  1. Can you let us know the email you sent him? It looks like rehashed info he normally talks about. Most of which are red herring, like the so called recovery, the unemployment, the "healthcare" which didnt let people keep their doctors, cost went up, fees etc yea, as if that is really a great way to care for peoples health... During the Obama presidency the debt doubled, terrorism grew and race relations became worse. The good I see is it got someone like Trump to step in. #MAGA Thanks Obama
  2. You say you will give up alcohol at some point soon, if you feel the need to give up something, why not do it now? I used to struggle with staying organized, I remember I used to lie to myself saying "I will organize all this soon", I never did. I remember thinking, if I make an agreement with someone and they dont honor it, I would lose trust in them. Then I realized, I was making agreements with myself and not honoring it. I then made new small agreements with myself that I could honor to build my self trust up. Now, any agreement I make for myself and others, I strive to honor it. An agreement I remember making to myself, was to spend 1 hour organizing my work files. I remember being surprised how easy it was. As far as resources that may help, I recommend The power of habit by Charles Duhigg and Triggers by Marshall Goldsmith
  3. Im not sure why there is opposition, My guess is its because they just dont understand economics or they want the state to run things. Automation = cheaper, thus, making cost go down. Example, if there is an auto checkout without cashier, then the company wont need as much profit for the items in the store, So sure the cashiers are out of a job, but, their cost of living is down. And because the cost of living is down, there will be more economic growth that normally creates more jobs.
  4. Well, when I first got to deciding what career I wanted, I wrote down my personal goals. Money, free time and the ability to create were a few I remember writing. After that, I looked up careers that aligned with my goals. I had a few options, mostly relating to the trades or STEM. I ended up becoming a computer programmer, but, after 4 years of that I became an entrepreneur as it aligned more so with my personal goals. As far as being completely stumped, I had a friend that experienced something similar. He decided to join clubs, complete a road trip, travel(stayed in hostels) and he meet a lot of interesting people and through all that, got a few ideas for a career. He worked during high school and 1 year after high school to be able to do that tho. However, I think the concept overall is great. If you dont know what you want to do, you can try multiple different things and see what you like before jumping into college or a career. A note on college. I believe about 50% end up failing and 50% of college graduates end up with jobs unrelated to their degree. And of course, we all know about the massive debt problem. College can certainly help your career, and sometimes, its required, however, judging by the numbers, it doesnt seem like its for everyone and I feel that should be noted when deciding on a career. I wish you well, good luck

  6. Hello, I was wondering if Stefan ever mentioned a list of books he recommends? I remember seeing in one of his videos where he recommended someone the 7 habits of highly effective people, which is great. I used to be an avid reader, however, lately I just been listening to podcasts and watching videos(mainly Stefan's work) I was thinking maybe If I could read a few of his top books I will have a better understanding while watching his podcasts/videos. Thanks
  7. The great infowars.com has also seen a big increase. It brings me joy seeing the dishonest mainstream media fall!
  8. I dont recall that podcast, however, it sounds interesting and I would love to know it as well I am familiar with the 10x rule by Grant Cardone. That book changed my life. Im not sure if Stefan got this theory from that tho.
  9. Great work I was hoping to see the code, any reason why you uploaded only the exe?
  10. Thank you, I remember these. This is the actual study the article was referring to http://www.pnas.org/content/106/6/1942.full which was to provide a framework for future work, however, to my knowledge there was and still isnt any conclusion. The consensus still seems to be that brain scans cannot diagnose mental illness or predict the risk of mental illness.
  11. Could you cite those brain scans? As I remember seeing something like that years ago, but they found no correlation. It was a while ago so im not sure if anything new came out. I could see mental fatigue being a symptom of depression. If you are in a state of sadness your mind will be occupied with those thoughts. Well, I probably would consider myself both, but being in sales, most people consider me an extrovert. As far as my friends, I consider them extroverts as they are also in sales, so, they are more outgoing in general. Could you explain your experience with burnout from a stimulus overload? and how you chose to deal with it?
  12. Stefan has a brilliant video on mental illness, titled "There Is No Such Thing as Mental Illness" I am curious on the subject of mental fatigue or burnout. I have looked at the research and it seems many experience it, however, to my knowledge, there is no scientific test that can prove it. Is there a common chain holding people who claim mental fatigue? Is it just an excuse or is there more to it? Any thoughts and experiences on this subject are appreciated And if anyone wonders why I am asking, I notice a rise in the market for "smart drugs" that claim to help mental fatigue. I also have a few friends that claim to experience it and they ask me how I am able to not experience it. I currently do not believe in mental fatigue or burnout, but, of course I am opened to change my stance on it. And one last thing that intrigue me are the studies that claim self discipline is more important for success than IQ. And its supposed that mental fatigue or burnouts depletes your self discipline skills. Thank you
  13. Alex Jones and infowars gets over 100 million viewers throughout his websites, radio and youtube. I have seen many infowars shirts at trump rallies. I even seen a video of someone giving Donald Trump the infowars branded constitution lol Alex Jones has been interviewed on TV many times(piers morgan my fav), been mentioned on tv many times (Jimmy Kimmel my fav) I am guessing all that had something to do with Trump personally thanking Alex Jones. However, Trump has thanked all his supporters in general so I do believe stefan is included in that.
  14. I will say the golden rule Matthew 7:12 Do to others what you want them to do to you
  15. You're trying to give choice a wrong definition, then saying it doesnt do what your wrong definition does therefore saying its not universal. You then admit you dont know what is universal but know what it is not so even if choice was universal you still wouldnt know. For example, If I ask you "do you know what is a Aardvark?" and you say "no, but I know what it is not" then you see a Aardvark, you still wouldnt know you saw a Aardvark or if its NOT a Aardvark because you must know what something is before you can know what you seen. you're not addressing these facts. You presented wrong definitions and trying to equate it to something you cant define.
  16. 1) yes, you no longer can choose what you have for lunch on that day in the past because its impossible and a choice involves making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities so what you are proposing is not a choice. 2)If you dont know what is universal, how do you know choice is not universal? 3)If you dont know what a determinist entails, then you can google some theories on it.
  17. Welcome to the forum. I played vegan vampire and it was great, loved the graphics and game play. I completed all 25 levels. I create games myself but I am better more on the programming side rather than the artwork. I had a few clients but consider it more of a hobby myself as I dont actively seek income from it. I am glad to see you're making revenue through commission and wanting to step it up I am willing to discuss the animal welfare or vegan issue. As I personally see nothing immoral with eating/using animal products or even unintentionally harming animals through convenience, like not watching your every step for bugs, riding in a airplane that can hit birds, cars that can run over animals, building homes on land occupied by animals etc. I do have a moral issue with someone whose intention is to just harm animals as in cruelty which by definition they take pleasure in causing pain and suffering. You can PM me if you want to discuss. Either way I hope you enjoy your stay.
  18. Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. If you had a good childhood it would be hard to understand and share the feeling of someone who had a bad childhood. Thus bringing social anxiety.
  19. You need to factor in the most valuable resource, time. It doesnt take much time to know you can save a drowning kid in a shallow pond. It will take a lot of time to know a legit charity that save lives per dollar amount as he suggest. In fact, he links a charity in his description that says donate and you "could" save a child life. Well In the other scenario you WILL save a child life.
  20. Im not sure if I am following correctly. As you say, "For example, "What will I have for lunch tomorrow Monday, October 16, 2016?" is a choice now, but will not be a choice a few days from now." So, you made a choice now, and in a few days from now it will not be a choice? because you dont have the choice to change an old choice you made? well choice involves making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities, and changing a choice in the past is not a possibility therefore not a choice. 'In November 2016, I will not be able to change whatever my choice will be on that day. Since the ability to make a specific choice isn't true for all time and places, it can't be universal.' So you want to change your choices in november 2016 today? well again, a choice is making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities and changing the future is not a possibility therefore not a choice. You can wait for November 2016 and do what you did before "For example, "What will I have for lunch tomorrow Monday, October 16, 2016?" is a choice now" ie make a choice "Category 2) That I will always get to choose things is also not universal. After I die, I won't be choosing anything anymore and ALL of my choices will then fall into category 1." Yes after you die you wont be choosing anything as that is not a possibility, therefore not a choice. The definition of choice is "an act of selecting or making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities." Can you give me an example of what you believe is universal? And if you dont mind me asking, are you a determinist?
  21. How is reporting what anyone can see and hear elsewhere wrong? I do believe Stefan said its a terrible situation. I do remember seeing someones comment laughing about it and that was wrong. Laughing at this terrible situation where a young woman father was killed and she then speaking in distress or not is what I would consider a "low blow", However what Stefan did was not a low blow. Feel free to bring an argument and I will be sure to hear it. Thank you
  22. Trump - WHEN I am elected, that would mean the majority of Americans are with me. If the Republican or Democratic party for that matter, does not want to serve the majority of American, then that is on them. I as President, will do everything I can to do what I promised. Its not about the Republicans or Democrats, Its about ALL the American people. And I will be SURE to explain to the American people what exactly is happening along this journey to Make America Great Again. Non-political version: I am losing my support due to a private conversation I had with a politician family member Bush. The Bushes have always been against me, why? Because I am not part of this corrupt establishment. The establishment that has put America in extreme debt, Took us to war, Are unable to fix our roads and schools, are bought by and controlled by donors. Its no surprise the Republicans and Democrats are going against someone who wants to change their corrupt system. The American people want change, and WE will do that change to Make America Great Again.
  23. Well in the west, Christians tend to have more children than atheist. Now obviously Japan is different but they seem to have an interesting atheist population, to quote the Washingtonpost "Japan, where 31 percent call themselves atheist, is a little more complicated. While superficial religious observation is common – many weddings take place in churches – formal religious practice has never really recovered from the imperial era that culminated with World War Two." https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2013/05/23/a-surprising-map-of-where-the-worlds-atheists-live/ Now I wished the Wasingtonpost let us know how "many weddings take place in churches" but all I could find was this year 2000 survey which asked mostly females "according to which tradition did you or do you want to celebrate your wedding?" and 45.5% voted Christian http://www.japan-guide.com/topic/0002.html Now I know Japan is mostly Buddhism and Shinto, so im curious if the Buddist and Shinto have more children than the atheist. I dont want to draw any of my own conclusion, just throwing these thoughts out there.
  24. I normally dont watch these political debates but I just checked it out on youtube 2x speed after multiple reports of a poor performance. One thing that sticks out was when Hillary said something like "Trump may not be paying taxes and that money could have gone to the disabled vets". I was thinking Trump just did a fund raiser and donated $6 million to them without coercion. Trump could have brought the idea of the NAP! You can donate without guns. I just checked how many people watched and its over 84 million. Anyways back to the OP I do feel Trump held back but im sure he knows what happen and will take the gloves off in the next one. With a totally unfair hit job moderator and non-critical questions being asked, that is the only option. As far as how Hillary performed. I felt she left the idea of the future of the U.S under her presidency. "There is NO doubts now that Russia has used cyber attacks against US organizations and I am deeply concerned about this" - Hillary Clinton
  25. Bernie should have lost any "high" ground when he endorsed Hillary. Bernie should have also offered to debate the runner up Ted Cruz. Its absurd that bernie wanted to debate the winner Trump when he lost. The Trump Vs Clinton debate I believe is on the 26th of September. Hillary will be coughing out lies while Trump speaks about the reality of the problems in America.
