Beyond Pain and Pleasure

A life which goes BEYOND simply trying to maximize your pleasure and minimize your pain.

Instead, a life focused on achieving epic grandeur, reckless experimentation, and great heights!

Good pain

There is good and bad pain.

Good pain: invigorates you, gives you strength, gives you motivation.

Bad pain: debilitating, weakening, depressing.

In order to become great, you must maximize the GOOD PAIN.

Beyond basic pleasure

Of course pleasure is good, but too much focus on maximizing your “basic pleasures” seems to be a petty life goal.

Perhaps artistic pleasures are the supreme pleasure; the pleasure you get when you’re creating your own artwork!

Don’t make your pain or pleasure the focal point of your life. Perhaps to ignore these things might be best. Instead, focus on your own artistic creation, publishing and thriving.

New goals, new aims, and new horizons await you!
