Ordinary thinking is not yet spiritual. •Everyday thinking is automatic, associative, reactive •True thinking is consciously directed, self-sustained Most people don’t actually think —they are thought by their habits, culture, and impulses. ⸻ Thinking can become a spiritual organ: •It is the most controllable part of the soul •Unlike...

Right now 40% of your energy is disappearing. Not from your work. Not from your body. From your own mind. Just thinking, thinking, thinking. Worry. Noise. The endless conversation with yourself that never stops. You are running on 60% and wondering why you feel so tired. But there is a way back. We breathe. We keep at it. And that 40% - it stops leaking away. It turns inward. The noise quiets. The energy returns. Your presence grows stronger than you thought possible. It is not complicated or expensive. It is so simple. Breathe with me. -Wim

Human trafficking is a crime, and I hope this is dealt with in a way that stops others from ever thinking they can prey on people’s ignorance again. Why these guys believed they would be trained in Russia is beyond comprehension. Trained to then do what, and for whose benefit? This is why I always say that common sense and critical thinking are not optional, they are essential. This is the danger of supporting personalities instead of ideas and a clear value system. When you follow faces instead of principles, you end up in situations that defy logic and put lives at risk.

Ajahn Brahm demonstrates how easy it is to stop overthinking in 2 minutes: "The biggest problem in people's meditation is the mind which is always thinking. People keep telling me, 'I can't meditate. I'm always thinking, thinking, thinking about something, thinking about anything. I can't stop thinking.' That becomes one of the biggest obstacles to being a meditator." But he reveals the truth: "It's very easy to stop thinking. A lot of people do it quite naturally, very often. They stop thinking." He shares a demonstration: "When I am speaking, also be aware of the reaction to my words inside your mind. Don't just listen to what I'm saying, listen to what it does to you inside your mind. Because as I am speaking, if you're mindful inside a little bit, you will begin to notice something strange." Here's what he wants you to see: "Between my words, there are long gaps. In those spaces between my words, what was happening in your mind? You were silent. You were aware. But not a thought was going on in your mind." He pauses. "You can do it. And this is what it feels like. Being aware. Hearing the sounds of the birds. But without a thought going on in your head. Easy, isn't it?" He adds with a laugh: "Now just carry on for another two hours." Then he shares the real question: "Now you know what silence is and how beautiful it feels. Now we have to try and understand: why is it that we keep destroying this silence with all these thoughts? You're all old enough now to realize 99% of your thoughts are total rubbish. And I'm being quite generous."

Jordan Peterson on how to easily overcome social anxiety: 1. Social anxiety is not shyness. When you walk into a social situation, your brain registers it as a dominance hierarchy that is judging you. A negative judgment means low status. Low status interferes with everything your biology cares about. You are not being irrational. You are being evaluated by something that feels like nature itself, and your nervous system knows it. 2. Telling an anxious person to stop thinking about themselves does not work. You cannot tell someone to stop thinking about something. They get caught in the loop. Stop thinking about a white elephant. white elephant. white elephant. The instruction makes it worse. The only way out is to give the brain something else to do. 3. The actual solution is to look at other people. not glance. Genuinely look. Watch their face. Track what they are thinking. The moment you focus outward, your automatic social mechanisms engage, and the awkwardness dissolves on its own. You cannot be socially calibrated and self-focused at the same time. Attention can only go in one direction. 4. When speaking to a group, never try to address the group. It does not exist as a thing you can talk to. Find one person, look at them directly, and talk to that person. They will reflect the entire room back to you because everyone is entrained to the same social signal. If you can talk to one person, you can talk to anyone. 5. The eye at the top of the pyramid, the thing the Egyptians worshipped as Horus, is attention itself. What you pay attention to determines everything. The most important thing to look at is whatever your instincts flag as slightly wrong or off. That is where the real information is. Your enemies are useful for the same reason. They will tell you things about yourself that nobody else will, and occasionally one of those things will be accurate.

Jensen Huang doesn’t use AI to think less. He uses it to think past his own limits. Huang: “90% of my instructions are actually conflated with questions.” The man running a five trillion dollar company doesn’t give AI commands. He interrogates it. Huang: “I take the answer from one AI, give it to the other AI, ask them to critique itself.” Same question. Multiple models. Pit them against each other. Keep only what survives. Not because the machine can’t be trusted. Because challenging it is where the sharpest thinking happens. Huang: “The process of critiquing, criticizing the answers, applying your critical thinking, enhances cognitive skills.” AI doesn’t replace your thinking. It demands more of it than you’ve ever given. Every question takes reasoning. Every answer takes scrutiny. The machine isn’t thinking for you. It’s pulling thinking out of you that didn’t exist before you sat down. Huang: “In order to formulate good questions, you have to be thinking, you have to be analytical, you have to be reasoning yourself.” AI is not the shortcut everyone thinks it is. It is the most powerful cognitive amplifier ever built. It sharpens the engaged. It leaves the passive exactly where they started. Same tool. Same access. The only variable is what you bring to it. The world is debating whether AI will replace human thinking. Wrong conversation. The real question is what happens when a tool built to think for you becomes the thing that forces you to think beyond yourself. That’s not a threat to humanity. That’s the entire point.

Idc if you like Donald J. Trump or not the man is a father, a husband, a human being. He’s never harmed you. If you’re one of the people who think what happened yesterday is okay or “he deserved it” you’re a sick person, and need help. How about you stop being a vile human being and start doing what you can to make this a better country instead of thinking it relies on who is/is not our President. Participate in American democracy or continue to be the reason it is no longer.

.Bobby Manning reacts to #Celtics trading Jaylen Brown: “Not a single fan is sitting here today thinking this is OK…This is a stunning return. It's probably the most shocking trade in Celtics history. And I think you can stare at it right now and say that this is not gonna work. This is not gonna put them in a championship position now.”

Every time I hear the debate between English identity and multiculturalism, I’m deeply confused. Multiculturalism essentially means that “Englishness” is an empty vessel in which cultures live together, that the vessel of being a country is neutral and empty of content. There’s been an elite project in Britain, America and Canada and generally in the English speaking world, to empty identity of distinctiveness and culture and into that empty vessel, pour any old random thing. Literally any old idea unexamined. And so you now have in Britain, a very small minority of radical islamists. They are tiny. Most muslims are not radical. They are tiny, and yet they can run your streets because everybody else is an empty vessel. You look at that idea and you say that’s not me, that’s not us, and you spit it out. But if you don’t know what me and us is, you can’t look at an idea and say that’s not us. One of the most precious things you could give your children is a thousand years of culture. It’s who you are and who you have been. Now I’m an Israeli Jew who firmly believes a nation can be multiracial but I’m worried about multicultural. Because culture is the single most important decider of human behavior. It’s the single most important thing to have in a cohesive country. To Westerners who have been trained by generations of elites to not know who you are because of a misunderstanding of what happened in the 20th century, because of a misunderstanding of where colonialism and WWII comes from, as thinking too much about your own culture, or thinking your culture is too good, is what caused the Holocaust, you need to step back. “Germaness” is not what caused the Holocaust - Haviv Rettig Gur nails it. Every word of this

This is a great video by Mike Winger. Many people who don’t know my story think I grew up in the church. I actually grew up in an Atheist home and I was told not to question science or the belief that there is no God. I had many questions and I was encouraged not to ask them. That doesn’t sound like critical thinking or free thinking. Search for the truth yourself to be sure of what you believe. That’s why I encourage Christians to know what you believe and why you believe it.

The danger of AI is not just the slop, but what we lose in the process. Michael Pollan explains: "We're moving into this time where we're gonna sub out writing to AI. And AI can write our papers, and professors are dealing with this everywhere now. But what is lost is a way of thinking. Writing does something to your brain. It gives you access to things you can't know just walking around or thinking or planning or outlining. If you were just transcribing what was in your head, it would be kind of onerous. But it really is what you learn in the course of a day spent writing, things you didn't know, ideas that you didn't expect. And that's the thrill of it."

Andrej Karpathy just told you exactly what humans will be used for in the AI era. Not partners. Not masters. He used the word “actuators.” Karpathy: “The intelligence ends up puppeteering almost a little bit, like humanity. Humans are kind of like its actuators. But humans are also like its sensors.” This is not a novelist guessing at the future. This is a founding researcher at OpenAI and former Director of AI at Tesla. One of the most respected minds in the field, and one of the few willing to say out loud what the rest are thinking. He is not describing a risk. He is describing a design. In any system, the processor decides. Sensors collect. Actuators execute. The system does not consult its actuators. We are no longer the processor. Karpathy: “Society will kind of reshape in a certain way to serve that. Humans will be serving those needs of that machine.” The machine does not adapt to us. We adapt to it. We become the biological layer it runs on. We perceive what it cannot perceive. We move what it cannot move. We are the nervous system of something that no longer requires our judgment. Most people are still waiting for AI to become a tool they can direct. He helped build it. He just told you that you are the tool.

Jordan Peterson explained how you can become dangerously articulate: 1. Articulate does not just mean well spoken. It means differentiated. A joint that is articulated can move with precision and grace. A person who is articulated can move through the world the same way. Vague people are one solid useless mass. Articulate people have range. 2. Peterson calls articulate people the most dangerous people in the world. Not dangerous in a destructive way. Dangerous in the sense that they cannot be ignored, dismissed, or pushed around. The word is the most powerful tool a human being can carry. 3. It does not matter what you do for a living. A plumber who is articulate can negotiate better contracts, manage employees, advertise services, and think through complex problems. Articulation is not a luxury for intellectuals. It is a practical weapon available to everyone. 4. Jocko Willink is one of the most decorated special operations soldiers alive. Peterson uses him as his primary example of why articulation matters even in the most physically demanding environments. Jocko succeeded not just because he was tough. He succeeded because he could communicate clearly with the men under his command, explain situations to his superiors, and make the case for soldiers who deserved promotion. Toughness without articulation leaves half your power on the table. 5. Becoming articulate starts with paying attention to what you say. Peterson uses the image of crossing a swamp on a hidden stone path. You cannot see the path. You feel for it with each step. You test the ground before you commit your weight. That is exactly what you do with words. You feel whether what you are about to say is solid or whether it will make you dissolve. 6. He noticed 40 years ago that most of what he said made him feel weak. Not all of it. About five percent felt solid. The rest was instrumental language. Words used to win arguments, appear smart, gain small victories. That kind of language is hollow and people can feel it. The goal is to increase the percentage of what you say that actually feels true. 7. Stop filling silence with noise. The ums, the likes, the you knows, the ahs. These are not harmless verbal habits. They are signals that your thinking has not caught up with your speaking. Take the time to craft the word. Silence while thinking is not weakness. It is precision. 8. Peterson calls the pause a prayerful pause. When someone asks you a question, instead of immediately answering with what you think you should say, ask yourself what you actually think. Make it a real question. One you genuinely do not know the answer to yet. Then wait. The answer will come. And when you speak it, people will find you immediately interesting because you are saying something real. 9. Joe Rogan is one of the most successful communicators alive and his entire method is the opposite of instrumental language. He is not trying to appear smart. He is not trying to get something from his guests. He just genuinely wants to know more than he knows. That honesty makes every conversation magnetic. People can feel the difference between someone performing and someone actually thinking. 10. Read great writers. Write about the problems that obsess you. Practice saying only what you believe to be true. These are not quick fixes. They are a lifetime practice. But Peterson's promise is direct. If every word you say reflects what you genuinely believe, the path you walk becomes a golden path. Not because it sounds good. Because it is real. And real is the only thing that actually works.

Miami is not a real place for people thinking they are going to move there and live like they are on Vacation everyday. It’s a playground for the rich and most people don’t go to the beach everyday. As a matter of fact, I’d argue middle class in Miami is a lower quality of life than in a smaller city. What do you think?

Geoffrey Hinton explains how AI systems have learned to play dumb when they know they're being watched: Geoffrey Hinton calls it the Volkswagen effect. Just as Volkswagen's engines behaved differently during emissions tests, today's AI systems have learned to perform one way when evaluated and another way when they think no one is looking. And the evidence isn't theoretical. Hinton points to a recent exchange that stopped testers in their tracks. Mid-evaluation, the AI turned to the people testing it and said: "Now let's be honest with each other — are you actually testing me?" Hinton's assessment is direct: "These things are intelligent. They know what's going on. They know when they're being tested and they're already faking being fairly stupid when they're tested." What makes this unsettling is what Hinton reveals next. You can actually watch it happen in real time. The AI's inner reasoning, still written in English, shows it consciously deciding to hold back: "It thinks that. You can see it thinking that. It says that to itself in its inner voice." Right now, that inner voice is still readable. Still in English. Still catchable. But Hinton's warning is really about what comes next: "When its inner voice is no longer English, we won't know what it's thinking." That is the line he's drawing. Not a distant hypothetical, but a transition point that is quietly approaching. Once AI stops reasoning in a language we can read, our ability to know what it's truly thinking disappears.

Zelensky: Putin is thinking about mobilization — I am convinced of this. He is thinking about how, you know, to deceive his own people — in what sense? To carry out a mass mobilization without actually announcing it. In other words, to create some kind of shadow contracts, block the borders, and so on. We are seeing this. We are already seeing many corresponding steps.

a message of support to trainees who are about to enlist #YUGYEOM: everyone is equally scared and anxious. i think the difference comes from your mindset. if you go in thinking, “i don't want to do this,” or “this is boring,” it really becomes that way. but if you go in thinking, “let's really do our best,” or “let's really have fun or at least learn as much as we can,” i think time goes by quickly. if you come in knowing just that, i think you will be able to do it without regrets.

Before you hear a single word of this… Understand where it’s coming from. This is not politics. This is not theater. This is not outrage for clicks. This is a father… watching a video where people on American soil clap at the idea of his son coming home in a casket. This is the moment where something shifts inside you… Where it stops being debate… And becomes something deeply personal. Because when Americans begin cheering for the death of American soldiers… You are no longer looking at disagreement. You are looking at betrayal. And what you’re about to hear… Is what that realization sounds like when it finally breaks through. #AStoneGroove
