Unstoppable
I honestly canβt believe this is a real platform still π π π
Have to shake myself once in a while, to make sure this isnβt all a dream π
WDYM?
World is dreams, all the way down.
Is that quote from anywhere? π€
No.
Itβs just me making a cultural reference to a famous term about infinite regress.
I apologise, I have been over-educated.
Huh, World is dreams, all the way down. Hmm π€
Glad you noticed the profoundness.
You can go deep with that one, maybe knock on the door of solipsism?
I might need an explanation on that one π€
Also whatβs solipsism? π€
Solipsism is the realisation that you have no proof that anything actually exists other than your own mind.
βI think, therefore I amβ
All of your senses and perceptions are actually signals on the I/O surface of your mind, you canβt prove you actually have eyes, only the perception that you have eyes.
Ancient Greek philosophers first discussed this and later Descartes and Hobbes developed the ideas.
Nowadays solipsism is a powerful character mode that you can assume for doing things such as public speaking, competitive sports, or special forces operations.
Train your mind to be able to enter an alternate belief system where nothing actually exists other than you, from this state you can do unusually difficult things with supreme confidence and determination.
This is amazing π€―π€―π€―
I need to know everything about this, this is something Iβve always thought about, but never knew what it was called ππ
Well, you have to do a lot of proud thinking.
Understand that your primary belief system is something you host.
Understand that people can hold conflicting mutually exclusive beliefs and still operate normally.
Understand that you can too. Itβs possible for you to hold multiple entire discrete belief systems and to load them into your awareness like applications in an OS.
Itβs possible to understand that some belief systems are more optimal for some situations and that you can adopt the optimal belief system when required.
There are many scenarios where solipsism is the optimal belief system.
Once you understand how your mind hosts belief systems and you understand your primary plus some alternatives including solipsismβ¦
You can choose to believe that nothing is real, and that nothing exists. You can reduce the value of everything that is external to zero. You can believe there are zero consequences. There is only you.
Only you are real and all value is you. All else is nothing.
In this frame of mind you can do incredible things. You can act without hesitation or doubt, without fear or panic.
