.

The only detriment we can suffer is regulation. In America, it seems that a lot of entrepreneur have massive headaches because of just being able to get the right regulations to do something or build something. Then, to encourage entrepreneurship is to remove this bureaucracy, remove these behaviors, remove these regulations.

Certainly safety is critical, but it seems that nowadays, all of the safety contract companies; it is just like a Ponzi scam. Free money for them.

What I have discovered through weightlifting, powerlifting is this: hitting a new PR, personal record is pretty uneventful. For me, the greater joy is even having the privilege and opportunity to attempt a new personal record.

Then, our joy is not hitting a certain number, but always, attempting more.

Ergon means work.

Orange county is better for fitness culture, working out, lots more powerlifting gyms, and also, easy access to the Costco business center, for meat.

Also more sunshine.

Build your economic future!

High in the sky

Just think of yourself like Zeus on mount Olympus, insanely high looking down.

I love flying window seat looking out!

All day natural light

Per diem lifestyle

Being in an airplane is like a superpower ?

Why you’re more productive on iPhone mini or iPhone SE — the weight savings! Helps with swiping. Also holding the device. Less fatigue.

Manipulate the physical

Can you imagine a John Wick wearing a Patagonia vest or jacket?

What is the new privilege? The privilege of focus.

Never trust the artwork from somebody who is weak, anemic, or skinny fat.

Or in other words, look at the artist, not their artwork.

The physiological health of an artist is imputed into their artwork.

After a travel thing, I feel rejuvenated?

Don’t disdain those living in pain.

“It is simple. If it jiggles, it is fat.” – Arnold Schwarzenegger, in the pumping iron documentary

The hilarious irony is that if you want someone to read something, make the text less legible, more disclear.

Some funny biases:

First of all, “skinny” as a man is a bad thing. But what does that really mean? Typically, when we critique a man being skinny, it is like saying skinny means weak. But if you are “skinny“, and able to lift over nine plates, then, what does it mean to be a “skinny“?

“Samchon (uncle) I don’t get it … you’re so skinny, but so strong.” – My 4 year old niece Amelia

Being fat is bad

One of the bad new trends is that a lot of these guys are trying to chase mass, to “Waymore“, and also to get “bigger“. As a consequence, they obsessively check their weight on the scale, and by all means just try to weigh more. However the downside of this is that it just makes them fat. They eat too much junk, like carbohydrates, starches, bread and pasta, etc., just to weigh more, but as a consequence, their weight is just more fat mass.

The only pair of ALLBIRDS I would ever consider buying. All black.

Assuming that thinness and lightness is the closest thing to godliness, why do we keep making every new generation iPhone, figure, thicker, fatter, more bloated?

My personal thought is improving your design is making it more simple, more streamlined, etc.

Human aesthetics is only aesthetics which matter.

For example, I really hate hats. When I am wearing a baseball cap, I hate the way it looks and I hate the way it makes me feel. I feel 1 billion times better when instead, my hair is styled differently — sides closely shaven, and hair gelled and styled and slicked back. Cindy calla it my “Lamborghini hair”.

Design as an imputation of yourself, your values.

Art is the answer!

At the end of the day, the end goal is to just (keep) making art!

Apple should just discontinue it.

At age 2 years and 2 months old, Seneca is already applying filters to videos!!

Now what?

Then channel your extreme happiness for the better! Towards innovation and entrepreneurship!
