Your spine has 33 vertebrae. In many mystical traditions, this is seen as a ladder. When the energy (the seed) is saved, it stops flowing "down and out" and starts flowing "up and in." When this "Liquid Light" reaches the 33rd level (the brain), it activates the Pineal Gland to a level where the person no longer sees the world in 3D. They start seeing the "Ghaib" (the Unseen). This is where the stories of seeing "Beings on Horses" or "Balls of Light" near shrines come from. These are Retainers who have transcended the physical.

You need to be lore-maxxing. Taking risks. Failing miserably. Relentlessly strategizing and experimenting. Nobody wants to die with a story that isn't worth telling.

[Tylermckenzieco @kenzsinterlude]

Being afraid of living your life or being perceived by others bc you’re afraid of their jealous tactics and how they respond to YOUR JOY is giving your power away. I don’t know if you’ve noticed or not but these ppl attack you when you’re up, down; happy, sad etc. They hate you bc YOURE YOU. Not bc of what you have or what you do. It’s your essence, your energy, and your favor. YOU are the source meaning you TRUMP THEM energetically NO MATTER WHAT. LET THEM be mad. LET THEM throw fits. LET THEM attempt to harvest your energy and ALCHEMIZE it into more greatness for yourself. Imagine shrinking bc THEYRE mad you’re shining. FUCK THEM.

SpaceXAI engineer, Lauren Tan:

"99% of people using GrokBot just for 1% of its real power. They run 1 agent without "loop" & "graph"

I'm running a team of 20+ GrokBot agents, fully autonomous. I have a Chief of Staff agent, a PM agent and 20+ workers - that's the new stack of engineer"

In a 1-hour session, a SpaceXAI engineer showed how to build a team of effective AI agents from scratch

this is worth more than a $500 agentic engineering course

watch this workshop today, then read how to build a fleet of GrokBot agents in the article below

[Race 🕊️ @multiplanet1]

Elon Musk was asked how he evaluates whether an idea is worth pursuing.

His answer was a physics concept that most business people have never heard of.

He said "first principles thinking."

He explained it simply. Most people think by analogy. "This is like that, so we should do what they did." First principles thinking breaks every problem down to its most fundamental truths and builds up from there. No analogies. No precedent. No "this is how it's always been done." Just the raw physics of the situation.

He gave the example that started SpaceX. He wanted to buy a rocket. The cheapest option was $65 million from Russia. Instead of accepting that price as reality he asked what a rocket is actually made of. Aluminum alloys, titanium, copper, carbon fiber. He priced the raw materials. They cost roughly 2% of the finished rocket price. The remaining 98% was manufacturing inefficiency and profit margins.

So he decided to build his own rockets. Everyone in aerospace told him it was impossible. Their reasoning was by analogy: "no private company has ever successfully built an orbital rocket, therefore a private company cannot build an orbital rocket." This is analogy thinking. The history says no, so the answer is no.

First principles says: the raw materials cost 2% of the final price. The physics of rocketry is well-understood. The manufacturing processes exist. Therefore the only reason rockets cost $65 million is because nobody has optimized the manufacturing. The physics doesn't prevent cheap rockets. The industry does.

SpaceX now launches rockets at roughly 10% of what it cost NASA to launch the same payload. Not because Elon found a new physics. Because he refused to accept the old analogy.

Every industry has a version of the $65 million rocket. A price everyone accepts because everyone before them accepted it. First principles asks "but why does it actually cost this much?" and the answer is almost never "because the physics requires it." The answer is almost always "because nobody questioned it."

[Nornal Guy 🧙‍♂️ @theralkia]

The people you believe are “better than you” are simply people you have arbitrarily placed above yourself on some imaginary skill tree

Then you bring your own shame into the equation and imagine that other people see the same hierarchy you do

But they are just participating in the exact same arbitrary ranking system, placing others above and below themselves because they also need somewhere to put their shame

The hierarchy feels objective only because everyone is projecting onto it together

A shared psychosis

[韩艾伦Evan（孙学版） @imnianyu]

靠近权力的人，会接触到规则和上层逻辑；靠近资源的人，会开始有选择和调动资源的能力；靠近认知的人，会发现世界原来还有另一套运行方式。靠近权力中心：就要学会听懂“权力的话语”：谁在设规则？谁在制造舆论？谁在分配流量？不要被“正确性”所迷惑，而是看清“动机与意图”。靠近资源中心：得做一个资源整合型人，先有能链接资源、人脉、工具、交易的能力。从“单点技能者”进化为“多点协调者”。靠近认知中心：你要主动走出“本能-情绪”层级，开始学习“逻辑-利益-规则”这一套社会操作语言。所以，决定命运的不是出身，而是你在哪个圈子打转，换圈就是换命。

The fastest way to become more intelligent is to have better hobbies. Your brain is constantly changing, and it adjusts to whatever you repeat. You've heard of it before; it's called neuroplasticity. Bad hobbies lead to a poorer brain. But you can utilize this by picking the right hobbies and habits. Writing, reading, strategizing: the usual analytical and creative skills. But there's no need to overcomplicate it. As long as you think for yourself, you'll do something good for your brain. Every investment in intelligence is a good investment.

[BONESAW 🕊️ @BonesawMD]

Every highly successful person you’ll ever meet has a gargantuous ego. Huge.

They know what they’ve accomplished relative to the average person. They’re not stupid.

The nightmare fuel that drove them to wake up and work themselves to exhaustion for years is the average persons life. Every effort was made to run away. To escape. The very mindset of the majority is so abhorrent to them they take severe measures to prevent it from polluting their own minds.

Feel good tropes are PR management.

They’re simply smart enough to know who can handle the full force of their ego without desperate tone policing, demands for ‘humility,’ or incessant complaining.

[Bull Theory @BullTheoryio]

THE US IS PUSHING JAPAN TOWARD A DECISION THAT COULD BREAK ITS ECONOMY

US and Japan jointly intervened to support the yen, with Japan alone reportedly spending $88 billion.

It temporarily pushed the yen from nearly ¥164 to ¥155 per dollar. But it has already weakened back to ¥159.4.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent believes Japan must raise rates again.

US rates remain at 3.50%-3.75%, compared with Japan’s 1%. This gap keeps the yen carry trade profitable and continues to weaken the currency.

Takaichi has resisted rapid hikes over fears of hurting growth. The BOJ has already raised rates twice since she took office.

But with imported inflation rising and 71% of voters unhappy with her response to living costs, another hike has become politically unavoidable.

Markets now expect a possible hike in September or October.

Japan has not raised rates three times within 12 months since 1989.

[alexei @alexeixbt]

you aren't stuck with your limits. they're just neural loops running on autopilot.

neuroplasticity makes identity physical, not theoretical. every new thought reshapes your brain's structure, while old pathways weaken from disuse. repeat a behavior long enough and your brain literally forgets how to be the old you.

motivation is a myth. repetition is what actually rewires you.

I forgot to tell you that boredom is a doorway to the unconscious mind. During the withdrawal symptoms of boredom, you'll feel restless, empty, dull maybe even impending doom. Your mind will be spamming you with notifications (thoughts) to go and DO something like doomscroll.

This is a "self-protection" mechanism stopping you from diving deep into yourself so you don't destroy your current identity (what the ego clings to). Though what you currently cling to, isn't who you were when you were 5 years old??

Your mind is like a browser, every single experience that has had any amount of emotional peak (1/10 emotional intensity to 10/10 - peak trauma) is saved into the unconscious and left open like a tab on a browser.

On an unconscious level you store this experience as "important" and it slowly merges into a part of your identity, sneakily running your life experience.

You'll start remembering times when you were embarrassed, when you screwed up a relationship or fumbled an opportunity, made an ass of yourself. Things you haven't thought of in years.

Whatever you have unknowingly saved will play out in real life, over and over in different ways until it's so painful you're forced to deal with it.

For example you said something in the past that embarrassed you? You'll also feel extreme tension and anxiety when speaking up or putting yourself in a position to be embarrassed, this experience is only pointing you back towards that block but because you have never been taught anything about internal dynamics, you just brush it off as being a nervous person.

When in reality, you've been conditioned through life and your automatic perspective development (how u automatically interpret and save the meaning of an experience - based on your belief system). Btw This happens exactly at the peak of the emotional experience at that point in time.

There's too many experiences to consciously summon up, hence why boredom is so important, and instead of ever closing the tabs you just keep opening new ones hoping that life is going to change but they act as a self repeating loop as your browser (mind) automatically takes you to the websites saved in the cookies (circumstances that reflect ur beliefs).

When you go deep into boredom something deeper takes over

The same thing that makes life grow and adapt through evolution (infinite intelligence) is within you and in this bored state it spawns random memories from your past into your conscious mind. It will never bring up something too difficult to deal with at your current point, and it will never bombard you with too much. It brings you exactly what you're capable and ready to deal with.

The process I used to navigate this was

Bored -> Discomfort -> Ease -> Random memory arises -> Close eyes and go into the memory -> Pinpoint the view/perspective I adopted at that point in time @ emotional climax -> look at it and see if it's actually true/useful or due to my ignorance/lack of aware at that point in time -> 99.9% of the time it's useless -> Accept that and forgive myself/others in the memory -> Reframe perspective with the more understanding view I can generate now -> The old view is automatically let go of and replaced by the higher view.

After that is when the childlike wonder hits full force. I've done this countless times, there were times I couldn't sleep at night because memories from the last 2 decades were spawning in my mind, one after the other.

I noticed after I did these sessions I was filled with an immense amount of joy, curiosity and excitement. I was able to fall in love with what was currently in front of me.

Like how a child can play in the field for hours, endlessly entertaining themselves with their imagination, I was doing the same in my adult life.

I was finally able to allow myself to dream to be curious about what could be, to allow your intuition (fun-meter) to guide you through life and have no blocks in letting that express itself.

You fall into a dance with life, you can let yourself be led by what you KNOW you want to do (while factoring in the totality of your present circumstances).

You work a job and realise the only reason you chose to work a job was because of XYZ belief you adopted from your dad when you were 9 (get a job or be poor forever).

Now that you've closed that tab, you get curious about creating a different income source, and when you open the internet to look, you see a new piece of content from a creator you've never heard of before or maybe you have but have never resonated with their stuff, maybe you feel so resonant you dm them, then for some reason they drop so MUCH SAUCE on you to point you in the right direction. (it happens more magically than this btw).

Now you're excited, now you fall in love with what you do, you love the process of learning new things, you get excited thinking about how to run things, you get challenged and it motivates you to solve the problem, before you know it, you're running a business beyond what you even KNEW was a possibility just a short time ago

After doing this practice more and more, that spaciousness that now is present in your unconscious becomes reflected in the circumstances of your life. You feel infinite possibility right here, right now. You don't feel BOUND to anything. You feel you could choose to do anything and there is NOTHING BLOCKING YOU FROM IT, except your own genuine curiosity but that doesn't matter because it leads you exactly where you TRULY want to be.

To sum it up

Boredom -> Ride out the discomfort -> Close tabs -> Follow Childlike Curiosity -> Enjoy your life day by day -> It gets better than you could imagine -> ??????
