[Philosophy Sage @philosophysage]

These lessons are simple.

But living them? That's the hard part.

Most people spend decades avoiding these truths because accepting them requires uncomfortable change.

Don't be most people.

She literally explained how to create a frequency so strong it makes reality obey you.

She explains why you need to be EXTREME in order to be successful.

Pavel Durov: "I haven't had depression in 20 years, here's why":

"I normally never have depression. I don't remember having depression in the last 20 years, at least maybe when I was a teenager."

Pavel's approach to difficult emotions is completely counterintuitive.

As he puts it:

"I'm a human being like everybody else. I do get to experience emotions and some of them are not very pleasant. But I believe that it's the responsibility of every one of us to cope with these emotions and to learn to work through them."

On what creates depression:

"Self-discipline is particularly important because without it, how can you overcome this seemingly endless loop of negativity or despair that ultimately leads to depression for some people?"

His method:

"One of the reasons I don't have depression is I start doing things. I identify the problem, I can see a solution, and I start executing the strategy. If you are stuck in this loop of being worried about something, nothing's ever going to change."

The mistake people make:

"People often make this mistake thinking 'Oh, I should just have some rest and then regain energy.' This is not how it works. You gain energy by doing something. So you start doing something, then it happens. You feel motivated, you feel inspired, and then ultimately you do something else a little bit more."

He continues:

"The whole point is to do first and then feel, not feel and then do. Going to the gym is a good example. There are many days when you don't want to start working out. But you have to overcome this initial reluctance and then you get to a point that you enjoy it and you think 'Oh my god, it was such a good idea to come to gym today.'"

Action creates energy, not the other way around.

Unpopular opinion: luxury has nothing to do with money, yachts, 5-star hotels, or expensive dinners.

Real luxury is having time for yourself.

It’s being able to switch your phone off, take a long bath, read a book, go for a walk, and sleep eight hours without feeling guilty.

It’s living without the constant pressure to perform or keep up on social media.

I don’t care about dressing up just to go somewhere expensive and still feel drained. I care about feeling good. Being at peace. Sharing my time with people who matter. Finding joy in simple things like a homemade breakfast, a great movie without distractions, a book you can get lost in.

Real luxury is disconnecting from the noise.

It’s nature: the sea, the mountains, fresh air.

It’s slowing down enough to actually live.

That’s it, that’s real luxury.

Life is fucking electric bro. Don’t fall for the doomer shit. That’s for losers and normies scared of their own shadows. Walk around like God sent you and smile at everyone you see. Spread light and abundance. Build things and take chances. This is the best time in history!

It took me 5 years to figure out what truly works in trading and that statistically increases the probability of success.

Mistake after mistake and dollar after dollar.

Probably I already covered this topic, but in this post, I'll show you what in my opinion has to be studied more deeply to be one step ahead of the curve.
(alpha in here, believe me)

“Trading? Nah, I’m an investor I don't care”

Before starting, I want to tell you that I was one of the most aggressive “TA deniers” because I thought fundamentals were dictating the price.

After plenty of economic sacrifices, I can tell you that those are lies and once you start understanding technical analysis you also start to figure out that “fundamentals” play 20% of the game while 80% is purely on price action.

So whenever someone tells you: “TA doesn't work, it's astrology for men” that is because he believes in fairytales (like me in the past) and learned the wrong way.

“Wrong way?”

Most people are taught by 90% of “gurus” to utilize MACD, RSI, Stochastic and overall indicators as the primary methods to base their strategies.

How many times did you hear: “Bro, RSI is overbought..time to sell!” ?

Congrats, this is the easiest way to go extra rekt.

What most individuals don't comprehend, along with the functioning of indicators, is that the majority of them are lagging ones.

This means that they trail price movements providing signals AFTER a trend has already begun.

They don’t forecast the future, they “help” to sustain your main thesis, eventually.

Your thesis HAS to be originated by the study of the price action together with the fundamental connotation BEFORE using a single indicator.

Fun fact: you can watch the charts without applying indicators and be one step ahead of most “traders”.

The most profitable guys I know use naked charts.. food for thought, right?

Fix it in your head: there’s no indicator that acts as a passe partout for easy money and those who sell “magic” one are making themselves rich draining your pockets.

What I learned after these 7 years in this jungle, is that this is a game of liquidity played by whales(smart money) that clearly know the behavior of retails.

How they operate from both “technical” and psychological aspects..that’s why they win.

Do you think it's a coincidence, for example, that a specific news is being released at HTF levels?

It's not, because it exploits retail mentality to “justify” the nuke or the surge so retails keep buying or selling like puppets.

Each fundamental news you see “deployed”acts as a catalyst to generate profits independently of its impact on human lives, like in the case of a war, for example.

You think “The Matrix” isn't real but it is, and that's only when you accept that everything is controlled and manipulated that you start to see what others cannot see.

That's also why you notice me talking about “Sharingan”, the innate ability that very few can conquer.

“How can I develop a Sharingan, mate? What are the concepts to master?”

• Market structure (classic HH/HL + LH/LL)

• Support and resistance levels, but most specifically supply and demand zones (more relevant) + order blocks

• Fibonacci levels, which help you to individuate premium and discount areas

• Volume profile (LVN, HVN, VAL, VAH, POC)

• Auction Market Theory and then moving to Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Imbalances

• Closures above/below key areas

•Candles size (bodies for gauging strength of the move, wicks for gauging manipulation)

• Statistically effective reversal patterns (H&S/IH&S/Double Top|Bottom/Engulfing)

• Open interest | spot premium | funding

All of these concepts applied to HTFs, because their validity has a bigger “weight” than LTFs.

Is this the only way to chart? No.

Is this the only way to make money? Neither.

Is there a lot to study? Yes, and it's also a constant improvement.

But if you ask me, that's what opened my eyes and grew my Sharingan after YEARS of operating wrongly.

I was thinking about what thought I'd want to finish the year on, something worth compressing into a few paragraphs. So I just brain dumped 12 thoughts into this post instead.

1. Starting with rationale grounds you in reality from day one, giving you a filter to ignore nonsense instead of drowning in it.

2. The fastest path to a viable idea isn't through incremental improvements but through deliberate destruction.

3. Building better starts with breaking faster. The competitive advantage belongs to whoever can kill bad ideas before they drain resources.

4. Simple systems that break one at a time teach you something. Complex systems that break everywhere at once teach you nothing.

5. The features that repel most participants are precisely what creates opportunity for those willing to bear them.

6. Assumptions need to earn their place through testing, not through sounding plausible enough to deserve the benefit of the doubt.

7. Platforms built to maximize engagement will always reward impressive-looking activity over profitable-but-boring execution.

8. Humans hate uncertainty enough that they'll prefer confident wrong answers over probabilistic right ones.

9. Chasing alpha is a distraction. The money is made by systematically taking on risks that the market will pay you to absorb.

10. Your entry price means everything to you and nothing to the market.

11. Variance rewards bad decisions often enough to make them feel valid, while punishing good ones frequently enough to make you abandon them.

12. The sharper the mind, the more sophisticated the self-deception.

Suddenly, you’re 26.

Out of college now.

Got the new corporate job. Apartment in the city. Met a girl and it’s getting serious. Joined the pickleball league.

You’re happy. It’s everything you wanted, right?

The steady paycheck, your own crib, no more useless schoolwork.

But every morning lacks excitement. It’s already mundane.

40 more years of this…wake up, 9-5, gym, netflix, die?

But it’s everything that “younger you” had hoped for.

Or was it?

At 26, you feel different.

Feels like a blank canvas…on your own, no parents, no teachers, no responsibilities.

Your life is now solely based on your decisions. All on you, kid.

My advice is to play big…and play big right f*cking now.

Because next thing you know, you’re 45. In the same city, same job, same bars…thinking “if only I would’ve”.

So pick up the canvas and picasso that sh*t right now.

Do not tell people your goals.
Tell yourself. Then do them.
Do not betray yourself. This is where integrity begins. With yourself.

Honor your own word.
Results. Do the work.
Nobody will believe you anyway. Don’t waste time creating doubters.

Be silent.

Death is not the worst of evils.

Your surrender to slavery is.

Do not be a slave.

Serve God, and live well as a divine warrior who owns his life, his future, his fate.

Try it.

You have something to lose by trying?

That isn't already being torn from you and your children?

Let it all work out

[Augustus @AugustusDelano]

Start looking at anxiety as an opportunity to place your trust in God. When you feel your heart drop, gut wrench, and mind race, use that moment to practice faith. Find internal peace from some place higher. Strengthen that muscle, and as always, act accordingly
