https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug13Post.mp4 I have very vague memories of my first understandings of money. I was a kid, and my younger sister was asking my mom why we couldn't buy stuff. My younger sister thought all you needed to do was write a check and the people at the store would give you stuff. I remember knowing that's not how stuff worked. There was a famous economist who lived back in the 1800's. He had a saying that it's not what you see, it's what you don't see. Meaning if you don't use very much brainpower, all you will see is A happening and B happening. But what you don't see is what happens later. Or what happened before. Physicists are famous for making some very crazy assumptions. But they do so to FIRST understand the most basic ideas, and then slowly get bigger and bigger. This is why in high school physics they talk about only two dimensions and no friction. Two dimensions means you don't have to worry about trigonometry. No friction means you don't have to worry about calculus. You can understand the basic concepts with simple algebra. But if you keep studying, things start to get VERY complicated. Most people stay way too long on the sidelines of life. Waiting for a guaranteed, step by step system. Somebody to show them how it's done. We've all be brainwashed by the horrors of mass education to fear failure. Most of our experiences with failure involves public ridicule. We get called on in school, give the wrong answer and feel terrible. Ever since birth, our brains are filled with false ideas that make us much better cogs in a huge machine. A lot of people tend to feel "victimized" for being lied to. There's a whole lot of different red pill ideas that describe this. The red pill is allegedly some heroic stance against a system of corruption and deceit. That you finally pull back the curtain and see how things REALLY are. This is only part of the story. The other part is there IS a reality out there. And whether you get in the game or not is YOUR choice. Sure, you may have had your head crammed with false ideas to keep you OUT of the game. But now what? If you are waiting for somebody to hold your hand and make it easy, you'll be waiting a long time. Since the dawn of time, the rules of life have been simple. You don't kill, you don't eat. You can only live so long by waiting. Get In The Game: http://mindpersuasion.com/watching-mind/
