So big question that a lot of people often ask me, I don’t know if they’re curious or suspicious or just kind of shocked, why is it that I’m so happy?

So the first thought is, I think I’m like ultra insanely super turbo healthy. I’m like the healthiest person that I know, and lately, I’ve even been doing hot yoga with Cindy every single day, in the morning after I drop off Seneca at school, and I feel super fucking Zen afterwards.

Also I guess the upside is we also ride our bicycles, which means we can maximize our time outside.

Food

So I think this is actually a very very underrated thing, the idea that, I think people don’t really understand how truly important food is.

I’ll give you example, the other day we went to the Mexican grocery market El super, and spent only $5.99 a pound of beef short rib ribs, Korean galbi.. we got 20 pounds, and also I got some beef liver, only $2.50 a pound. And after feasting on it last night, I woke up this morning feeling insanely alert and awake, and I’m pretty sure that the food has to deal with it.

Exercise

So my general thought is, certainly everything starts in the body. The mind is just an offshoot of the body, so the general idea is if you have an insanely healthy body, so shall your mind.

Granted, assuming you’re a human living in society, there will always be annoying things that happen, but, if you have an insanely God like body, and also assuming you’re sleeping like 8 to 12 hours a night, the big thing is that like, at worst things will only minorly annoy you, kind of like getting a mosquito bite. The world cannot exist without mosquitoes. And typically whenever I get a mosquito bite, I’m always super insanely annoyed at the mosquito but it’s kind of like, not really the mosquitoes fall it just does what it does. And so I feel like a lot of people on the planet are just like a bunch of mosquitoes, rather than describing blame or whatever to them, just be like fucking c’est la vie. I’d rather live in a beautiful society and live a happy life, with mosquitoes in it, rather than living this loser loaner lifestyle, not engaging with anybody, and not having mosquitoes.

Social risk taking

So a lot of people talk about risk, mostly about like finances, the financial market etc. Investing. But very rarely do we actually talk about risk in terms of social risktaking.

For example example, even a simple act of engaging somebody complementing them, is an act of courage, a tiny social risk. Why?

Well, in today’s super lame world, the way society is structure especially in America is towards non-engagement with anything and everything.

For example, people don’t even make eye contact with other people or say hello or compliment or engage them because maybe they are concerned that other person might take the wrong way, or, maybe the fear of not getting the love back?

And the truth is, assuming you’re an insanely friendly person like myself, it’s almost like guaranteed that if you compliment 100,000 people, there’s going to be one person who takes it the wrong way. However, the simple way to engage it, and think about it is, of course. And, it’s not a wise strategy to simply have the one negative encounter, totally reprogram your whole vibrant positive energy.

I’ll give you some examples, these are some unorthodox thoughts:

First,,,, I’m starting to get super suspicious in thinking, that, people don’t like me or they are suspicious of me because I am so insanely happy and friendly. Why is that, at least in America, the status quo is being dislike, detached antisocial loser, always wearing dark sunglasses, AirPods in, pretending like you don’t acknowledge all the other wonderful people around you. Lacking any social skills.

And also, the truth is in America, typically American culture is not, at least maybe in the big cities, productive of friendliness. Like they are in the Midwest and the south.

And actually the big thought I have is technology is not to blame. Technologies is just an offshoot of the issue, not the problem in itself.

To explain, it does not iPhones and social media that is making people antisocial. I think that route, there is a deeper sociological issue with hand.

So I think the status code is, “thou shall not engage with strangers, and also thou shall not make eye contact with strangers.” This is also a systemic problem, I think also this is an issue at schools institutions etc.… Because everyone’s just trying to avoid a lawsuit.

Therefore people act very cowardly, and they have no other option but to just retreat into their phones. Like for example, try riding a New York subway and smiling at somebody and saying hello. It’s not an iPhone issue it’s kind of a cultural issue.
