What that means is that I think humans don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t believe in their own self agency as much, we seem to not think that we have that much control over our destiny our bodies our souls etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The will to ERIC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ever since I was a kid, ever since I was a fat 1112-year-old kid in New York, my mom was working two full-time jobs, my dad was a deadbeat, just watching TV and movies at home all day, and I was a fat kid. I remember having a triple chin in the humid York summers, not being able to fall asleep because all the chins stacked on top of each other, and I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t fall asleep until I rub some Vaseline under my chins. I think I even recall weighing myself as a kid, maybe at around 11 years old, I think I was 120 pounds, and pretty short? This was before puberty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think the issue was way too much orange juice, hot pockets, sugary stuff, without knowing it. Also lots of barbecue sauce, ketchup etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyways, at the age of 11, I made a vow to change things. Our friend Spencer laughs in warm recollection of how I started putting rocks in my backpack, running around Bayside queens, trying to get fit. I asked my mom to buy me some weights, some dumbbells, and I still recall, her purchasing me 15 pound dumbbells, and eventually I got strong enough that I could stack 215 pound dumbbells on top of each other, and lift them as 30 pounds. Then later, Getting 50 pound dumbbells etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So one thing that a lot of people don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know about me, which even predates Tarpy, is my passion for a diet health fitness working out muscles etc. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve literally tried everything. High fat low-fat, high carb low-carb, intermittent fasting, 7 to 8 small meals a day, bodybuilding etc. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc More recently powerlifting, now it is tending more towards strongman style. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Realistic\u00e2\u20ac\u009d vs \u00e2\u20ac\u0153unrealistic\u00e2\u20ac\u009d body goals?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So this is a big differentiation between men and women; men want to get super jacked like the terminator, and look like the Incredible Hulk or orc, which is typically done by doing steroids, artificial testosterone injections and consumptions, etc. Women on the other hand seem to want to look slim, Have a big butt, big breast etc.; and a certain facial structure which is predicated on make up, plastic surgery and Botox, breast and butt augmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So this is the difference:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For women, the ideal body look and facial look is achieved through plastic surgery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For men, the ideal body look physique and composition is achieved through steroids<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Simple<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OK I have a super simple suggestion for both men and women;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. First, 100% carnivore diet both for men and women. Plants are for cows.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc a diet which is predominantly organ meat, grass fed meat, bone marrow etc. If you live in LA, just go to Gelson\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s and ask them to cut you some bone marrow in the back. Or if you just go to the local markets or organic markets, the often have frozen beef liver in the fridge or whatever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For men and women, liver might be one of the most nutritious food items on the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re just out and about with your kid and you see some organ meets at Whole Foods or wherever, just buy it and deal with it later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Being outside and physical fitness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So there are a lot of people who have therapist and mental things they want to deal with etc.; I was asking my friend Jeffrey about this, who is now a young therapist, studying to be a psychiatrist, and I asked him:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">as a therapist, are you allowed to prescribe exercise or physical activity for your patients?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc he said no. Because in America, we have a strange relationship with our bodies. On one hand, I think a lot of people desire to just become like a vessel, a brain in fishbowl. People are fools; they don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem to understand that the truth is I wonder if 99% of our \u00e2\u20ac\u0153mental illnesses\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, or actually physical in origin. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, being outside, direct access to the direct sun and UV radiation, I would rather get skin cancer than be miserable and be inside all day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Second, some sort of physical activity or exercise. This is both critical foreman and women. In ancient Sparta, I believe the girls trained as hard as the boys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also in ancient Sparta, they predicted correctly that one women were physically fit, they would get stronger children. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do you do CrossFit?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the best low-key compliments that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been getting from people is this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do you do CrossFit?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It seems that this compliment is mostly from women &#8212; which is a low-key way of saying \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I think you look good and sexy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, my personal pro tip is all of your clothes should be sleeveless. Just wear a tank top, and a sleeveless down vest on top, always show off your shoulders you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re trapped in your bare arms; let everybody know how jacked you are. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make yourself the object of fascination \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So this is another weird bias; it seems that modern-day society, we are not allowed or permitted to be into ourselves. There is this weird duty to become like somebody else?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, typically the choir says \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You must be like Jesus\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bcBut, we forget that Jesus was not a pushover. He went to the temple, the Jewish temple, saw all of the money changers inside the temple, and cattle, brought out a whip and whipped them all out and said \u00e2\u20ac\u0153how dare you do commerce inside my father\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcs house!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Let us also not forget that Jesus was Jewish. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, being here in Culver City, which is essentially the new Hollywood, you see a lot of people personalities and individuals who look like they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re in media. Attractive interesting looking people. But funny thing is that a lot of them are actually very short in real life. Even a lot of these rappers, Kanye West I think is only 5 foot seven, even Jeff Bezos is only 5 foot seven! also people don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know that Kim Kardashian is short; she might only be 5 feet tall?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the will to power? \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For myself, I have always believed that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153If you really want it, and you set your mind to it, you can get it.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example body goals. It is very very very very easy for all human beings to become more beautiful, by lowering your body fat percentage, even without exercise. The simple thing is this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Quit all sugars starches dairy cheese lactose, nuts, legumes, pasta rice etc. even the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153good ones\u00e2\u20ac\u0153.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quit all bread, fiber, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quit alcohol all of it, even red wine; new studies are showing that even two alcoholic beverages a week, even red wine can actually <em>increase<\/em> your chance of getting cancer \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quit smoking marijuana or taking CBD stuff<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00ef\u00bf\u00bcQuit fruit, vegetables etc. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So what do we eat instead?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Organ meats: beef hard, beef liver, beef kidney, also bone marrow. A super simple thing to do is when you have a bunch of bones, beef bones etc., just toss it into a pot or instant pot, add some water, boil it, and you could drink the broth!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eat lamb, beef, beef neck bone, red meat. The redder the better. Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t eat pork because pork is white meat, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t eat chicken or turkey and certainly no breast.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eat 100% grass fed beef, short ribs, ribs, beef neck bone, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>four \u00e2\u20ac\u0153vegetables\u00e2\u20ac\u0153, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t eat vegetables\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 Only dark leafy greens. This is colored greens, kale, anything bitter. <strong>Bitter is better<\/strong>. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Beverages?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beverages are simple: just drink water, tapwater, filtered water whatever, and black coffee, nothing added to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t drink milk, real or fake, it is all just sugar in disguise with a good conscience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exercise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The thing with exercise that it should not be some sort of weird moralistic duty. Rather, we should think of it like play, pure joy. <strong>Autotelic exercise<\/strong> means the exercise and you do stuff and you move around and lift weights for fun! \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, a very interesting thing that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve observed about Seneca is that he never stands still; he is always moving around! He stands, he sits, he crawls around on his knees, he squats. Also a very interesting thing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whenever Seneca wants to pick something up, he always squats all the way down, full sumo style squat, ass to grass, every single time. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And now that I think about it, because he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s playing with toys all day, he might do this, what&#8211; a 1000 times a day? \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Same thing goes with him picking up rocks and throwing around rocks! He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not rewarded for throwing rocks nor does he do it for \u00e2\u20ac\u0153exercise\u00e2\u20ac\u0153, in order to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153build muscle\u00e2\u20ac\u0153, or \u00e2\u20ac\u0153get fit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. Seneca throws rocks because it is fun, funny, and interesting to him! I wonder if it all is just like a physics experiment for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think this is also my passion for weightlifting, one rep max lifting, always increasing your personal records. To me it is just a physics exercise and experiment;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How far can we push the human body, how strong can we become, without the use of steroids?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">400 pound sandbags, and 2000 pound lifts \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was randomly on Google and YouTube, and I saw this thing like \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc on the history channel, history of the worlds strongest man something like that, and it was centered around the idea of seeing whether the strong men could lift 2000 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Essentially Brian Shaw, the strongest of them all, also it seems that he is the best of taking steroids, was the winner. Apparently the other guy who attempted the same, an older guy with knee reps, was he able to do it, but tweaked something in his upper shoulders? \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think one of the protest moments of my life was when I was able to successfully lift 1000 pounds, which I coined the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Atlas lift\u00e2\u20ac\u0153. And now that I think about it, seeing those other guys do it, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure if I kept my training up, I could eventually get to 1100 pounds, 1200 pounds, 1300 pounds, 1400 pounds, 1500 pounds and beyond. Maybe I cannot do 2000 pounds, because I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t take steroids, but still\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 It is all achievable without steroids. Also I do it all while fasting. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anything and everything is possible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another thing that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been doing quite religiously the last seven years or so is intermittent fasting, no breakfast no lunch, only one insanely big dinner a day. I aim for at least 4 to 6 pounds of meat for dinner every sitting. During the day, I just drink water and black coffee, and I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll wait until dinner time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To a lot of people that seems impossible, but obviously it is not. In the beginning obviously you get some hunger pangs, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bcbut, my solution is simple: \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to start intermittent fasting, the night before, eat 5 pounds of beef short rib, bone marrow, beef liver; the trifecta. I can guarantee you won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be hungry until dinner time the next day. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, almost want to become like a food diet fitness exercise advisor to some of my favorite heroes, Elon Musk, Kanye West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Elon musk looks terrible. I think he should start doing some sort of hot sauna, spend more time doing meetings outside in the sun, get into weightlifting, eating more organ meats, bone marrow etc. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m still convinced; bone marrow, which Achilles was raised on, is the most superior and supreme steroid of all time. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just do some research with Google and ChatGPT; the majority of the diet of Achilles as a young child was bone marrow, and organ meat; heart, bone marrow, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scientism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not trust any food diet health science from any of these skinny fat loser academic scientist types. First of all just look at them; they are all pale and sickly, no muscle mass whatever. They might be into running or at worst &#8212; rock climbing&#8211; which is bad because it is all indoors typically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This insidious idea that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153a calorie is a calorie\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, and the notion\u00e2\u20ac\u009d calories in, calories out.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let us do a thought experiment. Let us say that you lift weights every single day, and you had two options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consume 2000 cal of Twinkies versus 2000 cal of bone marrow and beef heart.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let us just think; at the end of it, who is going to look better? Who\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to get fat? Certainly the person eating Twinkies. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, another thought experiment; this one is in regards to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153protein\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, which I think is also a bit of a scam. If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re a bodybuilder weightlifter or whatever, and every day you eat 500 grams of protein via \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc P protein powder versus beef liver, who is going to get more jacked, whose testosterone is going to be higher? Of course the guy eating beef liver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Increasing your testosterone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Very very simple guys; and also women, the goal is to get your testosterone up. And the best food items to get your testosterone up is beef hard, beef liver, beef kidneys, bone marrow etc. The more cholesterol the food has, the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bcExperiment more with your diet, less with your technology?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OK now the new high watermark at least for mainstream devices is the Apple Vision Pro, $3499. Just think to yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How many packets of bone marrow, beef liver, beef hard, beef kidney etc. can this buy me? \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read ancient<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only thing I trust is ancient literature on things food health diet etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, the Iliad, the odyssey, etc. Why? This is before they had all of this nonsensical \u00e2\u20ac\u0153woke\u00e2\u20ac\u0153 or \u00e2\u20ac\u0153politically correct\u00e2\u20ac\u009d BS. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bcThe Greeks the ancient Greeks, were the highest men and humans of all time; no weak feelings, they delighted in cruelty and joy in humans, the human body. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make the body sexy and beautiful again<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest complaint or the biggest rebuttal against eating meat, being a carnivore etc. is that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153it is bad for the planet\u00e2\u20ac\u0153. This is a bunch of BS. What else is bad for the planet? Your Tesla, your Prius, your iPhone, your iPhone Pro, your AirPods, Amazon prime, through Netflix, etc. And also your dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, put zero trust or turn a deaf ear to anybody who invokes all this nonsensical thoughts on environmentalism; they are all fake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why do people buy Teslas?

Some things I recently ordered and got the mail, insanely fast, I think it literally came within a day or two, was the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153loadable farmer carry hack bar, farmer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s carry walk bar\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, easy loadable farmers carry handles, attachments for my T3 independent squat rack for dips and chin-ups, and also something I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m very excited for; a 60 pound weight vest, which I might just take with me on my daily walks, or even hiking, or when I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m hanging out with Seneca.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Give yourself a $1000 food speculation fund: load it up with bone marrow, organ meats, grass fed beef etc. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quit media: quit your Netflix, cancel it all. No Hulu, Apple TV, Apple TV+, Disney, Disney+, HBO, HBO Max etc. If you want to watch something, just buy it on the Apple store, Apple TV store, and just watch it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">other things<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other things and suggestions include spending more time being a nature! I think for anybody who is in a poor mood, assuming that the sun is out, go to the beach, go on a hike! Find some easy nature hike trails close to your place, you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t need to drive more than 20 or 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And also suggestion: turn off your phone, all the way off, and just keep it locked inside your glove compartment. Or if you take your phone with you, turn it off 100%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What else?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My secret to happiness is simple; 30,000 steps a day, and spend at least eight hours a day outside!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ERIC<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A CRITIQUE OF THE LOSER MENTALITY The bone I have to pick with modern day Society, is that the ideology is so loser oriented.
