What's your end game?

my point is that people pick their challenges for the wrong reasons. if you told me you want to make a billion for the heck of it, you can go for that. but it seems so fuckin weird that people want a body to impress women and money to impress women and cars to impress women and its always shit because they want some other shit.

the angle pisses me off. its like with that lifting bs. people dont do it because tehy want to be healthy. they want it so they can walk into some club which already is the most fake environment the world has yet to provide to show off not even their body but the impression that they could beat someone else up. its so sad. that alpha crap is the saddest shit ive ever heard. i dont mean sad in that sarcastic way. its really sad. it makes me sad to see people longing for stuff that wont even make them happy.

just live life. trying to angleshoot the shit out of it is so pointless. if you need a big house to feel good about yourself, youll need the money, but ive rarely seen a person get that big house and then be content. its always some other crap because its not about the house. its about the perceived pussy it will bring you. or fame or some shit.

its always means to some end. always concealed. never honest. just cut the means and find your end. if you want to have a dozen different pussies dancing around you, be open about it. it will happen. shits not as difficult as you make it out to be. but quit fucking around with your money illusions. money doesnt make you happy. money makes money appear on your bank statements.

money doesnt even make kevin oleary happy. that guy is a mangled less. look into his fuckin face. he couldnt crack a smile if his life depended on it. he looks like some troll. cant even make eye contact. maybe in some condescending way with those idiots who appear on the show but not with real people. and thats all because hes too busy lying about everything. especially his intentions. if that guy didnt have the money, not a single fuckin soul would want to talk to him.


and its sad to see people who think they are so clever about government let the media pull the exact same shit on them.

and if wanted to rhetoric device you, you wouldnt notice.
 


neither do i have a problem with people wanting to succeed in "business". but you might want to try running a business then. dont tell me fucking people over from behind your computer screen for a living is your god given destiny that you feel a need to pursue. thats just bullshit.

and quit feeling alpha about it. alpha is just marketing so good you thought its not marketing. you got fooled. let it out. its ok.
 
So you're insecure with being fat, non-muscular, non-social, not having a nice car, body, or home and shit to put in it, and being uncomfortable going to a club or gym, not knowing much about how the government functions, being marketed to and deceived, not being alpha, not running a business, not having a good shot at retirement, and not succeeding at internet marketing.

Anything else you'd like to let us know today?

Why the fuck is everyone talking about retiring anyway? Do you hate IM as much as others hate their jobs that you want to retire?

I don't understand this whole passive income goal thing either. For me life is about setting goals and working for them, and maybe reaching them maybe not, but having fun while I'm doing it. The only time I ever give up on goals is if I can obviously see that I lack enough natural talent at something for the effort not to be worth it. Otherwise, repetition after repetition you work for your goals.

Who the fuck wants to sit around on a couch all day because you have PASSIVE INCOME. omg, so instead of sitting on a couch on benefits and food stamps you sit on a couch by a swimming pool and get $50k a month? But is it that different. You are still a lazy fuck. You are doing fuck all with your talent and skill.

To me there isn't an endgame, it's about seeing how far I can go and testing myself, and keeping life interesting. That's what the billionaire thing is about. Can I do it? Can I develop myself to a level where tens of thousands of people depend on me? Can I sell to a million people? etc etc...

If you are still working for some utopia in your mind where you won't have to work, think again. Most men become depressed when they retire. Their life has lost it's purpose. But it's a dream that is sold to you because it sounds nice and keeps you in the rat race. But it's not.

Challenge yourself!

Maybe I want to spend my free time reading and writing poetry? Making video games? Drawing comics? Making and performing music? Volunteering at the animal shelter? Traveling? Coning? Spending time with my children?

There's a lot of things you can do with your time besides A) NOTHING B) WORKING.

The world is not as black & white as you guys make it out to be with your false dichotomies.

Impermanence is the nature of all the unreal. If you haven't noticed yet, nothing lasts. Everything gets devoured by time. No object lasts. No emotion lasts. No mood, experience, thought lasts.

Do understand that you cannot find permanent freedom based on impermanent phenomenon. Sure one can "build an empire". However, that too will crash and burn as all else. So do not get too attached to objects, people, FAMILY, experiences or even a particular way of looking at things. All will refreshed by new in time. And this is great. All our suffering, feeling of insecurity, unease and restlessness comes from this. We know that shit is not permanent, but we want to make it last somehow. So the struggle continues.

The sages and saints, yogi and mystics, Buddhas and the wise ones from all over the world, from all religions and traditions have pointed out that: it is possible to go beyond this endless cycle of suffering, cycle of pleasure and pain, of desire and fear. It has been referred in different traditions by different names: Enlightenment, Self-Realization, Liberation, etc.

How can this Enlightenment thing bring about lasting satisfaction and peace of mind? Only through perfect understanding of your timeless nature. That nature is also free of limits, free of any quality, free of likes and dislikes, free of size, shape, color. Basically free of any bias.

So do not set your standards too low. You want the best for yourself. Do not settle for anything less than infinity.

I like money to spend. I don't like working all that much. I like building sites that earn money while I sleep. How about this? If you build passive income, then you'll have time to go get a job if you like.

Couch? People who have money don't hang out on couches all that much. They golf and travel.

If I spend a lot of time on the couch, I'm banging away at a laptop. Situation not good, but still better than looking for a job.

As soon as I accepted everything was meaningless, I started creating my own meaning and THEN some other very interesting things started to slip out from behind the veil, and surprise, turns out nihilism wasn't right after all. Paradox.

I'm rambling and have no ultimate point. I think my point is is that reductionist, nihilistic, naivety annoys me, and i hate how it wants to spread like a plague so misery will have company.
