Millionaire’s Law: An Idea To Feed The Hungry

by Leave a Comment

Quick Fact

-Many people are starving in this world, and having everyone pitch in will solve this problem for good!

Intro

We have many wealthy people in America and around the world. Unfortunately, even though these people take care of their needs and the needs of everyone immediately around them, they tend to hold onto their money with a tight grasp and an armored heart. This is why we should push for a law that changes this.

What Is The Millionaire’s Law?

The law is simple in concept and difficult to execute; if a person/company makes $1,000,000 or more per year a certain amount is required to go towards food/water/shelter for the people who need it. My number is $10,000 per $1,000,000 earned, I want $10,000 out of every million/yr to be put towards human wellbeing as required by law, however, I am uncertain of what a reasonable number looks like. For clarity’s sake, this means that if a company earns $4,000,000 in a year, $40,000 of that goes to charity; the fee increases or decreases depending on how many millions they make.

If and when the law is purposely disobeyed the disobeying party is to pay double the amount per million they make. If and when they disobey the new punishment they are to step down from the position they’re in and have somebody competent run the company/project. 

We can also make it simple; when the payment is due all they have to do is pay to a certain organization. That organization is then responsible for making sure the money is given to groups and organizations that are providing food/water/shelter to those that need it. 

Also, we can create this law so it affects people who’ve already earned a lot of money but who are unwilling to give it away. We can name names and tell specific people to give some of what they have or else they’ll face severe consequences, such as Jeff Bezos. If we do not require certain rich people to pay towards human wellbeing we’ll certainly be missing out on a more wonderful life!

Why Implement It?

People’s well-being is more important than obtaining money. Many wealthy people are wealthy because they are heartless, because they’re okay with screwing other people over and getting rich off of their ignorance. ML should be implemented as a counter to this, we don’t want people getting wealthy and creating monopolies without giving back!

Final Thoughts

This is different from socialism because only a small amount of people are required to donate, and because the capitalist structure still stays in place.

We the people have the power to push for this and make it happen! This isn’t something we have to sit around and wait for someone else to do, we can write a representative and propose that this become law right now! I highly, highly encourage you to do so! 

Conclusion

Thank you for reading my idea! If this resonates with you I encourage you to do your best to make it happen :). See you in the next post!

2 Ideas to Help Prisoners Become Better People

by Leave a Comment

Quick Fact

-Prisoners are often angry and/or resentful, and letting them have a healthy outlet is an idea to help them become better people.

Intro

We have people in our society who are deemed too offensive to live among us. Violence, drugs, suspicious activity – you name it. Some people find themselves locked behind bars, whether they deserve it or not. 

I’m not here to plea the innocence of these people, but rather I’m concerned with their current state of being and how it can be improved. Today I will present two ideas that will improve the quality of life in prisons across America!

Idea Number One

He’s running down the street as fast as he can with the police in hot pursuit. He cuts through his neighbor’s backyard, waking him up in the process, and making him quite angry. The police eventually catch him and pin him to the ground, and force his hands behind his back. He’s handcuffed and, after due process, he’s sent to a jail cell.

Depending on the jail he may have things to do, or he may not. He may have recess, work, mealtimes. He may even have access to drugs. However, there is one thing that he probably doesn’t have access to, and that is a punching bag.

Yes, a punching bag. Let me explain!

Prison inmates often (if not always) harbor intense amounts of anger. If anger is allowed to build without release for an extended period of time it can manifest as a criminal act, since ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. 

It’s important to give inmates a way to release their anger. They shouldn’t have to sit and let it build up all over again because it

may very well manifest as another criminal act if they’re ever released. This results in a vicious cycle that isn’t helpful for anybody.

It’s also important to give them limited access to the punching bag on a predictable time schedule. This is for psychological reasons. If you give them a punching bag in their cell then they may never use it, since it’s always available to them. However, if it’s only available from 3:00 pm-3:30 pm every day, some of the prisoners will start to anticipate beforehand and be more willing to participate. 

Depending on the layout of the prison there can be punching bags in the main room, outside, the recess area, etc. The prisoners should be encouraged to punch the bags as hard as they can for at least 30 minutes, and this will help them live out their anger. This will make life easier for them and the staff who work with them every day.

Idea Number Two

We have AA, Alcoholics Anonymous. Almost everyone is familiar with the program since it’s been around for a long time. 

I think prisoners should be required to attend PA (Prisoner’s Anonymous) meetings. The reason for this is simple. When prisoners live together inside of prison they begin to make connections with each other. This connection building can make them even more dangerous if and when they’re released back into the world, especially if they’re still harboring excessive levels of resentment.

If it becomes a mandatory requirement for different prisoners of different backgrounds to sit and make connections with one another (especially with psychological professionals and guards in the room) there will be an absence of one nasty thing in particular – loneliness. We want our prisoners to heal, and the best way to do that is by teaching them how to make strong, genuine connections with each other so they don’t feel isolated and ignored, two feelings that can sometimes lead to violence and the sense of needing revenge.

Conclusion 

Beyond these two ideas, we should aim to make our jails a place of recovery, not a place of stagnation. Or worse, resentment. If prisoners have a way to express their anger and a way to form genuine connections with other prisoners/people while they’re there, then everybody will have an easier time, staff, inmates, and the world alike.

Sincerely,

On Serotonin

by Leave a Comment

Quick Facts

-While serotonin makes us feel good, it also helps reduce depression and anxiety, it helps us sleep, it helps us form blood clots, it reduces your libido (in a good way), and more!

-We can produce more of it with exercise, manual labor, and meditation!

Intro 

Serotonin is almost a household name at this point! We’re told it’s good for us and that we produce it through exercise and meditation. We usually associate the feeling of a good level of serotonin with confidence. And, it’s more important than most of us realize!

Why Is Serotonin So Important?

The main reason we find it so interesting is that it’s thought to regulate our mood. It’s also thought to regulate anxiety and decrease depression. 

I say thought because, according to the source I’m deriving my information from, we don’t know if serotonin does this for sure. However, we do know that SSRIs usually help cure depression, and the way they do that is by keeping some of your serotonin from going from your brain to your bloodstream, which means they just regulate the serotonin you already produce. So, by using a bit of logic, we can say that serotonin 100% helps with depression and anxiety. 

It’s also helpful because it helps you regulate your bowel movements, it helps you up-chuck when you’re sick, it helps you sleep, it helps you form blood clots, it reduces your libido, it helps you be more emotionally stable, calmer, more focused, and generally happier.

It really is a miracle molecule in a lot of ways! I remember working in Texas and sorting out my mind; I was very, very depressed at the time and I did a lot of mental rearranging and healing so that I could be mentally healthy. But I wasn’t very physically active with my job, so I didn’t have a lot of serotonin flowing through my system! If I had known that upping the flow of serotonin through a healthy diet and exercise was so important I would have exercised a lot more than I did – it would have been very, very nice.

How Can We Produce More Of It?

If you’re feeling depressed, chances are you’ll benefit from producing more serotonin in your body. I don’t think many of us need SSRIs since there are some things we can do to naturally produce more serotonin in our bodies. We can:

-Expose ourselves to sunshine and sun lights.

-Exercise regularly.

-Consistently partake in a healthy diet.

-Meditate. I will personally vouch for this because I can meditate while repeating “I choose to produce more serotonin” and I will instantly feel better! I also say “I choose to produce more DMT” and that definitely works as well 🙂

Final Thoughts

I’m hesitant to encourage you to take SSRIs for two reasons in particular: they lose their effectiveness over time and they may be a cause for stomach issues. The reason I think this is because SSRIs prevent some of the serotonin your brain produces from going into your bloodstream. That’s all well and good, except your intestines use serotonin to regulate your bowel movements; if less serotonin is reaching your lower body via your bloodstream this could be causing some problems. Seeing Jordan Peterson have so many stomach problems while taking SSRIs makes this a solid hypothesis, in my opinion. 

Also, if you naturally produce less serotonin than you feel you need, it seems like it’s a constant effort to manually encourage the correct amount of production. That means consistently exercising and meditating for the rest of your life. But hey, life’s pretty good when you feel good! 🙂

Conclusion 

Thank you for reading my article! I encourage you to produce as much serotonin as you feel is right, and I’ll see you in the next post!

The Best Ways To Approach/Counter Tyranny

by Leave a Comment

Quick Facts

-Tyranny is a fundamentally corrupt structure to live within! Refusing to accept it whenever we come across it can lead to a much better lifestyle.

-Disidentifying from the tyrant within ourselves and ignoring tyranny when we see it is one of the best ways to counter it!

Intro

If there’s one thing I would change about our species it’s the relentless pursuit for power and authority. I’ve personally suffered from tyranny and I’m sure you have as well since tyrannical narcissists make the majority of the elite that are alive today. 

But perhaps even more frightening is the idea that the tyrant lies within us on the psychological level, ready to spring out and negatively affect everything around it. Suppressing this tendency sounds good on paper but often doesn’t end well when practiced! 

What Tyranny Is

This is what tyranny is, as I have observed it:

The tyrant is the opposite of the good king. The good king genuinely cares for his subjects and provides for them in plenty. 

The tyrant, on the other hand, only cares about himself. His subjects only exist to serve him, and therefore they are treated poorly.

This archetype has been playing itself out for a long, long time in the literal sense; that is, kings and emperors who didn’t care about anyone but themselves. In America it’s a little more subtle now; we have the CEOs of large companies that often (if not always) act out this archetype.

For example, the people who are at the very top of any candy company don’t give a shit about whether or not their product is hurting people, otherwise, they wouldn’t sell it! It’s not even a thought in their mind. They’re probably spending most of their time working and spending what little free time they have in very expensive ventures. They see people as stepping stones to living out their detrimental lifestyle and nothing more, and since they have as much power as they do, I consider them tyrannical.

Why Tyranny Is So Detrimental

Why should we care that the land is already owned? Why is tyranny so bad? Shouldn’t we just fight against it anyway?

A tyrant is very, very insecure, intensely so. The reason we know this is because they require physical force to enact their demands and defend them from angry lashing out, whereas the good king’s subjects feel loved and appreciated and willing to do what he asks.

In fact, this is why they often have so much power; they feel a deeply-rooted desire to climb the ladder and screw people over because they genuinely feel powerless. 

So, you have someone at the top of government/large corporation who has a lot of power but who’s in a lot of pain. Then you add many, many more people like this and you get what we have in America today – a bunch of people who are always frustrated, late for work, and behind on their projects. Not to mention that many American lifestyles have become sedentary and dangerous due to the lack of exercise and stunning anti-lack of a poor diet, but it’s not entirely their fairly since these people are willing to serve shit to their fellow citizens in the first place. 

Also, without tyranny, there is no corrupt power struggle that really matters. What I mean is if we don’t engage with these tyrannical doings (buying crappy food, participating in elections, etc) they will cease to have any power, and this is good since their power comes at the expense of your wellbeing. I encourage you to think about that!

How To Navigate In A World Run By Tyrannical People

Okay, let’s get into the meat and potatoes of the whole thing – how to deal with it.

Since we’ve had to historically deal with tyranny for such a long time I’m almost completely certain that the archetype of the tyrant lies within us on the psychological level. I suggest the first thing we do is consciously choose to disidentify from the archetype, accept it for what it is, and watch it play itself out in our minds. This effectively transcends the need to act out the archetype, and having our full attention on it helps us understand it fully, and understanding it fully leads to the solution for healing, which in many cases has to do with recognition and acceptance!

After this is complete we have multiple ways of navigating in a world run by tyrannical people:

-We can ignore tyranny entirely. This option is more difficult the fewer people are willing to join you, but it’s still a valid option. If we simply ignore the low-vibrational orders from government and corporate officials we will be in the clear because of the constitution, and we will also be dealing with it in a much more effective way than by arguing. I encourage you to encourage your friends and family to ignore tyranny whenever they see it, and the larger of a group we simultaneously do this with, the more effective and influential we will be.

-We can learn how to love tyrants and then deliberately seek them out. It’s not difficult to love a tyrant and give them what they truly desire, although I suspect this option will not be very effective towards many tyrants since they tend to be the most resistant towards love out of everybody! This path is not for the faint of heart and I commend you for taking it.

-We can separate ourselves from tyranny by buying our own land and living off the grid. Tyranny is present in everything to do with money, and so living off the grid on your own plot of land is one of the best ways to deal with tyranny! Now that I think about it, there are still property taxes and things of the like… But this option brings you very close, and I’m sure you could bring this issue to court if you want to be completely free of tyranny.

-The video and content production-abled among us can add some anti-tyrannical subliminal messaging to their videos! This is one of the most helpful things we can do to counter tyranny.

-Speaking of court, you can challenge tyranny wherever you see it. I don’t recommend this option unless it’s a last resort since arguing with the unreasonable often doesn’t produce desirable results! Even if you’re in the legal right I wouldn’t be surprised if the court ruled in the favor of their buddy since they scratch each other’s backs quite often. If you’re going to challenge tyranny I recommend knowing your rights, the constitution, and the law inside and out, and hiring a lawyer who is effective and has a good heart. 

Final Thoughts

I often mistake outbursts of anger for actual tyranny, and I don’t want you to do the same! For example, a co-worker might say “You need to go do so-and-so” in a resentful tone of voice, and while my subconscious mind says “that’s tyranny and it needs to be fought” I later realize that it was simply an angry outburst and that I shouldn’t have taken it so personally.

Also, while it seems easier to do, conforming to the tyrannical desires of others is the worst thing we can possibly do (in this perspective) for one sole reason: it’s never enough. If you give them an inch they’ll go a mile and then push you for more, because that’s their nature. They don’t feel gratitude for what they have, instead, they’re possessed by insecurity and the obsession for power, so obeying their orders only tells them that they’re on the right track and that they can move on to bigger, nastier things!

Conclusion

In conclusion, it can be difficult to properly handle these kinds of people because they tend to be so powerful. While it can be difficult it’s definitely worth the effort to ignore them because true freedom lies on the other side!

Subconscious Beliefs/Feelings Controlling Everything

by Leave a Comment

Quick Facts

-Many people have beliefs and emotions in their subconscious that run the show.

-Realizing which beliefs and emotions are the most problematic puts them in our conscious minds. Then we can write them down, let them play mentally play themselves out, disidentify from them, have complete control, transform them into other beliefs and feelings, and completely enjoy them for what they are!

Intro

Sometimes we do things and we don’t know why. We believe things and we don’t know why. We have certain opinions, but we don’t know why we have these opinions.

Welcome to the subconscious, the part of your mind that is unseen and very, very powerful! If we bring suffering upon ourselves and we don’t consciously understand why we are probably acting out some beliefs that we hold in the part of our mind we cannot see… I’ll explain what’s going on in this post!

The Conscious and The Subconscious

Jung was the one who expanded on this the most, that is, that there’s a conscious and a subconscious part of our minds. He considered it a psychic fact that it exists, and after observing it myself, I have to agree.

The conscious mind is what we use and see every day. It’s the first thing we see when we meditate, it’s the part that we use in everyday life, it’s what we pay attention to. The subconscious mind is the part that’s unobserved, hidden, and often extremely powerful.

We can access some of the subconscious, however, it’s so vast, deep, and meaningful that even a full breakthrough DMT trip doesn’t show us all of it, and that’s the most powerful psychedelic of them all! Yes, it shows us most of it and it’s worth doing with the correct set and setting, just to throw it out there :p

Often what happens is we don’t make any effort to pay attention to the beliefs we hold in our subconscious, and since we don’t these beliefs tend to run our lives!

The Subconscious Is Extremely Powerful

We’re talking infinite magnitudes of metaphysical power! The difference between holding a belief consciously and subconsciously is like night and day. Not to say that conscious beliefs aren’t powerful, but subconscious beliefs are usually much, much more powerful than conscious beliefs.

Let’s create a hypothetical example – let’s say Dylan consciously believes that he works hard but needs to work harder. However, Dylan also subconsciously picked up a belief when he was a child that goes something like, “it’s okay if you don’t work hard because everything’s going to be handed to you anyway.” This is a conflict of belief and it isn’t uncommon to observe these conflicts in regular people.

Dylan tries to work harder than he usually does but, for some reason, he keeps sabotaging himself over and over again. He doesn’t know why he’s doing this and it makes him frustrated, and this frustration leads to the creation of another subconscious belief, “I’m just not capable of working any harder than I am now… That’s bad and it makes me sad.”

You can see where this can become a vicious cycle; if the subconscious didn’t override the conscious so often there wouldn’t be very many problems, however, I’m almost 100% certain that the subconscious mind takes precedence over the conscious mind in everyone alive today, and that that’s an objective fact that can be observed through meditation and watching the actions of yourself and others.

But of course, hope is not lost – after all, the beliefs are still beliefs that are making their way into your conscious life, and this means that the beliefs wish to become conscious and that you’re able to become fully conscious of them. I’m paraphrasing Jordan Peterson when I say, “there may be 100 dragons but you only have to deal with the 1 that’s in your way,” meaning that when a subconscious detrimental belief is controlling you or producing undesired results in your life it’s the one subconscious entity you’ll benefit from dealing with the most!

Some Solid Solutions

Okay, so Dylan realizes that he has some detrimental subconscious beliefs going on – what can he do to realize and change himself? 

The first solution has to do with paying attention to how he thinks, how he feels, and how he acts. He pays close attention to how he normally feels, and he pays close attention to how he feels right before he begins sabotaging himself. When it’s about to happen he catches himself and stays still instead of doing whatever he was about to do. Then he asks the question, “why do I feel this way? What are the core beliefs that generate this feeling?” He answers himself honestly, asks any more questions that naturally follow… Eventually, he’ll be conscious of the beliefs that were subconscious just a while ago, and then he can stop believing them/replace them/change them/modify them.

The second solution is to stay still and quiet for a certain amount of time and simply pay attention to what’s happening in his mind. If he chooses to open his 3rd eye he can see what’s going on and he’ll observe his thoughts as they come and go, all without consciously doing anything. Being like this for a while will eventually be enough to completely overshadow and solve the issue(s), although it’s often easier said than done since staying still can be quite difficult. 

He can also integrate. He can start integrating himself without even intending to find/deal with the actual problem, come across it anyway, and become psychically whole, which brings about its own set of benefits.

He can create art that expresses the feeling(s) that are trying to be seen and heard. He doesn’t necessarily need to be good at producing art to do this, simply the act of “putting pen to paper” will be quite enough. 

He can use psychedelics to help himself out. He can let them lead him to the path that’s best for him or he can use psychedelics to boost the effectiveness of any of the methods explained above!

Some things that definitely don’t work are picking up new hobbies to avoid the issue, choosing to ignore it, or otherwise solving it incorrectly. If Dylan entertained himself when he could have been finding the core beliefs that caused his misery his situation would have probably become much worse!

Final Thoughts

I want to touch on the ones who find this area of life silly and/or completely unnecessary. Ironically enough, the resistance these kinds of people possess almost always keeps them from living a fulfilled life. A lot of the time they’re even proud of their ignorance, and it can be dangerous to be around these kinds of people. 

I feel as if they need some kind of subliminal messaging to get through to them, IE, speaking the sentence “I enjoy being conscious and I make an effort to be conscious” to them at a sound level of roughly 15 decibels – they can’t consciously tell that the words are being spoken to them, but their subconscious mind picks up on it and takes it to heart.

I wouldn’t be surprised if musicians and advertising companies are already doing this without telling anybody… Why do I feel so good when I watch a commercial, better than I feel when I’m watching the video I clicked on? Hmm, maybe it’s subliminal messaging!

Also, I’m not saying that going through this process is easy – just because it’s of the mind doesn’t mean it’s a simple task to do. But, I am saying that it’s worth digging up and disidentifying from your detrimental subconscious beliefs, I promise that the pain is only temporary and short-term 🙂

Conclusion

Thank you for reading! It’s difficult for me to write about this because I want it to be as perfect as I can manage, and I’m positive that I’ve explained the process properly 🙂

I’ll see you in the next article!
