If you think you're going to get laid off, this is what you do. Let it happen. If you want, you can even be kind of empowered by it as a treat. Then do two things concurrently. Start posting, and start trading. At worst, you will be good at one. At best, both. But never neither
Unemployed: I lack valuable skills
Unemployable: I possess valuable skills that would make me an undeniable asset at a variety of places, but I am unwilling to entertain an employment opportunity unless the team not only allows, but actively encourages me to continue pursuing spontaneous side quests, capitalizing on asymmetric bets, and authentically expressing my true self online; and if such an opportunity were to serendipitously present itself and also align with my core interests, financial goals, and lifestyle preferences, only then would I be openminded to exploring a conversation accordingly
When I lost a shit load of money a few years ago, the funniest realization I made was that I hypothetically could've been hyper irresponsible with my spending and still would've survived anyway
Me waking up to a black swan and needing to make it all back would've been no different than me hedonistically buying every random thing I wanted and needing to make it all back. Would've eventually ended up fine either way, which is having all of my basic needs met
Of course it's ill advised to do the latter but these random L's really showed me that it's ok to relax. Playing it safe in life doesn't make you any less exposed to risk than if you were to live recklessly, you're just exposed to different types of risk. Life itself is risk
Make decisions to the best of your ability and surrender to the outcome. Don't worry so much about trying to control everything or whether you're doing things "right" or "wrong." Whatever happens, however it happens, you will recover from it. Save a little more, spend a little more, all good. Less seriousness. More flow. You will be fine if you keep going
A lot of you guys are in a rut because you've forgotten how cool you are. You've fallen into too serious of a routine that stopped giving you opportunities to feel yourself
Ease up on the rigidity for one night and go to that place that isn't your desk. Make some people laugh. Remind yourself that you're still witty with it. Do that thing where you used to put someone onto one of your playlists. Make yourself seen so you can get complimented on your fit like before
Come back home with a stupid grin. Wake up feeling like yourself again. You've still got it
it's insane that you can just decide to retardmaxx.
you can just say fuck all of it, retardmaxx it.
and then never overthink again.
never hesitate again.
never be scared again.
never be "realistic" again.
never put limits on yourself again.
and all it takes is one click.
retardmaxxing improved my life MASSIVELY.
and I haven't even mastered it yet.
RETARDMAXX.
being unemployed is the only way to ascend.
the number of books you have to read,
the amount of mental chasms you have to cross,
the massive amount of wealth you have to accrue,
can ONLY be done with an entirely empty calendar every day.
normies using phrases like
"touch grass" "breaking news for the unemployed" etc.
are just projections of their desire to drag outliers (like you)
back into the grey masses of NPCs.
quit your job right now. fuck a safety net.
your highest aim in life is to be unemployed.
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!
