It worked?
Tell others.
People
Be kinder
Would you rather be Smart or Kind?
The universe acts through others
Look who it keeps sending you
Never dive alone
The first rule of freediving. And of life
Tell others
Improve life. Pass it on.
Nothing unsaid
Say it while you can
Speak about yourself
Where real conversation starts
Work
No slavery
Not against work — against slavery
You can opt out
Don't play games whose rules you don't like
No offense
Think all the rounds at once
Compound your way out
0.1% a day
Money Won't Stop
Count what is floating toward you
Body
Try freediving
A gym for the spirit
Try tuning
Bottom up — from magnesium to a microdose
Surrender to the depth
Real power is in letting go
Don't drink
A poison no one calls a poison
All for the brain
Grow the brain — you grow life. Drill new pathways your whole life
The body is a friend
Feed it, train it, trust it
Skip breakfast
You wake up fasted. Eat later
Mind
Sit still
A passage from conceptual reality into the real one
Don't trust your thoughts
You are not the voice in your head
Turn off the receiver
Not tuning. Breakthrough
Catch the autopilot
Caught yourself on autopilot — you just woke up
The brain is a receiver
A glove on the hand of god
Learn Buddhism
Liberation as technology
Question reality
What it seems and what it is
Grow inward
Base reality is a thin layer
The spacesuit
Decide — it does the rest
The inner parasite
It feeds on fear
See wider
The space of variations
Drop suffering
Hurt but not injured
My world
As above, so below
Life
Go through
Not around the wall — through it
Write
Thoughts in your head aren't yours
Talk yourself out
Stitch your life together
Store shelves
Don't take the expired stuff
Locate control inside
Minimally important outside, maximally — inside
Doubts are poison
Stop doubting
Level up
From "all for me" to "all for all"
Do not lie
Especially to yourself
Everything is a lesson
Nothing is wrong. The pain leaves once it teaches you
Joy
Mine joy
Joy is a choice. Mine it
Boredom is joy
Let yourself be bored — that's where the wanting wakes up
The day only gets better
When you noticed — say it
Do what you like
Just want it harder
Love life
Nothing extra. Only what you love
True desires
The language of the universe
Best world
The worst crime against yourself is not living to the fullest
Don't wait
No resting in the cemetery
Life is all we got
Hard? Compared to what?
Give thanks
The antidote to everything
