Everything you hate me for, you love me for?

Interesting idea, the general idea is that our traits which are considered hateful, our in fact, our greatest virtues.

For example, I speak out loud, I don’t censor myself, I often make other people feel uncomfortable. Yet this is precisely the source of my innovation and entrepreneurial spirit .

Also this is where I think that the energies of children should simply be guided and directed, rather than stunted.

For example, let us say that your kid is very rambunctious and likes to throw stuff. Rather than forcing your kid not to throw things, rather think that it is better to channel that energy and power into something fun, like having him join the local (American) football league or whatever.

Or say that your kid runs around a lot, and likes to be active. Have them join gymnastics or something?

Also the same thing with adults, even the ancient Romans knew, everybody is born with different talents. And that rather than trying to change someone’s character, the wiser approach is figuring out how to best harness their own god-given skills. 

I always say the right thing at the wrong time

 for example, there should be certain things which should only be brought up at a certain time. Timing is critical.

For example, good idea to drink coffee first thing in the morning, bad idea to drink coffee at midnight.

We also, good idea to be active and run around in the day, maybe not a good idea at night.

The best time to watch Netflix is first thing in the morning

Funny I got from one of Cindy’s friends, is that she says that for her the best time to watch Netflix’s first thing in the morning because it gets her stimulated and wakes her up!

This is hilarious and a genius idea because the truth is, this might be the right strategy. Most people watch it late at night, which keeps you up because you’re going to be thinking about solving the plot while you sleep which is not good. Rather, if you watch media first thing in the morning, maybe it is actually a better stimulus and stimulant to action.

Also a funny thought, to those who like to watch erotic material, maybe rather than watching it before you sleep, also, you could do a funny experiment in which you watch it first thing in the morning?

Don’t castrate, channel

Let us say that you are hormonal, and have high testosterone. Yet this leads you to doing aggressive behavior in a bad way.

Rather than chop off your balls, maybe it’s better that you could simply get a gym membership, and start ERIC KIM demigod weightlifting, and strive to lift 1000 pounds? And beyond?

The crazier the more genius

“Name one genius that ain’t crazy!” – Kanye West

“In every single genius there is a hint of madness” – Aristotle 

Craziness and genius are sisters and brothers. Assuming that you sleep very well like each 12 hours a night, you don’t take drugs or drink alcohol, you exercise every day, you smile and wave and have friendly conversation with everybody you see on the streets, you spend a lot of time outside walking around, in nature and in the city etc., certainly you will not be crazy by traditional standards.

Then my thought is if you start to say certain words which are heretical, maybe the truth is, you’re right!

Stay crazy, stay foolish

As long as it doesn’t cause you to lose an arm or die prematurely, maybe rather than cutting risks from our life, we should strive instead to augment them. For example, one of my new favorite quotes from Peter Thiel, which has been quoted many times by Michael Saylor is that “Courage is in the shorter supply than genius”.

I agree. You can meet like at least 100,000 smart people or geniuses from the beer area. Yeah most of them like balls. Balls plus genius is what counts, no balls no conviction no appetite for risktaking means lame improvement to stuff.
