What Are Big Issues I Seek to Solve?
What Are Big Issues I Seek to Solve?
CHANGES?
In this limited world, which are some big things you wish to change fix or resolve?
1. Traffic?
So one of the big things I am very interested in is fixing this issue of traffic. Honestly speaking, during rush-hour the traffic is intolerable.
I’ve only lived here in LA for about two weeks, it seems that the big optimization we are trying to make is trying to save time. Fortunately we live within walking distance to the Culver City downtown area, which is great because we could kill two birds with one stone — A) we’re not stuck in traffic and B) we can enjoy the sun and the walk.
Even the big issue; the closest LA fitness to me is a 5 minute drive, but even on the drive back, it seems that the bumper to bumper traffic during rush-hour takes me almost 10 minutes! Insanely annoying!
Therefore some things I’m trying to figure out is how to save time in terms of fitness. The first simple thing is to just walk a lot, walking maybe the most beneficial thing you could do for your health and wellness.
The second thing is sun exposure. The more sun time you have, the better. If you’re worried about getting skin cancer or whatever, just put on a hat lots of sunblock and cover up.
Third, I really been enjoying going to the park and working out, both for the social life, the fresh air, and also for general well-being. I recommend the Kenneth Hahn park in LA — just drive all the way on top of the hill! There is a good calisthenics workout area.
Fourth, matters of health and physiology. A very practical thought I have is to just sell out the big bucks, pay for the 100% grass-fed beef, I think the benefits for you will be instrumental. This includes sleeping better, sleeping deeper, feeling more energized, and also certainly muscle Physiology related concepts.
2. Innovation?
Also a big thing I’m trying to innovate and pioneer is in regards to innovation. For me maybe this is my personal passion and my Archimedes lever — I am addicted to innovation, trying to make things better, more efficient and effective etc., and trying to come up with interesting novel ways to improve our lives. Why is this? Because I feel like I have some sort of duty as I have been seeking a lot of answers my whole life, and I think only recently I’ve found some answers.
3. Photo and art
At the end of the day, my number one greatest passion is photography.
Therefore, my passion for photography; promoting photography, helping encourage photographers.
4. How to make an insanely great impact?
How does one make an insanely great impact on the planet? I think it is simple; just ascertain that which you are insanely concerned about, what you care insanely about, and then use all your resources and power to seek to resolve that!
Money?
The Peter Thiel idea:
Perhaps “profit†is a pedestrian concept.
Then instead, what we seek instead is not “making money“, but building something insanely great, and then the profits will follow later.
Elon Goals
The breath and future vision of Elon Musk is quite phenomenal. For example, driving in LA today, I saw the OG Tesla roadster, convertible electric car, which was essentially a retrofitted Lotus. Even when I was an undergrad at UCLA, I remember seeing one of the original Tesla dealerships.
Dream bigger?
A very simple thought I have is that it is best to set an audaciously great goal, and either miss it, or meet it halfway, rather than setting the bar too low.
What do you want out of your life?
Not happiness, not even necessarily “joy“. I think all of these are too overly simplistic commoditized notions.
For example, as man, what is it that we see to do achieve or create? I think this should be the critical goal, not happiness joy making money etc.

Solving Big Problems?
The problem with bitcoin is that it doesn’t really solve a big issue.
Verify means truth
Building a truthful world?
-
Primer Black?
Also some more LA thoughts; it really does seem that the most intelligent strategy is saving time. Planning your life around traffic, or avoiding traffic seems to be the keyway to live more, do more .

-
Just remove it, just get rid of it.
Also, another funny thought is that if you want to improve your health or well-being or become more productive, it ain’t about buying the newest iPhone pro, or device, but rather, just blowing more money on 100% grass fed beef.
-
EXTRAVAGANT, WASTEFUL MINDSET
Anti paucity mindset!
The big issue is nowadays, people have a positive mindset which is centered around less, some sort of refugee mindset, some sort of fear of loss etc.
In fact, when people make “saving money†as a virtue, I find it quite disgusting.
-
Why am I so passionate about photography?
1. My passion for catching a moment!
-
All Photographers Should Have Kids!
You’ll never get bored and always have something to photograph!
-
How dissatisfied are you?
I have a theory; perhaps the degree in which you are dissatisfied is the height you will rise!
For example, the more dissatisfied you are, perhaps the more you will entrepreneur, innovate, and do something great.

The Ethics of Self Promotion
To promote yourself may be the most ethical and honest thing you can do? Much more honest than promoting other things or other people.

JUST SHARE YOUR OPINION!
Just share what you think what you believe in:

- My only son
- I’m the only photography blogger?
- I’m also the only philosophy blogger who actually lifts weights?

PERFECTION.
Your child!

FLESH GOALS
- Maximum time outdoors in the direct sun, getting a full body tan.

How to Become “Healthierâ€
Simple:
First, intermittent fasting during the day. This means no breakfast no lunch, only one massive dinner a day.
Also the only beverages to consume is plain water, tapwater, and black coffee. I prefer 100% fine robusta, ERIC KIM OMAKASE COFFEE.
Also, quit alcohol, quit wine, this includes red wine, white wine, and all these other nonsensical beverages. Quit sparkling beverages, whether they be “zero calorie“ or not. In fact a new trend that I am approaching is just sticking to simple tapwater or filtered water.
Real Spartan men drink only tap water!
Also, don’t consume beer, hard spirits, whiskey etc.
Also, quit all starches, “vegetables“, fruit, etc. Fruit is just candy with a good conscience, and essentially all vegetables are starchy and sweet eventually, causing you to accumulate body fat.
What to eat?
Beef, lamb. Preferably fatty. The redder the better.
For beef, my first preference would actually be organ meats. Beef liver is a natural steroid. After that beef is also pretty good. And also beef tongue. I also love beef intestine, large intestine is my preference, then beef small intestine.
In terms of beef flesh meat, I like the meat close to the bones, beef ribs. Then after that, ground beef, either 8020 or 75/15. Preferably 100% Grassfed, I also recently discovered this really great Wagyu American ground beef at Costco. If you want to save money, beef brisket is pretty cheap. Very easy to cut up into cubes, and instant potted, or thinly sliced the fatty pieces and pan fry it!
Becoming healthier means becoming stronger

HOW DID ERIC KIM GET SO JACKED?





























Simple: hundred percent carnivore diet, intermittent fasting throughout the day, extremely heavy weightlifting.
-
Understanding your own bodily physiology
This is insanely critical!
-
Zen Temple
Buy a tatami mat for your home! At least two; one for your living room, one for your bedroom. Great to sit on, lie down and take a nap, hang out on etc.
-
iPhone Titanium is a Flop?
Today I handled an iPhone pro titanium, and was not impressed at all. Same same.
-
How to spot more photo opportunities
- Spend maximum time outside and outdoors!
- Ditch the car; 100% pedestrian lifestyle.
- Get insanely close, so close that your camera or lens doesn’t focus anymore.
-
The Philosophy of “Successâ€
Trying to seek or chase “success“ is a trap because it is just a basic commoditized notion, which drives people towards “productivityâ€, money generation etc.
-
Went to push through, when *not* to push through?
If the task at hand is insanely personally critical to you, push through. If not, don’t.
-
INSANE FOCUS
