Only yourself.

Why? Because others are weak.

OpenAI.com vibes.

1. Photos which spark some sort of personal interest?
2. Shapes, forms geometry.

My goal is to become beyond.

Beyond man.

“I hate him because I am no match for him!” Has any man ever said this?

Nietzsche.

Also why do we want to be distinct?

How do you want to leave your mark on the earth?

THINK LIKE SAND:

1. Workout at the park, or your garage or your parking lot.
2. Lifestyle integration: Play with your kid and hang out with your kid while doing other stuff!
3. Fast wifi— upgrade your WiFi speeds to the max!

My thought: real healthy food doesn’t make you fat.

Essentially Kaizen–

Like EK:

1. No alcohol, no weed, no drugs.
2. Intermittent fasting— no breakfast and no lunch only dinner.

Also, what would a true Stoic-Spartan look like?

Think critical:

Pod

Sand is good

Open air concept:

Victor, victors, victory!

Everything out in the open — open air, open sun!

Demigod training.

Why be orthodox?

1. Rack pull

Mixed grip, chalk.

2. In between leg deadlift pull

Dinnie style? Like the dinnie rings:

3. Dip belt chain + in between leg deadlift

A gym on wheels?

Anti snobbery.

I think actually a very good idea!

Is it “rich”, “successful”, “elite” or something else?

iPhone Pro Titan — major anaemic marketing?

Some ideas:

1. Become the Titan
2. Stronger than Titan

Essentially the gist and idea is this:

By getting the iPhone Pro Titanium … you become *stronger* or as strong as titanium?

Or the idea that you can last forever?

For example my LINDBERG glasses frames — these bad boys have literally lasted me over a decade. Since I was around 22 years old, now I’m 35. And they’re made out of titanium! Insanely light, strong, pliable, don’t break, don’t rust, corrode etc.

Maybe also this angle on it being naturally antibacterial and anti allergenic is a good one?

How far can you go if you just did all the labor yourself?

Like a Greek statue?

I flex too hard?

Flex goals!

My 1 Trillion dollar idea, big bet?

1 trillion, 10 trillion dollar company?

Big bets?

Also — simple — just the salary of one, two, Amazon x Apple employees or executives?

Ghetto is best!

Also the bad guy and asshole?

1,500 and beyond?

The nuance is this — just don’t let that get in the way of doing what you want to do!

Perhaps the best way to live is to adopt a bayes model; that is, iterate on every single moment, every single day, based on the information or knowledge at hand.

For example, once you get a kid, their nap time and sleep time and routine is going to vary. Therefore as a consequence, it seems that the smart strategy is to decide and iterate based on the moment, figure out the best solution at hand, rather than trying to stick to some sort of hard set schedule.

For example exercise. Ever since moving to LA, we are landlocked. Therefore a smart strategy is to simply work out at home, in your garage parking lot, outdoors, or just going to the park or whatever is close at hand without traffic.

Some more thoughts about hippies:

Maybe we should not refer to them as “woke“ people, or the “woke“ crowd. Instead, just think of them and call them hippies.

Let us recall the scene from the Once upon a time in Hollywood movie, in which all of these strange self-righteous hippies get their due at the very end.

I have a realization: all of these new weird modern trends, they are just like the noveau hippies.

What does this mean? For example, anyone who is too into craft beer, spirits and alcohol, marijuana, drugs, EDM electronic dance music, concerts and festivals, dogs, Japan, flannel and vintage clothing, “culture”, sunglasses and facial hair, designer things etc.

Or when people take coffee snobbery to the next level, or people who are too into analogue/analog, anti digital, the strange romanticism of the past. Also spending too much time on their iPhone or iPhone Pro.

Also, too much media consumption, inability to meet eye contact in real life, to make small talk, to interact or engage with others, or lift weights.

Also this strange trend towards “plant-based” diets, vegetarianism and veganism, and juice.

My solution

1. 100% carnivore diet, beef and lamb, beef large intestine, beef tendon, tongue, beef liver, beef heart. Bone marrow, lamb leg and steak and ribs.
2. Lifting insanely heavy weights. True manly lifts.
3. Maximum time outdoors and in the direct sun.
4. No cars.

Similarly speaking, street photography is the best photography?

Leasehold — it seems that the traditional notion of a lease was some thing that held you.

For example, if you’re leasing a car, you’re still beholden to make payments on it.

Therefore any sort of lease is basically a notion of being held, or being able to be let go.

Our greatest thoughts come to us while walking, outside. Preferably in the direct sun.

Therefore the logic of walking is simple; walking will give birth to great ideas.

Not only that but maximum time in the direct sun is the ultimate turbocharger and stimulus for us. I think all of this strange propaganda against being in the direct sun is just a ploy for these corporations to sell more sunblock and skin care products!

Muscle beach, muscle streets?

Use yourself as your own model?

Even a minute in traffic is too long!

100% pure pedestrian lifestyle?

My passion for the sun?

I am a photo visionary?

Exhibition, exhibitionist? I am an exhibitonist?

All action, all the time?

It ain’t even a money issue; I just prefer the convenience and less headaches of renting vs home ownership!

No no no no, the UV rays ain’t finna give you skin cancer. The true root of our strength *is* from the UV rays, the sun!

As a simple life approach:

Strive to always maximize your time in the direct sun, the direct UV’s!
