Nassim Taleb built his empire by realizing that the modern obsession with safety and stability is exactly what gets you killed in the real world in a deep-dive interview, he dropped a brutal reality check on why trying to eliminate stress from your life or your portfolio is the... ultimate trap: "i use the metaphor of a cat versus a washing machine. a washing machine is mechanical-it will never self-heal. but a cat is organic, and it absolutely requires disorder to survive" "if you don't have enough disorder and stress hitting your system, your bones literally become brittle. a massive share of what we call aging and decline actually just comes from pure atrophy and a lack of stress" "the crowd always tries to eliminate the 'boom and bust' cycle. they want a completely predictable world. if they were in charge of nature, they would eliminate the seasons and make the weather perfectly flat year-round" "but what looks on the surface to be completely stable and unchanging is actually incredibly fragile. depriving an organic system of disorder is exactly what destroys it" bookmark and watch his full interview breaking down the absolute necessity of stressshow more

Nassim Taleb just delivered a brutal reality check on how the modern world actually functions. speaking at a recent conference, he destroyed the archaic models taught in universities and broke down the ruthless new rules of the economy: "what is unhealthy is when people become powerful and what do we have now? techno-feudalism. the winner takes all. it's getting sticky at the top, and that completely destroys competition." "governments want to close borders and have a museum state, but they also want economic growth. you want to eat the cake, but you want to lose weight. there is no ozempic for economies." "the only people who care about the legacy media are people who are either in a wheelchair or in politics. anyone under thirty has no idea what the evening news is. they've lost control of the narrative." Taleb didn't build his reputation by sugarcoating reality. he is flat-out warning the crowd that if you rely on outdated textbooks to understand this new era, you will simply be crushed by it. bookmark and watch his raw breakdown of our broken system

Jeff Bezos challenges conventional views on professional satisfaction and executive pressure. His first point is a reality check on work-life expectations: "People have very high standards for how they want their work life to be. If you can get your work life to where you enjoy half of it, that is amazing, because very few people ever achieve that." Why such a high bar? Because nothing is friction-free. "The truth is everything comes with overhead. That's reality. Everything comes with pieces that you don't like." He illustrates this with examples from even the most coveted role: "You could be a Supreme Court justice and there's still going to be pieces of your job you don't like..." His advice is to accept the friction without letting it poison your outlook: "Every job comes with pieces you don't like and we need to say that's part of it and not resent those pieces… but also try to minimize them." Then he flips the script on leadership and stress: "There's this false idea that CEOs are under the most stress. Why? You're in charge. Why don't you delegate the stress?" His conclusion is disarmingly simple: "It's your choice. You have to figure out how to set up your life in such a way that you can minimize the things." Two powerful reframes from Jeff Bezos here: First, enjoying half your work is an achievement most people never reach — so stop waiting for 100%. Second, if you're in a position of authority and drowning in stress, that's a design problem, not an inevitability.

They start the podcast discussing the misconceptions around polio. Rogan: “I read this crazy statistic, and I still can't believe it's real, 90%-95% of all polio is asymptomatic.” Dr. Humphries: “Poliovirus is what we call a commensal.” “So like you have staph on your skin and strep on your skin, and it actually serves a purpose. It keeps other microbes in check as long as you don't get a cut and have a good immune system to deal from the inside out.” “Most viruses in nature don't become more problematic as they go through the human system. They become less problematic.”

Nassim Taleb built his fortune by realizing that to survive wall street, you must be perfectly comfortable looking like an absolute idiot speaking to microsoft's top engineers, he shared the exact math from 1987 that built his empire: "it started with the crash in 1987. i realized that if you position for a massive 20-sigma event, your portfolio is so mathematically convex that you could literally wait 400 years for it to happen again, and you would still be okay" "so i told myself i will only specialize in extreme events. you sit there and wait 3, 4, 5 years. everybody on the trading floor tells you you're an idiot. they tell you you're not profitable" "and then suddenly the crash happens. the crowd blows up, they completely disappear, and you take absolutely everything" watch his full 1-hour microsoft masterclass on the math of extreme risk

in 1996, a young options trader named Nassim Taleb realized that the smartest financial engineers on wall street were actually building massive ticking time bombs to explain why the smartest minds on earth were guaranteed to eventually go bankrupt, he used the brutal reality of the thanksgiving turkey: "think of a turkey that is fed by a butcher every single day. for 1,000 days, the turkey’s statistical models prove with absolute certainty that the butcher is his best friend and the system is perfectly safe" "then, the day before thanksgiving, a single unexpected black swan event happens. the turkey's entire historical data becomes completely useless, and his entire existence goes to zero in a split second" "you can fool yourself with complex risk formulas, but you can't fool reality. the crowd trades exactly like the turkey-they collect daily pennies, feeling secure because a crash hasn't happened recently" "we engineer our capital to be the exact opposite. we assume every standard model is a lie, and position our portfolio to print absolute millions when the illusion of safety finally breaks" Taleb didn't survive decades on the trading floor by trusting academic formulas. he survived by assuming the worst, dropping his ego, and betting heavily against the turkeys watch his legendary 1-hour masterclass at google breaking down the absolute illusion of risk

Culture is genetic because behavior is genetic. This beaver never saw a dam in its life. No beavers or anything else ever taught it to build a dam. It wants to build a dam because it is a beaver. Many beavers together build a big dam. That is beaver culture. Humans are not different. Nothing is different. This is what life is. This is how life works. Your body is your mind. A caterpillar wants to build a chrysalis. A bee wants to build a hive. A lion wants to build a pride. You are not special. You are not above your nature. you are INSIDE of it. The thoughts that we think are genetic thoughts. The crimes we commit are genetic crimes. The art we create is genetic art. Just like this beaver, you can give the animal different sticks and it will build a different dam, but it will always build a dam. And you can give humans different "education," but the human will always use it to do what its genes tell it to do. This is the first big answer that you need. This is the biggest piece of the puzzle. This is how to understand people 90% of the way. You just... notice what they do, and get out of the way, and watch them do it. And if they need sticks, you give them sticks. And if you don't like what they do, you have to get away from them. You cannot train dam-building into them or out of them any more than you can with a beaver. A beaver wants to build a dam because it is a beaver. Whatever you see people build, that's what they wanted to build from the sticks they got in the river they were in. Stop pretending you can change it.

we all dream of those big wins in life the 100x, the multi-million dollar trade, or even just 10x of what you started with in 7 days i’ve been fortunate enough to experience a few of those over the past few years, and the reality is when you do win big, it doesn’t feel like it at all it hits for a split second, and then your brain just normalizes it it's a part of how to get there in the first place, but makes it a lot easier to lose it if you don't have the right guardrails in place and in that exact moment, you being even keeled doesn’t mean the number in front of you isn’t life changing it is this is where you have to slow down a bit, breathe, settle your mind don’t just roll it into some bullshit take some off the table, step away for a few days if you have to, funny enough, blowing let's say 10k of it on a beautiful trip to tokyo will save you so much because once you actually process what just happened, your future self will thank you for it the truth is, even if you think you’re going for a certain number, the moment you hit it, you’ll want more and more, and more anyone who's been in the same position will tell you the exact same thing ironically the people that win are addicted to winning and if you ask the same people in a year after that big win, what they regret and where are they proud of themselves? they will tell you they regretted rolling it over and giving some/all back or they are proud for switching back on the switch all of this is real, but it’s also exactly how i imagined it would feel years ago before it ever happened manifest your life, the feeling not just the number everything happens twice, first in your mind, then in reality

🚨#BREAKING - MARITIME LAW - Ok, this is epic, and it will blow your mind, if you don't even know it. Those who are awake will know. That's great and this is what we should share. So, your birth certificate is where it all begins. This is where much of the corruption begins. The moment you sign your BC, it is Maritime law. You are actually signing a form that classifies you as dead at sea. You become a commodity of the system and honestly you Google it, you research it and you probably have to be fair like I said, but it's true. You become um... In a sense, they seize all the assets and go into what they call a trust fund and then you have 6 years to declare yourself alive. Declare yourself still here and then you can regain your sovereignty. But we didn't know that. It was a system they had set up so that you and I and everyone else were traded like cattle on the stock market. So each of us has a trust fund. And depending on how old you are, it depends on how much money is there. So if you're over 50 or something, you've got millions in there because that's how long we've been traded for. And this is another thing that is also crazy. That's why the mortgage system is absolutely ruined. So when you go for a mortgage, you basically sign the papers and they always tell you, "come back in 3 days and we'll have the money." They then take that money out of their trust fund to pay for the house. So, that comes out of your trust fund in your name, which has been growing since you were born. They then charge you interest on your money, but they don't care about the monetary side. They want the house. So if you miss a payment, they'll miss out immediately, because they can repossess your house. For them the house is a commodity, an asset. Wait to share what the banks do, but this trust fund is where much of your money will come from and be returned to you. This is their money that they have earned from you. So, that's just one thing. Then you also have the tax side. Taxes have never been taken from us, it is illegal. It is a corrupt system. So, all the taxes that we pay, it is not that they are going to return them to us, like the exact amount of taxes that we paid. What I have heard on the channels is the fact that it will be bond based, so at a certain age you will get so much money back, at a certain age this... I think the 62+ category was like 110k or something like that. But obviously they'll know more about that when it comes, but that's where more money comes from. Honestly, you are ready to live a life of abundance. This is money that was ours, that should be ours, that we should have been living with to create a better life. Instead, they have put us in this corrupt system where they have been fighting and they are taking all of our money and keeping it for themselves. for themselves. I hope I have shed light on this. Many people ask where this abundance comes from. Remember that the 1% controlled 99% of the wealth that now comes back to us to live a completely different life. They will give us what is owed to us because we should never have fought like this. Join, it's not too late! 👇 ✅️

🧠PROFOUND: Former hedge fund manager David Rogers Webb describes how the central banks are "the true seat of power" and have aimed to "sever [us] from understanding that our minds create reality" "The mind is very powerful. And the people that are controlling this system, they are using their minds to manifest what is happening to us" "[they want us to think that] you can't know anything beyond the material world.

Beginning with Marx and dialectical materialism in the 19th century. This is very important that, prior to that, in Hegelian dialectics, the point of Hegelian dialectics was to know the truth, to know reality through argumentation.

Just so everyone is aware... At this present-time in America, if you want to set up a protest against the data center construction in your town, and call out your local representative while doing so that is now an ARRESTABLE OFFENSE. It doesn't matter what you actually say on social media, it is apparently up to the state DA, and local police. Arrested...WITHOUT a warrant, or probable cause because they don't like what you said online and twisted it to turn it into a "threat". If you protest your enslavement by the Technocratic NWO, and especially if you get others to join you, you will be treated like a CRIMINAL. This is what we all have to look forward to in the "land of the free" and why I cannot bring myself to celebrate our 250 years of "freedom".

Did you know that certain types of stress can actually be positive for young children’s healthy development? On first blush this may sound counterintuitive. But it’s true. Here’s why: No one is immune from stress in life - and while the prolonged and chronic activation of the body’s stress response systems (as a result of things like domestic violence, drug abuse, and/or a caregiver’s mental illness) can have developmentally toxic effects on children, periodic exposure to “positive stress” helps them learn to navigate the world around us. What is positive stress? In a nutshell, positive stress is short-term and well-supported exposure to things that may be uncomfortable - or even a little bit frightening. Things like: Having to share your toys. Visiting the doctor’s office for an immunization. The first day in a new classroom. Or, in this case, going through the car wash. Positive stress helps to nurture resilience and bravery - which this little guy is showing in abundance. Watch how hard he works to overcome his apprehension about the car wash - powering through in a (semi-successful) effort to convince himself that the experience is actually fantastic. (Fake it ‘til you make it, little guy!) He’s under some stress, but that’s okay. It’s brief, he’s completely safe, and he is well supported by his parents - allowing him to begin developing essential life skills. To be clear, the message here is NOT to seek out opportunities to create anxiety. Instead, it is that we are all periodically exposed to brief periods of discomfort and that these aren’t necessarily to be avoided at all costs, even during the early years.

Your faith was forged in people who would rather be exterminated than assimilated. A soft version of it, eager to be liked and desperate to fit in, is not the thing they died to hand you. So stop striving to be liked. Stop angling to be loved by a world that drove your fathers into the snow. That world would think no better of the gospel today than it did in 1838. Stop trying to file down every peculiar and glorious edge of the Restoration until the world finally finds you acceptable. It never will. And the wanting of its approval is the slow death of everything your people bled to preserve. I am thinking of the proclamation on the family, and of how many have quietly gone looking for a way around it. Some say it aloud now. Some march under the world's Pride banners and tell themselves it is only love. They have done the quiet arithmetic and concluded that if they give the world this one doctrine, the world will finally stop hating them, finally let them belong, finally call them good. It does not work that way. It has never once worked that way. Understand what the world actually hates, because it is not a single teaching about marriage that it cannot abide. It is the claim. It is the unbearable, scandalous claim that the keys of the priesthood were restored to the earth, that there is a prophet who speaks for God, that this and no other is the authorized house of the Lord. That is the offense. That is what it cannot forgive. You could surrender every doctrine the world finds distasteful, one after another, and you would not buy a single hour of peace, because the thing it objects to is not your position on this or that. It is that you claim to hold the authority of heaven, and it intends to see that claim humbled. The doctrine is only the doorway it is pushing on. The house is what it wants. Embrace the truth. Embrace the battle that has always come with it, because there has always been a battle, and there is one now. It is the oldest war there is, good against evil, light against the dark, and you were born onto its field whether you wished to be or not. You did not inherit a museum. You inherited a war, and a banner, and a people who never once surrendered it. You are a Mormon. The blood of the persecuted is in you, and the truth they died for is in your hands. You are not tourists. You are not spectators. You are the heirs of warriors, and the line they held is now yours to hold. So plant your feet on the ground they bled for. Lift the banner they would not drop.

This Interview Is Horrifying. Claim The Stage Is Being Set For The Next Pandemic Says “They synthetically have been manufacturing in biological weapons labs and pharmaceutical research labs, synthetic versions of boom-slaying snake venom for decades in multiple factories all over China — External bleeding out of your eyes, nose, mouth, skin, out of your anus. You're just gonna bleed out all over the place that we're gonna say, and you're gonna fall over dead and see people all over the place just bleeding out of the bodies.” “— What they're going to be setting the stage for is something they're calling Ebola virus and Marburg virus outbreaks. And I believe is the warning they need to have. I want you to be aware that in the last 10 years, they have been studying what are plant based extracts that prevent the Marburg virus and the Ebola virus getting inside the cells of a human to infect it. And they've published what is the most effective thing to do that, and for these two supposed viruses, they actually target entry into the cell through something called TPC2 receptors. And if it's are blocked, those viruses can't get in and you can't get sick at all. Your body will just eliminate this supposed infection for both Ebola and Marburg. And I looked up what are TPC2 inhibitors blocks this receptor from allowing a virus in. And they published the most potent thing that actually does that is a component found in grapefruits and in tomatoes. And it's called negarinin, N-E-G-A-R-I-N-I-N. It's a component found in tomatoes and tomato paste. It's also found in high levels in grapefruit. And it completely blocks the ability of that to get in. In nature, there's a solution already. The Marburg virus is identical to. Dr. Zev Zelenko texted me a month before he died, and he said, Dr. Ardis, the next pandemic that's gonna be coming, it's gonna be coming out of China, and it's gonna be called the Marburg virus. No, I just want you to know that if I die and something happens to me, I need you to make sure you let the world know we already know there is an antidote. He goes, the antidote is zinc. And I said, awesome. Zev, do you know what the Marburg virus is? And he goes, no. And I said, The Marburg virus is actually the identical symptoms to every single venom found in the boom-slaying snake in China. And they synthetically have been manufacturing in biological weapons labs and pharmaceutical research labs, synthetic versions of boom-slaying snake venom for decades in multiple factories all over China. And they're inserting them into plasmids, and they're going to do the same thing. They're going to release it again. External bleeding out of your eyes, nose, mouth, skin, out of your anus. You're just gonna bleed out all over the place that we're gonna say, and you're gonna fall over dead and see people all over the place just bleeding out of the bodies. That is the impact of boomslaying snake venom. In August of 2022, last year, Hollywood actually put out a movie called Bullet Train. So in this movie, they're actually, you're hearing reference to a boomslaying snake over and over and over, but it has no part of the plot of this movie.” This is a crazy interview with a lot of great info but I can’t transcribe it all down to X’s text limits, it’s worth a listen

“The World is Bigger than you. “ As bad of a day you are having someone is having a worse one, as hard of a job you have someone has a harder one. Use the understanding that we are merely specs in the grand scheme of this Earth, when you’re individual life feels too overwhelming. There is a freedom is knowing the world doesn’t start and stop with you, a pressure that is taken off. But on the flip its important to understand what things in your world make it: is it your loved ones, your faith, your possessions. It’s a balancing act of zooming in and zooming out. There’s something to be grateful for every step of the way if you look hard enough
