It’s POSSIBLE I replied to you via Primal and that’s the issue…

I use nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q 99% of the time but in hopes that Primal suddenly loads my notifications again, I periodically check and when I do so I usually get NOSTR vibes and just start engaging, forgetting I’m in a particular client,

I use pretty popular Relays and also sync to Damus and Primal caches, I try to stick to WOT relays so maybe that’s where the delay happened šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Anyways…thanks for engaging and I look forward to connecting further my šŸ•šŸ¤£

The one I’m least worried about is the sprained wrist, I shouldn’t catch that 😁

The vomitting dog concerns me most,

The wife ā€˜ll be fine 🤣

Good Friday Morning Nostriches!

Up early again, that’s the way I like it—except the reasons being nurse to the other three members of the house šŸ¤§šŸ¤•šŸ¤¢

Not sure how much work I’ll get done today but I will try my best šŸ’Ŗ

I finished one project yesterday, revamping and setting our son up for this next season of what we term Purpose Path.

It involves 5 C’s that most would actually do well to adhere to. šŸ¤”

Instead of memorizing a bunch of rote facts, we encourage the following Mission:

I Pursue God-given purpose daily through the 5 C's:

• Be Curious about the past, present, and future; exploring ideas to gain knowledge, wisdom, and discernment.

• Create value for myself, family, and community by honing skills in creativity, contribution, and commerce.

• Connect meaningfully with God’s image bearers to build relationships and foster stewardship.

• Cultivate life and resiliency to strengthen body, mind, and spirit for adventure and leadership.

• Consume wisely to maintain balance and focus through my surroundings and inputs.

—so I can thrive as someone who leads dependent upon God, stewards resources and relationships entrusted to me, and manifests the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth through my actions.

=====

When push comes to shove (…yea we beat each other up in our house every now and again šŸ˜‰šŸ¤£) we exist to bring glory to God.

We find the 5 C’s help guide us in that mission.

Looks like an image straight out of a movie scene. Beautiful.

nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m I got an email from Cash App saying ā€œWe’ve all got money goals. Banking through Cash App can help you reach them.ā€

But I noticed Cash App wants me to connect my bank…

So I’m curious, is the idea for Cash App to become one’s bank without connecting to tradfi?

Reminds me of our South Carolina property. I think our pond is about 5 acres and we have a little more opening in the trees to view it...

LOL not comparing the size of our pond or anything HAHA just explaining for the picture :)

On NOSTR you can be whom ever you want to be...so long as I approve it 😔 🤣

This year, each quarter I’ve been leading a cohort of about 24 people each, through Faith Driven Investing.

It’s been a great opportunity to introduce these people to Bitcoin in a casual and non-pushy manner.

It just becomes a natural flow of the conversation and not an agenda item we camp on.

It comes up a few times over 6 weeks and usually by the second passing comment I make about Bitcoin, someone from the group messsges me asking to know more about Bitcoin!

Replying to Avatar gasull

A KYC'd internet will be uninteresting to me. Nobody will post anything controversial.

We will retreat to Nostr, darknets, E2EE chats, etc. A more obscure alt internet.

https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0h9ngmth5l4k6u0vphs3crv0txwz4mkkawncn9g2kgwhen8e6cfgzypgdjn7zmpvqc6ptqud9gtutrcc6yq9s2z96h9dr80hss4wl9qwkxd5xhfv

And a KYC'd internet might be the end of Web2.0.

In the sense of the beginning of the end of crowdsourced content, with our clicks data-mined as the new oil.

But we have the darknets and the distributed uncensorable web3.

The Web is dead. Long live the Web.

I just saw an ad for island .io yesterday, it was explained as the ā€œbrowser for businessā€

Since the workstation tool (browser) that I had used for years was recently sunset, the ad piqued my interest.

Well…it’s really an enterprise browser that IT gets to control…can’t do a single thing unless it’s permissioned.

I get it. Having been an IT Director in years past, security is important.

But as a society we’ve gone overboard and I think has less to do with increased risks and more to do with reduced self leadership.

We’ve abdicated our personal responsibilities to others.

This is why KYC is now the norm.

===

There’s a private entity I was recently appointed the leader of and due to its private structure, getting a bank account has become a nusaince (not impossible but frustrating).

Thankfully there are several work arounds now. Penultimately, Bitcoin.

Hitting bank account road blocks has given me empathy for the unbanked and the desire to talk about Bitcoin as the solution.

Good glorious morning leaders (and Nostriches)!

It started when I was young, getting up before first light to go hunting or fishing.

It continued in my teenage years when I had to be up early for Jazz Band rehearsal (first down beat was 05:30)…

It got a little wonky in my 20’s as the music world, or more aptly years of school before didn’t do a good job of preparing you for being a musician—sleep schedule wise—05:30 down beats became head on pillow cause you just finished your gig a couple hours before.

Now as an adult, some might say by age but not maturity šŸ¤” 🤣, I love waking before the sun comes up.

In one regard it’s like a mini challenge, can I beat the sun rising?

But truth be told, I find I get my best work done before the rest of the world wakes.

There is a silence, a stillness (except the bugs here in Florida), and an opportunity to work on myself before I pour into others.

That’s the real reason I think waking early is mission critical to leaders.

How can we possibly give from an empty cup? We can’t!

(For if we try, that’s called burnout…)

So…good morning moon and good glorious morning Leaders!

I know this won’t be popular on NOSTR but—I’m sorry…

How am I JUST now finding out about ā€œSend Laterā€ on iMessages?

Total relationship game changer for leaders!

I can message people when I’m thinking about it, and not be concerned about time zone conflicts or interrupting known meetings etc!

Just schedule the message 🤯

When NOSTR scheduled messages šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

#asknostr

Thanks for the use of code AND the #zap Every little bit helps us ALL move closer to our goals!

It truly is astonishing to me how many people don’t get it, or think ā€œit’s too expensiveā€ or ā€œwhat if it goes to zeroā€

I tend to find those people don’t truly have investor’s mind and might just be best off with their savings account…even if it in your mom šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø nostr:note1d6d35lj0e2826gydvnywgmj2hgt6am7uw9xtukz9nquf6cjrvf6qlnaz0s

It depends on how private one wants to be.

I use Brave browser on all my Apple products. This at least partially anonymizing and obscures me.

I have a paid BitDefender VPN which I use in public WiFi settings.

I found Orbot to be too slow for me. But it’s a good free option and honestly for the infrequent use of a vpn (due to apps I run don’t like vpn) I will probably stop paying for BitdefenderVPN premium and switch to Orbot at renewal time

(Might as well recapture and reallocate those funds to sats!)

Proud of myself...

I didn't pull a Trump and follow up with my wife on the Amazon purchase I just saw come through.

Sometimes, ok most of the time, it's best to just let the purchase be a purchase...

Not a hill worth bleeding or dying on!

nostr:npub16eumpaxffppswucpeysysrya9uk39j06d5gr2tsnf6cupq3f4jdqyft6jc and nostr:npub1uense4apn73tvh4u20tzlp6u72g4kdustzsm0k0sqy6yuwh5jxlsy97y76 I noticed a phenomenon with some raw unfiltered honey.

We were having sugar ant problems in the kitchen and cupboard so we moved the honey to the fridge.

Over the course of a few weeks the honey turned almost white-ish, similar to Manuka Honey.

Meanwhile the homemade honey cough syrup (honey, onion, and garlic) that we make with the same honey didn’t do this while in the fridge.

I wonder if you’ve ever seen that and is it as simple as the sugar Crystal bursting / freezing so to speak and so they won’t ever return to the dark honey color?

I also wonder if this is a trick some ā€œManukaā€ honey scammers use…just refrigerate or freeze regular honey to sell knockoff Manuka šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Yea.

I think now is optimal time to stack.

Once one is 25-50% of the way to a full Bitcoin standard, then maybe consider using a few percent towards the circular economy.

Meanwhile systems like Fold help this though. Put fiat on a pre-paid debit card and spend fiat whilst earning sats.

I think that makes more sense (for me at least) than forcing sat based purchased prematurely.
