Weakness = not accepted
(long post)
To truly progress a bit in life, step one is always looking inside to know yourself and eventually transcend your sense of self.
Step two is learning to observe humanity and this world and not just accepting everything other humans do
Sometimes people are surprised i am a hardcore libertarian, but at the same time deep into meditation, inner work, gardening, etc, while also doing finance, crypto, and many other things.
Why? Because i am interested in knowing what really works...no bullsh*t...in any field of study or in any aspect of life. I am a student of the whole of human existence, and an open mind is crucial for that.
I have been to the sour armpit smelling hippy farms, and it was nothing but a disaster, while i also saw amazing people building forest gardens with enormous success working with nature
Some people lost it all in crypto, but i saw people that could make it, so that can be possible for anyone. I saw rich people deeply miserable, so money is not the solution, but i also saw very rich people live humble and content lives....so i knew it was possible to not let money control one
So obvious communism and left wing socialism is horrible for the economic progress of a country. Might be easy to redistribute all, but if entrepreneurs do not build wealth, there is nothing to re-distribute. On top, history is full of example of what too powerful bureaucratic states do to their populations, nothing but misery. Just look at the facts and the conclusion is socialism never works...period.
Eco-farming is clearly better than industrial farming, for the animals, and oneยดs health, but that is not an excuse to wage a war on normal farmers that still produce a lot of our food or to encourage everyone to eat disgusting soy, or promote other crazy unhealthy habits.
Same with alternative methods of healing, energy-healers, reiki-masters, yoga-teachers, and so many others. Millions are fakes, but there are so many fakes because they took inspiration from real masters. The trick is to find them, and for that you have to visit many and use your bullsh*t detector radar and move one when you meet a fake.
It is not about being left-wing, or right-wing in life. What matters is what works. What truly works and can improve our existence. The only way to really find that out is to look inside, and learn to observe humanity well, then you can take the best of all worlds, and ignore all the dogma and bullsh*t so prevalent everywhere
Most importantly, weakness is not accepted. You want to be some weak cry-baby that canยดt take some pain to progress in life or take another path.....forget it...you will never make it. I know it is tempting to be depressed, miserable, complain about everything, i have been there for years myself, but at one point one has to say f**k it, i still have a body and mind, i am still conscious, i am going to figure this out no matter what...period.
Look in the mirror and take yourself seriously, and also take your existence in this world seriously and actually do something real that works through observing what actually works. And make the following promise to yourself: ยจi will not be some weak miserable human being, i will progress and move forward no matter the hardship and succeedยจ
