I saw a great post the other day from Sneak Berlin about some of the great ideas that have shaped his outlook. I figured I would do something similar and talk about ideas that have shifted my own. This will be a living document and continually updated with ideas that have been impactful to me. You can only control a...

For much of my adult life, I was guided by Lust. Lust for cars, or money, or technology, but mostly - lust of women. I would view women as objects to simply meet my desires and then to be cast aside as I moved through life. It was a harrowing experience, to watch myself participate in the world’s shallowness -...

A few years ago, I wrote an article about how I use org-mode to get things done. My workflow has evolved drastically from there - little did I know that I would fall into a love affair with Emacs - so, I figured it was time to update how I have integrated Emacs into nearly all of my entire computerized life. It has...

A thought crossed my mind today: “If you knew someone was dying, how would you treat them?” If you knew someone was on the final few days/weeks/months of their life, how would you act toward them? Would you be more kind? Would you say the things that you should have said a long time ago? Would you call them to talk...

The truly killer app of Android and why I can never return to an iPhone is Termux. If you don’t use a computer to its fullest potential, this won’t make much sense, but for me, I don’t really see myself returning to a device that doesn’t have the capability to run a Linux terminal within it and act as a (albeit not...

If we explore Infinity: There is a highest and best version of you. There is a version of you in the Multiverse that is the Ultimate You. He does all of the right things: He does not eat shit food. He does not watch mind numbing entertainment. He does not consume mindlessly. He does not skip workouts. He does not...

Would you allow someone to stay in your life that was constantly berating you? How about someone that talked down to you, always chastising the mistakes you made, while giving no solutions for betterment? How about someone that tells you that you are not enough? You wouldn’t. If you do allow this kind of person in...

As today is my 30th birthday, I figured I would do the cliche and write about the last decade of my life for those that are entering their 20’s. I am by no means an expert or guru. But, I do believe that the path which I am on is one that is tremendously fulfilling (for me), and the past decade has been an...

On December 5th, 2022, I deactivated my Instagram, Facebook (you’ll still see my account as I am selling some things on marketplace, lol), and Twitter accounts. Two years ago, I underwent an experiment in which I quit social media for two months. This time, I doubled the ante. I have stopped participating in Reddit...

I posted a video almost two years ago talking about this phenomenon. Even more so today, I am completely convinced that you can alter the course of your life by carefully choosing what you allow into your mind. As a programmer, I look at how inputs affect outputs. Sometimes an output is known, but must work...

Inevitably people will try to pin me into this box or that box due to the content of my videos and writing. That is fine - what others think of me is none of my business. On certain topics I will get called “right wing” or perhaps even “fascist”. On others, “left wing”. I don’t affiliate with either side. I have in...

Change your perception, change your life. The World is a Mirror of your inner self. Your life is a reflection of your inner consciousness: whether you view things positively or negatively directly impacts upon your internalization of the place in which you live, the people you associate with and cross paths with,...
