Blazar is $POET's biggest development because it tries to simplify how AI optical systems are built.

Today, the laser (from $AAOI, $LITE) and the photonics chip (linked to $COHR, $TSEM) are separate parts. Blazar combines them into one integrated unit by bonding the laser directly onto the photonics platform.

In simple terms, it removes complexity, fewer components, lower loss, and potentially cheaper at scale.

if this works, it doesn’t just compete with existing players, it changes the structure of the whole system. But like everything with $POET, it still needs real volume orders to prove it.

[Investing visuals @InvestingVisual]

Photonics stocks are absolutely blazing past year:

• $LITE +872%
• $AAOI +424%
• $COHR +277%

But careful not to FOMO because these come with significant risks as well.

Do your own research, build conviction, create a watchlist. Success favors the patient.

Be real smart about who you keep in your main circle from age 20 to 40.

Around middle age people who made it already know who was a supporter the whole time. Can't just walk up and expect the same level of reciprocity

Anyway. Avoid the unhappy and unlucky!

And you think $IREN is still overvalued??

$150 is so much closer and more justifiable than you think.

@BowtiedPandaBr @BowTiedBull How do u know what is lacking lol

This is the real alpha - this plus with each day you figure out why they said no and tweak slightly but daily.

Are you working out , your style, your smell, your hygiene, your vocal tonality, your body language, your inner confidence, your eye contact, your accessories, your smile - too much, not enough, too little.

Tweak it every day just like you’d do for an online business and soon you will see a 50% success rate from a 1% success rate.

Looks like FTX/Galaxy Dumpoors will be celebrating after all!

$200/$65 = ~3x

Dump the bullet and you just got a gargantuan amount of SOL for free. What a time to be alive.

Magic formula pills will always sell because that's what people want deep down.

Decade + of bad decisions, want some sort of limitless pill to fix their life.

Applies to money, relationships and health. All of them they want some magic cure. Doesn't exist though.

For those that strive to be rich and successful financially, this is always the best reminder of what it takes to make it. All of it is business interest. Retirement and primary residence just nuke downward as you scale up.

The sooner you realize that making money, health, happiness, relationships, success, and all those things you want in life are not things you chase but things you must attract by becoming the person who deserves them, the sooner your life will change.

Read that carefully. It's something you become and attract, not chase.

Your habits, routines, actions, words, and, most importantly, thoughts will determine your fate in life.

That is why you must stand guard at the doorstep of your mind.

Protect your mind at all costs.

Don't allow negative influences to impact you.

Make the right choices and surround yourself with others who share your goals and ambitions and walk the same path.

People chase and always want but end up never having.

That was a big mistake that wasted years of my life.

Always being in a state of "I want."

And the universe kept me in that state for too many years.

So, to make a million dollars, you must first become a millionaire.

It's not to become a millionaire; you must first make a million dollars.

If you can comprehend this, you are already on your way.

Do you understand? ⚔️

Here's one of my frameworks you can follow.

"Sunday Reflections: The Week's Close"

Write Down:

• 3 Gratitudes to Acknowledge

Repeat every Sunday.⚔️

It's the GRIND before the SHINE.

But from what I see on X, everyone wants to shine first.

Some accounts won't even be here a few years from now, so be careful when following them blindly.

Most of their methods and advice are short-sighted.

They won't last, and their money will run out.

I need to see only two things to determine where someone will be in life.

Their Calendar, and their Bank Statements.

What someone intentionally spends their time and money on will reveal everything you need to know about them and their future.

Take a hard look at yourself.

What are you spending time on?
What are you spending money on?

Do those two things align with the goals you have set for yourself?

If not, then they are taking you further from your goals.

Period.

I know it's not popular, but the dull, disciplined, consistent, intentional days of purposeful work will turn your dreams into reality.

So get serious, because your life depends on it.

No excuses.

That is the way.⚔️

figs are true superfoods and one of the oldest foods known to man

they are loaded with polyphenols, phytochemicals and minerals shown to boost cognitive function and reduce the risk of diabetes, CVD and constipation

in women, dried figs help decrease pain and issues with menstruation

If you want to succeed in life, you need to master your mind

The secret ingredient of every top performer is mental...

Kobe Bryant would visualize games in detail before he played, getting hot, making every shot...

Michael Phelps would visualize every single aspect of a race, including how the crowd felt and what it would be like to win

Lebron James uses mindfullness and meditation techniques to stay calm before games

Michael Jordan would spend time visualizing making game winning shots, helping to keep him cool under pressure

In a study on the best Tennis players, the one commonality between top top 10 athletes is that after each play they thought positive thoughts, not negative ones

The Growth Paradox

Growth takes a much longer time coming than you think, and then it happens much faster than you ever would have thought.

Growth happens gradually, then suddenly.

When you realize this, you start to do things differently.

[LISΛN @LOHN_Quotes]

Charm is seduction without sex.

Charmers are consummate manipulators, masking their cleverness by creating a mood of pleasure and comfort.

Their method is simple: They deflect attention from themselves and focus it on their target.

In 2023 you go to college with no classes on:
1) crypto
2) personal finance management
3) tax strategies
4) offshore entities
5) trusts
6) tax havens

They *assume* you is ngmi.

How that education makes you feels?
