Silently building The Bitcoin Standard

I bought this book from The Easton Press for many reasons. One of them was to study their work. How good is it? How do they do it? How do I compare? Before seeing it, I very honestly was prepared to say "After experiencing the craft from The Easton Press I see I still have a lot to learn. The perfection is exemplar." But Do you know what I actually realized? I'm good. I am not yet on their level. They have 50 years of experience and they do more than me. They actually print the books and sew them. I don't do this. They gild the sides of the text blocks. I don't do this. But what I do? I do it well. I became so much prouder of what I do. I was expecting to be humbled but to total opposite happened. Some things I even do better than them. But. I still have work to do. I can be proud but not complacent. View quoted note →

I'm starting to believe it is healthy to read from a leatherbound. Just to own is healthy. As beauty and good vibes are balm to the soul. View quoted note →

Saw this at the store today. Whiskey barrel aged maple syrup and other such fancy variety. Nice Bitcoin product imo. Just saying. image

If you've never had ramen and whiskey you've never been in that zone where success is inevitable yet not quite reached.

You're dooming because you aren't building anything that maintains your optimism.

I spent the last 2 weeks without constant internet connection. Not at home. Been very beneficial. This is the second time in the past 2 months and I think this will become more and more common for me.

There's no competition when building because everyone is just waiting for AI to somehow create abundance by itself.

A "post scarcity world" does not exist. No matter how productive we become scarcity will ALWAYS be part of the equation. Stop being retarded.

Stop fear mongering about AI. It's not gonna destroy the economy and put 50% of the population in the streets.

The best base for business is economics. Real economics. Not that Keynesian bullshit.

Have you ever heard of Grant Cardone? He's a long time business guru (scammer) and new Bitcoin grifter. He's coming out with a new retarded and delusional business advice every day. image
