Performance Human Being MARK II: Become the Powerman

Just drive a Prius — make your human body the performance thing!

For example, all of these skinny fat losers driving around in their Porsche 911 cars, their Tesla plaid, etc., physically and physiologically speaking, none of them are impressive.

Instead — performance human being?

Trolling around craigslist, why is it that so many people are selling their Tesla’s?

It seems that the only real good reason to get a Tesla is for the auto pilot. Not the other random electric stuff.

For example, better to only spend 500 dollars a month in rent and deal with minor annoyances than to live a more “zen” and peaceful life but spend a buttload of money.

The best way to think and conquer minor annoyances in life. A good stoic motto.

• Publilius Syrus
• Heraclitus

To naturally boost your testosterone, a natural muscle building steroid?

Also I slept insanely well last night and woke up naturally very early with great vigor!

How to lose fat (adipose tissue)

The replacement method. Substitution theory.

De+specio: to look down at someone, literally.

Sidebar design is bad design.

Note to Apple and beyond — figure out ways and be intelligent to GET RID of the sidebar!

Also to iPad team — get rid of sidebar.

Better to have an inferior design, that which you did yourself, rather than having someone else do it for you, who might do a better job.

Anti boring. Better to be entertaining and bad and evil, than to be good and boring.

Very simple — no breakfast no lunch, 100% carnivore diet, only water and black coffee:

Beef liver:

Certainly it is not — but just think … if your net worth were truly $10 billion dollars USD, how would you live your life differently?

As told to me by my friend Peter Phan — via one of his friends in class at UC Berkeley.

I am the king:

Cumin, cayenne, Italian seasoning, black pepper, Maldon sea salt.

Also, mustard and Tabasco!

PODCAST

Consider no thought truly great, unless it is your own:

The supreme joy of thought and thinking

AUDIO

An insanely good lift:

Grip training and more:

AUDIO

When in doubt, just go out!

AUDIO

Better to become more courageous!

Thus my passion for trying to hit new personal records in all of my lifts.

Better to be encouraging, and have pride in the body.

Body pride.

I love linen! I think linen is the future.

I am a big fan of the outlier.nyc grid weaved linen towel, it is phenomenal every day towel. Also really really good for yoga. And really good for travel.

Currently working on creating my own linen series. And my own linen products. And my own linen work out travel towel. Subscribe to eric kim newsletter to stay updated.

What we are lacking in modern day life is fresh, new virtues. Carte Blanche ethics.

For combat — this is what was the life motivator for Achilles.

Let us consider, Achilles had no intention of “improving“ himself, or making himself “better“.

what did Achilles desire? He just wanted Breisis, and retire back home. Yet, he still had the longing lust for battle.

In modern day times, perhaps for me at least, I have a list for the gym, the last two attempt insanely heavy weights, as a form of battle with the iron and gravity.

Think uber:

For Apple Watch; not ‘A healthy leap ahead’, but — “Become Healthier”

Or,

“Empower Your Health”

Also a good idea:

1. Focus on the normal ‘Apple Watch‘ for women
2. For men, focus on the Apple Watch Ultra (Titanium)

Also, another marketing thought:

Move More

For the new iPhone Pro and beyond– suggestions:

1. Don’t focus on this silly “Pro.Beyond”. This makes no sense. Instead, the idea should be ‘Your New Camera’ — the focus on the camera!
2. Also, the focus should be on how the camera is so much more epic — not this gimmicky ‘Dynamic Island’ thing.
3. Or, perhaps to get some Steve Jobs vibes– “Think Pro.”
