Short update: day 2, no new amount “invested.” From my laptop, for short periods between household weekend duties, I’m still watching a few charts on Axiom and trying to multiply the remaining 0.07 SOL. It helps that I no longer have the apps installed on my phone, and so far I can resist accessing them through the browser.
During this short — but longer than I would have liked — “degen” period, I’ve noticed various patterns in different individuals, all fighting through clicks toward “financial independence.”
The pattern I’ll refer to today is that of the “beneficiaries.” Those who — in my opinion — “take the Lord’s name in vain,” hoping for wealth if God wills it — God’s willing, Inshallah, etc.
The second pattern comes from TikTok (I uninstalled that app from my phone yesterday, by the way), which promotes the idea of a “magnetic universe,” through various seemingly “successful” yet obscure and shallow individuals — “The Universe doesn’t care if you’re good or bad, it only cares whether you MANIFEST abundance or poverty!”
“It’s true!” you might be tempted to believe. Except it’s not.
The problem with both of these problems is this — they make no sense.
Without pretending to understand God’s (or the Universe’s) abstract plan — my mind, still resting after so many doses of cheap dopamine, cannot yet grasp the logic of such “philosophies.”
If you receive something easily, you’ll lose it just as easily, because you don’t understand why you received it. You didn’t put in any effort for that result. WHY WOULD YOU DESERVE IT, if you don’t even try to be good or do good? And even if you did, why would your reward come on another frequency?
You might think the interlocutor is a third party — and you’d be wrong.
Although none of this is new knowledge, I’ve fallen into the same trap again, and again, and again…
I’m still learning! And I’m trying to own my actions all the way through. The good ones!
Scurt update: ziua 2, nicio suma noua “investita”. Inca ma uit la unele chart-uri pe axiom si incerc sa multiplic cei 0.07 SOL ramasi. Ma ajuta faptul ca nu mai am aplicatiile instalate pe telefon, si ma pot abtine sa le accesez din browser.
In scurta dar mai lunga decat as fi vrut perioada de “degen”, am observat diverse tipare in diversi indivizi, in lupta cu click-urile catre “independenta financiara”.
Tiparul la care voi face referire astazi sunt “beneficiarii”. Cei care – cred eu – “folosesc numele Domnului in pustiu”, sperand la averi, daca vrea si Dumnezeu – God’s willing, Inshallah, etc.
Al doilea tipar observat vine de pe TikTok (am dezinstalat si aceasta aplicatie ieri de pe telefon btw) si promoveaza ideea de “univers magnetic”, prin diversi idivizi aparent “de succes”, dar obscuri si superficiali – “Universului nu-i pasa daca esti bun sau rau, ci doar daca MANIFESTI abundenta sau saracie!”.
“Asa este!”, ai fi tentat sa crezi. Doar ca nu este.
Problema cu cele doua probleme este urmatoarea – nu au sens!
Nevrand sa par ca as intelege planul abstract al Domnului (sau, al Universului) – mintea mea odihnita dupa atatea doze de dopamina ieftina inca nu poate intelege sensul acestor “filozofii”.
Daca vei primi usor, la fel de usor vei pierde, pentru ca nu intelegi de ce ai primit. Nu ai depus un efort pentru acel rezultat. DE CE L-AI MERITA, cand nici macar nu incerci sa fii bun / faci bine? Si daca ai face, de ce ai primi remuneratia pe alta frecventa?
Ai crede ca interlocutorul este o terta persoana, si nu ai avea dreptate.
Desi nu sunt cunostinte noi, am cazut in aceeasi capcana din nou, si din nou, si din nou…
Inca invat! Si incerc sa-mi asum si actiunea pana la capat.
