I wish someone had explained this to me 20 years ago. It would’ve changed everything.
Robert Greene explained why you’re lazy, you don’t lack discipline. You lack urgency.
This 1-minute clip might change how you approach your entire life.
That's what you came to observe.
Your perception of what's normal is heavily influenced by the environments you spend your time in.
Stay in the same few rooms long enough, and your expectations can quietly become limited by what those rooms expose you to.
Sometimes, changing the room can change the ceiling you imagine for yourself.
Real talk
If you’re on the wrong side during a big move like this, most of your immediate impulses are gonna suck
Greatest hits:
1. Revenge short - Can’t believe I missed this piece of shit scam pumping; it’s up so much it HAS to come down
2. Oversized buy - I will use leverage as a time travel machine to make up for being late
3. TA cope - It has to retest the exact level it broke out from immediately because I watched two whole Babypips videos on 1.5x speed
4. All-or-nothing - My only options are 0%. exposure or 100%, nothing in between exists
5. Deer in headlights - oh geez I guess I should wait for a pullback but no what if the consolidation is the pullback hmm maybe I’ll wait for a range to form but what if that range breaks down do I buy the retest of the breakout or the range reclaim oh man fuck shit what’s Ansem saying
6. Overtrader - I will cement my bloodline on the 5 minute chart; if this next candle is the wrong colour I will either be rich or poor
Just chill out, delete your levels, pretend you haven’t looked at the chart in weeks - fresh eyes
Then it’s the usual list of simple questions:
1. What signals are firing / what do I think is gonna happen
2. What kind of bet am I making (mean reversion/volatility expansion/new trend/momentum/Blackrock scam etc.) and on what time horizon
3. Where am I wrong
4. Does my position size match the current volatility and align with the shape of my trade idea i.e. points 1-3
FWIW I’m washed but gonna try to jam some spot sub 70k. If it gets accepted below 66-67k (retraces the breakout) then I’ll lose money
“Wow it’s up so much what you buy the top?”
Then I’ll lose money and look silly on social media. That’s the cost of doing business (at least the first one).
Just start LARPing like everyone else and instead of saying “I bought the top” say “I aggressively rebalanced when an ensemble of carefully weighed momentum factor signals fired contemporaneously.”
A reminder from The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson:
“Happiness comes from solving problems. The keyword here is "solving." If you're avoiding your problems or feel like you don't have any problems, then you're going to make yourself miserable. If you feel like you have problems that you can't solve, you will likewise make yourself miserable. The secret sauce is in the solving of the problems, not in not having problems in the first place. To be happy we need something to solve. Happiness is therefore a form of action; it's an activity.”
1/6. Иллюзия комфорта: как культ личных эмоций приводит пары к разрыву.
Так случилось что последнюю неделю коллеги в разных соц сетях активно обсуждают парную (иногда семейную) терапию, и так или иначе затрагивают тему развала брака.
Мифы оставим развенчивателям мифов, а сегодня хотелось бы поговорить о той части, что действительно может приводить пары к разрыву — иллюзии комфорта.
Наиболее наглядно мысль выразил коллега на скриншоте ниже. Я не столь категоричен, но понимаю почему это так хорошо звучит. Я веду парную терапию и сталкиваюсь с похожими ситуациями регулярно.
Эта короткая и хлёсткая мысль звучит как вызов современной поп-психологии, которая последние десять лет транслирует из каждого утюга мантры: «выбирай себя», «если тебе некомфортно — уходи», «слушай только свои чувства». Мы в эпохе, где личный эмоциональный комфорт возведен в абсолют и стал главным мерилом качества жизни. Вот только когда этот конструкт переносится на территорию парных отношений, он превращается в мину замедленного действия.
Далее тред.
Si te sientes perdido, bloqueado, estancado o paralizado mientras la vida pasa delante de ti, voy a darte un tip en 6 pasos que a mí siempre me ha funcionado para ordenar tu vida y ubicarte. Además es sencillo de hacer:
P. gingivalis was detected in 90.9% of heart attack patients in a clinical study.
The same bacteria destroying your gum tissue is living in your arteries.
Gums bleeding when you brush? Bad breath nothing fixes? Dentist calling it “just gingivitis”?
P. gingivalis enters your bloodstream through bleeding gums every time you brush. It embeds in arterial walls, triggers chronic inflammation, and accelerates the plaques causing heart attacks. Your cardiologist treats the arteries. Nobody treats the bacteria that got there.
Study data:
→ 90.9% of heart attack patients carry it
→ Found directly in 39.3% of coronary plaques
→ Heart attack risk: +34%
The mechanism: P. gingivalis enters bloodstream → embeds in arterial walls → triggers inflammation → plaque formation accelerates → arterial blockage → heart attack
Gums bled every time I brushed for 3 years. Nobody connected it to cardiovascular risk. Mastic gum 1g daily. Week 3: bleeding stopped. Month 2: inflammation markers normalized.
1g daily. 8 weeks. Bacteria eliminated. Arteries protected.
Your cardiologist treats your arteries.
Nobody is treating the bacteria destroying them.
if i had zero skills and needed to make $12k-$15k/m in 2026, i'd ignore this BS and just learn how to use AI and sell digital products
this n8n automation shit is good if you want to make $2k/month being someone's technical bitch
but if you actually want $12k-$15k/month you need LEVERAGE not coding skills
here's what i'd actually do with zero skills in 2026
step 1: pick a niche that already spends money on education
not "find your passion" or "what interests you"
find people who are ALREADY buying courses, coaching, tools
prediction market degens, ecom store owners, agency owners, fitness coaches, real estate agents
these people have money and problems
that's all you need
step 2: learn their language by consuming their content for 48 hours
spend 2 days reading their tweets, watching their youtube videos, joining their discords
figure out what they complain about, what results they want, what objections they have
you don't need to be an expert bro you just need to understand their pain better than they do
step 3: use AI to build a $2k-$5k info product in 72 hours
prompt claude or chatgpt to create course curriculum around their specific transformation
"build a course that transforms struggling ecom owners from $5k/month to $20k/month in 90 days"
AI generates modules, lessons, workbooks, templates - everything
you just edit for personality and add specific examples
entire course built in a weekend while the n8n guy is still debugging his workflow
step 4: use AI to write all your marketing copy
sales page, email sequences, ad hooks, social posts
"write a sales page for this course using transformation positioning and premium pricing"
AI spits out professional copy in 10 minutes
you used to need to hire a $5k copywriter for this
now it's free and takes less time than making coffee
step 5: launch with basic funnel and manual outreach
you don't need fancy automations yet bro you need CUSTOMERS
dm 100 people in your niche with actual value
"saw you're at $5k/month with your store, built a framework that got [specific result], want the breakdown?"
close 3-5 people at $2k each = $10k in first 2 weeks
step 6: use revenue to scale and automate
now you have proof and cash flow
build better funnels, run ads, hire team
but you started with SELLING not with building technical infrastructure
here's why the n8n route is a trap for most people
you spend 3 months learning automation so you can sell $500-$1500 services
you're competing with every other freelancer on upwork
your income is capped by hours and technical complexity
and you're always someone's vendor never the authority
compare that to info product route
you spend 3 days building product with AI
you sell it for $2k-$5k to multiple people
your income scales infinitely because it's digital
and you're positioned as expert not technician
which path gets you to $12k-$15k/month faster bro
selling $1k automation services where you need 12-15 clients
or selling $3k courses where you need 4-5 customers
the math isn't even close
and here's the part nobody wants to hear
automation skills are COMMODITIZING because of AI
synta and cursor and all these tools are making coding accessible to everyone
in 12 months a non-technical person will build automations as easily as you
your technical edge disappears
but SELLING and POSITIONING never commoditize
the ability to identify a market, craft an offer, and close deals at premium prices
that's the skill that prints money forever
technical skills are tools, sales skills are leverage
most people learn technical shit because it feels safer
"if i can code i'll always have work"
sure bro you'll always have $3k/month freelance gigs
meanwhile the person who learned to sell is doing $30k/month with info products
because they understand that MARKETS pay for transformation not implementation
people don't want n8n automations
they want more revenue, more clients, more freedom
if you can deliver that transformation you win
doesn't matter if you use n8n or zapier or no-code tools or carrier pigeons
transformation is what they pay for
so stop learning technical skills to build someone else's business
learn AI prompting and sales skills to build YOUR business
use claude to create products in days not months
use simple funnels to sell those products
scale with the revenue you generate
that's how you get to $12k-$15k/month in 2026
not by debugging workflows and being someone's automation guy
this is why some traders always get in before you do
the average polymarket user reads a tweet, checks a news site, and only after that puts in their bet
i was trying to figure out how to speed things up, and came across something worth sharing
there's this open source tool called polymarket-mcp-server that connects claude (the AI) directly to polymarket's API
in simple terms, it turns claude into a trading assistant that can:
> watch live prices in real-time via websocket
> scan news the second it drops
> check order books before you place big bets
> tell you if slippage gonna eat your profits
let's say some company announces a new CEO at 2pm humans read the headline, think about it, open polymarket, find the market, place the bet
takes maybe 5-10 minutes if you're fast
AI sees the announcement instantly, processes what it means, checks if the polymarket odds are still old (when the odds show 30% but the news basically screams 60%), and flags it for you
you get in before the crowd adjusts the price
///
the tool has 45+ functions built in
you can ask claude stuff like "what's the current liquidity on this market" or "show me markets with volume over 100k" and it just pulls the data
the tool is free, open source, and takes around 30 minutes to install if you're comfortable with basic python
but that doesn't mean you instantly win
you still have to read the markets yourself
