I don't think the country is more divided than it was a year ago.
People are just more honest about the pretentious form of unity they previously celebrated.
"We're now having a heated argument" ≠ "We were truly at peace before this argument broke out."
I love the how @145 talks about #BitcoinSV projects in a way that previews the larger implications they may have for the #BSV ecosphere as a whole.
Understanding how one thing works can help you imagine so many other possibilities.
"Fulfill your potential" is good advice as long as your defining & refining what that means.
Otherwise, it's a trap.
For some people, "You're not fulfilling your potential" means nothing more than "You're not living up to the expectations I had for you."
What's the 411, bruh?
People who can't laugh at themselves will always be outwitted by people who can.
Hang in there. I hope she gets better.
You may not need to learn how to program, but you definitely need to learn how to not be programmed.
Art is a store of value for ideas.
If you can't learn from people you dislike or disagree with, you can't learn at all.
I wish we had another 2 hours, bro.
The most powerful kinds of solutions are the ones that don't require us to agree about the source and seriousness of the problem.
Sensemaking
Moral reasoning becomes incredibly difficult when your dominant categories are "left versus right," rather than "right versus wrong" and "truth versus false."
The freedom to laugh at all politicians regardless of their party affiliation is the foundation of liberty.
The future will not belong to those who say "Well, I was just doing what I was told."
Everything worth turning on is also worth turning off.
The news is NOT a special exception.
When you refuse to laugh at a thing, you make it sacred and it becomes powerful like a god.
When you lose your sense of humor, you lose your inner freedom.
The best way to manipulate people isn't by giving bad information, but by controlling their definition of what it means to "be informed."
Once people have a bad concept of "being informed," they'll spend their lives feeding bad information to themselves.
Here's the replay from today's livestream on avoiding the clown show, knowing who you can trust, and finding the balance between depending on yourself and letting others help you.
"I have the nerve to walk my own way, however hard, in my search for reality, rather than climb upon the rattling wagon of wishful illusions." -Zora Neale Hurston

Build your brand as an extension of building your self.
Let your mission grow up with you.
Cooperation ≠ Codependency
We can all benefit from the help of others, but that doesn't mean we should see ourselves as helpless when others are absent or antagonistic.
Rely on yourself.
If others support you, great
...but don't sit around and wait.
Today I begin with the recognition that Monday is as much of a day for self-actualization than other days.
Although my activities may vary from the weekend, I ground myself in the awareness that I'm still free to focus my attention in a life-giving way.
The truth hurts, but it also heals.
The truth hurts, but it also helps.
If you're experiencing the truth as something that only hurts, that's not because you suffer from too much truth.
It's because you suffer from too little truth.
