Looks like some of my beliefs have to shift

[Jake Castillo @jakecastilloooo]

Things I believed in late 2024, when I quit a $150k job to work on Cal AI for $0/month:

> The product had to be great before marketing could work
> Signing a big creator would be the moment it turned
> Being early to a niche mattered more than being loud in it
> If I just worked hard enough the imposter feeling would go away

What was actually true:

> Distribution came first and the product got better because distribution forced it to
> No single creator turned anything. Volume did.
> Being loud beat being early, every time
> The feeling never went away. It didn't go away at #1, it didn't go away at $30M ARR, and it got worse after the acquisition.

I was wrong about all four and it still worked, because the one thing I got right was showing up to the boring list every day.

You can be wrong about a lot if you're consistent about the right one thing.

Wise words

[Mark Minervini @markminervini]

I've been a stock trader for 43 years. Based on my experience, the market will never outsmart me and take my capital during bear markets or sky rocket without me onbosrd for the ride during bull markets. That sounds very arrogant, doesn't it. But wait until you hear the reason why.
Because I never try to outsmart the market.
What i have learned is humility. The market is always right. And if I am yielding to its message, I can never be outsmarted by the very force I am respecting and staying in gear with.
There's a fortune in this one paragraph.

Routine to Drop 20-30 Pounds on Autopilot:

- No Snacking
- Lift 2-3x/week
- Protein-forward breakfast
- Dinner 3-5 hrs before bed
- Walk 7-10k steps (use a walking pad)

Do this consistently and fat loss becomes inevitable.

Good perspective

Sentiments of Venezuelans

I’m going to say this once, and I don’t care if it makes people uncomfortable.

If you have never lived in Venezuela
If you did not grow up there
If you did not watch your country collapse in real time
If you did not stand in food lines
If you did not watch your parents lose everything they built
If you did not have to leave your home with nothing

Then shut the fuck up.

You do not have an opinion.
Your opinion does not matter.
And you don’t get to lecture anyone about what’s happening there.

I’m Venezuelan.
I lived there most of my life until my early twenties.
I watched my country go from a functioning democracy to full blown socialism right in front of my eyes.

This is not politics to me.
This is trauma.

Before socialism, Venezuela was not perfect, but it worked.
There was trade.
There was money coming in.
There was investment from the US.
There were jobs.
There was food.
There was medicine.

My family had five businesses.
We had our home
We had investments.
We had a future.

Then the government started nationalizing everything.
Private companies were taken.
Foreign investors were pushed out.
Imports were blocked.
Price controls destroyed production.
Corruption exploded.

And everything died.

Not slowly.
Violently.

People didn’t suddenly become poor because of “capitalism” or “the US” or whatever bullshit slogan people like to repeat online.

They became poor because socialism destroyed incentives, destroyed production, destroyed trust, and destroyed hope.

People today in Venezuela are not debating ideology.
They are trying to survive.

They are trying to find food.
Trying to find medication.
Trying to keep their families alive.

So when I see people in the West posting from comfortable homes, full fridges, stable currencies, and safe streets talking about “imperialism” or “US bad” or “Trump this or that”

No.
It’s not complicated.
You’re just ignorant.

China is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Russia is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Cartels are not rebuilding Venezuela.

They are stealing.
They are extracting.
They are draining what’s left.

If the US comes in and reinvests
If refineries get rebuilt
If infrastructure gets restored
If imports open back up
If food, water, and medicine become accessible again
If people can work and earn with dignity

Then yes.
Let them take all the oil they want.

Because at least something gets built instead of destroyed.

This is something to celebrate.
Not because it’s perfect.
But because for the first time in a long time, there is hope.

Hope that families can eat.
Hope that people don’t have to flee their country.
Hope that Venezuela can function again.

If you’ve never lived through a country collapsing
If you’ve never watched socialism destroy everything around you
If you’ve never had to leave your home because staying meant starvation

Then again
Shut the fuck up.

This isn’t theory.
This isn’t politics.
This is lived experience.

🔥BREAKING: The secret to living to 100+? HIGH CHOLESTEROL!

A massive Swedish study tracking over 800,000 people for 35 years just revealed: Every single centenarian had HIGH total cholesterol. The higher your LDL, the longer you live.

Mind blown yet? Dr. Ben Bikman exposes the lies about cholesterol being "bad."

Key findings from the Sweden AMORIS study:
- All centenarians: High total cholesterol, high iron, low glucose.
- Highest LDL-C = longest lifespans (backed by Dr. Uffe Ravnskov & Dr. Malcolm Kendrick).

Dangers of low cholesterol:
- LDL <70 mg/dL → 3X higher risk of brain-bleeding strokes.
- Total <180 mg/dL → Skyrocketing cancer & dementia rates.
- <150 mg/dL → Increased chronic diseases like cancer & autoimmunity.
- Statins? They don't extend life—damage mitochondria & hormones instead.

Why your body CRAVES cholesterol:
- Builds every cell & powerhouse mitochondria.
- Absorbs vital vitamins A, D, E, K.
- Powers digestion via bile acids.
- Supercharges immunity against infections, viruses, bacteria, pathogens—even cancer.
- Fights depression, suicide, dementia & cognitive decline.
- Shields from toxins, heavy metals, strokes, heart disease & osteoporosis.
- Fuels ALL steroid hormones (low chol = low testosterone & libido).
- Lowers all-cause mortality risk.

Pro tip: Go low-carb, load up on nutrient-dense animal foods. Grass fed beef, pastured eggs, wild caught seafood...Dump seed oils, sugar & processed garbage. Target TG/HDL ratio <1.5 for elite heart health.

Tight budget like me?? Seek out a local farmer, butcher & farm market & make a 'bulk large sale deal' for beef at $5/lb & eggs $4/Dz

Are you ditching your statin yet? Tell me in the comments, I read every reply & do my best to respond to every question! If I miss your question...PLEASE DM direct message me! I truly care about you & your health!👇🔥

Every year, Grandma insisted on hanging the last ornament herself.

It was a small, cracked glass bell. Nothing fancy.

One Christmas, she didn’t make it to the tree.

The family argued over who would hang it. Old wounds resurfaced. Old resentments came back like ghosts in tinsel.

Finally, the youngest grandchild climbed the chair and placed the bell near the top.

Inside it was a folded note no one had ever seen.

It read:

“When I’m gone, don’t fight over me. Love louder. Forgive faster. I’ll be right here.”

That year, the tree felt fuller than it ever had.

Every family has certain pain & scars that seem impossible to cure. And they just may be but we can still do our best to love.

God knows, most people are not lacking another iPhone, a car or jewelry.

Nothing is more valuable than sharing LOVE with others. You may be the ONLY one that did this Christmas for that one person who is starving of LOVE.

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” Matthew 5:9

We and the @PershingSqFdn are going to set up a reward system for heroes. As a society, we don’t do enough to take care of the heroes in our communities. We would like to address this failure and do so systematically.

I will report back once we are up and running.

NEW: NYPD detective saves the life of a choking baby on his way to work in rush hour traffic.

Detective First Grade Michael Greaney was in traffic when he saw a black SUV speeding in the emergency shoulder lane.

Greaney turned on the lights of his unmarked car and pulled over the BMW to see what was going on.

"My baby’s choking," the panicked father said.

Greaney jumped into action, pulling the child out of the car and hitting the baby girl on the back, clearing her throat and allowing her to breathe again.

Greaney has worked for the NYPD for 17 years. The baby is doing well, according to the father, who spoke with the New York Post.

Hero!

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

"My name's Raymond. I'm 73. I work the parking lot at St. Joseph's Hospital. Minimum wage, orange vest, a whistle I barely use. Most people don't even look at me. I'm just the old man waving cars into spaces.
But I see everything.

Like the black sedan that circled the lot every morning at 6 a.m. for three weeks. Young man driving, grandmother in the passenger seat. Chemotherapy, I figured. He'd drop her at the entrance, then spend 20 minutes hunting for parking, missing her appointments.

One morning, I stopped him. "What time tomorrow?"
"6:15," he said, confused.
"Space A-7 will be empty. I'll save it."
He blinked. "You... you can do that?"
"I can now," I said.

Next morning, I stood in A-7, holding my ground as cars circled angrily. When his sedan pulled up, I moved. He rolled down his window, speechless. "Why?"
"Because she needs you in there with her," I said. "Not out here stressing."
He cried. Right there in the parking lot.

Word spread quietly. A father with a sick baby asked if I could help. A woman visiting her dying husband. I started arriving at 5 a.m., notebook in hand, tracking who needed what. Saved spots became sacred. People stopped honking. They waited. Because they knew someone else was fighting something bigger than traffic.
But here's what changed everything, A businessman in a Mercedes screamed at me one morning. "I'm not sick! I need that spot for a meeting!"

"Then walk," I said calmly. "That space is for someone whose hands are shaking too hard to grip a steering wheel."

He sped off, furious. But a woman behind him got out of her car and hugged me. "My son has leukemia," she sobbed. "Thank you for seeing us."

The hospital tried to stop me. "Liability issues," they said. But then families started writing letters. Dozens. "Raymond made the worst days bearable." "He gave us one less thing to break over."

Last month, they made it official. "Reserved Parking for Families in Crisis." Ten spots, marked with blue signs. And they asked me to manage it.

But the best part? A man I'd helped two years ago, his mother survived, came back. He's a carpenter. Built a small wooden box, mounted it by the reserved spaces. Inside? Prayer cards, tissues, breath mints, and a note,

"Take what you need. You're not alone. -Raymond & Friends"
People leave things now. Granola bars. Phone chargers. Yesterday, someone left a hand-knitted blanket.
I'm 73. I direct traffic in a hospital parking lot. But I've learned this: Healing doesn't just happen in operating rooms. Sometimes it starts in a parking space. When someone says, "I see your crisis. Let me carry this one small piece."

So pay attention. At the grocery checkout, the coffee line, wherever you are. Someone's drowning in the little things while fighting the big ones.

Hold a door. Save a spot. Carry the weight no one else sees.
It's not glamorous. But it's everything."

Let this story reach more hearts....
