The external world is one big PSYOP. How is one to respond? Run your own PSYOP on yourself. Write your own programming. Fill your mind, body, and spirit with whatever gives you strength, courage, wisdom, love, and light. You do that and the external world CAN'T TOUCH YOU. You become unbreakable. Their PSYOPS bounce off of you like a bullet bounces off of Superman. "The Kingdom of Heaven is within you." Easy to forget this Truth, but important to remind ourselves from time to time.

Dark times create an opportunity for you to shine your light. Hard times give you the opportunity to become a strong man. It's all about perspective. We have a remarkable opportunity in front of us.

Europe is going to hell in a hand basket. Again. I cannot see how the EU and NATO still exists in 2030.

Becoming an entrepreneur taught me that self-belief and conviction is everything. Without that, you are lost. What it also taught me is that you have to marry that with humility and flexibility. Without that, you are also lost. You have to have unmatched belief in yourself that you will figure things out, and you have to be willing to face reality and change your ways when you realize you were wrong about something. Conviction paired with patience and humility is a powerful combination.

Bitcoin is a new financial institution. It's native to the internet, and it works exactly the same for every user. No insider deals. No opacity. Fairness and transparency for every single user, no matter if you own 1000 sats or 1 million whole coins. It is decentralized and cannot be manipulated by powerful governments or corporations. This is a technology that arrived at exactly the right time because God only knows what the centralized legacy banking and finance powers would have in store for us if we couldn't opt out with Bitcoin. I will die on this hill. I will fight for liberty and Bitcoin for as long as it takes until we achieve victory.

October and November were Exhibit A of why the "stay humble and stack sats" mantra is so important. If you use leverage to try and cut corners with #Bitcoin, you will get wiped out.

Remember that a tyrannical ruler is a weak ruler. A tyrant is insecure and feels that their power is in jeopardy. We see more tyrannical governments in the EU and UK in recent years because they are afraid and weak. A powerful ruler is secure and not threatened by the power and prosperity of his people.

The sooner you learn that it's #Bitcoin, not crypto, the sooner you and yours can be free 🫑

We're going back to the moon, this time riding #Bitcoin. It was an honor to moderate a panel on "The New American Dream" at BTC in DC at The Kennedy Center.
