Conflicting information is a pain in the ass.

What to believe?
What to use?
What to discard?
Who to listen to?

Usually scientists dosen't give any conflicting information about science itself.
But religion gives conflicting information about science.

Post modernism gives many conflicting information about science.

Science gives conflicting information about religion.

Billionaire right wingers give conflicting information against the leftists.

The progressives clash against the trads.

In all these cases, you need to make a genuine assessment of the situation, to make the optimal decision.

For that you need to process the information well, first.

The only way to make sense is to genuinely understand the whole scenario inside out.
(I have explained how in the above writing)

Only then will order will rise out of chaos.

Manipulations can make you into a twisted being very fast.

You manipulate yourself to work harder, get results etc...the problem with manipulations is that you eventually will be a victim to them too.

You cannot truly sell lies without believing in them.

Instead of manipulations, try generation results from a place of genuine creativity and love.

Manipulations can backfire real fast.

The most effective mass manipulations are the ones when the person manipulating also believes in them.

They also have a high backfiring effect. This part is conveniently forgotten, because it doesn't serve to think far ahead into the future, when the manipulations come back to bite you in the ass.

Then, you need to go overboard to protect yourself from the effects of your own deeds.

Let's say you were lucky enough to escape. Still, you live your life scared.

You have to put efforts into making yourself into a cage to protect yourself.

Be aware.
Strive to understand everything down to it's core.

Stay clear of self bias.

Bias is when you want to understand one aspect of reality, instead of the whole.

Reality is one.

You cannot understand it's working, since all parts within in is interlinked in an infinitude of ways.

Understand everything till it feels absolute.

This is when you get absolute clarity to coast through life, and see things for what they are!

I myself has tried to manipulate my into understanding everything at hand as quick as possible.

This has only backfired.
Nature has a particular rythem to it. Best you can do is to sync with it.

Manipulate your way and you will find out that it requires too muh work and make you miserable from the inside.

Applies in learning, dealing with people, work etc...

Be aware of the flow and attune yourself to it. Most of the work will get done easily.

Little here and there manipulation won't hurt.

Don't go overboard with it.
If you love to engage in philosophical conversations, your biggest bias will be to assume that everyone else around you is also invested into finding the truth.

People really don't care about their existence. All they want is just a little bit of money and pleasure. That's enough to satisfy them.

I can't sleep well if I don't understand the mechanics of the entire universe.

For most people they care about the opportunity cost wasted in talking about philosophy which could have been used to make money, girls etc other survival matters.

Although that's important, those are the side aspects of your life, they are not the main thing.

Get your priorities straight.

Feww...

These days I am not hell bend on producing content.

Sometimes incredible insights come into my conscience, and you know what I do?

I let it go.

Forget it forever.

If she wants, she will come back. Else she goes away.

Counterintuitively, this has given me even bigger insights the next time.

I don't even need to sit & meditate. Just sit silently and these things will just appear infront of me. Sometimes I may be even listening to a podcast.

The mistake I did earlier is that I was overly keen on producing good content. I would jump of to immediately jolt down whatever ideas I had. This made getting awesome ideas hard.

Here is what I missed: Your intuition is like a shy hot girl above your league.
If you give it too much attention you will come off as needy and she will run away.

Instead when she comes, be cool about it. She may leave, even better one will come.

Resist your temptation to record everything.

Somethings are better forgotten.

If you are dealing with the screens too often as a part of your job.

1. Remember to blink often, especially men.

Forget to blink and it will hurt your eyes.

2. Look at things far away from time to time. Atleast a couple of times a day.
Else your eyes will get conditioned to be short sighted (myopia).

Keep your screens at sufficient distance away from your eyes. Don't bend your neck for the screens. Instead raise the screens.

3. No screen before bed.
As hard as it is, it's important for a quality sleep.

Even if you are exhausted, simply sit/stand in the dark with all lights off before bed.

Even doing it for 10 min makes a difference. Resist wanting to hit bed immediately after closing your laptop.

Standing alone in the dark is such a purifying experience.

Listening to soothing music also helps with sleep.

Most importantly no abstract philosophical thoughts about the existence of the universe before bed.

You will lose sleep and the universe.

Clear thinking needs quality sleep.
The curse of teaching.

If you want to learn to drive a car, you need a person who is good at driving. Not an F1 racer.

Only the former can teach well, because he knows what it is to not know, ie relate to you.

Truth definitively exists.

There is no running away from the idea of truth, that truth may not even exist at all.

You can choose to ignore it.
But it won't ignore you.

There is a cost to not being in touch with truth.

Understand till you get can't get anything wrong not until you get it right
Keep your highest goals and aspirations secret.

Talk about them after you achieve it. Not before.

Openly talking about your goals and letting people know about it gives you a false sense of your goal being a reality.

Especially if it's soul draining work with high emotional labour involved, I recommend you keep your goals a secret.

You have all the time in the world to talk about it *after* you have achieved it.

Here is what you should do once you have Learned a technique:

Forget about them.

Yes. If you put proper effort into learning it in the first place, then your body should remember it.
It has a memory of it's own.

You should be able to enjoy the fruits of your results without having to recall/remember anything.

Do you recall how exactly you Learned to write the alphabets when you were at kindergarten.

It was a painful and gruelling process & each step of writing the alphabets & numbers had to be showed to you.

But now it comes naturally to you. Same with learning to drive a car or bicycle.

This is how you integrate techniques into a part of your system.

To truly observe

Is to become a Detached Rational

Dispassionate observer of life itself

So that you may see the things, as they are

Gradually, you will feel

That life bends to your will, my friends

Understanding is a greater set compared to manipulation.

Manipulators understand only to the extend that they can manipulate. They are unaware of the underlying mechanism.

This is why I stress you to actually understand what the fuck is actually going on.

You will be well equipped to manipulate & even save yourself from manipulators as and when required.

With that said you should manipulate reality only when absolutely necessary.

Else just lay back and enjoy the beauty without making yourself miserable.
Silence is absolute and eternal.

It's not the absence of noise, rather noise is superimposed on silence, which is there forever.
Care your eyes:

Keep sufficient distance from the screen.
Don't look down, bring the screen up.

Remember to BLINK!
Don't stare straight at screens for long.

Look at far away objects at every opportunity (to prevent myopia).

Appreciate sights seen with closed eyes.

If life feels hard and difficult for you, then you are doing something fundamentally wrong right at the structural level.

The best solution to this is to take the WEEKEND COMPLETELY OFF.

Just chill out and rest on your chair.

While you are doing so, introspect and find out exactly what you are doing wrong.

Most probably you are manipulating yourself without even knowing it.

Whatever it is, rest and find out what you are doing it wrong.

What I don't recommend is wasting even your weekends with entertainment which is still a lot of work.

True rest is just sitting on your chair doing nothing.
