This PERFECTLY explains why ‘The Left’ is obsessed with being morally superior “Did you ever ask yourself why it's always the weakest, least competent, and average IQ people who base their entire identity on morality and tolerance?” Here’s the psychology behind it: “Every human being carries the same deep... drive to matter, to be respected, to reach something external, whether that's money, status, an attractive partner, or genuine skill at something. In the real world, all of these get measured through competence, strength, and intelligence, and that's exactly the problem for people who fall short on those measurements. They still feel the drive, but they can't reach the goal, at least not to the degree others can, and unconsciously they experience the inferiority that comes with actual objective inferiority. To avoid feeling useless and insignificant, they move the target. Instead of competence, the goal becomes being a good person, a goal defined entirely by them that requires no measurable skill, no competition, and no real work to declare victory in. This gets them the exact same feeling of accomplishment without ever having to develop any of the competence that would normally be required to earn it. That's the path the weak and the incapable take because it's the only game left where they can still call themselves winners.” You could spend 1000 years trying to come up with a better explanation for liberals and their mindset and you wouldn’t be able to, because this is it If you fail at everything else, you simply make your entire life about being “morally superior”show more

🚨NEW: Elon Musk explains the core reason why the Democrats and The Left hate his guts and want him dead CRUZ: "5 years ago you were a hero to the left. You were cool. You had cars, you had space, and I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that today, after Donald Trump, the left hates you more than any person on Earth. How is that for you?" MUSK: "It's very weird. They hate me because we're over the target. If DOGE was ineffective and we weren't' actually getting rid of waste and fraud, they wouldn't care. The fraud is overwhelmingly on the left. They hate me because DOGE is being effective and getting rid of waste and fraud that people on the left were taking advantage of. That's what it comes down to. The single biggest thing they're worried about is that DOGE is going to turn off fraudulent payments of entitlements to illegals. This is the crux of the mater. This is why they really want me to die. This is $100Bs, maybe 200. By using entitlements fraud, the Democrats have been able to attract and retain vast numbers of illegal immigrants and buy voters. They can bring in millions of people who are beholden to the Democrats for handouts and vote Democrat. This is demonstrated in California. It doesn't take much to turn the swing states blue. If you bring in illegals that are 10x the differential in the swing state, it will no longer be a swing state and America will be a permanent deep blue socialist state. You won't be able to vote your way out of it. It will be much worse than California, because at least you can leave California. Where can you go if the whole country is California?"

PETER LYNCH: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE STOCK MARKET IS TO KNOW WHAT YOU OWN He says most people can't pass a simple test. If you can't explain why you own a stock to a 10-year-old in two minutes, you shouldn't own it: "I'm amazed how many people own stocks. They would not be able to tell you why they own it. They couldn't say in a minute or less why they own it. If you really press them: the reason I own this is the sucker's going up. And that's the only reason." Lynch then ties it back to Warren Buffett's circle of competence: "All the businesses you can understand is the most important aspect of investing. If you have doubts about a business being in your circle of competence, it isn't." His point: you can understand Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Walmart, Costco. Stay inside that circle. "It's better to be well within the circle than to be trying to tiptoe along the line. My circle of competence is pretty small, but it's big enough."

.bomani on the Warriors: "Ever since [the Warriors] went on that 2 timelines nonsense, they have been actively trying to prepare for tomorrow and this league doesn't really allow you to play for tomorrow and play for today at the same time. It's amazing they won the championship when they did. And why did they win that championship when they did? Because they had Steph Curry. That's why. They still have Steph Curry and this isn't like the last couple years for the Lakers, where like Kobe was cooked, so 'No, we're definitely playing for tomorrow and we just got him here to sell tickets and make people feel better about it.' That's not what's going on here guys. You got the guy and he's still pretty good right now and you're out loud talking about 'What're we going to do tomorrow?' That's the beauty of being the owner, can't nobody fire you for being stupid."

$I hear so often from the Dommes I work with that they struggle with people online fetichizing them and simply seeing them for how sexy and beautiful they are. They project their fantasies and their desires onto you. That stops immediately once you move the attention from you to them. From 'look at me' to 'I see you'. What does that look like? When you create content, think of them and what this scene or that narrative is evoking. What will they learn from you? What they want is not to passively watch how sexy you are, but for you to train them, to give them instructions, to teach them, to guide them, to be in charge, to command them. This is not being an object but the main subject. The Authority figure. How is your content already doing that. The sexy photos can still be there, they are important to already capture des attention. But what you do with that attention once you have it, is where the power dynamic is established. Positioning yourself as more than a stunning Goddess, but actually a woman who has a voice, opinions, perspective, a philosophy, a way to doing things, teaching them what you like, how you like it, why you like it, already makes them want to be that for you. You hold the attention, you hold the power, so you direct it. And for that, you want them to know you get them and you know what lives within them... that creates the desire for you to be the one exposing it. You instantly build trust. Not because you demanded it, but because you earned it: you showed them you know what you are doing. You have experience, you understand them. They are not told to come see you, they are seduced into it. They desire it. And they will work for it. This will attract better clients (real subs) and instead of you trying to get their attention, they will work to earn yours. If you want to learn more about power dynamics, building a brand as a Pro or the psychology behind BDSM, you can now access all my trainings and classes in one place for a fraction of the cost of The Dominatrix Academy. And you can reinvest the total amount towards the Program. Message me [SECRET] for the details. This offer is not available on my website.$

One Of The Most Important Tucker Carlson (Tucker Carlson) Clips “Clearly, the people who run things see the rest of us as slaves. That's obvious to me. I can't imagine it could be more obvious. It's crystal clear. They don't seek consensus. They're not interested in the public's opinion. The overlap between the list of things that people care about in this country and the list of things that Congress and the White House actually do, There's none. There's no overlap at all. The and by the way, this is not my opinion. This is Gallup public opinion polling. Go look at the last 10 Gallup polls on what Americans care about and compare those to the policy priorities of your government. They're not the same. They don't care what you think. They're not interested in what you think. That's publicly available information. They're not reading it because they don't want to because it doesn't matter to them. They're in charge. You're not. So the truth is it's very hard to fight that. I'm not exactly sure how, but I know that it begins with the strength inside you. If you are weak, you will never prevail, and that explains their determined effort to make you weak by feeding you poisonous garbage, by trying to make you take medicine that is not at all medicine, by their insistence that you shut up and hate yourself, by their claim that your children are not your own. They have no interest in you having dignity. In fact, your dignity and strength is a threat to them. It's why they closed the gyms and kept the weed dispensaries open. That's why the churches were shut down, but the strip bars weren't. It's a determined systematic effort to Weaken the population in order to limit their resistance to what they plan for us. Obviously. Oh, you're a conspiracy nut. No. I just have lived here for the last 4 years, and that just could not be more obvious. They are weak, and they are afraid of the population, and I'm sad to say the population has given them very little reason to be afraid, but they're still afraid because they know they're doing wrong. They know they're serving lies. They know nothing They do or say is justifiable, can withstand scrutiny. And on some animal level, they are Terrified of the day that the average person, not some stupid talk show host, but the average person who works at some big dopey company and shuffles to work every day in some pod with a drop ceiling and fluorescent lighting that that guy is gonna be like, nope. I'm not going along with it. Sorry. I'm not going to DEI meeting today, because I don't think you should discriminate people on the base of the race. How's that? Because it's immoral, actually, and we've got a monument on the mall that shows It's a moralist to Martin Luther King, and that was his core message. We're not gonna discriminate against people on the basis of their skin color, period. For any reason, it's always wrong. This is immoral. I'm not participating. If enough people do that and things like it, this whole nonsense will”

Jordan Peterson on why imposter syndrome is not the problem you think it is: 1. feeling like an imposter is actually a marker of mental health and competence. the people who do not feel it are the narcissists. if you have any sense and you are not deluded about your abilities you will feel some version of this every time you level up. peterson says the absence of imposter syndrome should concern you more than its presence. 2. every time you move up you will feel like an imposter. that is not a flaw. it is accurate. when you first enter a new role you are a beginner. you do not know what you are doing yet. feeling like an imposter at that stage is not a sign of weakness. it is a sign that you have enough self awareness to recognize the gap between where you are and where you need to be. 3. admitting ignorance to competent people never goes badly. people are afraid to ask questions because they think they are the only one in the room who does not know. they are not. if you were paying attention and you had a question the probability that half the room had the same question is very high. you only have to ask a stupid question once. after that you are no longer stupid about it. 4. intellectual humility is endearing to people who are actually good at what they do. competent people are always asking questions too because they know how much they do not know. when they see you asking questions they do not think you are incompetent. they think you probably are competent. 5. there is a darker version of imposter syndrome called imposter adaptation. hedonic adaptation is where happiness resets after good things happen. imposter adaptation is where the feeling of being a fraud persists no matter how many times you disprove it. you keep succeeding. the feeling keeps returning. at some point you have to admit the feeling has nothing to do with your actual capacity and everything to do with an addiction to feeling like an imposter. 6. high neuroticism makes this significantly worse. neuroticism is sensitivity to threat and punishment. people high in this trait need more evidence to feel safe and competent. the calibration problem is nearly impossible. you wake up with an ache in your side. is it nothing or is it cancer. most of the time it is nothing. the neurotic brain cannot easily tell the difference and applies the same logic to professional competence. 7. the only treatment that actually works is voluntary exposure to the things you are afraid of. you keep facing challenges. you keep paying attention. you develop competence. the environment becomes more predictable. the evidence accumulates. the people around you build confidence in you and that confidence reflects back. there is no shortcut. that is the pathway.

This Video Truly Can Not Be Shared Enough, George Carlin On American Education “Then everyone wonders why 17 other countries graduate more scientists than we do. Education! Politicians know that word, they use it on you. Politicians have traditionally hidden behind three things. The flag, the Bible, and children. No child left behind. Oh really? Well, it wasn't long ago you were talking about giving kids a head start. Head start, left behind, someone's losing fucking ground here. But there's a reason. There's a reason. There's a reason for this. There's a reason education sucks, and it's the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It's never gonna get any better. Don't look for it. Be happy with what you got. Because the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now. The real owners, the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls. They've got the judges in their back pockets. And they own all the big media companies. So they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else. But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interest. That's right. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table to figure out how badly they're getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. They don't want that. You know what they want? They want Obedient workers. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime, and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And now they're coming for your social security money. They want your fucking retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all from you sooner or later, because they own this fucking place. It's a big club, and you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club. By the way, it's the same big club they used to beat you over the head with all day long, when they tell you what to believe. All day long, beating you over the head in their media, telling you what to believe, what to think, and what to buy. The table is tilted, folks. The game is rigged. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Good, honest, hardworking people, white collar, blue collar, doesn't matter what color shirt you have on. Good, honest, hardworking people, continue. These are people of modest means. Continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don't give a fuck about them about you. They don't give a fuck about you. They don't care about you at all. At all.

Rick Rubin: "Make what you love, not what you think people will like" "If you want to live in a creative way, which will benefit everything in your life, be a better person in your family, do a better job starting a new business, it's all the same. I don't really know anything about music. It's more a way of looking at the world and wanting it to be the best it could possibly be. And doing whatever it takes to be the best it could possibly be." Rubin shares how his career happened: "From the beginning, I never thought any of the things I'm doing were possible or realistic. I just did things out of the love of them, thinking I would have real jobs. That my passion would be my hobby, and I'd have a job to support my hobby. And it just magically turned out different than that without me knowing it was possible." On why some things connect and others don't: "The stars line up at certain times for certain things to happen. Sometimes you can make something great, and it doesn't connect for whatever reason. Sometimes you make two things you think are the two best things you've ever made. One of them connects with the world. One of them doesn't. And it might not have anything to do with what's in the art. It might be that it came out the same day as something else. Or there was a bigger story at the time. There's so much to it that we don't understand." He continues: "All we can do is make something good and put it out and hope for the best. That's all there is. We never know why things work. Even if you make a piece of art and it works, you may not know why." On talent versus work ethic: "There are a lot of talented people who never make it because they don't have the work ethic. It's not just talent, talent's a piece. And you could argue for some people, the work ethic trumps the talent." Rubin explains what real collaboration is: "Having worked with a lot of bands, I see there's often this friction where people are trying to get their idea in. That's not a collaboration. A real collaboration is when everyone who's there is working together towards whatever is the best thing for the whole. Whether it's your idea or someone else's idea, it doesn't matter. If you're invested in the collaboration, you want the best idea to win. You don't want your idea to win." On what makes art great: "What makes it great is the personal. With all of its imperfections. With all of its quirkiness. That's what makes it great. How you see the world that's different from how everyone else sees the world. That's why you're an artist. That's your purpose in sharing your work with the world." He warns against being derivative: "There are these derivative voices where they're finding what they think other people want to hear, and they start saying it because they've heard other people say similar things that are now successful. Even if they have some short-term success doing that, it's not revolutionary. It doesn't change the world. It doesn't last. The people who you first see and you might not like that you come to like because you don't understand them at first, those are the ones that change the world. Those are the ones you dedicate your fandom to for life." Rubin shares his philosophy on taste: "You can't second-guess your own taste for what someone else is going to like. We're not smart enough to know what someone else is going to like. To make something thinking, 'Well, I don't really like it, but I think this group of people will like it,' it's a bad way to play the game of music or art. You have to do what's personal to you. Take it as far as you can go. Really push the boundaries. And people will resonate with it if they're supposed to resonate with it." He describes creativity as catching waves: "We're really talking about magic. The universe conspiring on our behalf if we let it. Being in this flow of catching these waves that anyone can catch. If you're trying to catch it, you're open to it, you see it coming, you take off on every chance you get. And sometimes the ride happens. It's remarkable how it happens. It doesn't come from preconception. It's not an idea. It's through the doing." Rubin explains how ideas exist in the universe: "Have you ever had that experience where you have an idea for something, you don't do it, and then six months later you see someone else has done it? It's not because they took your idea. It's that it's time for that, and you can act on it or not. The best artists are the ones who have the best antenna for this material that's available. It's coming through. The best comedians see the best jokes. They see them coming. We all live in the same world; the way you see it, you have the best joke because you see it best." He closes with how to stay open: "If we listen to what's going on around us, you can overhear a conversation in a coffee shop, and it is the setup for an idea you're working on. You hear a phrase you don't commonly use. My experience is: when you are open and looking for these clues in the world, they're happening all the time. And they're happening often right when you need them."

Rick Rubin: "Make what you love, not what you think people will like" "If you want to live in a creative way, which will benefit everything in your life, be a better person in your family, do a better job starting a new business, it's all the same. I don't really know anything about music. It's more a way of looking at the world and wanting it to be the best it could possibly be. And doing whatever it takes to be the best it could possibly be." Rubin shares how his career happened: "From the beginning, I never thought any of the things I'm doing were possible or realistic. I just did things out of the love of them, thinking I would have real jobs. That my passion would be my hobby, and I'd have a job to support my hobby. And it just magically turned out different than that without me knowing it was possible." On why some things connect and others don't: "The stars line up at certain times for certain things to happen. Sometimes you can make something great, and it doesn't connect for whatever reason. Sometimes you make two things you think are the two best things you've ever made. One of them connects with the world. One of them doesn't. And it might not have anything to do with what's in the art. It might be that it came out the same day as something else. Or there was a bigger story at the time. There's so much to it that we don't understand." He continues: "All we can do is make something good and put it out and hope for the best. That's all there is. We never know why things work. Even if you make a piece of art and it works, you may not know why." On talent versus work ethic: "There are a lot of talented people who never make it because they don't have the work ethic.

The founders of Stripe and Pinterest on how to convince people to join your startup Stripe CEO Patrick Collison argues that part of the reason startups resonate so much is because the outcome is not guaranteed: "If it were guaranteed, it would be boring... Whether or not you're the best person in the world at what you do, you're probably not going to alter Google's trajectory. But if you really want to benchmark yourself and see how much of a contribution and impact you can make--which is a really compelling prospect for a lot of the best people--a startup is a much better place to test that." Pinterest founder Ben Silbermann emphasized this as well: "No smart person that you're hiring is under the illusion that you have a crystal ball into the future and that joining is a guaranteed thing. In fact, if you're telling them that and they select in, you shouldn't hire them because they didn't pass a basic intelligence test. I think it's important to tell them what's exciting and where you think the company can go. But also tell them where it will be hard and chart your best plan. And then tell them why their role can be instrumental--because it will be... What I would discourage doing is whitewashing all of that. If people are joining your company because they want all of the certainty and safety of working at Google but also the perks of working at a small startup with lots of responsibility and transparency, that's a really negative sign." Apparently in the early days of PayPal, Peter Thiel and Max Levchin would tell people after they interviewed all the reasons that the company would fail: "Visa and MasterCard want to kill us. We also might be doing something that's illegal. But if we succeed, we'll redefine payments." Don't whitewash the risks. Instead tell them how your startup will change the world if you succeed and how their role will be instrumental in affecting that change. Video source: Y Combinator (2014)

But if you're competent and silent then you're just part of the background that's keeping everything functioning" On why you cannot negotiate from a position of weakness: "If you want to push your career forward you have to push it forward. You have to be competent and you have to be strategic" "To be strategic when you negotiate for a new position or a new salary you have to be able to say if you don't give me what I want then something you don't like will happen to you" "It's not a physical threat. It's that you have an option" "You have your CV in order. You're educated and competent and desirable to people outside of your immediate job. You're willing to instantly put yourself on the job market" "So that when you go talk to the person you're negotiating with you're credible" On the one thing most people completely miss about negotiation: "It's very seldom that you're talking to the person who's at the top of the pecking order. What you need to do is tell them a story that they can tell to their boss to make you not a problem" "A good story is look we really need this person because they're hyper competent and they have a better offer" "If you go in there with no power you're going to lose. Obviously" He concludes with the one thing every competent person needs to hear: "The first thing you need to know if you're going to negotiate is that you have to be able to say no. And what no means is that you're not going to do it"

"We treat software like it is so precious. And in the new world we're going to, it's going to be much more fungible. But that's the good news." Garry Tan on where the moats will be for future YC companies: "That's where taste, agency, and trust matter a lot. This is something that's only crystallized recently. We've been talking about agency and taste for the longest time. Agency is being able to prompt, and taste is being able to do evals." "Trust is the third thing. It's probably the most important. When you have an enterprise company that is selling to real businesses that are relying on you — that's your moat. Your moat is actually trust. They went through the effort to try you, get you onboarded, and incorporate you into how they work."

It never says anybody's net worth on their gravestone. What it always says is 'beloved father,' 'beloved husband'...That will be the way that people sum up your life."

Jordan Peterson on how to know who your real friends are: 1. Here's the weird test most people miss: you can tell them good news and they'll actually help you celebrate. that sounds easy. it isn't. tell most people something good happened to you and they give you a little whack, then start talking about the great thing that happened to them three years ago. or worse, the great thing that happened to someone they know. 2. the good ones let you have your win. that's rarer than you think. some people, you're almost afraid to admit something good happened, because the second you let it be known, they'll try to take it away. 3. the other test is bad news. you can tell them and they'll just listen. they won't tell you why you're stupid, why it's your fault, why something worse happened to them once. they don't derail the whole thing. they just listen. 4. hanging around people who pull you down is attractive, and that's the trap. you don't have to take any responsibility. you can all whine together about how wretched life is. no accountability, no effort. feels good short term. it's a terrible long term plan. 5. so surround yourself with people who want the best for the best part of you. and if someone won't move toward anything better, keeps doing the same damn things, going nowhere, you have both the right and the responsibility to walk. putting up with it isn't kindness. that's enabling. you're giving it your tacit approval.

Mossad: "We create a pretend world. We are a global production company. We write the screenplay, we're the directors, we're the producers, we're the main actors. The world is our stage." If the Mossad wanted to kill Charlie Kirk because he was about to break with Zionism as Candace Owens had, which would have been a significant blow to them as he led the main conservative MAGA youth org, how would they do it? One way would be to lure him to Israel and stage his death there, with a "OMG AN IRAN-BACKED HOUTHI DRONE STRUCK HIS HOTEL ROOM". But that would instantly raise suspicions among right-wingers critical of Israel and beyond and be too on the nose. No, they would have to find an another way, where they could generate so much partisan rhetorical noise that not enough people would be able to pick up the signal to directly blame them. Now they of course know the US is littered with guns and highly impressionable mentally unstable zoomers whose lives are entirely on Discord and online. So they will set up an operation targeting these people for grooming to do the hit for them. They will of course try to get the perfect profile match, someone with a Muslim, Arab, Palestinian background would be ideal. Then a leftist, trans person, antifa, that's another good pond to fish in. But anyone will do, it's a big pool of disaffected mentally unstable zoomers, and even if you get an irony-poisoned incoherent lover of Columbine to be the one to make the actual move after you've groomed them, that will do too. Now of course they won't say they're Mossad agents, they will play the role they created in their new pretend world for this purpose. They are fellow zoomers, they are Muslim, Arab, Palestinian, trans, enby, antifa, DSA, groyper, they will adopt all the parts and play them perfectly. The world is their stage. They keep trying to light the match and get a hit on one of their many grooming operations, get one of them to actually make the move and draw up the plan and go there physically and pull the trigger. They need one of them to not just agree to it, and draw up a plan to do it, and even drive there but then decide at the last moment it's not who they are, they can't do it, and they will have to disappoint their online Discord bestie who hides behind a fake created identity to best match with them and become their soul mate, while actually being some Cohen sitting in Unit 8200 in Tel Aviv. But one of them will not stop. One of them will draw up the plan, drive to the location with a rifle, get up on the roof, and do the hit. One of them will be Tyler Robinson. The match is lit. And what do you do then? You immediately start pumping out propaganda: The entire Israeli Zionist government and lobby comes out within minutes, as if they already knew beforehand, and says it's a Muslim, it's a Palestinian, it's a KHAMAS lover, it's a leftist, it's part of the worldwide radical marxist left gay trans anti-Israel evil terrorist forces. Noise. You start producing noise, so that no one can see the signal in the chaos. That's how the Mossad would kill Charlie Kirk. Now of course we don't know for certain if they actually did this, at least not yet. But any kind of certain proof you would get for it would come out decades from now, when it no longer matters and they can do one of their archival releases like with the wells they poisoned (see buried deep in some obscure article no one reads, and only by vague general innuendo. If even that.

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: Rep. Tim Burchett is a national treasure! Q: Is there room in the GOP for people who don't agree with President Trump? BURCHETT: "There's always room...you can take [Trump] on if you want, but the results are always the same! I think [Marjorie Taylor Greene] fell in love with being on CNN and The View and getting that embrace from people that normally spend a lot of time ripping her." "This is the difference between us and the Democrats. They use the, as I like to say, the stick and the carrot. They reward you with the carrot or they beat you over the head with the stick." "And that's why they always vote in unison and they never would allow a bill up until they had other people whipped into place or bought off!" "They do it better behind closed doors and we don't. We're vocal and I think that's part of our strength. People are going to argue or they're going to have differences, but President Trump's the biggest dog in the pound."

What you're looking at started as something that most people drive past without a second thought. - Industrial - boring - overlooked And someone looked at it and saw something no one else was seeing. That's the whole game here. You don't have to invent something brand new to make serious money. You just have to see potential where everyone else sees limitations. You have to look at what already exists and imagine it just a little differently. So when you turn something familiar into something unexpected, it becomes shareable and memorable. It becomes the thing that people can't stop talking about because it's different in a world where everything feels the same. People will literally travel hours just to stay somewhere like this because different is the experience now. Nobody cares about another cookie cutter hotel room that they've seen a thousand times, but this gets filmed and posted and sent to friends with the caption "you have to see this place" And suddenly you're booked out months in advance because you gave something people can't get anywhere else. I love that the raw materials here aren't special, it's just space that was sitting there unused and cheap to acquire The success of this is found in the willingness to look at what everyone else ignored and ask "what could this become?" Instead of just accepting what currently is. That's where the opportunity is. There are thousands of: - shipping containers rotting in fields - old grain silos sitting empty - warehouses no one's using - barns that haven't been touched in decades And every single one of them could become something people would pay to experience if someone just had the vision to see it through. You don't need to build it from scratch. You just need to reimagine what's already sitting in front of you. Because the world is full of overlooked things waiting for someone to look at them differently. And I don't care if AI generated the video because the inspiration you get from it is still the same.
