reminder this guy was a fat guy who never worked out, you simply just had to start running marathons or start a sport like snowboarding, A. its a hierarchy based on skill not on $$$ and being shit at it while learning will put you on even footing or less then others, it will quiet your mind, this is just a retard who sold his project for money and made the mistake of not starting a new project or skill and just did hedonistic shit which will lead to ruin.

it's true in the absence of brain damage or extreme trauma, even for self aware people. spend a day researching personality on google scholar and you will see that temperament, compulsions, relationship styles don't change much. There's a physiological reason for this called synaptic pruning.

Notch got hard rejected by the gaming industry and cancelled for being woke. He took the blackpill and has never really recovered. He is squandering his seat of power and influence but also he feels as though he can't really do much of anything either. So he feels alone in his castle of misery as he looks below the pier and watches the world set itself ablaze. He should've concealed his power level because at this point the dude has nothing to strive or live for and it's pretty sad. He would unironically do well in DeFi if he didn't doxx himself.

This is why you will always be a depressed loser. You just don't understand that money does not solve your problems. You are like an insecure woman who gets surgery and fake tits to get rid of her insecurity, instead it doesn't. You must find meaning in life or suffer and wither away, it has nothing to do with the amount of money you own.

Mere awareness is insufficient, change requires action. Making long term changes to your perceptions/behaviors is more about courage and grit than awareness or intelligence, the vast majority of people are unwilling to improve their situation because to them, coping with vanity/drugs/escapism is preferable to the exhaustion and discomfort of REALLY trying to work on themselves. Also people like these e-famous tech nerds are too short sighted and quite honestly lack the humility to understand that standing on their accomplishments isn't a substitute for a belief system and they will eventually have to find a reason to live beyond consooming and parading yourself around for other people to look at.

It’s funny. I was told I’d never walk again.
I was told that I couldn’t change my emotional stripes.
My patterning had lead me to a lifestyle of self destruction that I couldn’t break out of.
Turns out they were wrong.
I deadlift 250 as of today.
I have a loving relationship and have turned my self destruction into self love and contentment.
Just because the people who fall into the clinical study trap cannot change their temperament doesn’t mean no one can.
Live boldly and break through your limitations.

human interaction becoming difficult due to imbalance is real tho
now must of us autists here arent going to care too much about it but yes you will self segregate yourself
you can no longer vibe with the normies as you are visibly above there petty struggles and this pisses them off since they are envy based
but on the other hand the old money despise the nouveau rich so you don't belong anywhere
truly the chans have kept me sane for a long time now and the past 2 years notable decline is not a good sign for the future
