I felt it when nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle said on his podcast he feels on another planet because he eats steak and eggs and is on a #Bitcoin standard while the rest of our society isn’t

Indeed! The following quote came in front of me in the last week or so, that I think is relatable in this context:

"Just because you think something is normal, does not mean it is healthy, does not mean it is right and does not mean it is good."

I was looking for a different quote to reply somewhere, but this came into picture instead. When I heard it first, I felt like, hmm, this is one quote that worth thinking about.

"Those who need leaders are not qualified to choose them."

Engaging in the #100pushups is like accepting the difference between the end goal and the journey.

If you join, and be honest about it, you accept the fact that you don't know when will it finish. This can mean, if you join, you join for the journey and not the end goal.

Smarty pants line:

In life, enjoying the journey matters, because you will spend 99% in it, and 1% reaching the goal. So be prepared.

Write me political decisions, actions that does not add up. That is or was wierd.

Example:

We had to be closed in our homes, do social distancing, wear facemasks in the first wave. Why not in later waves?

Rules:

Write a fitting comment -> get zapped ⚑️

Add reference to what you say -> extra zap ⚑️

Share this note and mention you did it in the comments -> get zapped ⚑️

Be creative -> get zapped ⚑️

Let the game begin! πŸ”₯

Damn, you are right. This is the free market of push ups. There are more push up viewers than doers, so the price dumps πŸ˜‚

Let's do it πŸ”₯🫑

Definitely! Spend on something useful instead. I guess, the more we speak about it, the worse it gets, if they don't care.

Satoshi's quote kind of starting to make sense for me:

"If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry."

You cannot help those who does not want to be helped.

Does our wellness depend on other people becoming bitcoiners? Do we ourselves need to convince everyone about bitcoin?

I was thinking in the past, that my "wellness" depends on other people's behaviour in a sense that we are all in the same system.

Not like my health, but like people are voting, doing things in the best of their ability, but it increases surveillance, control, things that effect me. Or at least things are not turning for the better. Therefore, I was thinking that I have to "help" them, so that it has a good outcome for both of us.

I thought, I can only buy and hodl bitcoin, because we need a critical mass so that the shops or places I use will accept it. And I shall talk about bitcoin to increase adoption, so that I can use bitcoin later.

But is it really true? Is this the way?

It sounds now a false narrative.

Why would the usage of bitcoin get increased if I talk about it? Why would they use it, if I can't even use it?

I realized that you need to be receptive to hear the things, and to be proactive to go after them. Usually my friends did not have enough motivation to follow up on these, or did not have the needs it can fulfill.

Therefore I realized, I shall not talk about bitcoin at all. It does not make sense. If people are asking about it, I will answer, but I won't start discussions about it. It is like, I don't talk about my vegetable peeler. I can peel potatoes with it, but it is not really a discussion topic.

Talking about it won't move me towards my goal. Rather I shall concentrate on doing things instead of talking about them. Concentrating on the things it allow me to do.

And if something is not available yet, I shall do it.

Do, do, do. Talk is cheap.

Anyway I think the best orange pilling is seeing others thrive because of bitcoin.
