How did your Journey to changing your thinking come about? What did you use/read as part of it?

For me it was the following:

1.The Road to Serfdom (Hayek)

2.Atlas Shrugged (Ayn Rand

3.The Fiat Standard

All throughout my brother asked me the right questions which don't really get asked. He challenged the basic premises I didn't know were up for debate. In turn he sparked a wave of curiosity that has only gained more size as it now travels freely, for I am hooked.

So you brother had already gone through this process?

I had some BTC so I decided I should learn a bit more about it and read The BTC Standard, it blew my mind! I read The Sovereign Individual, Layered Money, and Confessions of an Economic Hitman.

I identify degenerate behavior as fiat behavior, fiat food, fiat lifestyle, and have a clearer mind for myself. Also easier to predict what's coming when you understand base level economics.

Reading The BTC Standard was like planting a seed in my mind that grows and grows with awareness of how the world functions and the psychology of people's minds.

I like that mindset. In reality I slip into fiat behavior more than I should, yet what can I do? Its a predominantly fiat world, so it is difficult to completely abstain.

The bitcoin Standard was a pivotal one for me as well.

I hope you continue to find interest in your reading. If you ever need any suggestions, reach out.

The awareness of it will change your behavior naturally, and your awareness alone is giving you a massive head start over ignorant people and government overreach

Thanks, what are you reading now?
