🌕 My Golden Nuggets This Week

I don’t share this because I am pro-drugs or anti-drugs.

My opinion doesn’t matter.

I share this because of the conditioning of the mother of this child.

A very interesting watch.

📦 Product: DJI Osmo Pocket 3.

I use it for ±3 weeks now and it allows me to easily record videos like this outside.

The most efficient camera I’ve used.

Destroy Your Mind & Get Ahead Of 99% of People (In 6-12 Months)

Control your mind.
Or it will control you.

Do you think it is normal?
This voice in your head…?

That voice that no one hears but you…

That keeps talking to you all day…

That gets louder when abnormal things happen…

I might be the only person who ever told you, it is NOT, and I might be the only one who ever will…

Not because I’m special, but because:

EVERYONE is mentally ill.

If you believe that well-known people in this world, like Elon Musk, Cristiano Ronaldo, or Donald Trump are masters of their own minds, you are mistaken.

Don’t believe me, just look around you.

Everyone reacts to ‘events’ emotionally because they lack control over their mind.

And everyone, except for a few individuals, dies without ever even truly realizing who the end boss in this game of life is.
Let alone, trying to destroy it…

As long as you believe that other people and circumstances are the source of your pain and happiness, you will waste your life trying to control the external, which will always be uncontrollable.

Let me tell you a quick story…

My cousin asked me out for dinner last week.

I told him that I didn’t want to go out for dinner with him.
That it isn’t personal and I would have said the same to 99% of people.

He reacted emotionally.

This is not bad.

It just shows, a lack of understanding of his mind.

I am making assumptions here, but there might be a ‘need’ within him to socialize with me or people he likes every once in a while.

Hearing ‘no’ is an abnormal answer.

Now the mind goes on rampage mode and makes things personal.

It starts to speak to him as if it is his own voice.

It might say things like: “He doesn’t like you because of X”.

Just like a jaguar, your mind runs free without your permission.

In this case, the realization that he is dependent on others to fulfill his need to socialize and feel good might show him a way out from the pain that he might feel when this need is not met.

This brings me to the 2 things that are constantly going on in our minds.

  1. The search for pleasure.

  2. The escape from pain.

Any attempt to ‘do’ something to stop these activities of the mind, is an activity of itself that is exactly the same.

So if you are asking ‘how to stop this?’.

The answer lies not in a ‘to do’.

Even ignoring the mind is an activity of the mind to escape misery or search for peace.

Looking for a solution.

Shows lack of understanding.

By this point, you may get frustrated, because you are starting to see there isn’t something to do…

So then…how to control your mind?

The desire to control it.

That is what matters.

Where there is no desire…

There is no way.

The greatest need, always succeed.

Now you may say: ‘But I do have the desire, why am I not in control yet?’

Well, I can’t look into your heart.

Nobody can.

I can’t see your genuine desire.

But 99% of people who are reading this, weren’t even aware 5 minutes ago that this voice in their head that has controlled their whole life isn’t ‘normal’…

So if you belong to that group, how can you possibly have a great desire to eliminate the mind?

You see, there is a lot of truth in Maslow’s Pyramid.

You cannot fake your way into tricking your mind into desiring ‘no mind’ if your actual greatest desire is to solve the need to survive & solve the need for money first.

Don’t fake it until you make it.
Make it so you don’t have to fake it.

So don’t desire to control your mind, because you think it is ‘good’ for you.

Instead, look into what you really desire yourself.

Not what it is that others have told you that you ‘should’ desire.

Or even more subtle, the things that others implied are good things to desire.

And that now have become societal beliefs, so deeply rooted, that you aren’t even aware of it.

Like watching Alex Hormozi and thinking it is good to become a billionaire.

Or listening to Elon Musk and thinking it is good to have a big vision of saving the planet.

This leads me to a question, that could be the start of your journey:

“What do you desire if you are the only human on earth?”

It is impossible to find a true answer right away.

Anything that comes up right away is an answer of the mind.

This is why it could take 6 to 12 months for you to discover.

NOT because it SHOULD, by all means, strive for effectiveness without any belief that ‘patience’ is good for you.

But you have been so conditioned to focus on external things that you have to dig so deep, remove so many layers to find the internal root of what YOU want.

For some, this might take months.

For some, this might take years.

And most never get there.

Because they don’t want to.

And that is fine.

So my question to you:

“What do you want?”

Here’s my poem about the essence of it all.

Because you love to be entertained & distracted while not asking yourself the important questions, don’t you?

From Elon Musk to Ronaldo's fame,
They all feel the burden of this inner game.

Always overlooked, yet undeniably true,
Control your mind, or it controls you.

The search for pleasure, the escape from pain,
In these pursuits, our minds remain.

It’s in the desire to control, where lies the key,
To tame the wild thoughts that roam so free.

Beyond society, where to begin?
To find what you desire, deep within?
Ask yourself, in silence clear,
What do you seek, when no one's near?

In the pursuit of understanding, you’ll gain,
Only the earnest seeker can win this game.

Talk soon.
