I dont know if this reaches "right" ladies or gents, but I guess, this definitely isn’t for everyone.
I suspect a lot of you folks on here are like me. If you’re big on planning, thinking long-term, and overanalyzing things, then read on.

I’m not 100% sure this is the answer I’m looking for, but I’m trying.

With that being said, I’ve been going through a rough patch for the last few months. Dealing with depression (for lack of a better word) on and off. I know, I seem like the unlikeliest person to get depressed, but it’s true. I started to feel like all my long-term dreams are useless. The version of me who’s confident, happy, doing well, and living freely began to feel like a fantasy.
But it can’t be — because I know it can be done.

So I started asking why.
And an idea began to form: maybe it’s the way I’m looking at things. The facts of my life are great — I’m healthy, my body is improving, my work is solid, I’m making good money, and my friends are doing well too.

Yet I’m not happy.

Maybe I’ve started seeing life through fogged-up glass — everything dull, nothing vivid.
Is it that I’m afraid to live? Am I always preparing to live instead of actually living? And is that preparation slowly killing me?

After thinking more, I realized something: a friend of mine, Vedant, takes the same courses as I do. While I take tons of notes, he barely does — and he’s much happier.

He’s living. I’m preparing to live.
He just flew to Dubai for fun, while my subconscious reaction was, “Not now, not ready to enjoy it yet.”

It makes sense now: I’ve been treating everything — my courses, the gym, eating healthy — as preparation for life. But the truth is, I’m more than ready to live. I don’t need to be some perfect hybrid of David Goggins + Wim Hof + a millionaire to start.

I can start now.

I feel like the main difference is a law of vibration thing: If you’re always preparing, the message you are perpetuating is that there is always a need to prepare. That you are never ready to go.
So you won’t actually learn to accommodate this reality. You won’t be ready, ever.

So here’s what I’m doing about it:

Stop taking so many notes. I don’t need to turn every 1-hour video into 2 hours of note-taking. My brain can grasp what matters.

Stop seeing self-development as a prerequisite to living. I’m competent in so many ways already. I don’t need more to start.

I have permission to start living now. Everything I’m doing — the learning, the training, the growth — is not preparation for life. It is life.

I would like to request @SahilBloom @warikoo @AlexHormozi @danmartell @HealthyGamerGG, and others to please share your views.

@celestialbe1ng The surgery isn't your biggest problem.

Congruency is.

It's just that "my diet made me look younger than my age" and "my surgeon put everything back where it biologically should have been" are not quite the same marketing campaign.

Your collagen feels a bit underappreciated.

Plastic surgery arc.

I never wanted to be anything other than completely transparent with u guys.

Did I look good before? Yes. Did I also gain and lose 40kg over and over again during my ED years to the point it sagged my tissues? Also yes.

My surgeon is extremely conservative. He basically said: “you’ll just look like yourself had that constant weight fluctuation never happened. We’re simply putting the tissue back where it biologically would have been.”

Worth it? 100% yes. Easy? Absolutely not.

I’m still recovering. Still swollen like crazy most days. Necessary? Probably not. I was just deeply curious what I would have looked like had I not put my body through hell for a decade.

But that’s also why I started this account in the first place.

Ageing NEVER is metabolism first. Bioenergetics first. Foundation first.

Smart tweakments only if you feel like it once the foundation is there. Otherwise none of it works properly anyway.

Love him or hate him, Elon Musk has done more to push humanity forward in the last 20 years than most politicians do in an entire career.

Trillionaire Musk > Trillion-dollar Congress.

NVIDIA is worth more than India.

Not Reliance.
Not Tata.
Not the entire startup ecosystem.
Not the entire Indian stock market.

But India

The AI race isn't waiting for anyone.

@readswithravi This is great advice.

What worked for me was identifying the root cause of my mood swings.
You can't rely on willpower to push through a bad mood every single day.
Start with a time period you can realistically control, then gradually increase it as your discipline grows.
