We are for sure, talking the same thing, most definitely. I ended up using the term 'human being' and the words in that order as upside down in the fiat world we live in. The fiat world us upside down and the kind of human the fiat world encourages us to be is so upside down.

The emphasis should be on "being" human and so 'being' should come first - "being" human. But the fiat world doesnt want us to emphasise this. The fiat world doesnt want us being it. So became the term so widely knows as 'human being'. The fiat world undermines "being" part of 'being human' therefore 'human being' is the preferred term, 'being' is less important, so comes second. Not sure if ive got this across very well

You replaced the word "being" with "doing" which I really liked too, so human doing instead of human being. That was nice. But I couldnt really incorporate "doing" into my thought when I was thinking about how the fiat world has turned our society so upside down. And it seemed to fit and it felt like the term human being has become upside down too. So when i was thinking about it, the fiat world has literally convinved us of reality being so upside down. The term 'human being' is therefore also upside down, so I prefer the words being switched the the right way round, - "being" human.

Hopefully you get what i mean... if not then im in a world if my own as usual. 😇

You talk about first principles alot. I agree with this approach and I try to apply this to my every day life. I am surprised by some of the revelations, many things we do, and take for granted and dont really question, Ive come to realise are not required, and unfortunately are a hinderance to our life. This applies everything from health, to the people we are around, and the things we have become dependent on.

In terms of health, an example could be, when I stopped putting any products on my skin, the improvement to my skin health and overall health has been significant. Less is more. Or I prefer to say do "nothing".

Its funny but practicing "nothing" has enabled me to become more human. We are constantly told to do this or that, behave a certain way, society pushes us to do things that dont always feel natural and the end result often make us less human. To make us look a certain way, or be a certain way, to fit in. In the end, we end up being detatched from experiencing the actual human experience. And we end up expereincing something else entirely which dont always create the best results, not always pleasant, and dont always make us feel great either.

As with money, where we are trying to opt out of fiat, to stop fueling a system which is so destructive, and into bitcoin which creates much more positive incentive structure, there are so many other facets non money related which we can also opt out of which we think is essential but when we disect with a first principled approach, we discover that we are better off doing "nothing".

"Nothing" is a very difficult approach. When we are faced with a problem, so often we think we have to solve it, we have to be the hero, we need to use our intellect, creating a solution. But often our actions are directly causing the problem and many more problems. Our attempt at solving an issue causes a bigger problem. And then we get stuck in a cycle of problem solving, to fix something that causes another problem and so on.

What makes things even more confusing is when we fix a problem, we feel relieved and happy, becayse the initial problem has been resolved, only for the problem to reform and change into something that isnt always apparent in its connection.

I think this is where some of the phrases come from "less is more", "simplest solution is the key". Etc. These phrases are true because they are closer to doing "nothing".

Its funny but the phrase, "I tried everything but nothing works" the emphasis should be on "nothing". Its like we know the answers, we tell ourselves, we are so close, and then we throw ourselves onto a tangent and then we end up not knowing.

Problem with "nothing" is it doesnt really contribute to the economy, doesnt make money, its hard to sell, hard to market, doesnt do much for our ego, but I tell you Daniella there is some serious truth to it. I live by it and always consider it as my number one strategy when faced with a problem. Most problems are solved by this. When I am unablr to literally do "nothing" then I think, how can I do the next best thing as close to nothing as possible.

If a solution is very convulted and complex, then I try to avoid it at all costs. I usually find a much simpler work around. And it works out better in the long term.

Nice! Excellent work Daniella, too much good stuff to unpack.

What does it mean to be a human being? Maybe we should start with "being" human!
Crazy, they inverted it the wrong way round, (intentionally no doubt!). We should never have become a human being, the fiat world taught us to become a human being. We were always meant to, "being" human. This cant be a coincidence, almost like they are saying, no no no, some how the fiat world convinced us that its now outlawed to "being" human. But we are taught that human being is what we need to strive for in this fiat world we live in. Its the civilised way to live, its the modern way to live, the elegant way to live, sophisticated, suave, all while pushing us further and further from "being" human. Purging us from "being" human. We been tricked, thinking the prize is becoming a human being. As usual the fiat world loves to take the piss out of us to our face, and we have naively fallen for it.
Society constantly pushes us away from "being" human. We are made to feel ashamed of "being" human. From day one we are pushed into covering up "being" human. From a young age, a perception is created and then re-enforced over and over, driven into us by the fiat world. And then we wonder why, there are so many negative things in society, all the fighting, the nastyness, treating each other with disrespect, fucking each other over. This is not human nature, its the result of not "being" human. Its the result of the fiat world pushing us into becoming a human being, rather than "being" human. Fiat plays an integral part in enabling this skewed - 1985 - reality from dominating. Why does our society go so much out of its way to stop us "being" human. Whats with that? Why is it that the fiat system we live in is so threatened by those that experience "being" human. Whats with that? Seems like alot of effort, energy and attention has been put into, by our fiat dominated society that stops us experiencing "being" human. Why does the fiat world not like like us experiencing "being" human? Maybe because a person "being" human, cant be controlled in this fiat world we live in. Hence why we are tricked into becoming a human beings instead. "Being" human is how its always meant to be. As opposed to the human being that the fiat world has locked us into.

Bitcoin enables us to unlock ourselves from the fiat world that is stopping us from "being" human. It breaks our obsession with the fiat existence of becoming a human being.

If deflation is the natural state of a free market, then bitcoin is the perfect measuring stick, to measure this deflation. Im excited to experience deflation. Im excited to experience "being" human.
Ive realised Ive been played by the fiat world. They tricked me into striving to become a human being, when all along the goal was always, "being" human.

Nice. 👌

Look forward to seeing you on stage. 🚀

Thats brilliant, so true and from the heart 🧡
