@AlexOnCharts I agree, currently it’s very hard to determine any short-term play. Also, the fact that it’s Friday probably isn’t the best time for expansion, as we may just form a range that could possibly get manipulated next week before any significant move. Enjoy the weekend, man.🤝
All men face the same trade-offs. There’s no man who doesn’t get sick to his stomach amidst chaos and danger. Nor is there a man who doesn’t get bored and depressed having a quiet family life.
It’s all about where the ball settles. U just escape what u hate the most.
The hard mode is a game for losers. A game u play to lose.
Most of actual skill is not in beating the hard mode, but in going just as far without ever entering it at all.
Ironically the guy who’s not looking for validation & attention garners all of it. He’s so in it he doesn’t have bandwidth to take his eyes off the ball. Cuz he understands the pitfall of doing so, u can’t hone out for a single second, the higher you climb, the dire the consequences of being lackadaisical. You backslide & loose so many progress. Staying consistent is the bare minimum, you have to be obsessed. You lucid dream about your craft, every single moment of your waking minutes. This also explains why people whose eyes are not in tunnel vision, they just keep spinning their wheels going no where. The horse metaphor is the perfect example for this, horses need blinders to blind the peripheral vision so it can run on the track. Bingo.
When times are bad u don’t do more, u do less. U pull back. U go through the motions.
Like when trapped, or drowning, or approached by a shark, or on losing streak gambling. U rest easy.
U let things get better themselves. And as they slowly do u pick the pace back up.
If you take ANY brain dead strategy that can possibly make $
And fire ruthlessly and relentlessly at it
& train yourself to have amnesia @ all the losses
U are guaranteed to look like a genius eventually
Other dudes still in the library looking for “smart” answers
Poor behavior is the best retention of women. You’d think loving them makes them most devoted, but its continuous cycle of hurt with breaks inbetween for love bombing (good sex) that does it. Missed calls, ignored texts but a great Valentines Day, is what makes them coming back..
There’s no chance in hell “experiences” are worth more than money anyone who says their trip to Spain was better than the 20k they stacked up by not going usually makes their dough in a square way so ya of course your trip was awesome you got to pretend you were someone else for 2 weeks in San Sebastián cuz you got a break from your boss pegging your ass you fucking nerd but if you make money in unconventional ways a stroll to the coffee shop feels like the ocean breeze is caressing your handsome face
i had a mentor once. not some guru mf. a legit psychopath who’d built and lost two empires by 40.
i asked him for the secret to winning...
he just looked at me with dead eyes, the kind of eyes that have seen real fucking war, and said:
"i hope you fail. i hope you lose it all. i hope you feel the terror of it so deep in your bones it feels like a disease. only then will you develop a disgust for losing so profound, so pathological, that you'll never let it happen again."
the desire to win is for goons playing a game.
the pathological HATRED of losing is what builds kingdoms.
listen to more killers and you'll become one
love getting to talk to people & finding out what makes them tick. for some the grades at school is the frontier, for some they're pissed cuz they failed their daily minimum lift number, for some not being able to catch a fish for the day ruins their mood.
set your sights higher
Should be so invested in what ur doing that even when ur crashing out ur doing it in a way where it is prepping u to launch urself even harder once ur back
What’s degen for me is just how most ppl live everyday considering it normal
Strict measures for sharp edge
