>>53072178
You may be confusing the result with the process.
You will stop caring after you solved the issue, but forcing someone to "forgive" against their will without solving the underlying issue will only delay a recovery and make things worse.

Forgiving and letting go while ignoring the process is what bad psychologists would tell their clients to do.

Letting go forcefully will just be an attempt to hide the problem which will always come back to haunt you.
Facing your problems in the past will release the negative emotions and heal your mind.
Then you will stop caring, not because you let go, but because it won't matter to you anymore after you solved your problem.

The mind desires a solution to past negative events in order to have a better solution the next time it happens again.
The mind is constantly trying to hide these past events by wasting energy and it negatively affects your mindset and beliefs.
The solution is to face your difficult past to release the negative emotions and to then solve the past issue by imagining a better solution to it.

Millionaire Fastlane, 4HWW, Profit First which helps keep you motivated and lets you realize benefits immediately from your sales (it's about budgeting really but very relevant if you do a project-based services business)

>How do you decide on what business you want to run?
I STRONGLY recommend starting something in a field that you have the most knowledge in yourself, because you'll be managing and teaching others how to "do it right" if you're a services business, or, you'll be designing the product if you are selling the product. Don't even worry about market size analysis, you are a small business and don't even need to worry about that.

>Trading
Trading is a trap, 99% of people will lose. Selling products and services is the real way to build income streams.

I guess that's true. Because I did go through a process of examining those things from my past. Which is probably why I was able to let it go.
But it definitely isn't a joyful process. If anything it leaves you feeling a bit desensitized and wary. Like pulling a rusty nail out of your foot. The nail is gone but there's damage to the nerve. Your feelings and the sensation of a functional foot will never be the same again.

You could say my situation is a bit fucked up.
I did everything in reverse.
I was initially working on a few business ideas, but a burnout at my work made me give up.
I also found out that my working contract which ate all of my energy and time prevented me from running a business in parallel.
And even if I did the business would be tax raped by the government in every possible way before making any money.

The most efficient method I found at that time was to gamble on crypto which paid off, but now I don't really know what to do next, and my burnout made me forget many things.
If I want to start a business then I have to leave my shithole, but having financial freedom to some level I need to focus on my wealth management knowledge a lot currently.
Once that's done in a few month I may make a new attempt.

For me each time I did this I felt great amounts of energy being released and coming back to me.
The initial process of facing pain is uncomfortable but necessary.
For this it helps having endured great suffering because the pain levels become more tolerable...

It usually takes a few nights of sleep to recover from solving a big traumatic event, but the results are life changing.
The subconscious is responsible for most decisions and thoughts in our life.
To lead a good life the first focus of everyone should be to clean up their mind first.

I don't disagree. It is very freeing and liberating.
Even better when you forgive the source of the pain and remove it.
But I still haven't captured happiness yet. I feel like something very fundamental and intimate in my mind was profoundly violated because of the abuse. And I can never get that back. Childhood without its innocence warps your personality. And there's no cure for it. You can never gain sensation back. It's too subtle for route examination.

I have been trying to think of ways of doing this.
Even for my wealth management I need a business in a tax friendly country.
My current country has the worst CFC rules in the world and recognizes every external business as a business running on its soil for taxation and taxes the business heavily when you try to leave too which is the reason I have to move somewhere else to make everything work.

But moving to a different country adds more complexity and effort to the list of issues to solve.

One thing which makes me a bit worried is that I seem to have suffered an endless number of traumatic events.

Living your childhood in an evil family is the worst curse someone can get.
It can take years or even decades to remove all the negative damage they have voluntarily done and it will keep weighting you down in your attempt to live a better life.

Most financial books are shit and don’t tell you how to do anything other than the obvious.
Twitter, forums, and YouTube / podcasts are better places for finding good strategies because at least they’re meta.
Once you figure out that your goal is to increase income and net worth through the acquisition of skills and assets and not to waste your money on retarded shit then all you need to focus on is doing more of that and you don’t need the mindset bullshit.

There is an interesting life changing event I had at the start of my path for healing.
I think the idea came partially from the rationale male.
I watched this video many times which at that time hurt me as I was trying to understand what I was missing in order to have a similar mind:
https://youtu.be/968yNvFiVH0

My subconscious resisted and tried to make me think of something else but after many attempts and displaying my will this created the first meeting with my inner child after decades of being left on its own.
At that time what I felt was the fear of disappearing if it was not allowed to exist, but the fear was so powerful that it moved me and made me want to protect it at all costs despite my state of having lost all my emotions and being a numbed zombie at that time.

Then I repeated to my inner child 3 main ideas:
You are allowed to exist and are important.
I will support you unconditionally no matter what happens even if I have to take on the entire world to protect you.
I will love you unconditionally and will love you even more as you express your desires and play in the world.

After some time what I felt was like being reunited with the entire source of light in this world and the happiest moment in my life as my inner child expressed its happiness for being alive and accepted. I recovered my emotions at this moment.
It then returned this love by giving me support in every bad times I encountered in my life and became my best ally.
The inner child is the source of light and happiness for everyone. It lives in the current moment and wants to play.

You may be missing some of this and may need to have this conversation with your inner child.
The inner child owns your emotions and if you can't feel happiness it's because it can't feel happiness yet.
Bad and good emotions are connected.
You need to accept the bad to get the good.

You may need to accept all your sadness first if you want to recover your happiness.

[Anonymous No.53072821]

>>53072487
You should try to imagine yourself in a calm place with your inner child and try to have a conversation with him.
Once your link with your inner child is completely restored you will recover all your emotions.
He may need to release the remaining negative emotions and need someone to become a new reference for a good parent to give him confidence and support.

You may still have remaining traumatic events which need to be emotionally released and solved.

This. You get to the point of letting it go by processing the emotions fully. You do not ignore them and allow them to bubble up here and there like most people do. Therapy is very valuable to process your emotions in healthy way considering most men do not have anyone they can unload their darkest feelings on, including the women in their lives despite what said women might say. I don’t advocate for people to go to therapy for eternity, but I think a year or two can be very beneficial for people that have unprocessed emotional baggage, especially of the familial/parental kind.

>Who Controls the Orbitals, Controls the World
>When the Horvath came through, they announced their ownership by dropping rocks on three cities and gutting them. Since then, they've held Terra as their own personal fiefdom. With their control of the orbitals, there's no way to win and earth's governments have accepted the status quo.

>Live Free or Die.
>To free the world from the grip of the Horvath is going to take an unlikely hero. A hero unwilling to back down to alien or human governments, unwilling to live in slavery and with enough hubris, if not stature, to think he can win. Fortunately, there's Tyler Vernon. And he has bigger plans than just getting rid of the Horvath.

>http://gg762.net/d0cs/papers/The_Time_Travel_Interpretation_of_the_Bible__v5-20211221.pdf
We describe the Biblical work of ages as a time travel program for saving humanity from extinction. God's existence is proven as a consequence of the existence of time travel, which is supposed. We present the case that Abraham's grandson Jacob, also called Israel, is Satan. We make the case that the Israelites are described as God's chosen people in the Bible despite their identity as the children of Satan because God's Messiah is descended from Abraham through Satan. They are chosen as the ancestors of the Messiah rather than as Satan's children. We propose an interpretation in which God commanded Abraham to kill his son Isaac to prevent Isaac from becoming the father of Satan. We suggest that God stayed Abraham's hand above Isaac because preventing the existence of Satan would also prevent the existence of Satan's descendant the Messiah. The history of the Israelites is summarized through Jesus and Paul. This paper is written so that the number of believers in the world will increase.

I had a similar experience. Basically some deep introversion/meditation type state let me connect with that inner inner voice beyond the subconscious that has always been there (as you call inner child). It's always guided me and always been right. Yet I stopped listening or had somehow had that voice clouded out. In that moment it was like a giant weight was lifted from me. I thought, "This is me" in the most comforting way. My worries, doubts, preconceptions, problems, all seemed to dissolve. Every paradox in my mind, the answers I couldn't find, were all there infront of me. I knew the answers all along but never accepted them, or never allowed myself to. For some clouding thought in my concious or subconscious would prevent me. But that was gone. I had so much more clarity.
It has lead me down quite the spiritual path.

The Bitcoin Standard and it's sequel The Fiat Standard are both good reads.
First book starts with that island tribe that minted very large stone coins that were owned via decentralized tribal knowhow since they couldn't move them. They got BTFO by Europeans making stone coins easier than them, almost akin to difficulty decreases in crypto or positive supply shocks in physical commodities.
The second book outlines how Fiat has actually been not that much of a failure but more of a necessary stepping stone and how the systems coexist. It's got good takes.

Thanks.
I have been watching his channel for some time and had made an initial preparation which was completely destroyed by Corona.
I had many set backs in the last 2 years because of it which delayed my plans and am hoping to reverse that next year.

Most places I looked up all became horrible shitholes with no freedom during that time and made me reconsider if I wanted to move there.
The only place from my initial list which seems to have been alright in that time and didn't degrade was Dubai but it wasn't my first choice.

Any advice for writing and publishing a book? I have 15+ years selling antiques and collectables and want to write/publish a how to guide that is actually useful, informative and would help people. Not sure where to begin on the path though, definitely /biz/ related as there are many ways to get income streams from antiques, collectables, vintage items etc.

true, it's better to have no friends and limited family over shit friends and family that tries to constantly destroy you

[Anonymous No.53082766]

>>53082582
A good choice.
The truth is that the people you cut off were never really friends or even family because they never thought of you as such.
The real choice is to accept this reality and to move on instead of fighting to maintain an illusion.

Many people don't realize the defensive qualities of the 48 Laws of Power book. Every move you make does not need to be a power grab. You can use it to maintain and keep control of what power you have too. That's a valid and benign use of them.

[Anonymous No.53083063]

>>53082987
yea, most of the "laws" are just ways to not fuck stuff up

many of them are true, but also there are times to go against the "laws"

the problem is people take the book way too fucking seriously, when it's mostly meant for entertainment although it has truths in it which are important

I don't know how he came up with 48 because it seems a lot of the "laws" are rehashes, cool book though

breaks down what the fed and consequently the global central banking system actually does. really only good for macro shopping, but you will be immunized from a lot of reddit bullshit ("money printer brrr") once you actually grok this book.

the author also recorded some lectures of the same material that i think are much better

This book is great for any man. Especially if you work with women. I have always had lots of success with my relationships from a young age as I kind of instinctively understood concepts from this book. In my adult years this book has allowed me to be more in control of the work environment, and have less friction. It is also great for realizing what your current purpose is, and knowing when to let go of something that is no longer serving you. I really believe that anyone can take away something big from this book.
