REFLECTION - ALMANCK OF NAVAL RAVIKANT

 1. Be honest with yourself and the people with whom you are with. Don't be dishonest. But why ? 

You are not in the moment thinking about the future of the events that would happen or thinking about the past event and trying to get benefitted from it. But what's wrong with that trying to gain advantage over a situation by hiding certain matters is that wrong ? No it is not but your time is limited in this planet as he said in his book your work, your tribe, your money, your body everything would be forgotten and  destroyed. And you want to gain advantage by faking the reality ?? 

2. Anger ???????

Same principle - time is limited 

But why anger feels good to me ? 

Because I have build up a ego with myself over these years and not to compromise it make me feel good about myself and to make that iam bigger than the other person and to feel that iam the smartest and to prove it. Rule 1 - speak without any identity.... Not in the past nor in the future self of me just in the moment like a child. 

3. Being present ?????? 

Just listening attentively and doing every little thing with good attention but why ? - time is limited 😊. 

4. Leverage 

1. Specific knowledge 

2. Accountability 

What he actually tells ? 

Gain a specific knowledge that the world can't replace you. But how ? Find something that feels like play to you but it is an actual work to others they can't compete with you he tells that every human being is different from each other the trickier part is you have to find what gives the kick to you - doing the thing for its own sake not for any exchange behind it - achieving flow state easily and the work in itself becomes a meditation. 

Larger the game larger the amount of money we are gonna make i understood this. Define larger the game = more risk + more accountability + more specific knowledge. This concept is interesting but I have 00000 level of experience in this matter. Who am I ? Below average looking guy with below average level of physical strength with 2 friends who' s ideas and my ideas and thinking and the niche where I am interested and they are interested are completely different. 

What shall I do ? 

Be present and be happy get good dopamine hits 🎯 

1. Practice meditation 15 minutes each day why ? Iam happy while doing this and sense of loneliness is left in me why this happens ? A concentrated mind doesn't overthink and it is happy by noticing itself. 

2. Get free course certificates
